MAKES FOR ACTIVITY
Uhe central Ohio field for the short
naonth sof the year ,shews decrease
while in new work there is nice in
crease and that in the face of some
of the smost strenuous weather expe-
rienced for a number of years. With
good weather there should be quite an
increase in development work in 'ev-
ery county in the Ohio field, and test
work will be done in counties on the
teuter edges, in hopes of bringing
them into the aoil and gas-a area. Pres
ent indications are that some very
work will be done to the
south and close up to the Ohio River,
as that taaritory has been overlooked
for years, hut with exceptionally
high prices prevailing for crude oil
the average person will make an at
tempt to find the fluid. The scarcity
of. natural gas will bring about q
further attempt to increase the area
of the field, in hopes of, gatting.a new
field to develop for the next winters
supply.
During February 81 wells were
completed in the Central Ohio field,
of which 81 ywere4oil wells, witha new
production .of 1;442 barrels, IL We're
dry hoies and ll2 We're gas wells.
When compared with the January
figures, this is a decrease of 70 in
wells, s304 barrels in new
yproduction, six less dry holes and
seven nss tgas wells, while there was
AN incHease of ,one in, oil wells. In
new werk under way there is a very
healthy increase. The unlose, of Feb
zuary shows 55.Isgs up and 116 wells
drilling against 48 rigs up and 104
wells drilling at The, close Of January,
an incHease of seven in rigs up .and
IL moRe drilling wells, cor a net in
'erease of new work in. favor, of Feb
