It vas only 69 feet deep, but it marked the beginning of an epoch, the importance of which has only begun to be realized. The demand for oil created by the development of the internal combus tion engine, has so stim ilated the growth of the industry tha. there are today, according to es'.inxates by the American Petroleum Institute, about 275,000 producing wells in this coun try. Production has increased from the negligible quantity obtained in 1859 from Col. Drake’s little wail. to an output last year of 469,639,00*) barrels in this country alone.
