Every Week uncovers New Sources
Of Wealth Deposited BY Natural
Processes in the Bowels

New Orleans The tremendous
development in progress in Northern
Louisiana is changing the character
OF the state, which VIII no longer
measure it's wealth in bales of cotton,
sacks of rice and tons of sugar cane,
but 1t will be expressed rather in
barrels Of oil and cubic feet of natur-
al gas. Quiet agricultural regions
are rapidly being transmogrifed inio
industrial pandemoniums. Great mo-
tor trucks replace the numbering
farm wagon, derricks rise in place OF
silos,, and the soil is now being
drilled for its mineral wealth rath-
er than its vegetable riches.
The oil and gas industry is fast
outstripping every other activity In
the commonwealth, and every week
uncovers new sources of wealth, de-
posted by natural processes in the
bowels of the earth millions of years
ago, awaiting but the mechanical
genuius OF mankind to unlock the
treasure chambers.
Among the many and varied activi-
ties of the State Department of Con
servation, its mineral division is now
taking rank as of first importance,
and a largely increased appropriation
by the state is necessary for the
proper supervision by the department
of this great industry. An increased
force of conservation agents and as
sistants is imperative as only through
constant and intelligent supervision
may abuses OF the states resources
be prevented and its wealth preserv-
cd for posterity.
