In brief, the Texas oil industry during the past year
continued to do its part in meeting the demand for oil. It has
expanded pipelines to provide low-cost transportation.
It has improved facilities for making more and better
petroleum products for your use. Today, two gallons of
gasoline do work that required three gallons in 1925; and the
gasoline costs no more than it did then.
Refining —The Texas refineries will have
a big year. They now employ, in round
numbers, 46,000 Texans, and process
about 28% of all the oil refined in the
U. S. The daily refining capacity of all
Texas refineries exceeds 2,000,000 barrels.
A program to expand and improve these
facilities has been general throughout the
industry.

Asphalt Shingles
Selected in Blend
By Color Stylists
In planning the color scheme
either for a group of houses or
an individual home, color stylists
and designers usually select as-
phalt shingles in a blend for the
roof.
A blend readily harmonizes
with a wide range of colors, giv-
ing the designer latitude in the
colors for the trim, siding and for
accent. The roof color serves as
the key to the color pattern for
the entire house.

"Quality Higher Than Price”
Production— Production has reached a
record level. Texas currently is producing
about 46 per cent of all the crude oil pro-
duced in the U. S. In the year ending
August 31, Texas production totaled
about 1,015 million barrels. There are now
133,800 producing oil wells in Texas.
a
Taxes — The Texas oil industry continues
to be the largest tax-payer in the State.
Through the year ending August 31, gross
production taxes alone on Texas oil and
natural gas amounted to more than $137
million; in addition, the industry pays
large amounts in other taxes.

Reserves — Proved oil reserves in Texas
of 18 billion barrels represented 57 per
cent of the U. S. total at the beginning
of 1952. During 1951, the last year for
which figures are available, proved re-
serves increased two billion barrels. These
are developed oil reserves and the figure is
important: developed reserves supply our
needs currently and provide reserve ca-
pacity that is immediately available when
we need it.

New Wells—During the twelve months
ending August 31, 1952, the Texas oil
industry drilled 17,000 new wells, at a
cost of over $700 million. Most of the
heavy expense of drilling these new wells
was paid from earnings plowed back into
the development of the State’s oil re-
sources.

The White Deer Yearlings down-
ed the Skellytown Panthers, 32-14
at Buck Stadium Thursday night.
The Yearlings went on a scoring
spree in the first stanza, scoring-
eighteen points before the Pan-
thers could stop them. The Pan-
thers were unable to put together
a TD drive.
Transportation — The total mileage of
Texas’ trunk pipe lines for oil and finished
products is over 29,000. This low-cost
transportation system is a major factor in
the maintenance of the low prices you
pay for petroleum products.
