With 200 feet of e oil in the Imttoui of the hole, accompanied iy a flow of gas that keeps the tools bouncing and at one time sent the heavy drilling stem hurling up the well a hundred and fif-t-v feet, the situation at the Frank Shafer No. 1 discovery well on the Cane Creek dome is decidedly interesting tonight. Indications are interpreted as meaning that a highly saturated sand is only a few feet distant. The oil so far obtained has come from a black, sandy shale, forty feet of which has been cut. This formation is caving badly and tonight there arc feet of cava hundred and sixty-fiv- e ings in the hole. The oil forcing its way up through the ravings, has risen to a height of two hundred feet. No less interesting is the John IL Shafer No. 1 well on the Shafer dome, about five miles southwest of the Cane Creek pioneer lest. This well tonight is at a depth of 2000 fc- - and ia cutting a rich, black, petroliferous flow of shale, which is giving pff wet gas. Comparison of the logs of the wells indicates that the John JL Shafer is within a hundred and fifty feet of the horizon encountered at 2028 feet Si the Caoe Creek well, and which blew in as a gusher last December and for weeks flqwed by heads before it could he brought under control. With both wells approaching satcS which are expected t produce commercially, interest among the many oil men here is at fever heat. It is confidently predicted that another wuck of drilling should place the John II. Shafer well in the producing column and should definitely prove the existence of another highly producing in the Frank Shafer well on Creek dome, which structure is already classed as proved ns a re mli of the sensational performance of (lie first sand tapped at 2028 feet last December. Operations at the Frank Shafer well on Cane Creek were delayed yesterday and today on account of the breakdown of the gasoline engine that furnishes power. This was repaired and this afternoon the tools and the bailer were run into the hole, reaching feet about a hundred Rnd sixty-fiv- e off the bottom. The cavings will be cleaned nut and if possible a few more feet of hole will be drilled before the four and casing is run. A string of casing is now en route to Moab from the Utah Oil Refining companys warehouse at Wilmington, and will ho run to control the gas pressure and prevent the continuous sloughing of the open hol of which there is about four hundred feet The Frank Shafer well, prior to ca countering the oil and gaa now in evi dcnce, had been drilling in salt for a hundred and eight feet, from 3515 to 3623 feet, when it encountered a sandy shale which made a considerThe able showing of oil and drilling conitnucd in this shale for five feet, to 3628 feet, when work was stopped Friday night Upon resunqv high-grad- i lioi-izo- three-quartc- ra g-t- s THEYRE LIMITED i 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 Mo..

With their annual district convention leu than a week off Utah and Idaho Kiwanians, who meet in Logan on August 27th and 28th, are displaying considerable interest in the election of district governor and selection of a convention city for next year. This year in keeping with an established custom. in the o district a Utah man will he chosen for tho' governorship, and the same rule demands that the convention city be in Idaho. The position of governor and the place of convening both alternate between the two states in such a manner that when an Idaho man holds the highest district office the annual meeting is held in a Utah city, and vice versa. Four Utah Kiwanians are being mentioned to succeed J. B. Cowen of Caldwell, Ida., whose term expires with the coming session, in reports reaching Alfred M. Durham, executive secretary in t barge of the convention plans. Prominent among the four is II. B. Avon of Canyon, who is completing a term as lieutenant governor. The other three being put forward by their friends arq Charles N. Fehr, commissioner of Salt Lake City, Walter II. Adams of Provo and Oliver K. Clay of Price. The Idaho towns expW',rt to make the strongest bids for the convention are Pcyette, Iilnho Falls anil Blackfoot. Payette Kiwanians have announced their intention of coming to Logan prepared to win. Reservations already on file for the convention reach a total of nearly four hundred and the local elub is preparing to play the part of host to one of the largest gatherings ever held in (lie district.
