A boring in a salt well on the land of a Kentuckian named Lemuel Stockton suddenly became a geyser of oil which spewed thousands of barrels of crude into the Cumberland River. Something perhaps lightning set the oil afire and the river burned for forty miles a river of flame. But gushers aren't being done any more. At the first sign of production a Christmas Tree is clapped on a well. This is a complicated system of pipes and valves called a Christmas Tree because of its general shape and many branches de signed to control pressure. Not only does this control prevent waste and danger of fire, but it conserves the natural forces which lift oil from the depths to the surface of the earth. Nature's mighty hand is thereby induced to exert over a long period energy which other wise would be exhausted in one prodigal outburst. The longer a well can be in duced to retain its natural flow, the longer the period before it must be put "on the pump," the less the production cost of crude and the less the price at which gasoline can be provided to the motorist.
