PRODUCTION OF PETROLEUM
IN 1922 HIGHEST IN 10 YEARS

washington, Aug. 6.-Production OF
crude petroleum now is being carried
on throughout the United States mt
the highest rate attained in ten years.
The average output totals 44.4SS. 900
barrels month thus far during 1929.
according to reports JUS received by
the U. S, Geological Survey.
average production was 2O,fO4 600
barrels month during 1918.
The 1922 rate Of production Is thus
shown TO be approximately lib per
cent in advance of the pre-war stand
ard The output OF the present year is
expected 70 be the highest IN history.
Nearly 267,o00,00O barrels OF crude
oil Is the record OF the nations wells
for the first six months OF 1922, an In
crease OF S0.s1s.Doo barrels over tho
output of the same period last year.
Consumption OF crude oil is going
on at the rate OF 4s.50O 900 barrels a
month. This Is an increase OF sixteen
per cent over the consumption at the
beginning OF the year.
Despite the tremendous increase in
consumption, stocks OF crude peiro-
leum are reported as high. Reserves at
the end OF June totaled nearly 1885,
100000 barrels or supply sufficient
to last the nation ISL days, a year ago
the reserve supply was large enough
to last only ia days.
More than ] 500 new wells are being
sunk each month, the records show.
