investigations have been made in
other sections.
In this connection Mr.. Lees says
that the limestone about Chicago Is
full of oil and that oil experts have
estimated that there are millions of
barrels of oil in the formations there.
However, the rock is hard and the oil
doesn't concentrate into deposits, and
there is nothing TO indicate that it
ever will. -..f
The state geological department is
making a thorough investigation OF
the adaptability of the rock found in
the different sections of the state for
road and building work. Mr.. Lees
took samples from the different quar-
ries here and also from the several
stratas of rock exposed in the bluffs
and a report will be maze by his de-
partment showing the character OF
the formations, and what the rock
from the several quarries and stratus
is best adapted for.
