MANY

FOR
OIL
(By
II.
F.
PULLEN)
Turner
Valley
was
visited
last
week
by
the
members
of
the
Canadian
Chamber
of
Commerce
following
an
open
air
luncheon
at
Pat
Burns'
Alberta
ranch
and
all'were
im
pressed
by
the
activity
shown
in
putting
down
new
wells.
There
were
at
the
time
of
the
visit
118
wells
either
being
bored
or
producing,
but
the
probabi'ity
is
that
the
number
has
already
increased.
Of
these,
34
were
producing
naphtha
or
crude
oil,
mostly
the
former.
This
was
more
than
twice
as
many
as
most
of
us
expected
to
see.
The
hnce
derricks
dotted
the
landscape
most-
:
ly
along
the
centre
of
the
valley.
These
were
the
wells
that
had
not
yet
struck
oil.
The
producers
were
hardly
noticeable
except
for
the
tanks
and
scrubbing
plants.
While
the
largest
number
of
plants
are
working
on
the
formation
first
discovered,
the
operations
are
being
extended
and
widening,
and
it
seems
reasonable
to
expect
that
they
will
soon
cover
a
very
en-
tenslvc
area.
As
each
well
costs
from
$150,000
to
$250,000
to
complete,
a
huge
amount
of
money
Is
being
spent
in
the
valley
and
Calgary
is
benefiting
considerably.
At
the
first
well
visited
they
were
drawing
the
casings
in
order
to

at
the
end.
