TO INVESTORS:

The Uncle Sam OIL Company has reached
the stage OF its career where II Is no longer
a small local concern, but Is assuming the
proportions Of a great national enterprise.
II has three great refineries completed and
miles OF main trunk pipe line and laterals
scores OF distributing stations and a great
enterprise three-fourths completed. easily
large enough to market and manufacture
at the very least five thousand barrels Of

50 cents per barrel for the highest grade.
while the plans Of the criminal OIL trust
are 20 run It still lower. The Uncle Sam
OIL compenv has been considering this situ-

fnerfes for four years and to keep the
storage built up so that a four years sup
