PORTLAND, the County seat of
Jay County. Indiana, is between
Fort Wayne and Richmond, and
118 miles from Cincinnati by rail,
or about 90 miles on a direct line.
1t is in the very heart Of the largest
continuous district of natural gas
bearing land in the world; a district
which has been developed and
tested by hundreds of gas wells,
demonstrating beyond all doubt
that the gas supply is inexhausti-
BILE, and its quality for fuel and IL
Elimination unsurpassed. The gas
wells now In use at Portland have
an output of over 100000 cubic
feet daily, and this supply may be
increased ad infinitum.
Large manufacturing establish
ments have been locating in this
gas field at the rate of one per week
from the date of its certain develop
ment. The city offers FREE GAS
TO ALL MANUFACTURERS, and
an effort is being made to have the
city supply same free to families.
This will insure FREE LIGHT and
FREE FUEL to all.
The most densely-populated dis
tricts in Europe are over the cheap
est fuel, and eventually the densest
population in the United States will
be in this gas field.
The Grand Rapids & Indiana
Railroad and the Lake Erie & West
ern Railroad give Portland north
and south and an east and west
outlet. The county is one of the
richest agricultural and stock-rais
ing counties in the State. Portland,
with about 5000 population, has
