night. This company has made con-
tracts to furnish oil in Hamilton, o.,
for two years at 80 cents a barrel. The
amount of this oil that is being pro-
duced in Ohio is much greater than
the public generally supposes.
The total output of the wells is not
under 1000, 900 a month. When the
actual gauges show a less production
1t is when the large wells are shut in
and are not allowed To yield up their
full capacity. This is the case at this
time, owing TO the inability of the pipe
lines TO handle all the oil that could
be produced. The Standard Oil COM
pany pays the producers Is cents a
barrel for the oil at the wells. and the
fact that they have now 5000, 900 bar
rels in tanks in the region is evidence
that they believe in its future. The
tanks in which the oil is stored are
taken down and removed from the
Pennsylvania fields where so much
tankage is no longer needed. The oil
is now being used for fuel purposes in
twelve states and territories, and it is
not unlikely 10 ultimately take the
place of coal for manufacturing pur-
poses, except in the vicinity of coal
mines. -Globe-D Democrat.

u Is Less Troublesome and Much Cheaper
Than Coal.
An editorial in a recent issue of a
Cincinnati paper urges the manufact-
urers OF Cincinnati 10 consider the
question Of using crude petroleum as
fuel. Investigation shows that Gin.
clnnati is behind many other cities in
the use Of the liquid fuel which is
found in such abundance in Ohio and
within such easy access of that CITY.
Cleveland manufactures and uses
the Lima oil extensively as fuel, and
Is even experimenting with good re.
suits IN the direction of converting il
into a gas for fuel purposes. Chicago
Is using 10000 barrels a day of the
new fuel. Even the town Of Hamil.
ton, o., has made more progress in
this direction than Cincinnati. A
gentleman just returned from Hamil-
ton says the number Of oil cars he saw
ON the sidings led him to make some
investigations. He found n large
flour mill which is running three 100
horse power boilers with Lima oil as
fuel, These boilers required nine
tons Of coal for a t%wenty-four hours
run, al - a ton, making SIS a day.

10 furnish one third more power than
the coal, with less wear audtcar ON the
boilers. At other factories in Uamil.
ton boilers are run with gas made
from Lima oil.
Nearly every town Of any conse-
quence In Ohio uses more or less Lima
oil as fuel. In Harrisburg, Pa. a firm
that has q contract with the govern.
ment for furnishing steel for steel
clad ships uses gas from Lima oil for
melting steel billee. This firm states
that thcy are able 10 melt a ton Of
