Petroleum.


Professor W W Evans, of Marietta College
who understands the whole science of the pc
tro!eum business, gives the following hints for
those who seek oil deposits:
The question in regard to the depth at which
oil may be found, or. rs the idea is popularity ex-
pressed, whether it be deep or shallow oil, is OF
great practical importance. Experience has dem
onstrated that. general fact, supplies Of pc
troleum found at depth of two or three hun
dred feet or more. are much more lasting than
those found at less depth. Wells of even less
than hundred feet often give good promise al
first but they are speedily exhausted
Oil coming to the surface in bulk, so often
considered an index of valuable territory, is
really nothing more than proof of shallow oil
On some parts of Hughes river and Duck creek,
aud other places. where petroleum used to be
collected in quarts and even in barrels, as il is
sued from between the surface rocks or oozed up
from the sand, expeFi mehts 10 boreing have re-
suited in finding only small collections at slight
depths. The petroleum has worked its way
through open assures to the upper strata, and is
rapidly undergoing the process Of exhaustion.
La such places il is nothing uncommon to find
collections of asphsltum, the more volatile por-
tons having escaped by evaporation, while the
grosser portions remain.
The most reliable surface indication that the
source oi tue OIL IL ueep, ~ lts appeatance IN Il
thin volatile scum on mineral springs. For ex.
ample: between the Kanawha, along the line
connecting the two burning springs. there are in
Vulnerable oil and gas springs, in which the
analysis of the water reveals the existence of va
rious minerals, such as common salt, carbonate
of iron. carbonate of soda suphate Of potash,
sulphuretted hydrogen, etc. On the common
springs of pure water, whose source is near the
surface, oil is not found in this region. Itcomes
up through cracks in the strata. from the depths
where the water has gathered its mineral con
tents. The high temperature of these oil springs,
compared with that of the ordinary springs, is
another indication OF deep source These signs
are always found in the best oil regions"
