Tho drain on the Kansas gas field
by domestic lines and the enormous
consumption of factories has proved
more than the local fields could
stand and the fuel problem has been
the most serious one confronting
cement manufacturers. The cement
industry Is one of the main spolfos
IN the wheel OF industry in the south
west and the feur that the fuel sup
ply would give out, as It has shown
q tendency TO do, has been tho cause
OF much apprehension lest some OF
the big plants should shut down.
Some Of the factories have found
the gas supply insufficient already and

The next line to the Oklahoma

Dolores, Colo, Dec 24-Results OF
the development Of the new oil fields
along the san Juan River IN South

district Is rapidly becoming a big

Gus string Of well-drillng machinery

great numbers.
The discoveries so far made dem
onstrate the existence Of an oil-pro-
ducing area 100 miles long and about
fifty miles wide, two-thirds of the
area being in San Juan County, Utah.
and the remainder In Montezuma
county Colo. At present the most
accessible route into and out Of the
district Is by the way Of Dolores and
other points on the Rio Grande South
ern Railway in Colorado, while the
center of activity seems TO be Bluff

~line.
While the existence Of oil In this To-
oallty has been known for many
