consumed approximately 100000. GoO
barrels OF crude oil. The production
was only $4,000. 0O0. The difference
between these two amounts had TO be
drawn from the reserve supply and
from other oil producing countries.
In 1914, 500,000.000 barrels Of crude
oil were produced From 1914 to 1918
great effort was thrust forward on
the part of the producers to increase
Of $4,000 barrels per year. a mere drop
in the bucket Of consumption.
The principal reason for the inabil-
ity for this small increase is the lack
Of fields. With Texas fields coming
into the lime light as the greatest
in the world it is evident how very
important Texas VIII become to the
world and how the development Of
Texas fields is imperativeIy neces-
sare
Today there is only three months
supply OF crude oil in reserve. This
reserve supply amounts to 123. 100000
barrels and large part Of this is a
heavy grade Of oil suitable only for
fuel purposes. In the year 1915 there
were 190, 1000 barrels in reserve
Those who understand the need for
oil in the country. very wei know
that the present reserve is too small
and that great effort should be put
forward to increase the supply TO
point where the stability Of industry
is assured.

81 PERCENT OF TEXAS OIL

Thirty-seven and one-fourth percent
OF all the wells completed in the west

tory. 400 wells have been completed in
the southern district, not including
the Wichita Falls district OF this

duction Of $4,000 barrels daily
Forty OF the competitions, or 10 per-
cent are gas wells and I'll or 81 81
percent are dry holes. The percent OF
producing wells are considered Unusu-

the activity extends over a period or
several years and covers thousands or
square miles OF wildcat territory The

Statistics show that a little over
five percent Of producers from wildcat

oil SUPPLY IS
BELOW AVERAGE
New Wells In Texas Will
Have Little Influence On
Price.

Dallas. Tex, Feb. 24-While Texas
may become the largest oil field in
the world, there is no fear. according
to statistics, that its production can
become so great as TO hinder the
price of oil or to become greater than
the average consumption.
At the present time the country is
merely getting its present consump-
ton Of oil At the beginning Of the
war there were large reserve sup
plies stored, but these have been to-
folly depleted and now it is a matter
Of getting enough production TO get
q reserve supply on hand before ex-
porting begins and reaches its pre-
war state, for. after that, foreign
countries will begin to draw on the
oil supply OF the United States and
the reserve supply will be at a stand
still until this country has placed mil
lions OF barrels abroad.
