as a canvass is now being made to
see how many of our business houses
and homes will agree to use the SER
vice when it shall be installed. The
prime movers in the proposed enter
prise are G. w. Gordon, the we'll
known telephone man of Oskaloosa,
o. w. Mattison, also of Oskaloosa,
and John REM, of Abba. They figure
that it will require about $4,000 to
put the plant into operation and they
have assurances of sufficient capital
to do it, providing enough promises
of support can be obtained.

Fields.

James T. Burns, a native of this
city, but for the past twelve years
prominent In real estate circles In
Oklahoma, Is here interesting his
friends and organizing a company
for the development OF the oil
fields adjacent to Ardmore. Mr.,
Burns says he brings back to his
relatives, neighbors and friends a
proposition that is guaranteed. The
company he is organizing will pLr-
chase 1880 quarter acre lots for
800 each, which will also entitle
the holder to seventy-five shares in
the Scully Oil and Gas Company. ANY
lot owner on whose land oil Is de-
veloped will receive 1914 per cent.
of the product, which from a 200
barrel well would realize $1s.75
per day, to which will be added the
Scully Oil and Gas Company diy-
ldend. OF course the larger lie
flow of oil the larger the profit. The
balance will be divided equally
among the 1880 lot holders. This
appears like safe investment, and
the amount required to buy lot is
small.
