Largest industries In Kansas and one which
affects every farmer and every laborer and
professional man in the entire Kansas oil
peit reaching as above stated. This whole
OIL belt, II given a square DEAL. a free
market and a fair price will blossom like
a rose and It's prosperity be felt to the
entire limits of all Kansas. In other words.
they may make fun of the Jayhawkers but
ypu can't skin one part OF this state and
get another part to help you. for every
Nansan realizes that the prosperity of his
Kansas brother means his prosperity as
well. The whole state of Kansas is stand
Ing to the man behind the independent oil
interests and 1t is a cinch that they are
going to stick together in this fight until
they win 1t and they are Just as sure to
win as water seeks It's lowest level. and
that's why an Investment in this great
organization which has been on the firing
line of the fight for two years, doing It's
d uty for a square deal. Is as safe and Sc
cure as government bonds. It Is certain
to receive loyal support in Kansas and
even one-half OF the oil sales of this
state would pay handsome dividends on
every share OF its stock while the ad1oin.-
ing states are going to do almost as well.
what we Want TO Do.
AS before stated, the company has
raised right at one million dollars Every
dollar of this money is back of the en-
terprise. This company should complete
at once the balance of two hundred dis
,ributing stations. We should also COM
lplete the balance of the river pipe line.
which will only take about one hundred
miles, and this Is u small amount when
YOU stop to consider that the company
has already completed one hundred and
%forty-one miles. The company should
also. during the next four months. in
crease the Atchison refinery. Uncle sam
No. Q. to ltwenty-four hundred barrels
per day. Cherryvale refinery to six hum
Nlred barrels per day, and Tulsn to TWEEN
ty-four hundred barrels. The company
already has under construction q big
paraffin plant at the Atchison refinery
and machinery ordered for n lubricating
plant at Tulsa. The market Is waiting
for us. the people want the oil. Never
was there a grander opportunity for any
enterprise than Uncle SAM, and never
were hoping and praying for the success
of an enterprise which is building up
right in the face of one of the most
cruel and oppressive combinations OF
unspeakably dirty methods of competi-
Ntion. Besides this, the Uncle Sam Com
pany has maintained from the first that
this Kansas-Oklahoma oil is natures
own fuel, and there is not q taxpayer
lin any OF the Central West States Who
does not know that the fuel problem is
already a serious one and becoming more
serious every year.. The oil trust, the
railroads and the coal trust are appa-
rently al working to the same end. to
INgfve the consumer the worst of 1t. When
INvou help the Uncle Sam Company you
lHhelp advance the flag of reasonable, indie
pendent fuel. II you don't think so. call
Hat any of the Uncle Sam distributing
stations and get a barrel of oil and an
EIoil stove, and compare 1t with the cost
OF your present supply of fuel. Uncle
Sam will have ~forty-four of the big Kan
sas counties equipped for fuel oil by the
middle of February, while thirty of them
are equipped right now,
There are thousands of farmers. mer-
chants and professional men in the
United States who, out of the love of
Justice, and to help further n worthy
cause. should buy a thousand shares of
this stock at one hundred and fifty dol
lars. and could make 1t possible for this
company to complete all of its work
right away. This company has already
made it possible for the taxpayers of
Kansas to buy the best water white
kerosene anywhere in the State at am
average price of four dollars and q half
per barrel laid down in any hamlet in
the State where, under oil trust COM
binations, the former average price was
from eight dollars to twelve dollars and
a half per barrel. The oil trust has al
most a systematic control of all big
money transactions in the United States.
The only way on earth this company can
complete its great undertaking is to raise
these funds in amounts ranging from
fifteen dollars to five thousand dollars
from Independent individuals. 1t annot
