OIL and Gas.

Development work In all sections OF
the Eastern fields Is increasing. This
Is contrary to the usual rule for so
late In the year. In past years 1t has
been the custom to slow down field
work as winter approached and have
as little work as possible under way
when bad weather set In. The high
market and demand for high grade
crude inspires operators TO prepare
for continuance OF operations during
the winter months. and the indications
are favorable for very enegetic de-
velopment work through all Of the
winter months. Formerly operators
confined their activities to territory
that could furnish large wells or pro-
ducers above the average in size. The
high price Of crude has brought about
a change an operators are preparing
TO continue. development work in light
territory. The weather conditions dur
Ing the fall months has been excep-
tionally good for getting machinery
and supplies to the fields and the larg.
or operating companies have not been
slow to take advantage OF the good
roads.
