No wonder that Kentuckians abroad arc ashamed to inform the public that they are from that disreputable and flisgrrwed commonwealth. Senator Rob Taylor of Tonnes see was the prime factor in the downfall of Senator Carmack whose tragic death oecured a few days ago. After serving two terms as governor of that utatc, Taylor went upon the lecture platform and delivered lectures on such subjects as "Sentiment,' "The Paradise of Fools." etc. Some people f the South thought it was great dope, but an Oregon audience would have hooted him oil tho platform. His next move was to get Carmack 's r,eat in the Senate and succeeded in starting a political feud that ended in Carmack's ncath. 7 per cent allowed on all monev left with me to loan.

FORTUNES OF THE W0RED ARE FOUNDED ON OIL Joe Chanslor, now several times a millionaire, was not bo long ago, a clerk in Los Angeles. He borrowed some money for tho purpose of operating in California oil; the result was that it made him one of the richest men in the state. John A. Bunting, formerly a brakeman for the Southern Pacific, through the investment of $170.00 in California oil land became a millionaire. We could tell you of innumerable others. Why were Bunting, Chanslor, and many others, who made their money through investments in oil, successful? Because they were shrewd, levelheaded, observing men possessing unbounded confidence in the great future of the California oil fields and the oil industry. Tho demand for oil is increasing daily. The consumption far exceeds the output. Several oil com panies paid substantial dividend when oil was selling at fifteen cents a barrel. Oil is now selling at SIXTY CENTS PER BARBEL at the well. The total dividends for the year P.K)S, from all the oil companies doing business in California, not including the Standard, will probably reach the ?r, 000, 000 mark, and reach th $10,000,000 for the year 11HV.). Therefore the natural conclusion to arrive at, is, INVEST IN OIL SECURITIES. INVEST AT ONCE. Wo are offering for sale a limited number of shares on what we consider to bo ono of the best Companies operating in Kern Co., in fact, in Cal ifornia. We refer to tho stock of the KERN ASSOCIATED OIL COMPANY. The stock of the KERN ASSOCIATED OIL COMPANY is the best oil proposition ever offered tho investment public. The company owns free of incumbrance FORTY ACRES IN THE VERY HEART OF THE KERN RIVER OIL DISTRICT, and situated on the Southern Pacific Railroad. It adjoins the San Joaquim Oil & Development Co's property which was recently merged with the Associated Oil Co., WHOSE STOCK IS NOW SELLING AT $31.73 PER SHARE. It also adjoins the justly famous Discovery well where oil was first discovered in tho Kern River oil district. THE KERN ASSOCIATED OIL COMPANY has two wells on its property. Well No. 1 IS IN OIL and gives about sixty-five barrels of oil per day. With a greater depth and a more approved pump the production will be greatly in crease d. The company desires to sink four more wells and to install modern compressed air pumps. We believe that well No, 2, will, with greater depth, produce a larger and inexhaustablo cil supply as are the other wells on ndjoining properties. We are offering a limited number of shares in this Company at twenty cents per share. Do you realize what that means? It means that in purchasing this stock you become interested in a company that can produce the cil. It is not a case of "They may," "They should," but "THEY ARE." Let us again impress upon you these highly important facts: The property is a producer, is en tirely surrounded by reliable producing properties, that there is sufficient acreage (forty acres) to justify the drilling of forty more wells all of which would bo in the very core of the richest oil pro ducing districts in the world. Remember that Kern Co. produces as much oil as any other three oil producing counties in California. Shipping facilities could not be belter for the property adjoins the Southern Pacific tracks. Tho company has valuable assets in improvements: Two wells, derrick, tanks, tool and bunk houses, etc., etc. Befor? accepting the fiscal agency of tho Kern Associated Oil Company we thoroughly investi gated every detail pertaining to the Company and its property. We dill not take snap judgment, we r.over do, consequently want to assure you that the stock of this Company at twenty cents per share is the most unparalled opportunity for the investor that ever came under our observation. We sincerely lu Hove that the Kern Associated Oil Co. is destined to pay dividends as surely and as regularly as are now being paid by the Associated Oil and other companies on adjoining proj ert'es and we see no reason why within twelve months the Kern Associated stock should not be quoted at many time- its selling price. You can invest any amount from twenty (LV) dollars up to twenty thousand (0,000) I'o'lars. Wo allow you five to) per cent en cash subscriptions. You can purchase stock on the easy monthly ! Ian if you so desire, one-fifth down and one-fifth per month. Semi in your subscription at once. don't nr. lay. tiii: stock okthk kkkn associated oil co. is tiik pe.st p.uy ox tub market today. JOS.
