During the past three months
$685. wells have been completed in
the above seven States. There is
no report of the number drilled in
Texas or California during the
same time, but it would probably
be safe to add $50 more, making
a total of 5435. In other words.
there will doubtless be over 21740
new wells completed in the Uni
ted States during the year 1904.
These figures afford good insight
as to the immensely of the oil in
dustry and the proportions it has
assumed within the past three or
four years. A few years ago
nearly all the oil produced in this
country came from the Pennsyl-
vania and Lima-Indiana regions
in the East. The oil fields west of
the Mississippi river are now an
important factor in the supply of

JULY WORK IN
SEVEN STATES

The July report Of operations in
the Kansas oil fields show 225
wells completed with 81 dry, and
a new production of 50S1 barrels.
The new wells averaged 26, barrels
each, which is much above the av-
erage of the Lima and Pennsyl-
vania wells. Compared with June
there was a decrease of 80 COM
pleted wells and 1884 barrels pro-
duction, with an increase of l dry
hole.
In June 264 wells were complet-
ed, with 80 of them dry, and the
new production was $685. barrels.
This was a gain over May Of 81
wells and 4O7 barrels production,
with decrease of Is dry holes.
For May the report showed that
227 wells were completed, while
the new production was 595S bar
rels, and the dry holes numbered
43. Compared with April there
was a gain of 7 completed wells
and II busters, with a loss Of 1876
barrels in the new production.
In the Kentucky oil fields 80
wells were completed in July; IA
were dry, and the new production
amounted to S95 barrels. This
was an increase over June OF 10
wells completed, 40 barrels pro-
duction and 4 dry holes. There
were 90 wells completed in June,
with 10 of them dry, and the new
production amounted to 4S5 bar
rels. This was a decline of 10
wells and 1419 barrels production,
with a gain of 6 dry holes. In the
districts connected with the pipe
lines 80 wells were completed in
May, the new production was l.
904 barrels, and there were s dus-
tiers. This was a gain over April
of 7 wells and 649 barrels produc-
ton. While considerably ahead
of the June figures, it will be OBJ
served that, while completing the
same number of wells as in May,
July is behind the record for May
by over 1000 barrels.
The summary of completed
wells, new production, etc, of the
principal oil producing States for
July will be found in the follow
