4 This Company owns in fee simple seven
ty-seven and three-ten acres on the Eas
side of the. Allegheny River, in Rocklan,
township, Venango County, Pennsylvania
IL is situated five miles below the town o
franklin, opposite the mouth of the Yves
Sandy Creek, and has a frontage of ITO rod
on the river 1t is but short distance be-
low the celebrated Hoover we'll which is
yielding 200 barrels of oil daily. Other
yielding wells surround it in every direction
and within the past few weeks two new
wells have been struck in the immediate
| neighborheod, one of which is producing dai-
ly 30 barrels of heavy lubricating oil worth
at the well $50 per barrel.
A fine wien of Bituminous coal, easily ac-
cessible, is on part of the land, and in view
of the enormously high price of coal in that
region, is an important consideration, and
Will enable the company not only to supply
Its own wants in that respect, but to derive
an income from its sale to others.
The adjoining. properties are in the hands
OF good and prosperous companies, all in sue
cessful operation, and it is believed that no
oil company has started out with better
prospects for paying large and regular month
ly dividends.
This Company intend developing their land
without the least delay, and for this purpose
have arranged for the necessary engines,
tools, tubing, &C., all of which will be put
upon the ground and in operation as soon as
the season will permit.
In addition to their own wells, the Com
pany also propose 10 lease to irresponsible par
ties portions of their land divided into lots off
10 square rods each, at rent of one half
the oil, The Company to be at no erpenSe
,ohateuer. They will have at least fifty
such lots to lease, all OF which can be leased
at once if deemed expedient, with covenants
binding lessees to sink wells with all possi-
BILE despatch to the depth of five hundred or
more feet Estimating, only one well tol
each lot, fifty wells, at the very moderate
average of ten barrels each, would make q
laily product of 500 barrels. Of this the
share would be go barrels.
Value of daily yield to the Company at
$50 per Barrel, $3.50.
Allowing $50 working days to the year, the
Jompanys annual net receipts from leases
llone would be $1,S75, 600 |
The Company also intend sinking on their
,wn account, at least five wells. Should
hey be successful with only one, it would
produce, estimating as above, a yearly in
,ome OF s 10000
from which deduct for expenses
"a large estimate) $4,000

A Few PLAIN WORDS TO SUBSCRIBERS.
Subscribers to the stock of this Company
cannot expect to receive Immediately large
monthly dividends; if they were able to do
so they could not purchase it for ten times
the amount at which it is offered. But the

believed, make the investment entirely safe,
and, pYospectively, of enormous uatus.
The President, Col. E. w. Davis, formerly
of Franklin, Venango County, is well known
as one Of the most successful and energetic
business men who have engaged In the Pc
troleum interest, and the responsibility aud
integrity of the other officers and Directors
of the Company, furnish sufficient guaran-
ty that their conduct of the business
of the Company will be entitled to the
confidence and approval of oil who may
invest in the enterprise.
The Directors have determined to sell on
ly limited amount of the Capital Stock at
the subscription price of So per share, par
value $5, the same being full paid up stock,
not liable to any further assessment, in which
respects the original subscribers, and those
who may now subscribe, stand on precisely
the same footing.
Subscriptions will be received at the Office
of the Company, 224 South Fourth ST., Phil
