The property has been carefully examined by a com mittee, and pronounced to be, In their judgment, most valuable ana excellent oil land. The lands in this sec tion lave proved wonderfully productive in thick lubri catiug oil.' Immediately below the Company’sproperty is the celebrated Cochran Farm, ana the Franklin Citi tin% in t oticing the new wells recently struck, says: “One by Dale & Morrow, on October 12, the Coch rane Farm, two miles below Franklin, which ? ielded 240 barrels at the first forty-eight hours* pumping, is considered good for 100 barrels. John Lee has als j ob tained a flowing well* on the Martin Farm, just above the Hoover, ana nearly opposite the Cochrane, which flows ever SO barrels per day. Also, Mr. Hubs, who o> ms a lease on the Smith Farm, who has been pumping four barrels per day, at 408 feet deep, sunk his well 424 feet, and struck s well giving “40 barrels per day. All' thesestrikes, have been-within ten days, and the pros pect of a number more in a short time. ” - On the Company’s property there are already two wells. Well No. 1, near the lower end, about 20 yards from the river, Is sank about 520 feet* and although there is evidence of abundance of oil, the quantity of gas and p&rfafine below prevents its being worked to advantage until thedotrble tubing machinery is applied, as in the well on the Cochrane Farm, yielding 60barrels daily. The committee report that “on the withdrawal of the chambers from the well (Ho. 1). oil was thrown up 20 feet above the surface. * * Well Ho 2is about the same distance from the river, and abmtSO yards from well Ho. 1. Oil was obtained at about 500 feet, but it is deem<H advisable to prosecute the boring below the third sand-stone. The oil from both these wells is thick lubricating oil. The committee who examined the property of the Company, at the same time examined other producing tracts in its vicinity, and they deem this to be one of the choisert to that rich oU region, heeding slight ap plication fitly to make it one of the mass productive «kir profitable. The Company proposes to push its do ve! crpmentwith the utmost energy,appljlnr the newest and most approved machinery to the wells on the pro perty*fend unkingadd Itional one sat the earliest period. To those desiring investment in a well-founded Com •pany, the Directors present the SECURITY as one of the most desirable and they ask that its claims be care fully considered.
