Market Gossip and Briefs
On Operations in Oil Fields

this investigation. under the general
direction OF N. A. C. Smith, petro-
leum chemist. To carry on this
work special stills with towers and
condensers have been erected at
BartlesviIle. okla. experiment sta
ton. A number OF novelties in re-
finery construction have been intro
duced. including n distributor for
regulating accurately the percentage
Of reflux In the towers. Fifty gal
Ion samples OF oil r being obtained
although from five TO ten gallons
will constitute the usual charge of
crude. All refined products viii be
manufactured from the crudes and
cuts will be large enough TO permit
a study OF the physical aud chemical
characteristics OF the refined pro
ducts.
This work should be valuable both
to tho oil industry and TO the gov
eminent. 1t will afford oil refiners
a reliable comparison of the refining
values Of various crudes and will
assist the government in determin-
Ing the true value OF oil produced
on government lands.
