IN 1913 (when there were 1,009,000 automobiles in the United States) oil producers drilled about 25,000 wells. The average paid for crude was 95c per barrel. In 1914 producers had a little discouragement. The price for crude oil fell off to 61c average, and they drilled only 23,000 wells. These wells, however, proved exceptionally prolific and crude E rices dropped to an average of 64c a arrel (40c in the Mid-Continent field). As a consequence of the over-production, the bottom dropped out of the gasoline market and low prices prevailed. The low prices of crude made exploration of new helds unprofitable, and in 1915 only 14,000 wells were drilled. This halt in production enabled demand to creep up on supply, and caused crude to advance until it reached $1.10 per barrel. Encouraged by the better prices offered, producers put down 24,000 wells in 1916. The unprecedented demand aroused by the war caused petroleum prices to soar, and, notwithstanding the activities in the produefng field, prices have continued to advance because demand exceeded supply. In August, 1920, the number of new oil wells brought in for that month alone was 3,513 the highest oil production mark in the history of the United States. Yet so great was demand that Mid-Continent crude stood firm at $3.50, and Pennsylvania crude at $6.10 per barrel, the present prevailing prices. The market price for crude is not apt to go off appreciably while demand continues to increase as during 1920. Since 1913 the number of motor vehicles in the United States has increased to approximately 7,459,607, and the forecast for 1921 is 10 million motor vehicles in the United States. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is straining every fibre and sinew of its highly specialized organization to increase the yield of gasoline from crude petroleum. How well it is succeeding is indicated by the fact that an eminent authority states that the Burton process, orginating in the laboratories of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has produced 40 million barrels of gasoline from heavy distillates, and has thus saved approximately 150 million barrels of crude oil that would otherwise have been necessary to produce an equivalent amount of gasoline.

Officials Take Charge Of Indianapolis Leper XBy Associated Press) INDIAN AO LIS, Nov. 15. State authorities today took charge of Robert Burdine of this city who has been under observation for two weeks pending the outcome of tests for leprosy. Announcement by the State board cf health said the tests show conclusively that he is a leper, and he, his wife, and seven year old daughter have ben placed in quarantine. His case will be taken up with federal health physicians with a view to placing him in a government sanitarium.
