ten miles from Athens, containing one hundred and
five &C es of land. A large number of wells are
successfully worked in the vicinity, some of which
are paying handsome dividends This company pro-
pose to commence operations at once and entertain
no doubt that at an early day they will be able to
pay handsome per centage on the investment
The known ability and commercial standing of the
officers of this company afford sufficient guaranty

The tract of land adjoining the property of this
company has passed into the hands of capitalists,
who have sent out an experienced superintendent to
commence operations and their first order for ma
chinery was SIS 900. Our property has been exam
ined under instructions from DR. A. A Hayes State
Assayer Of Massachusetts, who pronounces the coal
which is in abundance, to be of the best quality,
yielding eighty gallons of oil to the ton and has
doubt from the location and position of the proper
ty that it will be found valuable in the production
Of oil. Most companies have to pay very high pri-
for their coal, all of which we save; oil can be
manufactured from the coal upon the property, at
cost not exceeding ten cents per gallon audit is pro-
posed to commence the manufacture in connection
with the sinking Of wells One dollar will buy
hare of this stock which is the par value, and all
b nefts derived from the lands either by sales Of
OIL land or products of any kind are to be divided
among the stockholders, and in addition $500 900
worth of valuable, useful and desirable property
will be given to the stockholders, all the
shares are disposed Of The Company adopt this
course for the purpose of dsposing of the stockat
the par value rather than to sellit, many compa-
MES do, at subscription price which is usually
one-half Thus, it viii be perceived that every
stakeholder owning ten shares, for example, will be
sure to realize handsome dividend when the prop
erty is divided; plan which is entirely honorable,
and in all respects perfectly legal.

holders will be equal to any in :he market, and will
