The first oil well in the United States was brought in sixty-three years ago by Col. Edwin L. Drake, near Titus vile, Pa. It was only sixty-nine feet deep; but it marked the beginning of an epoch the importance of which has only begun to be realized. The de, mand for oil created by the develop ment of the combustion engine has so stimulated the growth of the industry that there are today, according to esti- mates by the American Petroleum In stitute, about 275,Ooo producing wells in America. Production has increased from the negligible quantity obtained in 1859 from Col. Drake's well to an output last year of 469 639, GOO barrels in this country alone.
