Petroleum

Petroleum
 Professor Steele says: "The word pe- troleum is derived from petra, rock and oleum oil, and is probably the prod uce of distillation of organic matter, beneath the surface of the earth. This dstillation must have taken place al d much greater depth than that at which the oil Is now found; 1t would naturally rise through the Assures of the rocks, and gather into cavities above"
 Professor Danna says: Petroleum Is a result of the decomposition of vegeta ble substances. It proceeds from rocks of various ages. It is always found be- low the coal formation" Again he says: Petroleum, when purified for burning, is the kerosene of commerce. The wells are borings into an inferior part of the sub -carb oniferous formation; or into the upper part of the devonian. When the borings reach the oil level, the oil fro quently rises to the surface. Therefore, the oil lies in pools or cavities that are under pressure. Probably the oil came from some subjacent region of oil yield ing shales and limestones. The Hamil- ton shales contain no oil but do con- tain compounds of carbon and hydro gen; hence oil yielding; but not oil con- taining. These shales when heated yield liquid carbon hydrogen"
 Professor Winchell says: "Oil is not direct deposit from the sea: it IS com posed of compound of carbon, hydro gen and oxygen. Being lighter than water, its tendency is to rise
 Professor La Conte says: Tt is prob able that petroleum was formed by change of organic matter, somewhat similar to that which makes coal; but from different kinds of organic matter. Lane plants in fresh WI form coal. Marine plants in the prs a nee of salt water form petroleum, bitse en, etc"
 Gas
 The testimony and views of geologists and scientists have been summed up by Professor Mlnchell as follows: The es- cape or gas Is q geological phenomena. It's presence, it's volume, it's compost tion it's peTmanence are facts from which the geologist deduces past condi- tions in the worlds history. Its origin is similar to that of oil, and is the product of the dfstillation of shales."
