GREAT VALUES IN NATURAL GAS.
More than 500 Billion Cubic Feet Pro-
duced in 1911.

Seventy.four million dollars was the
value of the natural gas produced in
this country in 1911. While there was
decrease in quantity from the output
OF 1910. the figures for the two years
being 500, 1855 100000 and sos .353, 2M :
600 cubic fyet, the value of the produc-
tion in 1911 was nearly four million dol
lars greater than that of 1910, a gain
of 4.76 per cent. The increase in de-
mand for natural gas from consumers of
all kinds, according to David 7. Day, of
the United States Geological Survey, in
a report on the production OF natural
gas in 1911, just published by the Sur.
vey, makes the supply of gas a mat
ter of growing seriousness Beyond ques-
tion the natural gas that can be furnish
ed in many Of the fields of the United
States is simply a function OF the cap
ital invested in natural-gas lines, and es-
pecally in power plants for pumping the
gas But the safety Of such large in
vestments decreases in proportion a.
the unsatisfied demand becomes indica
tive of failing supply.
In Ohio and Indiana the yield has
diminished so rapidly as TO stop the in
vestment of the further capital neces-
sary to increase production. One inn
portant feature bearing on the produc-
tion of natural gas during the year 1911
was the excessive demand for it in Kan
sas City. Mo. This caused board of
public utilities to create commission
headed by Erasmus Haworth. state geol-
ogist of Kansas. to investigate the prob
able duration of the supply OF gas to
Kansas City. In his report Mr.. Ha-
worth expresses the opinion that a sup
ply of natural gas sufficient for the
needs of the city is not possible for long |
er than three OF four years.
