business that has made more million
,:ires and more small investors wealthy
than any other industry in America
The delay i'll receiving permits from
the Government has caused the home
,oiks to lose confidence in those of us
who have stuck to our posts.
Every human effort has been put
forth to avoid a mistake and every
thing points to big success.
Will you join our family? In
which every member has an equal
chance to win where every endeavor
will be made to get oil and III we win
we will all be made wealthy.
Where fair play. large acreage and
small capitalization offer you a chance
YOU cannot afford to miss. lis a
chance worth taking.
We can in all earnestness and sim
cerity say to you, III the strongest
terms at our command, and we can
with both pride andpleasure commend
to our friends, and the investing pub
lie, that the men behind this enter
prise are honest, and will give you a
run for your money.
The moral of this is that even
though you know but little about the
oil industry. but have faith in the
men running it, stick to them and your
reward will come.

AN APPEAL TO TIE
AMERICAN PEOPLE

Three an one-half million children
in Eastern and Central Europe have
no alternative to disaster between nov
and next harvest time except Ameri-
can aid For month, because the needy
were so numerous and the available
funds so limited, these most helpless
sufferers in the track OF war have
been admitted to American feeding
stations only if tragically undernour-
ished and have received American
and only if threatened by death and
disease.
Winter is closing down. The
money of many nations is valueless
outside their own boundaries. In
evitably the helpless children will sui
fer most. No child can grow to health
and sanity on the pitiful makeshifts
for food with which millions OF Eu-
ropean adults must content themselves
this winter. Help must come from
the outside.
America saved 100000 European
children winter before last.

lowing letter from NJ. d. Collins

bered that several clubs were formed
in Lyon County last year and the
results were very encouraging.
! have inquired in several states
for prices Oh certified seed potatoes
Ii such seed is purchased at the

s. Is: per hundred pounds f. o. b..
points in Idaho and Colorado. These
potatoes are certified Tree from disease
and are. considered the very best OF
seed
Persons interested in securing the
clean seed will find it fully worth
while to purchase seed OF this kind
Different varieties of potato can be
secured although the most common
are the Burbank and the Melted Gem.
We are planning on purchasing CO.
operatively through the marketing de-
partment of the Farm Bureau in
large quantities. By doing this we
can get the cheapest possible freight
rates.
| hope to interest several boys and
girls between the ages Of II and 20
years in planting tourth of an acre
or more of this type of seed. II
there are boys and girls in your COM
munitv who would be interested in
securing some OF this certified seed,
| will be very glad to get i'll touch
with them i'll regard to the purchase
of this seed. The matter can readily
be taken up with your county agent
who will be glad to secure some Of
this seed for you, or may be taken ny
directly with this office.
Persons interested in the co-opera-
tive purchase of certified seed pota-
toes may take the matter up immcdi-
ately sol as to get their order in the
shipment which will be made in the
near future.

He HAS RECEIVED
DRILLING PERMIT

How-do-yo,+do, Mr.. and Mrs.
Everybody? Remember me: I'm
Hastings, Of the Wassuk Oil & Gas
Company, df Yerington, Lyon Coun-
ty, Nevada.
And I'm happy today, and I'm
going to tell you why. Was re-
viewing what had done the past
year and it made me happy
I've worked hard for the develop
ment OF the oil industry i'll our dis
trict, worked to help men better them
selves. I've succeeded-been sue
ccsstul i'll bringing people together
Our prospector's permit has been
received. The Wassuk Oil & Gas
Company has in total, 1850 acres.
The district i'll which the land is To-
Gated. has been pronounced by five
biologists as being oil bearing land
second to none discovered ir the
state
Here's the way | look at life:
help the other Fellow first-and you'll
succeed yosrself. Well. I've made
that the policy of the Wassuk Oil &
Gas Company like this You stick
with us and we'll stick with you
we know what you can do.
DO you wonder that I'm happy:
A year ago last November ! went
over i'll Mineral County, and located
this land, under the existing laws
at that time. but was far-sighted
enough to see the outcome of the oil
land leasing bill, passed February
18th, 1920, relocated \ all my land
under the oil land leasing bill, have
obtained my permit from the Sec
retary of the Interior granting our
company the exclusive right to drill
for oil or gas lfor two years.
Now, my dear friends, don't turn
your own couhtry down, and say
to the other fellow, There is no
oil in Nevada. Give these companies
chance to receive their prospecting
permits. The time is not very Tar off
when oil is going to be brought in i'll
Fallon and then you will hear every
one say Il told you So"
The Wassuk Oil & Gas Company
is not the only company that is trying
to stimulate people in this particular
district J. w. Matthews has located
Two thousand five hundred and sixty
$500 acres adjoining the north
boundary line of the Wassuk Oil &
Gas Company. and is going ahead and
organizing his company, known as
the National Petroleum Company.
Now folks here i'll Yerington. you
may have to look twice to find Yer
ington on the map-but don't you tell
that he lives i'll little burg
or say to him that the people here will
not go the limit, i'll supporting an en-
terprise that may bring untold wealth
to the people of this city, and sur
country.
You often hear some one who con
siders himself very wise say that rich
men get all the good things and
that they are never Offered to the
public. Yet the American Telephone
Company. which has made more
from the original dollar in
vested than any other industry i'll the
world, has 81 900 stockholders These
81 900 are the foolish ones" who
helped build that marvellous network
of wires.
Now consider the oil business
