The log of the Country club well shows that the Hygjene sand—the best known market in tho fleld—was picked up about 170 feet shallower than it was found in the Whitaker gusher and other wells.

According to the Ofl and Gas Tai nal of Tula, the Hygiene sand was encountered by Ache and Brande! at a dépth of 1,246 feet. The Ol! Jour. nal is also authoritative for the state- ment that the Hygiene sand was al- #0 encountered in the Whitaker well of Union Oll of California, at from 1,115 to 1,190 feet. The Atlantic well is checking out with other wells tn the field and it probably will bo completed at a slightly shallower depth than the Whitaker. “Geologists havé shown the field trend to be northwest — southeast, and Atlantic's acreage ') well within the contour lines and in my opin: jon {8 right square on top of the domo.

PRICE ADVANCE CREATES “seivSeestentrcee WONDERFUL PROFIT OPPORTUNITY | Indications are that the initial limited allotment of Atlantic Petroleum shares, now offered at 1 cent each, will be exhausted before the deadline date set for the big price advance, midnight, February 28. Management of Atlantic Petroleum has announced that the price positively will be advanced 50 or 100 per cent—OR MORE—on or BEFORE February 28. Wise investors, realizing that this price advance is pregnant with enormous profit-making possibilities, are buying all of the Atlantic Petroleum at the 1-cent price that they can afford to carry so that they will be in line for the big, quick clean-up which is most assuredly expected. Atlantic Petroleum Country Club No. 1 is drilling night and day below 1,300 feet with all possible speed. The drillers encountered the Hygiene sand—the best known marker in the Ft. Collins field—about 170 feet higher up than it was found in the world famous Whit- taker gusher, which positively indicates that the Country Club well is higher up on tho structure—or what is believed to be the top of the dome—than any other well yet drilled in this field. ‘ This is believed to prove positively that the Atlantic Petroleum rig is sitting right square on top of the great Mother Pool of this wonderful gusher oil field and many veteran oii men predict that the Atlantic Petroleum well will be as large— OR LARGER—than any heretofore drilled in this rich area. Atlantic Petroleum is the premier independent of Northern Colorado. The Country Club well is the closest independent drilling operation to the world famous Whitaker. For a square deal and quick action you cannot find a better stock. Atlantic Petroleum owns two 80-acre leases close in to production, adjoining holdings of Union Oil of California, in the Wellington-Ft. Collins field. ; UNION AM Cannes ©, © arene. reer ene WEST EL ATLANTIC PETROLEUM CORPORATION 834 FIRST NATIONAL BANK BUILDING DENVER COLORADO RESERVE SHARES REMITTANCE FOL- LOWS NAME Capitalization $500,000 Prospectus dated 711 Seventeenth St. ATLANTIC Petroleum Corporation Fully Paid and Forever Non-Assessable 334 First National Bank Bldg., Denver, Colo. 6.9-24 filed with Secretary of State. ~ Copy on request, Atlantic Petroleum Corporation owns a total of 960 acres of leases, and in ad dition has acquired an undivided interest in 109,800 ¢ res of state leases in New Mexico close to a promising well being drilled by one of the Standard Oil subsid- iaries.
