Oil Producers
Increase Output
By 100000 Bbls.
Discovery of Gusher Wells
in Kansas Stimulates
Drilling

Production of crude petroleum in tho
so-called mid-continental field, includ-
ing the light oil fields of Louisiana and
the North Texas district, has increased
over 100000 barrels daily, according to
THE Oil City Derrick" A year ago
the estimated production OF petroleum
in this field was $4,000 barrels day.
At the present time the production
from the same pools is $4,000 bar
rels a day
Discussing the increased production,
"The Derrick" says:
AT the close of 1916 the production
of the fields mentioned was 100000 bar
rels, and it Auctuated about that figure,
and quite often below it, until the lat
ter part OF April. Then il gradually
gained until for the next two months it
averaged about 100000 barrels, due to
the work in Kansas, aided by some in
crease in the Texas Panhandle. In the
middle Of July the production passed
above 100000 barrels daily, and during
that month and August held close to
a daily average of 900 barrels. The
increase during the last three weeks
has been rapid, caused BY the gusher
wells in Kansas. as we'll as good pro-
ducers In all the pools of Oklahoma.
The fields OF Louisiana, Texas and
Healdtop have about held their own,
except for slight increase in the Pan
handle section.
"The added output of 100000 barrels
each day is an important factor in the
industry at this time. It is coincident
with the appeal of A. c. Bedford, presi-
dent Of the Standard Oil Company Of
New Jersey and chairman Of the Petro-
leum Committee of the National De-
fence Committee. to the producers that
greater efforts should be made TO carry
out the promises made by the commit
tee to the government that there should
be no lack Of oil for the needs OF the
army and navy.
"The increase was not wholly due to
extra efforts made. but the element
Of luck favored the discovery of the
rich pool in Kansas which has given
three great wells and promises to
maintain large production for many
months. The wells are reported to be
holding up nicely, and the prospects
are bright for broad extension. Of the
productive area.
at always follows that the discov-
cry Of such gusher wells stimulates
more work on the part of the wildcat
operators. They are excited with the
thought Of finding other pools equally
rich. and are inclined 70 take greater
chances than when the fields are dull.
The talk Of testing the oil belt line
across Kansas 20 Nebrasks will prob
ably now be followed by actual work,
and considerable territory be opened
or condemned.
at is fortunate that the increase
comes at a time when the world de-
mands all that the producers can sup
ply. This checks the fear of an over
production. or 2 flooding of the market.
The added output scarcely balances the
consumptive demand"
