There is no guarantee
that we will strike oil, and
you may lose your money if
you invest. t Therefore, do
not put any more in this or
any other speculation than
you can afford to lose. Any
man that guarantees that
his well is going to strike
pay oil, is either a crook or
fool.
Less than fifteen short months ago Ranger, Texas, had only one
gas well and one well drilling. Today it is the oil sensation of the
entire world. Throughout the vast region shown below the big oil
and gas wells are being found everywhere many new wella going
down every day and new pools being constantly discovered.
You, as well as most of us, know people who, with a little of
that "seeing into future" gift and a little money, a little courage
and perhaps, the advice of someone else, took a chance in East
land and Stephens Counties and bought a few acres early in the
"game" and have reaped a fortune in a short time.
Tt's alwava that wav with "someone else." Rut it ran be
' Slowly, but surely, the field spreads and no man alive can , , you as it was with them. It's hardening out there every day.
predict the end. Big oil companies and little and thousands of
individuals are developing and leasing throughout the region,
making dollars grow where none grew before.
Leases that were bought bujt a short time ago for just a few
a very few dollars are selling today for thousands of dollars
an acre, a thing undreamed of, perhaps, but true.
Not luck foresightedness in buying right. -,
We make no predictions as to how big the gushers will be in
McCulloch-we promise no oil as in the Ranger field but we do
believe the oil is there and the point of the drill will tap the sand.
The Texas Co., Gulf, Humble and Empire all are prepared
for oil to be found. So is the Sun Co., Sinclair and Roxana,
Pierce and Prairie and all the rest with their vast acreage near
ours.
- .Will you make money when the oil does come?
There are now 17 deep
tests being made in Mc
Culloch County. We are
practically surrounded by
drilling wells. v
Can you afford to sit
idly by and watch the other
fellow make they money.
Act today. ' -
THE OLD CONSERVATIVE POLICY
OF FINANCE APPLIED TO
THE OIL BUSINESS
LEGITIMATE business does not first get its factory,
mine or other enterprise and then its capital. The proceed
ing is reversed; there must be capital in order to do busi
ness. Does a bank first get its deposits, then its capital?"
A great railroad cWpany does not build its system and then
get its capital; a manufacturing concern does not establish
its factory and then issue stock. In every line of business
capital comes first then the establishment of the business. -
The Oil Game With the
Gamble Left Out
' IN this day and time, when the largest fortunes in this
country have been made from oil and its products; when
comparatively small capitalizations have grown into hun
dreds of millions; when the world's greatest wonder of oil
fields in Texas is transforming paupers into millionaires
over nighty no argument need be advanced that the de
velopment of oil fields is not only legitimate, but if prop
erly managed will enrich the investor in a short time and to
a greater extent than any-other investment can do.
We are placing on the market a tract of land on the
western line of McCulloch county, near Brady, Texas. This
tract of land has been subdivided into drilling units of one
acre each. '
Our Plan Is This f
We will sell an oil and gas lease on these one-acre
units for $100 each, and when sufficient money has Seen,
received we will drill for well on this land. The well
will be located bjj our geologist. If we strike oil your lease
will become very valuable. Five acres at Ranger sold for
a fortune. Thousands of people are in Texas buying leases.
If our well comes in oil you can have your lease developed
on-a fifty-fifty basis. Ypu receiving one-half the net oil
produced and 'the drilling contractor to pay all the bills.
If you would invest some" money with us, send a check by
mail or messenger for the number of units you desire. Send
$100, $200 or $500. We shall mail at once to you, in your
name, a lease for the number of units you purchase. You
will have no partner. It will be yours alone. No salary to
pay. No assessment. No mismanagement.

The Shallow Fields, now in their infancy,
are being developed gradually, and the terri-j
tory is being widely extended.
The time to get in the game is flow, while
opportunities for investment are still presented.
The Deep Oil tests give promise of making
McCulloch County the greatest oil ' field in
Texas. When deep oil is struck, the man
who invests now will reap the full benefit.
Don't Delay! 'if you want information, ad

Numerous Geologists
have found the formation and structural conditions in McCul
loch county most favorable for the accumulation and reten
tion of oil and that it should make a wonderful field.
, Among the geologists so reporting are the following: 1

DOUGLAS OIL COMPANY HAS SHOW
ING OF BOTH OILJND GAS AT 700 FT.
HALF MILLION CUBIC FEfcT OF GAS IS ESTIMATED FLOW
DRILLING CONTINUES THRU 30 FT. OF SAND AND ARE
NOW BACK INTO HARD LIME AGAIN.
i
The Douglas Oil Co. late Monday
evening struck a flow of gas which
the drillers estimated at half-million
cubic feet. Previous to striking the
gas flow there had been a good
showing of oil. The oil and gas
was found at between 660 and 700
feet, in about 30 ft. of sand. The
caving of the sand and the striking
of a strong flow of water, however,
prevented a thorough test of the
sand, and drilling was continued
through and back into hard lime.
The well is now drilling at some
thing over 700 feet.
J. E. McGinley, president of the
Douglas Oil Co., arrived from Ne
braska Sunday and was greatly in
terested in the showing. The well
has been visited throughout the
week by large numbers of citizens
from all parts of the county, as well
as by oil men and investors visiting
here.
The fact that the oil .sands are
capable of being developed into a
paying shallow well, according to
local oil men, and the further report
that the Douglas Co. is considering
starting a shallow test, has caused
rising prices in leases in the vicin
ity of the well. The report of shal
low development by the company
could not be confirmed.
