Answer:

A series of booms and busts

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1912, the "King of the Wildcatter," Thomas B. Slick, hit oil at the Cushing-Drumright Oil Field. Of the forty-six wells dug, only one was a dry well. Immediately, the area became a boomtown with communities at Drumright, Cushing, Shamrock, Tiger Town, and Oilton.

People would have oil fields all over the place and laws had to be placed to keep the land safe.
