Trainers.

Ben Lomond. Cal, May 12-In thiz
mornings bouts with Armstrong and
Choynski Jenries presented each OF
his sparring partners with a discOlored-

partners a grilling session
Armstrong came out Of the battle
With a severely bruised face. with a half
inch square of skin peeled off near the
eye
Landing twice in rapid succession on
Choynsh's right eye Jeffries caused

sanity. When line was called on the
final round ChOynski was bleeding

ing this morning, the big fellow decid-
ed that his work was done by noon and
he was ready TO take things easy for
the remainder OF the day

CALIFORNIA;
Greatest Industry

The sensational developments of re-
cent months have shown that the Cali
fornia oil industry is far more wonder
ful and far more profitable than even
the most enthusiastic had dared to i'm

There has never been anything like
California oil in all the growth and
history of the nation for making ire
mendous profits on small investments,
and it is doubtful if there ever will be
again.
We strongly urge the immediate pur-
chase of stock of the Ventura Oil De-
velopment Company, which controls one
square mile Of oil land in the very
heart of the Ventura oil district. with
two wells already in oil sand, thereby
assuring a success to this great enter
