SCARCITY OF OIL SPURS
TO MORE WE'LL DIGGING

A great activity in Wyoming oil
fields has recently gathered such
momentum that the news of 1t gets
large sections of the Sunday news
papers, and the principal reason is
that oil is in demand as never be-
fore. California, an oil producing
state, is using 10000 barrels more
oil than it produces. War needs in
clude oil, and more Oil is needed
everywhere than before, because of
the increasing use of automobiles
and machinery. And so the grand
rush into Wyoming.
The following article is cut from
the Salt Lake neutrality-suspicious.:
According to a Denver journal,
some conception of the possibilities
of Wyoming as an oil producer may
be obtained when it is stated that
there are IS proved fields IN the state
the majority of which are in Natrona
and Fremont counties. But scattered
thruout the state are many other To-
calities that biologists have reported
upon favorably. These improved por-
lions are either being prospected now
or will be during the coming sum-
mer; and the list of producing fields,
las consequence, should be swelled
appreciably Years ago enormous
fortunes were made in the Pennsyl-
vania oil fields; but never in the his
tory of the country have there been
such opportunities as exist today for
the quick acquiring of large wealth
by investors in oil undertakings To
neglect these exceptional chances
would show poor business sense be-
sides being contrary to the tendencies
of human nature. In every oil-bear-
ing area a forest of derricks has
gone up, and drilling is progressing
at rate that promises a greatly aug
mented supply of the commercial
product. Yet no matter how volum-
nous the production may become, it
will be eagerly absorbed by the gov
eminent, by foreign purchasers and
by domestic consumers. While it is
true that some thousands of new oil
companies have been organized dur
ing the past two years, there is
plenty Of elbow room still available
and Astounding prospects for success.
Oil has attained a rank which may
aptly be said to equal that of gold
the dignifield aristocrat of metals.

mand."
