STANDARDS FARM
RICHEST IN WORLD
400 Acres of Fine Land in Kansas
Contain Only Oil
.,-.. Tanks.

Neodesha, Kan, March 2s.--The on.
slaught Of Kansans upon the Standard
Oil company has called attention to
the fact that near this city John D:
Rockefeller has what is undoubtedly
the richest farm in the world, and not
a dollars worth Of produce is raised
upon it. The farm consists of 400
acres of fine land. Its value is nearly
100000, and its annual crop amounts
to about $8,OO0,OOO.
The Rockefeller farm is purely a
tank farm, and is so called in this
neighborhood. AT approximately the
same distance apart on the 400 acres
are fifty big oil tanks, each od having a
storage capacity Of from $4,000 to 90
900 barrels Of oil.
A space of eight acres is set apart for
each tank, and around each is a dyke
of earth about five feet in height,
thrown up to catch the oil should a
leak be sprung or to fight away the
flames should they come in the wake of
a stream of oil that had burst it's con-

Production Greatly Increased.

In these tanks is stored the surplus
oil of the Kansas field. The production
has been increased greatly. A year
ago it was about 1900 barrels a day;
now it is twice that figure.
If the state is going to put the COM
pany out Of business in Kansas the
Standard will lose several millions in
investments such as the tank farm,
which cannot well be moved without
great impairment. There are smaller
tank farms at Humboldt and Caney.
These tank farms are connected with
the oil fields everywhere. Big mains
run into each Of the six producing
counties, and from these laterals ex-
tend to wherever there is any oil. The
moment an operator can show pro-
duction Of fifty barrels day the Stand
ard will build him pipe line.
More than $6,000,0O0 is invested by
{ the Standard in pipe lines in this state.
Each main line is supplied with a
pumping station which forces the oil
thru the pipes. Where the oil does not
run by gravity, the Standard has been
paying a cent barrel for the steam
used In pumping, which in itself has
been good source of income for the
operators.
