To Investors This Company now controls
over (3O,OOO) thirty thousand acres of lands
and leases in the real oil and gas belt. These
properties have been carefully selected and
are well blocked into many different proper
ties. reaching into twelve different oil coun-
ties. We have actual work started on
twenty two new wells-six to eight of which
should be completed during the next week,
including several to the deep sands.
This Company may have over two hun
dred million dollars Of oil in these different
properties and is determined to put into
operation the balance OF forty to fifty drills
and keep them going until the Company $
production reaches twenty thousand barrels
per day.
It controls one great lease Of nearly
fourteen thousand acres northwest OF the
rich lItaldton oil pool on a reported greater
anti cline than lIeadtOn. The Hcaldton field
covers less acreage and is now estimated to
be worth nearly quarter OF a billion dollars.
Also this Company has Just recently Sc
