- Everyone knows — there is nothing more important
to a natural gas company than supply-gas reserves attached
and ready for use.
Lone Star Gas Company has had a 50-year record of dependable,
adequate gas supply — except for the few early, trying years
when the Company was struggling to get started and remain in business.
Lone Star’s present gas supplies are being used up, and Lone Star
must continue, day by day, to add to its supply. These additional supplies
tire available for purchase only in the face of competition
from other pipelines. "
Lone Star will protect and maintain your gas supply,
but it must pay higher prices, if it is to continue to get the gas you need.
Satisfying your need for round-the-clock natural gas service is our obligation.
