An Opportunity for the Small Investor
The Oil Fields of Texas and Okla-

than any other disooveiy of modern
times. Opportunities were offered the
public who were not in a position to make
large investments , but nliany cif whom
have since become independently rich
from the profits of their original small •
investments.

During the four years I spent iu the Peace River country I watched the oil development in all its stages.
Eight wells have already been drilled in and near Peace River Town. Every well has brought in oil --not one well has been
drilled dry.
Pay oil has been discovered in at least five of the wells drilled, a record seldom attained in any new oil field on this continent.
That oil would be discovered in Peace River was predicted by George Dawson, Canada's most eminent geologist, over
thirty years ago. During the past five years a score of the world's best known geologists and oil experts have visited Peace River,
and in every Instance these men of science endorsed the prophecy of Sir George Dawson of long ago.
A valuable by-product of the oil fields of Peace, River is wet gas, from which, by simple process, gasoline is extracted.
From three to five million feet of wet gas belches from the wells already drilled into the gas stratum.
Every man who has visited the wells at Peace River knows that oil is there, because lee has seen it; but the wealth of the
earth, be It gold, silver or oil, ie of no value unless money is efficiently spent for its development.
I believed the geologists andoil experts of this continent when they said that by drilling deeper Into the oil sands at Peace
River the BIG OIL POOL would be discovered.
Because of this belief and my personal knowledge of the actual discovery of oil in the wells drilled at Peace River I feel I
am acting in the best interests of Canada when I recommend the Canadian people to join with Peace -River Petroleums, Limited,
and help to secure the big production of oil for our industries, ..., !

In Ten Years
Farmers have learned that it pays
to put back on the farm as much of
the plant food removed as they can
conveniently, ;but still a good many
neglectto duo it that know, and some
' others will not give the matter much
consideration, These go right along
•selling their farm's fertility, which
measures -the farm's real value. Farm
buyers are coming to take these things
, into consideration and a wise buyer
will find out how the farm has been
treated and whether a large part of
the fertility has 'been sold before he
invests. He can build up the soil in
"'time but he knows that he will be the
loser for the time it takes, him to do
this.
Now to keep the farm from losing:
any of its fertility we will be obliged
to replace somewhat more than the
manure that stock' eating the crops
will produce, but many farmers do
this by judicious feeding of boughten
feeds, as''well as by growing legumes:
Alfalfa is a very strong soil builder,
for -it' not only takes;; nitrogen from
the air and stores it, in lits' roots to
become a part, of the soil, but it is
very rich inplant, food. which it re-
. turns, and when we buy alfalfa to feed
we are buying a valuable fertilizer at
the same time -one that -contains
about .fifty pounds of nitrogen, ten
pounds of phosphoric acid, and forty
pounds of potash to the ton. If we
buy bran to feed with it we get with
each thousand pourids twenty-six
