Russell, Proprietor I ---- -1:7---- --—. --- - III .— i.i — "I —t Kansas and Oklahoma Oil Fields Amaze the World The nation depends upon Oklahoma and Kansas for its high grade oil from which gasoline and other light oils arc refined. Oklahoma is producing over one-third (1-3) of the crude oil from which | gasoline is made .in the United States. If the Kansas and Oklahoma oil fields were to suddenly shut down, one-half of the automobiles in the United States would have to stop running. The great automo bile industry is, in a way, dependent upon Oklahoma oil fields. OKLAHOMA is producing almost twice as much oil as all of the states east of the Mississippa River — more than Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, West Virginia, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee and I^ouisiana combined. Considering the above facts, is it strange that OKLAHOMA & KANSAS OIL MEANS MILLIONS, or that hundreds of Oklahoma oil companies are making fortunes for their shareholders? The wonder of it never ceases. Almost every day you read of men, or groups of m on, or companies selling their holdings for millions of dollars. Recently the report was published of the McMann Oil Company, which sold out part of its production to the Magnolia Oil Company for the vast sum of $35,000,000. Just a few days ago the press and oil journals reported the sale of the II. B. Jones property in the Oklahoma field for $7,000,000. A fortnight ago the Hill Oil and Gas Company sold their holdings in Oklahoma oil fields to the Cosdcn Oil and Gas Company for $12,000,000. The Farmers Oil and Gas Company has holdings in these wonderful producing oil fields. It is now selling 400 square feet lots, giving a title in fee simple, guaranteeing the title forever, to the purchaser of the said deed. These lots are selling now at ten dollars and will soon be doubled in price, due to the newly discovered oil wells around this property. You better get down to the ground floor and invest AT ONCE! There is no telling what a hundred dollars invested in the Farmers Oil and Gas Company will do for you. Cirmers Oil & Gas Co. 3 Paxton Block, Omaha, Neb. ORDER FOR^LOTS IN THE FARMERS OIL & GAS CO.
