Virginian Oil Company Salt Creek Producers Association McPHERSON SYNDICATE IS THE OWNER OF A LEASE UPON THE FOLLOWING DESCRIBED PROPERTY: South halé.($14) of Section Tw 0 (2) ownship Thi -three (33) N Ran Fs aig (is), pile of the Sa Sa ps hb ig aig Hane Twenty acres more or less; Thisty- 3 6 ), .

Hundred Forty (640) acres, more or less.; Said tracts. of land trona County, Wyoming and — Nine Hundred Sixty (960) seas all This property is located at the outskirts of the city of Casper, and the Syndicate has located their first well to be drilled upon this land at a point within two miles and a half of the City of Casper, and about three- quarters of a mile from the railroad and pipe line. The property owned by the Syndicate has long been looked upon by prominent Geologists as containing oil bearing structure and it is estimated that the prolific oil bearing sands wil! be encountered at a depth of less than Three Thousand (3,000) feet. The Syndicate proposes to spend all of the money raised from the sale of units, in actual dev aaa work upon. the land: In'g pursuance of their ptinis, the Syn- dicate has contracted for the erection of a standard rig, for which the timbers "are now being hauled to Pe oud and bids will be submitted within the next ten days, for-the: g of a well, a contract for which will be let to drill to a depth of Thirty-five Hundred (3,500) feet if neces- sary. It is estimated that this well complete and the production thereof placed on d pipe line will cost approximately Fifty Thousand ($50,000) Dollars. However, it is the plan of the Syndicate to raise a larger sum than Fifty Thousand. ($50,000. 00) Dollars, in order to be prepared for any con- tingency that might anse. Units in This Syndicate Are Being Sold at the Rate of One Hundred ($100.00) Dollars each and Lieut. Alexander McPherson, who recently returned from France, and who is well known in this vicinity for his sterling character, will be in charge of the funds of the Company, and will see that all monies are expended for the benefit of the Unit holders. Approximately Six Hun- dred Fifty (650) Units will be placed upon the market for sale and a large number have been sold at the present time and inquiry has been coming in from outside sources which indicates. that within avery Coe time, the entire issue will be taken up. : lt Is the Purpose of the Syndicate to stmt. drilling operations soon after May Ist as possible and not later than May 15th, unless weather conditions prevent. The contract of the sie will be let on the basis of paymént, after completion of the well and yments will be made until the well is finally completed. In this way, the U Unit holders will be assured of getting Value Received for their money.
