It covers the Oil Interests of the State and will expand with them. Its eggs are not all iu one basket. It offers 5Ó chances to one compared to any other oil company. It is,as sure to pay large dividends as there is oil in California. Its plan is a new one and the best and safest yet conceived. Business men endorse the plan as do sensible, prudent peo ple everywhere. Why buy the stock of an oil company having limited re sources when you can in one company invest in the entire oil field of California? .Why do it? The California Consolidated Petroleum Company has men be hind it of capital and high reputation. There are few people on the Pacific Coast who do not know some of the directors at least by reputation.
