The Dakota Petroleum Co.. is organized for
profit, and it's purpose is to make money for
every stakeholder out of the oil and gas bust
ness. 1t intends to conduct under the string
ent Blue Sky Law of the state of North Da-
kota by developing it's present or acquired
holdings.
The Company own at present 10000 acres
of Slope and Bowman County leases. Most Of
this acreage is located on the Southern end Of
what is known as the Glendive anticline and
conceded by all practical oil men to be the
very best in the field, and is causing
great excitement among men in Oil Circles
at the present time.
The structure or %anticline which experts say
extends from the Yellowstone river near Glen
dive to the Little Missouri near Marmarth
holds out the greatest possibilities in semi
proven oil and gas territory that is available
in the Northwest today.
At Glendive several producing gas wells
have been drilled in, and midway between
Glendive and Baker another producer has
been struck and still another at Baker and we
are confident that the oil pool will be discov-
cred near the Marmarth end of the structure.
Study your map. Ask "Oil Men Who
Know about our location and our chances
to realize "Oil Money" from this alluring
prospect.

been proven time after time that the way to
make big money!, quick money, is by risking
a little, by taking a chance. Many people
today are immensely wealthy because they
took a chance and invested a small amount in
OIL. The fields around Marmarth are 60
ing to be developed and developed fast.
Many citizens of North Dakota will draw out
big money from small investments, if they
get in while the field is in it's infancy. This
company is going to drill upon leases which
experts have told US the indications for get
ting both oil and gas are very good.
If this proves true do you want to share
the proceeds with US. The investments you
make are small and the returns if we strike
it are going to repay you mighty, mighty
well for the chance you take.
This stock will probably not be upon the
market very long for the shrewd business men
will be quick to see the advantage of helping
develop this property-But we arc willing for
you to come in too-but do it quick. Act
