A Gusher We'll Should Make Every
 Stockholder
 Big Dividends

As yet we have not fully decided when we will start drilling our first well. We arc of- fering a small portion of this stock to put over the plans we have zdopt- ed. We advise imme- diate purchase of this stock, as the present of- fering will not be on the market very long. Only a short distance from the famous gushers you have heard so much about in the Homer Field is our five-arro tract. If we get a gusher on this five-acre tract, the Homer-Baycu Oil Company will bo worth millions. Since we arc in the trend of production we sec no reason why we should fail to get a gusher equaling the one brought in on the Famous Guy Oales lease early in the summer of last year. If you were unfortunate in not getting in on the ground floor of some of the larger dividend-pay- ing companies, do not let this opportunity pass by without purchasing as many shares of the capital stock as you can afford in a company with a prospect of be- coming one of the larg- est dividendspayinx conn panies in the North Lou isiana Oil Fields.

Kansas wheat growers have been

per cent of the new crop of grain

sent to the midwest states. 1t has
been estimated that it would take

farms. The states immediate need
is $4,000 cars to adequately handle

VOTE BONDS NOW
FOR GOOD ROADS
SAYS PHYSICIAN
City Health Superintendent Declares
Chickasha Standing Still When
City Should Hard Surface
Cement Road.

That Chickasha and Grady county
should take immediate steps to build
and hard surface the road to the
Cement oil fields, with the penalty
of losing the oil field business as
an alternate, was the opinion ex-
pressed today by DR.. e. L. Dawson,
city health superintendent.
DR. Dawson pointed out that other
cities in the state have their eyes
turned to the Cement field and are
planning to build hard surface roads
leading to the field. The first town
that is connected with the field by
hard surfaced roads, he states, will
be the town to reap the greatest
benefit fro mthe field
"It is fact that many counties
in Oklahoma have already voted
bonds to hard surface certain roads,
within their boundaries said DR..
Dawson. by this process each
county lays out and improves, the
district which they desire. 1t ap-
pears That this is going to be the So
luton for hard surfaced roads in
the state
1T is clear that we need hard
surfaced road to Cement. We can
put it off no longer without serious
loss to Chickasha and Grady county
What we need now is action.
81 would suggest that the county
call an election on bond issue for
half enough money to hard surface
the other half. Before we get that
Cement road built, if this action is
taken, we will be doing the same
thing for a road to Tuttle
"These improvements would more
than double all real estate values in
and will increase the
farm values in the county from so
to 100 per cent It's time we were
acting. The first thing we know
it's going to be too late"
