Pardoe Thinks He
is in the Real Oil
Fields of Wyoming

John Pardoe, manager for the David
Cole Creamery company, whils he is not
boasting about it, feels that he is on
the same road travelled by all Ilillion-
aires, and that he is in fair way TO
become an oil magnate-however, he has
not yet thrown up his position.
A couple of years ago Parioe secured
title to a quarter section OF land in
Wyoming near Riverton, midway between
Shoshoni and Lander. Within the last
month two wells have been put down on
an adjoining quarter section and in both
oil was struck at u depth OF less than
LOCO feet. Wells have been put down on
other lands in the vicinity. which leads
Pardoe to believe that his land is within
the proven oil field. This week he has
refused an offer OF $50, 900 for his property.
He is now figuring on leasing to the
Standard Oil.
