hundred and ten Q10) ffty-five thousand
barrel steel storage tanks and secure nee
essary tank farm locations One of these
tank farms will be near the Tulsa Uncle
Sam refinery, accessible to the very high
est grades of oil containing valuable lub
ricants. and within very few miles of
the Glenn oil pool, which is now produc-
ing over twenty-five thousand barrels of
oil per day. Another of the Uncle Sam
tank farms will be near one of the
large producing properties of the
company, viz: Eleven hundred acre
I. T.. Another of these tank atn
farms will be at the Uncle Sam Cherry
trunk Uncle Sam pipe line near the Piqua
pumping station, accessible to the Cha
mute and Humboldt OIL helds, and a very
large Uncle Sam tank farm will be es-
tablisheo on the main trunk pipe line just

the worldwide oil fight was successfully
farm Will be used to store Kansas oil
principally where it will be accessible for
distribution for fuel purposes to all cf
northern. western and central Kansas as
Uncle Sam oil burners are installed and
the demand increases. Also by laying
pipe line less than ten miles the company
will be in reach of the great fuel mar

was ever hard pressed for funds it could
rels of crude oil for fuel purposes to
the big packers and other heavy fuel

bonds you Will know that this company

create a sinking fund but it will also
have several million dollars worth of alb
solutely marketable and merchandise

of a ready market all the time. Another
one of the tank farms will be established
close to the Atchison Union Sam refinery
on the banks of the Missouri river. Like
wise this oil in storage will be accessible
that for thousands of miles line the
banks of the Missouri and Mississippi
rivers. OIL is just like so much cash
when in storage and ACCESSIBLE to such
outlets as these, for it will cost but very
little to barge oil up and down tn Mis-
souri, and into the Mississippi and its
tributaries. Bonds backed by such prop
erty mean that the interest will not only
be paid promptly, but the principal will
be met Times may get hard and money
pie will buy it to furnish light for their
firesides as long as they will spend
penny to buy anything. At the present
this six million barrel barrels of crude
oil which this company Will be able to
place in storage through the sale of these
bonds can be sold most any time for fuel
purposes up and down the two big rivers,
as before stated, at prices practically
three times the cost of the crude oil in
the oil fields. As the work on these tank
farms progresses and as the millions of
barrels of this oil are placed in storage
the bonds which are offered to you now
at par together with a bonus of one-half
worth
their full face value, but the stock will
be worth at least two dollars per share
