the stnte auditor. I'm his annual report,
shows the names OF all oil pipe limo
companies operating trunk lines with

The growth Of the natural ,as in
/ d,lstry I'm the state has reached such
proportlons as has required the CON
struction OF many pipe lines OF large
carving capacity during the past
year. which fact renders It a hopeless
task TO compile the true \gures re-
lating to assessed value. The state
auditor. In his 1909 annual report,
does not segregate the gas companies
from the light and power companies.
and. as a consequence. the writir can
not stnte the assessed valuation of the
gas companies' properties at the pres.
ent time. but would approximate II
at $1,000 600.
The uniform pressure has demon
strated the staying Qualities Of Okla
homa gas wells, and has resulted I'm
bringing To Oklahoma many large In
dustrial plants The low cost to the
consumer has also appealed to the
manufacturer.
when II IS remembered that gaso-

every viewpoint the natural gas in

lizing our waste. or casing head gas.
the Introduction of this process may
prove 10 he the long sought solution
of a very depressing problem.
It is estimated that the trunk line
mileage OF the natural gas companies
OF the State is 700.
The oil and gas inspector reports
a list of nine re1neries in the state.
all OF which. he saws. appear TO be
doing prosperous business.
These reRnerlcs were handling last
June about $3.50 barrels OF crude pet

Texas Company was then constructing
a refinery at Tulsa, 10 handle 5000
barrels per day. There are, at this
