Which is the safer place to invest-where oiiis THOUGHT to exist
or where tits KNOWN to exist!
Instead of buying a lot of cheap and remote land on the Ter chance
that OIL MIGHT BE FOUND, The FEDERAL Company took the sae
The Higgins and 6S yards from the Lucas Gushers. where oil has Al
READY BEEN FOUND in quantities almost surprising belief. The
same money would have bought tens of thousands Of acres in sections
where oil is supposed to be. The Lucas oil pool, great as 1t is, does not
extend under the entire Eastern portion of Texas Is some people seem to
think. But the big gushers prove that the pool is several thousand feet
(. 900 feet, and the land of the FEDERAL Company being but 1 ,42O feet
away is we'll within the area of the Oil Pool Experienced Oil men are
SO sure of this that they are paying from S60,O00 to $780, 900 per acre for
ground near the FEDERAL. Higgins and Lucas properties.
Isl it a good thing for q Company to own property the market value of
which exceeds the par value of Its Capital Stock?
Federal. has it. Federal. however, prefers to pay dividends from
the sale of oil rather than from the sale of land
ii. Most of the new oil companies provide a small treasury and promise
to put down a well. If one gusher is a good thing. two are better.
FEDERAL has started two wells. which will he two gushers in about
$50, COO cash and 15OI 600 shares of stock in the treasury. This stock will
be worth several hundred thousand dollars within 80 days 1t belongs
to the stockholders.
A perfect title to tn. land is an absolute necessity.
FEDERAL has it. No leases. nc law suitss filed or pending. No
claims of any kind against the property. 9
To insure SUCCESS a strong management OF capable and experienced
business men is also necessary. -
FEDERAL has it. The President and Treasurer is MI. q. A. Dun
can. Cashier and Director of the Beaumont National Bank, a conservative
and prudent man of affairs, who, with the other directors, occupies an
important station in the business world.
These are some of the reasons for the phenomenal demand for FED.
ERAI; another is, that there is no stock on the market with so much
gusher ground so close to the gushers that can b. bought at such a low
figure IS FEDERAL.
