County is the scene for the In-
dustry's continued search for oil
and gas. Some 137 wells were dril-
led in tli*' county last year, with
50 being wildca* exploratory
wells, according to the Oil & Gas
Journal. Tin* Association estimat-
ed that more than $13.1 million
was spent on drilling in the coun-
ty this past year and that some
$5.7 million of (Ids went for dry
hob's. Close to $311,000 was spent
last year on geophvslcal crews
using seismic devices to probe
die underground formations of
Jackson County for possible dril-
ling locations
Leasing adds many thousands
of dollars to the county's econo-
my. Tabulations by the Interna-
tional Oil Scouts Association show
major companies in 19(51 were
paying rentals on about (5(5,000 un-
developed acres, which comprise
about one-eighth of tho county’s
area.
Royalty payments to Jackson
County farmers, ranchers and
other landowners are running at
more than $5 million annually,
the Association calculated.
Jackson County producers and
royalty owners also make a siz-
able contribution to the support
of stato government, with produc-
tion tax payments of more than
$2.1 million a year some $1.4
million from oil and $730,000
from gas.
Industry taxes likewise are im-
portant to the county govern-
ment and school districts in tho
county. For Instance, 44 per cent
of the local property taxes col-
lected for the Edna Independent
School District comes from oil
and gas operators; 73 per cent at
Ganado; 93 per cent at Industrial
Consolidated.
A sizable impact on the Jackson
County economy has been regist-
ered by petroleum industry pay-
rolls. About three out of every
five payroll dollars in tho coun-
ty are derived from employment
in oil and gas work, according to
figures from the Texas Employ-
ment Commission. The industry
payroll is more than $3.(5 million
a year, with tho average em-
ployee receiving more than $5,500
annually.

and one cycling plant are operat-
ed In llic county, handling some
18(5 million cubic fort of gas a
