OIL FROM SHALE Philadelphia Concern Turning Attention Toward Oil Extraction From Shale IN HOOSIER STATE Realize Seriousness of Condition From Rapidly Diminishing Petroleum Indanapolis. Ind., Nov. 13.—Production of oil from Indiana shale is expected to soon become one of the leading industries of southern Indiana, in the opinion of officials cl the state department of conservation. Realizing the seriousness of the situation likely to be produced by the' rapidly diminishing petroleum supplies of the country, one of'the leading automobile manufacturing companies of the United States, with a large plant in Philadelphia, is turning its attention toward oil extraction from Hoosier shale. Following a visit to the laboratories of the division of ■ geology of the department of conser- I vation, the vice-president of.this com-: pany purchased a large tract of land in the shale district near New Albany. The site was selected by the company after consultation with Dr. W. N. Logan, state geologist, and is neat the border of Floyd and Clark counties. The company proposes to erezt an experiment pi<mt costing about $200,000 and -having an hourly capacity of several tons of shale at once. Shale districts in Indiana cover approximately 300 square miles -of territory in Clark, Floyd, Jennings, Scott and Jackson counties. In some see- . tions the formation is about 125 feet thick and is one of the largest in the - United States. Tests of the shale have ; shown that it will produce from thirty , s io fifty-five gallons oi’ oil a ton. Dr. Logan is of the opinion that the, by-products of the extraction of oil

from shale can be made a paying proposition. '’The indications are,” said Dr. Logan. "that the by-products of the process will pay for the expenses of distilling oil." Sufficient carbon can be obtained the shale, he says, to provide the fufel for distilling the oil. Other economies in the production of oil from tli,i« source will probably be developed in case the new industry is undertaken on an extensive scale in this state. The experiments of the eastern an tomobile company will be watched with interest by other companies which are contemplating establishing extraction factories in Indiana. Tho size of the Hoosier shale fields make it likely that the industry will assume vast proportions, in the opinion of Dr. Logan. The W. C. T. U. society of this city will hold its regular meeting Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Dallas Hower on Monroe street. All members of the organization are urged to be present. Mr. and Mrs. Coat Cook will go to Huntington for an over Sunday visit with their granddaughter.
