HDDEN OILFIELDS REVEALEDBY HEAT Measurements in Deep Wells Urged to Show Up Sub- terranean Deposits. New oil fields and other valuable mineral deposits in regions where the tell-tale rock structures now lie burled ce and random covered at a Y means of measurements of the he: in deep well ording to W. “Thom, jr., geologist in charge of the division of fu f the United States Geological Survey. Series of temperature v low cost nients taken at different depths in|? wells of the Salt Creek dome in V ing, he said, show that there Is rect relation between these tempera- tures and the shape of the folds in the rocks associated with oil deposits. The sharpest rise in te: ratures has been found near the crest of the dome and proportionately less sharp increases at arfous points on its flanks. Simi- ir temperature differ have alse | Dbeen found in artesian wells in eastern North and South Dakota These relationships suggest, Mr. Thom sald, that they may be used | » aled uplifts and buried | rol oil production in » lahoma and California. A single showing an abnormally sharp rise in a series of measurements | at different depths would indicate the | existence of an uplift in nearby rock strata. Two wells would give a possi- ble clue as to their relative position on the uplift, and three wells would glve a apspestive guide as to the gen- ers direction in which the crest of |§ the conceuled uplift would lie. Not only would this in many places reduce the amount of exploratory drillmg required to discover oil and gas pools assoclated with such fea- tures, but small holes for temperature | measurement could be put down the necessary thousand or more feet with n dlamond drill at a much lower cost | than for ordinary ofl well drilling Mloreover, systematic study of existing holes and artesian wells may lead to the discovery of oil in regions not now seriously considered, and yield enough evidence to justify wildcat testing of the oll possibilities of deeply covered * Tocks In the Great Plains States. This method would serve as an effec- tive supplement to other methods now being used, Mr. Thom stated, and would in no sense supplant them. Mr. Thom's theory is that the rock strata were first folded up; then, in the course of geological time, the top of the fold was cut off by weathering, exposing the deeper-lying and hotter rocks at the crest of the ridge or dome.

VICTORIA LAND CHILDREN LEARN OF COW AND HORSE Marooned Teacher Tells Pupils of Animals and Chickens, Un- known Before. 29.—Native chil- | north of Can- . have never seen a cow, & chicken or a horse. Miss Alice Supplee, a Se- attle school teacher, who was ma- rooned in the ice there for many months, had to translate cow into caribou and chicken into ptarmigan in teaching the children how to read. She found them bright and eager. Miss Supplee accompanied Capt. Christian Klingenberg last year on his trading schooner when he sailed for Victoria Land. There she was to give the captan’s daughters and a number of native children a rudimentary edu- tion. The vessel froze into the ice out 2 miles affshore, S0 Miss ipplee conducted school in the tiny n Miss Supplee’s blue eyes, her hair d skin caused the natives to marvel, e was the only white woman in that _|land and the inhabitants came for H.
