The Price of Gasoline
Is Soaring

II would appear that the present
time Is the one particular and only
time that there has been a genuine
runaway market for gasoline.
Everybody appears TO be bidding for
that commodity and for once there
Is free market with no limit as to
price. but with an Unsuitable de-
mand.
The Standard Oil subsidiaries are
bidding against each other. Just as
they have been doing for casinghead
gasoline all during the spring, and
Independent jobbers and marketers
are seemingly of the opinion that
there will be great shortage and
not near enough to supply the de-
mand, which is directly due to the
great number of motor cars. trucks.
busees and farm tractors. and on top
OF this there is the usual spring rush
TO buy which comes with the open
ing Of navigation on the Great
Lakes.
The weather has been all against
the use of motor cars and had there
been dry spring instead of the
wettest In the history of the coun-
try. there is no telling how high the
price might have rome. As Il is, there
is market that demands still high
er tank wagon prices in the Stand
ard OF Indiana territory, and this
must come or there will be q lot OF
independent jobbers so out OF busi-
ness instantly.
Gasoline of $3.50 gravity sold as
high as 20h cents yesterday In 5
and 10-car lots. while the export
market was strong. with most OF the
shipments going from north Texas.
The tank wagon market in that
state was advanced cents per gall
Ion by the Pierce people a day or
Two ago and was met Thursday by

Timers tEmpire), and probably by
this time by the Texas. Gulf, Hum

ness at loss and there has been
70 chance In the world for him TO

Roland Well DriUes String
OF Tools Through Control
Head to Top of the Derrick

The Roland oil company big well
ln 2-i5-s, half a mile south of the
creek County poor farm, yesterday
uut or a show that is In a class
by itself. in the annals OF the oil
game.
The company had succeeded In
getting one string OF tools out of the
well. ana had Just closed the control
head when there was n tremendous
rush OF oil that. brought the sec
ond string to the top OF the hole,
bursting through the heavy control
head, and on up to the crown pulley.
The well is running wild and IL
is impossible to even get an estimate
nm It's production, and 1t ~ furnish
ing more excitement to the square
inch. than was ever known in Bris-
tow, or any where else in the Mid
Continent field. There has been
excitement galore on account OF the
well making about 10000 barrels
with the two strings OF tools in the
hole but the crowd now has gone
crazy and is absolutely wild with
Joy at the performance OF this big
producer.
"Creekology," has already paid for
itself and should the Wilcox OIL e.
Gas Co. test which is now on top
OF the sand, and the Carter OIL COM
pany well, which started yester-
day at 125-barrels per hour, make
a showing anywhere near as good;
there will be people here far beyond
the capacity of Bristow to hold
them.
1t was strongly urged by the gas
men at the Kansas City convention
this week. that Tulsa put on a big
oil and gas show, and even the sec
retary OF the association, William b.
Way. stated to the writer. that "he
would like nothing better than TO
put on just such a show In Tulsa
Certainly. with few more wells like
Bristow Is offering. there should be
no trouble in getting a crowd here.

Countrywide Laws
For Use OF Mirror
Called Essential
Uniform Statutes Requiring
Trucks to Carry Mirrors
and H0rse-Drawn Vehicles
10 Display Lights Urged

Accidents on the highways could be
greatly decreased by the passage of
uniform state laws requiring every
truck to carry mirror, giving view
of the road Immediately to the rear,
and by requiring every horse-drawn
vehicle, as we'll as automobiles, to dis
play some sort Of light when using the
roads at night.
This is the opinion of NJ O. Eldridge,
director of roads Of the American Auto
mobile Association Good Roads Board,
after making careful digest of the
traffic laws of all the states of the
Union. Mr.. Eldridge, in a report to the
Secretary of Commerce, sets forth that
thirteen states have laws requiring the
mirror on trucks, but that very few
have any regulation for horse drawn
vehicles.
Motor trucks need mirrors, as they
travel at a slower rate of speed thau
passenger cars, and the noise OF the
engine completely browns out, in many
instances, the horn of the motorist be-
hind, who is blowing for the road"
said Mr.. Eldridge. "Often they will
swerve about the time the passenger
car is about to pass, and this means an
accident. AS for the light on horse
drawn vehicle, the need for it is
obvious"
