An Oil Dome Hlustrated o I am no draughtsman, but maybe I can draw something that will help exâ€" plain. â€"Here‘s rough drawing of an oil dome. The shaded part at the botâ€" to miss a dero-it of oil bearing sandsâ€" with an impervious (rock ‘stratum above. Aâ€" wildâ€"catter drilled the hole Aâ€"B and gas pressure caused oil and gas to flow. ~After a while the gas pressure wasn‘t sufficient to keep up the flow and they pumped until ultiâ€" mately even this ceased producing. SAYS OIL SHALE: j HOPE OF FUTURE We â€"know ‘that most petroleum has come from rather limited areas and that even from these only a small proâ€" portion has been taken out. Oil proâ€" duced by gas pressure capable of liftâ€" ing it to the surface when we drill holes is but a small proportion of all the oil contained in the sands. Even from the best pools recovered by the old methods is small, perhaps oneâ€" half in the most favorable conditions, oftener oneâ€"sixth, or oneâ€"seventh, or oneâ€"tenth. But a considerable part of what.still remains in the ground can be recovered by methods now estabâ€" lished as technically and economically practicable. Producing oil from coal and shales and by mining the oil bearing sands is entirely possible. Experiments are going on in these directions, and if we ever have to fall back on these reâ€" sources we will be ready. For a long time, however, the present methods of exploration and drilling, with improvâ€" ing processes to assure larger recovâ€" eries, are likely to suffice. SUPPLY FOR MANY YEARS (By Harry H. Hill, Chief Petroleum Engineer, United States Bureau of Mines.) . vit 3 One reason why there is no, reaâ€" son to, worry greatly about motor fuel forâ€"a long time ahead is that people are worrying about it. Interâ€" est in such a question at the right time, is the best insurance against disaster. â€" The President and the Fedâ€" eral Oil Corporation board have done what was needed, at the right time. Nevertheless, most of the oil wu! still left sticking to the sand grains. Then the operator drilled the well C:D, which flowed for a time, but' most of the oil was still dovn-‘there! in the sand. If the gas pressure conld; be restored more would flow.â€" So the operator injects gas into one well, restoring the pressure and causing the oil to resume flowing from the other. . After a time the flow will stop again, but still much of the 1.»il¢I will be left. In some fields it has been possible to obtain: additional amounts of oil by introducing water in some of the wells and forcing the oil to others. ‘The addition of a chemâ€" ical such as soda ash to the water may assist in removing the oil from the sand ‘grains, but neither plain water nor water containing chemiâ€" cals should be introdueed into an oil sand except as a last resort, for it is likely, that the water, which travels faster through the sand, will get to the open wells ahead of the oil and when the flow is resumed under presâ€" sure water will come out. Everything Saved Nowadays The gas escaping from an oil well earries with it a proportion of gasoâ€" line, which in the old days was lost. Nowadays it is extracted from the gas and saved, while the dry gas can be forced back into the ground to maintain pressure. $ ces Chief Petroleum Engineer of U. 8. Bureau of Mines Tells of Value of This Type of Oil Source One of the menaces to most oil pools is the inflow of subterranean water. Water flows through the oil sands faster than oil, and by surâ€" rounding the bottom of the, well keeps the oil out.. How to shut off the water and permit the oil to run out is a problem with which the engiâ€" neers have long worked. They have made great progress and so increasâ€" ed recoveries. ; In earlier times most oil producers carefully guarded all information about their wells and experiences, but latterly there is coâ€"operation in these matters. Geologists and ‘petroleum engineers, once devided by the "pracâ€" tical" oil men, are more and more acâ€" gepted as guides and mentors. New knowledge is .constantly increasing recoveries. As to Mining for Oil e In Lorraine they have dug shafts down to the oil sands and actually brought the sands out, like coal from a mine. But it‘s costly. Another mining process is to sink a shaft to the oil sands and from its bottom drive tunnels in all directions through the sands. ~From these tunâ€" nels inall perforated pipes are driven intoâ€"the sands, which drain the oil out of the sands. It flows to larger pipes back at the foot of the shaft and thence is pumped out. This reâ€" quires installing an expensive plant, tut in some fields the high recovery that is assured might justify the cost. I understand the process is about to be installed in a few fields in this country, some companies being conâ€" vinced it is practicable and ‘profitable. *Oil can be distilled from coal, and. much work is now being done along: this line. But more appeal has been: made by the plan of extracting oil from shale. ‘The shales of Scotland have been worked for threeâ€"quarters o!;eentnry,andthymdno-tnw limited in this country, richer in oil than those of Scotland, . Kentucky, Ohio, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Wyoâ€" ming and Cdifomil are particularly hA â€"~akratimmcaines . W of the cost of extracting the oil. Conâ€" gress has given $180,000, with which the bureau has installed a plant near Rulison, Colorado, to distill oil from the Colorado River shales.