JAPANESE OIL.

"While every state in Europe tand even
some in other continents) has been work.
ed up into the petrol high fever during
the last six months, it may come to some
as a surprise to hear that the Caucasus is
not the only place still open for explota-
tion," says the Petroleum Times of
London. "And it comes also to be under
stood why the japanese, usually so keen
in getting to work where their partlcu-
lar interests are concerned, have not
worried about the oil fields of America
or Europe. They have all they want,
and more, without going SO far atleld.
And that is why they have stuck so te-

zone of the engineers, who hos been
six years at the work, says that the is
land can supply 10, 000 600 tons of naph-
tina per annum-practcally equal to the
resources of the Royal Dutch Company.
The island has a long, narrow fishlike
shape, with strong mountain ridge
down the center. The oil wells at pres
ent worked are in three different regions
of the island, one at the extreme north
and the other two to the south. AT one
of the southern fields, the Chivs, there are
five large lakes of naphths, one being
nearly $50 yards wide by nearly 500
yards long.
SIN the north region there are two
lakes, one large and one small; and large
underground lakes have been found at
only few yards below the ground sur
face. A French engineer just returned
from a visit to the island. which, by the
way. is carefully guarded from the eyes
of the curious, and almost entirely closed
against foreigners, says that three COM
