KIND WORDS FOR
THE REVIEW

those who do not support the lux.
ury of carriage may take an eX-
hilaratlng run out over those dear
old hills.
The Schools toe are on the up,
but when 1t comes to schools I do
not think you are quite up with the
west-the east Is more hampered
by tradition and conservatism. The
OIL Review Is a notable exception,
i am glad to say.
I met Supt. Hess In Boston and
found him a very pleasant gentle
man, wide awake and up to date.
By d strange coincideut we were
assigned to the same fiat.
I see ir the last Review that mu-
sic has been cut out of your Course
of Study. 1t Is very amusing to
see to what extent the country dis
tricts dictate the policy of the city
schools. 1t looks like a case of the
tall wagging the dog. An indepen-
dent district seems to be the only
way out"

PETROLEUM SITUATION

In spite of the claims by the gov
eminent experts that the pro.
ductlon of petroleum Is increasing
1t Is plain fact that the production
of good illuminating oil Is not keep
ing up with the demand. The pipe
line figures for August indicate a
cut In stocks of more than 400, 900
barrels, while the field work report
ed shows $40 wells completed
during the month In the east
ern territory, which Is one of the
biggest records ever known. In
the Ohio, Indiana and adjacent
territory the number of wells fn-
ished Is nearly as great. This
vast number of new wells com.
pieted In the month has not been
effective In increasing the produc.
ton. On the contrary, the yield
of all the wells, old and new, Is not
so great as In previous days, while
the consumption of oil Is steadily
increasing.

California and Texas continue to
produce considerable oil, but II Is
not of the kind that can be refined
to make Illuminating fluid, or fur
nish the by.products which are
found In the oils of the Ohio valley.
Kentucky Is not giving much more
promise now than during any time
In the last 10 years. Pennsylvan.
Ia and West Virginia In the eight
months of the year have been
drilled as full of holes as a sieve
and with the same results-no
increase of the total yield. For
several years now the surplus that
had accumulated has been drawn
against steadily, each years end
seeing the amount In tanks above
ground declining. The present
production of high grade oil Is de-
cidedly less than the consumption.
How long this Is to last Is copjec-
ture, but there Is not a thing In
sight after all the efforts of the
wildcatter to indicate any change
of condition.
