CRUDE PRICES
TO BE BASED
ON GRAVITY

TULSA, Okla. Nov. 22.-The
Prairie OIL and Gas company. the
largest purchaser Of crude oil in the
mid-continent field. today announced
that, effective today. IL would buy
crude in Kansas. Oklahoma and north
Texas on a gravity basis instead of
paying the one price OF $l,25 or more
a barrel as 1t has been doing for is
years.
The new method is expected by oil
authorities TO prove a stumbling
block to small renners. These inter.
ests buy oil at a stipulated premium
above tho posted price OF the Prairie
company and they have been paying
approximately the same prices as the
big purchaser, except in certain
higher grades where the Prairie
prices are slightly higher than those
being paid by refiners.
on Of 3s degrees. for instance. has
been purchased by the refners for 20
cents above the Prairie posted price
of SLIPS a barrel but under the new
schedule the Prairie pays $3.50 for
this grade.
About so per cent Of the entire pro.
duction Of the mid-continent field is
affected.
