ELECTRIC OIL FINDER
NOT A WITCH STICK
Inventor Of Now Instrument ]
Operating in Vicinity Of
Burkburnett Field.

Crude petroleum may now be
located by means of an electrical
device, no matter how far beneath
the earth's surface the product
may be. This has been demon
strated during the past few weeks,
we learn from dispatch from
C0rsicana, Tex, to The Manufac-
turers' Record (Baltimore), in the
shallow field near that place, and
Eugene Elkins, the inventor of the
instrument, has gone to the out
lying district around Burkburnett
to make further practical tests of
the remarkable invention. Says the
paper Just named:
The oil industry may be revolu-
tiOnized If Oil-pools can be located
by means OF the instrument. The
principle upon which it works is
described by Mr.. Elkins as follows:
The system consists of forming an
electrical circuit through the earth
by dropping an insulated wire to
the bottom of q dry water-hole,
valley. or indentation, placing q
series of batteries on top OF the
earth. to the positive pole OF which
is attached land wire. The land
wire is then taken out over the
field in any direction and for any
distance, and all of the intermedi-
ate territory combed thoroughly
with electric current flowing from
the anOde or positive pole to the
cathode or negative pole. The
earth being simply huge inverted
magnate. the electric currents
:. travel from one to the other of the
charged poles by q path Of least re-
sistance, much as does the return
current of the telegraph system
through its ground wires to the
point of origin. That system also
proves the principle of earth con.
ductivity of electricity is absolute
ly correct. Oil and its constituent
components being the only miner
ais in the earth through which
electricity cannot pass, it therefore
follows that an oil-pool in the path
of the electric currents mentioned
will offer great resistance to the
said currents, forcing them to 60
around the pool, and also resulting
in an appreciable loss of current
through lectrolysis. both of these
factors Registering these resistances
on an extremely delicate meter in
the hands Of the operator, on the
surface OF the earth" Literary

bill making it compulsory to teach
all subjects in public and private

Representative Johnson of Kooten-
al led the fight against the county

would remove county division meas
ures from the legislature and place
them in the hands of the people i'm

pledged to his constituents against
dividing counties and contended gen
eral enabling act would permit many
new counties to be created.
