Second Oil Well lo Be DrilledAl Wellington
Imperial Oil will drill a ‘second well at Wellington as soon as
the one presently being drilled is completed.’ This was announc- ed yesterday by G.L. Colpitts, producing advisor for the Com- pany who was guest speaker at a joint luncheon of Rotary and the Maritime Board of Trade.
Observing that 132 wells were sunk before the famous Leduc well was discovered, Mr. Colpitts said it is one thing to know that oil should exist in a cer- tain arca and it is another thing to find it.
Mr.‘ Colpitts described in detail the fortunate development of the oil wells in western Canada which now constitute a prime ‘factor in the economy of Canada west of Toronto and went on to say “The crude‘ "oil market on‘ the eastern seaboard and -Que- bec amounts to some 300,000 barrels a day. While that market is beyond the economic reach of the western all fields, it would be a “natural” for any crude oil found in this part of the country".
DECIDED ADVANTAGE
“Because it will never be far from tidewater, a.nd,.good trans- portation any oil_ We may fllld will have an immediate market in the refineriesclose’ at haii . “It would back. out imported crude oil in justthe same way that the prairies backed_ out Im- ported oil in the region it now serves,” he said. ‘ ’
Touching on -the main’ oil ac- tivities here, Mr.- - C-olpitts said, in terms of modern needs, how- ever, oil in large commercial quantities has not yet been found in the Maritime area. To and bring that fortirnate day closer, the activity will be ex- ploratory with test wells being drilled wherever the geology is most favourable: That. Iermght add, is the kind of operation We carried out at W.e11in8’C0,n-”

Johns-Manville patented Seal-O-Matic Asphalt Shingles have a continuous stripe of special adhesive on the underside of each shingle. The sun's hea-t automatically seals down the entire shingle edge and bonds it so firmly that it holds fast even in gale winds. The continuous seal also prevents rain and snow from being driven up under the shingle and thereby causing leaks.
