The following are few of the reasons for believ-
ing this company to have basis so solid and relia-

abiding confidence in the entire safety OF their IN
vestment, but strong assurance of its great profit
ableness. sggog 1874 pa9 A-l1 ~ f.
n The property was carefully selected at period
when pick choice Of the best Oil Territory was
to be had. 5N4t0# hAH ltap 1901 PES ~ *
p 1t was selected by an energetic, praetica man.
then and still resident of the vicinity most fully
acquainted with its situation and value, and after
personal and thorough examination accepting only
the best, and rejecting many neighboring places
which have since been taken with ayidity by other
parties, who are now holding at immense advance
8. The party who selected them is, and will con-
tnue to be, very large stakeholder in the Com
pany. He is very respectable, energetic, driving
man. has engineered the tunnelling and other works
Of railroad building isflly qualified for, andhas de-
termined to devote his energies to a thorough and
efficient development the property of this Com
pany which fact is ofitself of immense value, and
so deemed by his associate owners; securing as it
will the ceaseless devotion of deeply interested
thoroughly competent, and energetic manager.
d.. The Company are already energetically at
work boring five wells, namely: ~ ini 300

with excellent indications of oil in EACH and have
determined, if thought BEST to put down not less
than One Hundred. Many Companies have several
wells on one acre. This Company has Territory
sufficient to sink Sic Hundred Wells, allowing
more than five acres to each well. -,.. ~
s. And as to the abundance Of Oil in the region,
it at one time became plentiful not to beworth
the cost ofprocuring casks in which to place it. An
instance may be named in which, for want of proper
vessels, an Ohio fatboat scow was filled in bulk
with it, which was sold at one cent per gallon, but
kept until the purchaser Iesold at twenty-eight
cents per GAL, or Sill 20 per barrel. n 1AO

and taking this as abasis the shares in the Company
would not be twenty cents per share; making an
other comparison, one share in this Companyis more
than equal to having one share in twenty separate
tcompanies, Vinasmuch as the average Of each sep
arate Farm, in this Company, forms q basis for a
company by itself each Farm having so many choice
