Read a Little ‘ orse Sense’
About Oil, Rubber and Opportunity
We have played “ostrich” long enough with the great oil possibilities of North and West
Nebraska. It is time to act quickly if we are truly interested in the adequate defense of
our country, and the scientific and legitimate development of oil in the state—regardless of
what may ultimately happen to any other country on earth, or because of the present
great war—
America and Nebraska Must Be Amply Fortified
Most every well advised oil authority predicted the fall of Singapore, the East Indies, and pos
sibly the oil fields of Burma to the Japs, and the necessity of America supplying all of the oil for
our Allies in the eastern theatre of war. The predictions have come to pass as you know.
Oil companies referred to the possibility of stepping up American oil production to meet the
deficits which seemed sure. It was first thought that 60 per cent increase would handle it okey.
However, since then our Allies have grown in number from nine or ten to over twenty, and we
must furnish oil and its many by-products for them all.
In order to conserve both oil and rubber, the Government decided to ration gasoline and lubri
cating oils, fuel oils and napthas. This is in effect in the east and northwestern parts of the U.
S. A. now, and when the eastern seaboard and the Gulf of Mexico have been cleared of subs, and
that mammoth 24-inch pipeline, now under construction, is completed from the great oil fields
of Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arakansas and Kansas, to the Ohio-Wabash River junction, it
is most probable that there will be no further quantity shipments of gasoline and oil from that
area to the North Central U. S. A. Therefore, don’t be surprised if
Gas Rationing Might Start In Nebraska Any Day
The southern and eastern oil fields will take care of the export requirements, and a part of their
domestic needs back there, but it seems to the oil industry, and some smarter laymen, that if
Nebraska and several of our sister states are to have ample gasoline and oil we will have to pro
duce it here. And neighbor, this definitely is not just sales talk. Many of America’s foremost
geologists say that Western Nebraska has the greatest known potential oil areas yet untested in
the Central United States. The Valentine Oil Company has proper and efficient organization
and management with which to uncover the oil fields so badly needed. Would you supply a small
part of the cash required to do this job right? Would you chance as little as one hundred dollars
or more? That is exactly what this company is giving you. We know we must buy Liberty Bonds
and War Stamps, but . . .
We Must Not Forget This Very Important Fact
We can’t keep ’em flying, rolling and sailing on stamps alone. A million planes, battle tanks, ships
and cruisers would be entirely worthless scrap without power to propel them, and without oil
to lubricate them, and that auto and tractor of yours is very liable to be setting idle while you
walk and cuss your bad luck.
Let Us Never Again Be Caught “Too Late With Too Little”
You Cant Keep ’Em Flying On HOPE!
The Government does not drill oil wells. It lets you do so, and it permits you to make the enorm
ous profits accruing to the finding of a new oil field. This Government, also the state of Nebras
ka, have leased hundreds of acres of their mineral oil and gas rights to C. M. Valentine, president
of the Valentine Oil Company. He, in turn, has assigned the leases to the Company. Uncle Sam
and jthe State of Nebraska must have thought a great deal of the ability and integrity of Mr.
Valentine in order to place such trust in him.
This Company does not recommend the investment of all your loose funds, but it does recommend
and urge the investment of a small part of your available cash in this undertaking. Your coun
try, your state, and you, need the scientific development of our oil resources, and this develop
ment is needed now, not months, weeks, or even days hence, but right now! What are you going
to do about it, neighbor? ✓
Our selling campaign is about over. Your opportunity to get into this fine, clean undertaking is
definitely limited. Five thousand dollars more will start the thing grinding. After we have
started drilling, the price of our stock will positively be subject to not less than 25% advance.
