Two weeks ago a 500-barrel-per-day oil well was brought in at Notches. This is the first production from the Em- bar sands in this locality, and as a result unusual interest has been directed toward this new oil field, generally known as the great Powder River dome, which is known to be underlaid with this Embar sand. The new well at Notches is owned by the Western Exploration Co., which is said to be controlled by the Midwest and which, in turn, is called a subsidiary of the Standard Oil Co. Geologists and operators concede that the bringing in of this well proves the existence of oil pools in the great Powder River dome, and a lively scramble has followed for leases in the district. Casper-Embar Petroleum Co. pur- chased its holdings from operators who acquired them long before the stampede—in fact, at a time when they prac- arms out in snappy semi ——_— act Metro Wonderplay.

Knight: “This field (Powder River Dome) must be considered one of the best in Wyoming. The structural features are ideal There is one very thick bed of oil dstone exposed, with good evidence of two lower sands and possibility of a fourth in the Permian or Carboniferc On account of the gravity of the Powder River oil, flowing wells should not be anticipated, but, in case oi) occurs in the Permian or Carboniferous, a ‘spouter’ may be looked for.” (b) Bulletin No, 12, Page 130, State Geologist of Wyom- ing, L. W. Trumbull, says: “Up to the present time every perfect structure drilled (Wyoming) has proved to be a reservoir.” (ce) U. S. Geological Survey Bulletin No. 471, Field work done in October-November, 1910, by Carroll H. Wegemann, says: “The area under consideration (Powder River Dome) lies just southeast of the Big Horn Mountains of Wyoming, in township 40, 41 and 42 north, range 81 west, and portions of adjoining townships. “The whole structure is a duplicate of the anticline at Salt Creek, except that in the Salt Creek anticline the northern dome is the larger and produces the oil. In the Salt Creek dome only rocks of the Montana group are brought to the surface, whereas in the Powder River dome vulder formations are ex- posed. In other respects the two anticlines are very similar and apparently the same way. “Even should the Dakota (?) sandstone and the other beds near it prove unproductive throughout the dome, another pos- sible oil stream exists which has never been tested in this gen- eral region. This is the Embar formation, a division of the upper part of the Lander field, although the productive strata in that area are, for the most part, in the Chugwater red beds, which overlie the Embar.”’ (d) Geological Report June 16, 1917, by D. W. Hudson, California Geologist: . “IT consider the Powder River dome a perfect structure, enjoying the advantages of shallow territory, inexpensive drill- ing, fine natural physical conditions, and with the combination of capital and intelligent work, I can see no reason why the dome should not develop into a very prolific oil field, with legitimate investment proving most profitable.” (e) Geological Report July 16, 1916, by Dr. Howard Evans Ellitt: “I consider the Tisdale dome (local name for Powder River dome) a most perfect structure, and most worthy of de- velopment, and will state that there is not a single record of failure in the State of Wyoming where a perfect dome struc- ture has been drilled with prpoer geological conditions exist- ing, as they do exist upon this structure.” M.

SUMMARY The holdings of the Casper-Embar Petroleum Co. we consider ideally located within the oil-beari Powder River dome; geologists concde the dome to be one of the perfect structures in the State; we are ay ae perfect structures in Wyoming thus far developed have yielded oil production; wells are now in course of being drilled on sections adjoining the property of the Newhouse company in four cases. It is our belief that the bringing in of oil in any one or all of these wells will greatly enhance the intrinsic value of the Casper-Embar Petroleum Co. assets, and promptly cause the stock to advance in market value heavily; we conscientiously believe the new Powder River oil field will prove the existence of one of the immense oil pools of Wyoming, and that this stock will return immense profits to its buyers at 17//;c, both from dividend disburserhents and advances in market value. Asa Wyoming oil venture possessing immense potentialities, we advise the purchase of Casper-Embar stock at the price quoted, 17!4c per share. We believe the offerings will be over-subscribed. So far as fairness will permit, it is the intention to accept subscriptions in the order received. Reservations should be made promptly. Wire orders to Casper Trust Co., immediately. We eamestly advise that applications for amounts desired be wired to Casper Trust Co., to be followed with full payment promptly. If desired, stock will be forwarded, bank draft attached.
