EVEN OLD ADAM MAY HAVE BURNED COAL OIL
Petroleum Known to All Ages Says Professor Erasmus
Haworth
Street lamps in the Garden of. Eden may have burned kerosene to light up the apple orchard. Prof. Erasmus Haworth told the American Society of Petroleum Engineers that petroleum has been known to all ages of civilization.
Professor Haworth, had for his subject the "History, Discovery, and Development of Oil and Gas." This is the same lecture he delivered last year at the University of Illinois, Merrill School of Mines, and at Ames, Ia.
"The development of the oil and gas industry in the United States, has not a parallel in any other kind of mining," said Professor Haworth. "Especially in the last ten years has the output of gas and oil been much increased. In 1903 100-,000,000 barrels of oil were pumped. In 1912 220 million barrels were pumped. In no other time of mining, as in 1903 an outburst in out-of-120 percent in ten years. The value of oil and gas at the present time equals one half the value of the coal production."
Professor Haworth told of the use of oil in colonial America. The savages, he said, used it in mixing pigments for their war paint and as liniment to cure the skin of the Indian Corn舞 as well as to heal the afflictions which were visited upon them by other red men. The colonists used petroleum for both internal and external medicine. The oil at the top of the canopy burned from the ground but skimmed from the surface of bonds where it collected.
"The first oil was found in boring for salt water," he declared. "In nearly every case natural gas was before salt water was reached.
"By 1837 it was proven that kerosene could be taken from the crude oil, or petroleum. In 1859 the first attempt was made to find oil underground, or rather to dig for oil instead of for salt. Colonel Sunk a sink at the ocean. Pennsylvania to a depth of sixty feet where a vein was struck which yielded twenty to thirty barrels each day. This well is still producing oil."
The lecture was illustrated by views of different oil fields. Among the pictures was shown a reproduction of an oil advertisement of 1840. This did not represent oil as a light or fuel but as a medicine.
