OIL and GAS


Zero weather can put crimp in
development work in the oil fields
and that is just what operators in the
eastern districts have to contend
with at this time. Frozen water and
gas lines are a serious annoyance and
very few lines are protected at drill
ing wells. The contractors life Is
not free from worries. During the
fall months his work was held rip on
account of shortage of water and
now he has the cold weather to con-
tend with and cause delays.

COOLEST WEATHER
That City and Suburbs Have
Endured This Season Reg
1 istered tuesday NIGHT.

II reports that come from all parts
of the city and suburban towns are
true Tuesday night was the coolest
night that this section Of West Vir-
ginia has endured this season.
1t started to get cold shortly after the
sun went down Tuesday afternoon
and the mercury continued to drop
until 1t had reached 25 degrees below
zero at an early hour Wednesday
morning.
Reports vary some but as thermom-
eters hung in different positions and
in different localities are more ex-
posed than others this is readily ac-
counted for. The lowest mark re-
ported was Is degrees below at the
South Penn shops at Industrial. Re-
ports from the West end Of the city
say that thermometers in that section
registered IS below at six o'clock
Wednesday morning. The reports
from the East End Of the city and
Broad Oaks show that 1t was 16 be-
low there. At the Fair Ground Addi-
ton it was Is below.
The cold weather continued well IN
to the day as at $3.50 o'clock We'd
nesday morning thermometers on
Main street in the business section of
