TIE PETROLEEN NARKET.

The Lower Southwest Is regarded more favorably
than ever by petroleum operators at present. A
hslfscore Of good wells drilled during the
week and production has increased by fully 800
barrels day. the aggregate daily production now
being fully 2.300 barrels. The efforts OF the drill
during the week not only increased the production
but also materially extended the producing area
The Marion and Wetze counties development Is
fully five miles in length and about mile IN width
and furnishes better average production than any
other developed territory in the eastern fields. 1t
looks > IL Harrison and Doddridge counties
would also be added to this great field. There are
at least fifty wells in the Gordon sand
district and II these turn fav0rably they will
prove the great richness of this territory.
Interest stiIl centres largely in the Keener sand
pool in Ritchie County. The Three Joes oil well
which started gusher at the rate 900
barrels day has declined TO 600 barrels, but even
at this rate II Is regarded a wonderful producer
Many wells now being drilled In this section
and the territory is divided into small blocks
many operators work. The county has a
larger number Of wells drilling of experimental
nature than any other county In the Lower South
west. and il IS confidently believed that exten-
sive pool has been found at this section number
or "wildcatters" also work far in advance Of
any developments Throughout the rest of the
Southwest territory developments have been of a
normal character. and the wells have been only
moderate where they were not busters In the Ohio
section OF the field nothing unusual has occurred,
although some fairly good wells have rewarded the
