The WORKERS. in Petroleum.

The petroleum industry gives en-
pioyment to large body of laborers.
In 1880. according to the census report,
there we're 2,111 skilled and S,784 un-
skilled workmen engaged in producing
oil, and 1860 persons in refining it.
There are about 10000 wells in the en-
tire oil field, but many of them are
small bumpers, and one hand can at
tend to several of them. After the com
pletion of the derrick and the arrival
of engine and tools, four men are re-
CURED to drill we'll. These men re-
ceive $3.50 per day. The common
well-tenders, pipe-men, and the like,
receive $50 per month, or from $l.75
to 50 per day. Coopers and carpenter
get about $3.50. In refneries skilled
laborers receive SO per day, and still
men, or common workmen, get about
