HOUSTON. Tex, Feb. 27.--(Spe-
claL) The Fuel OIL Journal of Hous-
ton In lis ccurrcnt iseuo says.
Another pipe line providing an out
lot for Oklahoma oil to tho Gulf OF
Mexico probab. w>.l be built this
year. H. G. stewart, general super
inlcndcnt OF TN Magnolia Petroleum
company of Texas, recently complet-
ed preliminary inspection OF the ter
rltory between the Gushing field and
the northern division Of the COM
pany's S-lnch line which now extends
from Electra TO Beaumont and Sa-
blne, n deep water port on the gulf
II is understood that tho line will go
IN southweHerly direction from
Gushing, passing through oklahoma
city and traVersing wide eXpanse OF
country that may some day develop
important oil production, including
Payne, Lincoln, oklahoma and Cleve-
land counties and perhaps McClain,
Garvin, stephens and jefferson coun-
ties
Connections win be probably made
with the present S-inch line at or
near Alvord the first station below
electra and "a miles from that field.
The prospective route gone over byI
Mr. Stewart measures 2ll to 220I
miles by railroad
The Magnolia company's line from
Electra to Beaumont is ii9 miles
long while the Electra field is now
producing more oil than ever before,
averaging better than 1900 barrels
a day, the portion which the Magno-
liza company is able TO purchase per-
hars half Of the output. IS not suf-
ficent 10 meet the requirements of
It's refineries at Corsicana and Beau
mont The company has been com
PEELED TO ship in some Caddo crude
by tank cars and has also purchased
large quantities OF oklahoma crude
from the companies having pipe lines
from oklahoma to the Guf coast
Since the completion OF its S-inch
line last summer, the Magnolia com
pany has been steadily drawing on
its stock at Electra, In the absence
OF a greatly increased production in
North Texas there appears to be only
more oil and that is a line to tap
the oklahoma field. The Texas Is
now handling about 10000 barrels
day Tts capacity ca neasily be In
creased to that quantity. The Okla
homa line viii cost a million and
half or two million dollars. With all
appurtenanccs it will be the means
OF doubling the company's oil supply
and Will enable I TO enlarge It's re-
fined output and add to its business
proportionat/y. With an investment
OF about $1,000 in all branches of the
industry IN Texas the expenditure by
the Magnolia people OF another mil
lion or two WI be more than Justi-
fed considering the fact that this
money I'm A pipe line will be the
means Of doubling It's receipts OF
crude \ fourth trunk line into the
oklahoma field will be welcomed byI
producers and by all who are in any
way allied with the producing end of
the business. With four large pur-
chasing companies in the field the !
future Of ,he industry will look ex-
ceedine'N rosy. oklahoma City and
the SoutlW cStern part of the state
also will benefit by the new line