> It is calâ€" culated that the shales mined at Ruliâ€" son will produce about a barrel of oil to the ton. rich in shales. It is just a question ‘The Use of Oil Shules In Scotland they are working shales that produce about twentyâ€"five gallons of oil per ton. The seams are from threeâ€"andâ€"aâ€"half to eight or ten feet thick. ~In Colorado are seams many times as thick and containing much more vil per ton. Reduction of shales involves an enormous mining operaâ€" tion, and after the oil is extracted the vast tonnage of refuse must be disâ€" posed of. So it is expensive comparâ€" ed with producing oil from wells, . . Meantime federal and state governâ€" ments and the industry are coâ€"operatâ€" ing‘ in an astonishing range of investâ€" igations and studies. These activities cover such a wide field that even an enumeration of them would run into Property and endowment holdings of the Young Men‘s Christian associaâ€" tions in fiftyâ€"two countries of the world total more than a quarter of a billion dollars-â€"flg{,zlo,filo. to be exactâ€"according to a review of 1926 made public here by the National Council of the American Y, M. C. A., 347 Madison avenue, New York. _ Ben E..Lindsey of the Bureau of Mines Experiment Station at Bartlesâ€" ville, Okla., is confident that exploraâ€" tion, better recoveries, better utilizaâ€" tion and deeper drilling would furnish enough oil to meet all requirements for at least twentyâ€"five to fifty years, if it could be extracted in that time. But as a practical matter this will not be possible. Within that period there will be times of shortage, when oil from shales will be needed to suppleâ€" ment the oil from wells, etc. tiresome detail. IN FIFTYâ€"TWO COUNTRIES Total: Over Quarter of Billion Dollars, According to Late _ VALUE OF PROPERTY OF Y. M. C. A. LARGE Of the grand total, which is the latest international figure available, $184,038,300 is in the United States, the announcement said. Thirtyâ€"seven new buildings and additions to old ones, valued at $15,549,000, were comâ€" vleted and dedicated in the United States and Pacific: islands during 192¢, and fortyâ€"one others, worth $19,731,000, are now under: construc» tion. Several occurrences during 1926 woere construed in the council‘sreview as indicating greater opportunities for coâ€"operation between the Y. M. C. A. and the churches here and abroad, and a closer contact with youth probâ€" lems. j tA ces Greek Archibishop Visits U. 8. Demonstrations by the Greek Eastâ€" ern Orthodox church of a desire to coâ€"operate were regarded as especialâ€" ly significant in view of the conserâ€" vatism of the Greek church. The Metropolitan Athenagoras attended the 19th World‘s Conference of Y. M. C. A.‘s at Helsingfors, Finland, and the Metropolitan ,Gennadios made an axtensive tour of the United States in the interest of the Salonica Y. M. In the United States, the General Counselling : Commission of the Churches, established three years ago to promote better working relations with the Y. W. C. A., found its ranks expanded to include twenty of the leading denominations. Dr. John R. Mott, who during the year was electâ€" ed president of the World‘s Alliance of Y. M. C. A.‘s, told the commission that the Y. M. C. A. is in a . better position than ever before to be of service in putting down "ignorance, poverty, disease, and strife." _ Efforts by the association to improve race relations were given public recâ€" ognition when the Harmon Foundaâ€" tion voted the first of the William E. Harmon awards on religion. to Max Yergan, head of the Y. M. C. A. work‘ among the natives in South Africa, and gave an additional prize of $500 to W. W. Alexander, of Atlanta, Ga., for his work as secretary of the Y, M. C. A.‘s Interracial commission. At Odds With Communism The expulsion in October of the asâ€" sociation‘s representative, Harry D. Anderson, from Moscow, thereby unâ€" ceremoniously terminating the work in physical education conducted by him under Soviet authority among colleges and universities, was acceptâ€" ed as an indication of the complete "incompatibility of the Christian and communist programs." â€" No. reason was given by the soviets at the time. Importance was attached to the World‘s Conference at Helsingfors because it was the first held since 1913 and because for the first time boys under age had a voice in the proâ€" ceedings. â€" The conference â€"spent nearly a week in efforts to "discover new and helpful â€" moral standards" and to heal wartime differences, and closed with an expression of faith in the ability of youth to solve its own problems. + YELLOW CAB RATES First twoâ€"thirds mile ............85¢ ‘ es nemstrecitibe miuttaet: h additi â€" 1 (Not v i n m sirtes | tstaae PHONE HIGHLAND PARK 2000 _ Wankegan Ave. Hig THE HIGHLAND PARK PRESS, HIGHLAND PARK, ILLINOIS Review by National Classified 82 N.
