Paul, Minn, OF TEXAS AS WITNESSED BY COR- RESPONDENT OUR VALUABLE HOLDINGS Mr. Wilde, the president, and Mr. Man ning, the secrotary of the company, were the first fn the fleld, arriving at Beaumont shortly after the famous Lucas gusher eame in, and the most valuable propertics secured by them at that time are now controlled by this company. No company now at work In (he field has attractive proposition. mor has any holdings in and about tho proven ofl district as the United States Fuel O Company The extent of acres does not necessarily add strength to a company: the strength is added by the position of the propertics the proven district The company owns valuablo deeded oil lands in Jefferson, Liberty, Galveston s Brazoria countles, Texas. The titles @ perfect. The company has no leased lands has no options, no contracts for purchase and no royalties to pay. The company also holds, as a further assurance of success, and which is a part of the company's present assots, large blocks of fully pald and non assessable €tock in other companies fn that fleld which possess valuable lands now cov- erlng the entire ofl distriet. The object of these investments {« that should any com pany in which this company Is interested make any developments, or any strikes in any locality, it will add strength and profit to the United States Fuel Ol Company aside from its own real rty holdings. The following is a brief description of fts property and interests Sixty-four tracts, or parcels, of land In the J. W, Bullock & Brown surve of which adjoin the city limits of Beau- mont, also the American Oil and Refining company's holdings, G ialey and Spindle Top Helghts addition. Theso prop- erties lle about one mile north of the Lucas gusher and are surrounded on all sides by properties now being develaned Aslde from the oil value a part of t properties are now very valuable as 1e dence property to the city of Beaumor and lots have been eold adjoining these properties as high 0 to $1,600. Acre property in this Ic ¢ has sold as high as $10,000 per ac The company’s hold- ings in this survey are about 1215 acres. Another G0-acre tract of land located at High Island, Gaiveston county, adjoining which there is a natural gas well and strong cil indications. No other company now In the fleld has such holdings at High Island as the United States Fuel Oil Company. The entire tract adjoins the station, is close to tide water, and has many trans- portation facilities unsurpaseed In any other locality. Three acres close to this tract recently sold to the Guffey & Galey people for $800 an acre. High Island is the favorite property of the promoters of the Lucas well, and many experts In the field clalm High Island will in a short time be as valuable as Spiadle Top Helghts. Should this be true it is hard to estimate the enormous value of the holdings of this company. Another tract of 10 acres located close to Sour Lake, and adjoining the Gulfey & Galey, or Standard Oil holdings. Lands in this locality are held at $400 to $600 per acre. Much Improvement and development I8 going on at Sour Lake, as you will learn it you are keeping up to the situation. Another tract of 20 acres in Brazorla county, south of Alvin, in a locality close to the new strike, and wh ex-Governor Hogg and the Swayne Syndicate are now operating. Property ranges in this locality from $300 to $600 per acre. Another tract of 100 acres in Liberty county, immediately adjoining Jefferson county on the west, and in the neighbor- hood of the Guffey & Galey properties and the Sour Lake district. At present ofl land in this district varies in price from $100 to $400 per acre, and development work is being pushed vigorously. In addition to the described real prop- erties the Unlted States Fuel Ol Company holds large blocks of fully pald and non- asscssable stock in the following compantes, which are among the strougest in the fiea American Ol and Refining Company of Beaurzont, Texas. Drillers Oil Company of Beaumont. Vesuvius Oll Company of Beaumont. St. Paul and Texas Oll Company of Beau- mont. Grace OIl Company of Beaumont. Columbia Crude OIl Company of Beau- mont Buffalo Ol Company of Beaumont, Gober Oil Company of Beaumont Most all of the above companies are at work in the field and putting down wells, It 18 easy to see the additional advantage gained by the United States Fuel Ol Com- pany having possession of these holdings, 8s any developments made by either of them the United States Fuel Oil Company would reap a pro rata of their strike, A glance at the accompanying map wil show the location of the company's land, and their relative proximity to the ; fud. ¢ flowing It will also show the lands con- trolled by other companies in which this company has large interests. It will be observed that the company has not staked Its chances on one location, but has care- fully eelected properties of its own in and around the recognized and proven oil bear- ing territory, The capital stock of this company fs small; 1ts holdings are large, and ever. share 4 of stock In this company from the date of its iseue has an intrinsic cash val It cannot go buckward; It must advance, It would not be surprising that in a short timo theso shares will be selling at a dol- lar each or better, You Will See This Stock
