Advance in Oil Prices
Is Great Help to Texas
Special Dispatch to The Star.

HOUSTON. February 13-Losses due
to recent storms in this section have
more than been counterbalanced by the
advantage accruing to farmers. cattle
vance in crude oil has had a stimulating
effect on operations in the Texas oil
fields both in priven and wildcat terri
tory. Oil drilling machinery and sup
plies are in tremendous demand and de-
liveres are being pressed on every side.
The better agricultural outlook has
stimulated buying by country merchants
and wholesalers and jobbers are over
run with orders. The advance in crude
sugar is causing increased activity
among refners, and the only lines of
trade to suffer are those to Tampico and
Mexican oil fields, which are more seri-
ously menaced by salt water incursions
than ever.
