It is believed the company also desires to reduce the par value of its stock from $100 to a Icwer unit. The belief that special developments aré pending in the affairs of this company is increased through the recent trans. action whereby 25,000 shares of Stand- ard of Indiana stock were exchanged for 100,006 shares of Midwest Refining stock owned by certain individuals. “Distribution of stock by Standard Oil, Company of Indiana’ requires only action by the directors, inasmuch as the stockholders already have voted an increase in the capital stock from $30,- 000,000 to $100,000,000. Allowing for the 25,000 shares exchanged for Mid- west Refining stock, it would be pos- sible for the company to declare a 200 ber cent stock dividend. At the end of last year the @empany had a sur- plus of $105,000,000, equal to $350 a share fa the $30,000,000 outstanding.” Osage Drilling Contract Let.

In it New York Oil has fractional interests on 4,240 acres. These fractions combined constitute about 700 acres. We have an interest in 60 oil wells already drilled on the 4,240 acres. On one of our less valuable 160-acre tracts the production amounts to over $950,000 since October, 1917. This is from three sand wells and two shale wells which have been brought in from time to time. This oil started selling for $1.50 per barrel and rose gradually to $2.75. This acreage will do better than it has done. The company will pay an 8 per cent dividend from its share of this ‘income, which will be released after August 25, 1920. President Wilson has signed two leases authorized by the General Leasing Law which cover the 820 acres in the northwest quarter and ' the southwest quarter of section 2, township 39, range 79. There are six wells on this land. Salt Creek oil is the equal of Pennsylvania crude, which sells at $6.10 a barrel. Salt Creek crude sells for $2.75 a barrel and will likely rise from time to time. , New York Oil has capital stock of the par value, of $8,442,850 issued and outstanding. If it had only its Salt Creek properties, the intrinsic value of its stock would be about $100 per share, but it has about ‘double! that amount of property. HOLD NEW YORK OIL FOR DIVIDENDS FRANK G.
