A va.it amount of work now remains t« be done which the
intervention of war has uecrMjvrily delayed aud irrumu-
lated. an<l the result is that • • • • • very large capital

Work more—

But we can't continue increasing our
production unless we continue increasing
our railroad facilities.
The farms, mines and factories cannot
increase their output beyond the capacity
of the railroads to haul their products.
Railroads are now near the peak of their
carrying capacity.
Without railroad expansion—more en-
gines, more cars, more tracks, more ter-
minals—there can be little increase in
productiorftp|||^^ :/j
But this country of ours is going to
keep right on growing—and the railroads
must grow with it.
To command in the investment markets
the flow of new capital to expand railroad
facilities—and so increase production —
there must be public confidence in the
future earning power of railroads.
The nation's business can grow only as
fast as the railroads grow.

Production at this time means am-
ple employment for our labor all
the time.
We must increase legitimate busi-
ness and farm production by every
means in our power.
From the standpoint of patriotism
alone we solicit inquiries for funds
which look to such increase in
production.

To (he Citizens of Canadian and
Vicinity
The impression seems to prevail
in this comunity that Mr. H.
Khaller is putting money into the
drilling of the Fort Worth-Cana-
jdian Oil Company's deep test well
mi the Shaller-Tubb Ranch near
| Canadian, Texas, and that the
funds arising from his sales of
I acreage go to aid that enterprise.
Such, however, is not the case. He
is not selling acreage for us, and
will not be at any time hereafter,
lie owns some acreage within the
boundary of our lease, as the rec-
ords in the county clerk's office will
show, and he has the same right,
of course, that any individual has,
to offer his acreage for sale on its
merits. We do not presume to say
here that anyone has intentionally
lead the people into this error, but
we do feel that the public is enti-
tled to know the facts.
The members of the Fort Worth-
Canadian Oil Company, with offices
in the Moody Hotel at Canadian.
Texas, are putting up the money
I to drill this well, and no other par-
ties have any property or financial
interest in the well save the royal-
ty of one-eighth reserved to the
owners of the lands covered by our
I leases.
j Our drilling contractor, Mr. W.
E. Owens, has executed and deliv-
ered a bond in the sum of $40,000
to guarantee that he will drill this
well without unnecessary delay to
ia depth of 3,000 feet unless oil or
gas in paying quantities is found
I at a lesser depth, and the bond is
of record in the county clerk's of-
fice in Hemphill County, Texas, in
| oil and gas lease records Vol. 32
I at page 294, to which we would re-
spectfully refer anyone wishing to
know who is back of this well prop-
osition and guaranteeing its com-
pletion,
We very much regret the seem-
ing necessity for us to publish a
statement of this kind, but the sit-
uation is not one of our own mak-
ing and we feci we owe it not only
to ourselves but to the public gen-
erally to state the facts frankly. |
We want to be fair with everybody 1
land we hope thereby to merit and
receive fair treatment for our-;
: selves.
Very respectfully. ,
Fort Worth-Canadian Oil Com
pany. By R. L. Allen.

Credit Losses
Why help pay for the other fellow's ac-
count? Everyone paying cash and those
paying every thirty days have to help pay
for the credit losses (there are always some
in any business extending credit), because
any wiSe and judicious business man also
adds these losses to the expense of doing
business, and you eventually have to help
pay it.
We have no credit losses. Therefore you
pay no additional cost in the doing of busi-
ness. You get this advantage when you
buy of a strictly cash establishment. Isn't
this fair to everyone? It is absolutely the
fairest method by which this rule can be
fixed. Think it over!
