The present and prospective value of the stock of this
Company may he inferred from the feet that it owns a
fee simple interest in 473 (four hundred and seventy
three) acres of the richest tested oil territory in Venango
county, believed by the most experienced oil men in
that region to be capable of producing a net annual In
come to the Company of one and a half million dollars,
or three times the entire cost of the stock, which would
be equivalent to twenty-five per emit, a month on its
subscription price, or one Aumfred and fifty cent,
per annum on its par valve.
The following is a description of the Company’s pro
perty:
One-fourth fee simple interest In the celebrated
“Hoover” Farm, situate on the Allegheny river,
about two and one-half miles below Franklin, con
taining 292 (two hundred and ninety-two) acres, with
532 rods (or over one mile) front on the Allegheny river,
on which there are now twelve leasee, each ten rods
square,and from which the owners of the fee simple gat
one half the oil, free of all expense. Besides this,
there are two wells owned by the owners of the‘fee,
• from which they get all the oiL
On this Farm there are now ten wells in operation,
producing an average of ten barrels per day, and several
ethers are about being tubed. There are also on it 87
(eighty-seven) more lots surveyed, and more than fifty,
applications are now standing to lease the latter for one.
half the oil to the owners.
Out of the twelve wells on this Farm eleven are now
paying handsomely: a fact whichy sufficiently demon
strates the great richness and reliability of the terri
toay.
No. 2
Is the entire fee simp le interest in 181 (one hundred and
eighty* one) Mires, situate on ihe Allegheny river,
nearly opposite the “Hoover” Farm, and a little
nearer Franklin, at the mouth of Kill Run, having a
front of 96 rods on the Allegheny river, and one mile on
both sides of Mill Run, with ample boring surface for
one hundred wells, or Lots of ten rods square. This
tract is known as the “Stewart Farm, 11 and is dear of
all leases or incumbrances of any kind.
There is now in operation a fifty* barrel well (beside
several smaller ones) on the Cochran Farm, which ad
joins., this on the south. In fact, the 1 * Stewart ’ ’ Farm
is surrounded with good-paying wells, and within a
sheet time a single lease of 80 rods front, on the imme
diate opposite side of the river, sold for $165,800 (one
hundred and sixty* five thousand Ndollara.) On tide
leateagoodwellhasbeeustruckwithlnafew days.
In addition to the territory of the “Stewart” Farm,
which is believed to be equally as good as the “Hoov
er”) there are on it a three-story Grist Mill, with fine
water-power, a good farm-house, and other buildings,
that will be of use to the company.
. The durability of thie immediate oil section is illus
trated by,tl e 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, alway s commands
from oce to two dollars per barrel more than the oil at
Oil Creek.
Ihe officers of the Company feel justified in present
ing the following estimate of what, with vigorous
management, the above lands can be made to yield for
the benefit of the stockholders in a comparatively shoxt

Estimating one well to each lot (one hundred wells
although there lo room for three hundred) at the ver,
moderate average of ten hatrels each, would make a
Dally product of l,Goobbls.
Outof this the Company’s share would be. 600bble.

ALL THESE LOTS CAN BE IMMEDIATELY LEASED,
If it is deemed expedient, at a royalty of one-half the
Oil, with covenants binding lessees to sink wells, with
all possible diligence, to the depth of 600 or more feet.
A FEW PLAIN WORDS TO SUBSCRIBERS.
Ton are not asked to subscribe to this Stock with.the
expectation of immediately receiving large dividends,
hut the basis on which the Company rests, tt is be
lieved, will make yoar investment not only safe, hut,
prospectively, of enormous value. ..
Notwlthstahding.atthe present prices of oil, the Com
pany’s annual receipts (without any farther develop
ment) would ho forty thousand dollars, or eight per
cent on the cost ot the stook.
The president, Mr. Stewart, is one of thomoet prao
tlcsl and experienced oil operators In the State; and his
residence near the Company’s property and general
oversishtof its management is the best guarantee that
no efforts will be spared to make the investment pro
fitable. w
Applications for a large proportion of the stock have
already been made, bat none will be received until the
books of ths Company are regularly opened for that
purpose.
Only a limited amount of the stock will be sold, it
subscription price.
The stock will be issued full paid, without further
ssseguneuts.
BOORS OF SUBSCRIPTION will be open for a few
days, on and after January IS. 1865, at the office of

The value and importance of the above properties
may be inferred from the face that leases for ad joining;

Hew York and Boston companies at a bonus greater
than the fae simple octet of the Company’s estate* and if

the Company • Tins reduces the.actual coat of the stock
to First eubtc-.ibere to exactly 60 cents per share.
, The immense profit to be derived from earnest and
successful working is shown by the fact that a single
company—the Colombia—is this year paying to its
Btockhoidera One Million ($1,000,000 Dollars in cash
dividends, besides a handsome reserve for additional
