Subject.
In 1856 the first oil well in the
world was drilled in Pennsylvania
and that small hole in the ground
which might almost be covered by 4
mans hand, was the source from
which has flowed a stream so rich
that from it has been amdssed the
most stupendous fortunes the world
has ever known.
West Virginia, which is merely a
chip off the old block, with an ac-
quired prefix, has been turning her
oil and gas into gold for years,
while Virginia, the mother State, in
the same geological system, the Apa-
lachian, having the same formations
has sat supinely down and let a
scrubby growth of pines gradually
cover her fair face like an unkept
beard" hiding the lines and indica-
tions of the riches beneath the sur
face.
In a letter bearing the date Of
March oath, 1910, Mr. Thomas L.
Watson. State Geologist. states that
up to the present time the common
wealth~-had made no survey of her
coal fields. nor for oil or gas, which
seems almost incredible. Cor oil and
gas are found in certain rocks and
sands.
Every person coming here from
sections where oil and gas are pro-
duced is struck by indications of
their presence, indications hard to
define. but recognizable to the ac-
customed eye.
The striking of oil or gas means
The beginning Of prosperity in any
