DEVELOPMENT
OF TRI-STATE
Latest Reports Of Operations in
West Virginia, PennSyI-
Vania and Ohio.

Development work in the eastern
fields was very generally suspended on
account Of the observance OF the
Fourth. Consequently very few COM
pletions were reported. Development
work in all sections is steadily in
creasng and there is large amount
OF test work under way and starting.
Now that the last half Of the year
has only begun it is to be hoped that
the efforts to find new producing ter
ritory will prove more fruitful than
the first half. A retrospective view
fails to show any new pools OF appre-
cable dimensions developed in the
eastern fields. Moreover. the list OF
dry holes is increasing from month to
month
Near Zinnie, Greenbrier district,
Doddridge county, W. Va, Ernest Ran
dolph drilled second test on the
Walter Ross farm through the Big
Injun sand and developed a good
gasser. In the same locality the Hope
Natural Gas Company is due in the
sand at a test on the Howard Marks
farm. In the same district the Way
land Oil and Gas Company has the rig
completed for another test on the W.
B. Stuttler farm.
Slowing Down on Dents Run.
Since the two wells came in dry in
the 3O-foot development on Denis Run,
NonnirgtOn district, Marion county,
operators are not in so much OF a
hurry to start new work, The schedule
of operations that had been mapped
out shortly after the gusher came in
on the Higginbotham farm. For a
short time it looked as though there
would be dozen or more wells
started at once,
In Union district, Clay county, there
is considerable new work starting.
Operators in this district are war
ranted In drilling for light wells. The
average size is about five barrels, but
the casInghead gas yields large per-
centage OF gasoline and It is this that
inspires development work. The Chal-
mers OIL and Gas Company is getting
ready to start considerable new work
in this district. This company's Sec
ond test on the Connell heirs farm is
due in the Big Injun sand, The Sam
pIes Oil Company is also due in the

spokesman that Secretary Redheld.
That gentleman, in declaring that
the war is cutting very small figure
in in our industrial and commercial
activity, attempts to prove too much.
"The war exports do not constitute
more than twenty-five per cent Of
our present exports" says Mr. Red
field, land our shipments to South
America, where there is no war,
have doubled in the last two years. ="
Does the head Of the department
Of commerce expect us to believe that
the large increase of exports to South
America is not largely result of the
war? Or that We shall not have a
hard fight to retain our increased
trade there as soon as Germany, Eng
land and France are free to resume
business abroad? Or that the ad-
ministration can claim any credit
for that increased trade?
The utterance Of Secretary Red
field gives emphasis 10 the recent re-
marks of Uncle Joe Cannon as to the
small capacity of most OF the men
that President Wilson has gathered
around him.
