The present and prorpective value of the stock of ikli»
Compaarmaj be inferred from tbe fact that it own«'&
fee simple Interest to 473 (four hundred and
three) acres of the richest tested oil territory in Venau&o*
Aou&ty, believed by the most experlencsd oil men Itn
that Jtegioa to be capable of producing a net annual le**-
come to the Company of .one and a half million dollars. -
or Ibree times the entire eost of the stock, which would l
bo equivalent to twenty five per cent, a mouth on tta
subeoriptioE pric«, or o«»e hundred and fifty per cent,
per annum on its par value.
. The following Is a description of the Company's pro
perty:
One-fourth fee simple interest in tbe celebrated
* i Hoovtr M Farm, situate on tbe Allegheny river,
about two and OBS’fcaU miles below 'Franklin, con
taining 292 (two hundred and ninety-two) acree, with
332 rods (or over one mile> fronton the Allegheny river,
on which there are now twelve lesser, each ten rods
square,and from which the owners of the fee simple get
one half the oil, free of all expense. Besides'fcMa,
there aretwo v ells ‘owned by the owners of the fee,
from which they get all the oIL
Op this Farm there are now tea well b is operation,
producing an average of ten barrels perday,and several
others are about beiag tubed. There are aUo on it 87
(eighty-seven) mow lots surveyed, aad more tbaa jfty
applications are now standing to lease the latter for one
half the oil to the owners.
Out of the twelve wells om this Fariaare now
paying handsomely: a fact which sufficiently demoa
atratea the great richness and reliability of the terri
tory. -
Is the entire fee simple interest In' 181 (one hundred and
eighty-one) acres* situate on the Allegheny river,
nearly opposite the “Hoover” Farm,’and a little
nearer Fiaaklin, at the mouth of Mill Ban, having a
front ol 96 rod# on the Allegheny. Tlver, and one ml'e oa
both aides of Mill Run, with ample boring, surface for
one hv.ndrtd to*.lie, or Lots of ten rods square. This
tract is known as the f ' 8U wort Farm* ’ ’ and 1b clear of
all leases or incumbrascca of any kind.
There ia now in operation a fifty*barrel well (beside
several smaller oaes) on the Cochran which ad
joins this on the south. Id fact, the 4 * Stewart” Farm
ie surrovndtd with gob*-raving; wells, and within a
aho&t time a stogie lease of 80 rods front, on the imme
diate opposite side of the river, sold for $165, QTO (one
hundred and sixty five thousand dollar*.) On this
leal e a good w ell has been struck within a few days.
In addition to tbe territory of ths *‘Stew*-rs’ "Farm,
which iahblieaed to bo equally as g.nod aa the ‘ * Hoov
er”) thtre are on it a three-story Grist Mill, with fine
water-power, a good farm-house, and other haUdiagi,
that will he of ute to the company.
The durability of this Immediate oil section la illus
trated by tie fact that some of the wells on the “Hoov
er” Farm 1 ave been pumping for over four years,with
out any material diminution in their yield, while the
-oil here produced, from its greater convenience for
transportation and superior gravity, alwayscomxasnda
from one to two dollars per barrel more than the oil at
Oil Creek.
The officers of tbe Company feel justified in present
ing the following estimate of What, with vigorous
masaiement, the above lands can be made to yield for
the benefit of the stockholders is a comparatively shoxt
time; ,
Therein room on this for one hundred lots of ten rods
square, all of which can be leased immediately for one
half the oil, frte of all expense to the Company.
Estimating one well to each loHone hundred wells
although there is room for three hundred) at the very
moderate average of ten barrels each, would make a
Daily product i.QOObbla,
Outof this the Company's share would be- 800 bbls.
Value of daily yield to the Company,- at
ten dollars per bbl (it Is now selling at
$13.60)—.. W4OCO Oft
Allowing three hundred working days te
the year, this would, make the Compa
ny's annuftl net receipts, from the Stew
art Farm alone. 1,500,000 00
Allowing the same estimate for the *' Hoo
ver* * Farm, in which the Company owns
one fourih in lee of the land interest, the
annual net receipts from thelatter would ,
be 375,000 QO
Making the annual receipts from both

Deducting from this amount the sum of
$376,0(0 for contingencies, would leave

If it is Atoned expedient at a royalty of one half the

all poeslble diligence, to the depth of 600 or more feet.

Notwitbstanding.atthe present prices of oil, the Com
pany’s annnal receipts (without. any Inrther develop-,

cent, on the eoßt of the stock.
The president, Mr. Stewart, is one of the poetprae-

OUR ATTENTION BAYING BEEN CALLED TO AS
sertions and si atemenis lately made in tbe public prints
with the design of detracting from the high repute en
joyed by our Thread, we beg to state that our standard
has never been changed during the past Thirty Years;
and that now, as heretofore, no pains and expense are,
hr will be spared to maintain for this %>aol Cotton its
present character.
The attenHon of Buyers and Consumers is drawn to
the fact that most of the new Threads offered to the pub
lic, from No, '3O upwards, are marked up, and that the
difference in the coarseness of numbers, supposed to cor '
respond with our numbers, often varies from ten (10) to
