A Sound & Profitable Investment. TARANAKI PETROLEUM PREFERENGE SHARES. Dear Sir or Madam.— I 1)1'",' to call your iiltr:nio:i to tho Preference Shares of tlie above Company a- a SOUND tin;! PROFITABLE investment, ami particularly as a mean* of ADVANCING your own interests and those of the province. The following are a few points, stated as concisely a.s possible, that 1 tru-t will appeal to von:--The Company ha- PROVED that oil exists in PAYABLE quantities and of a quality UNSURPASSED in the world. The Company is financially SOUND, but additional capital will largely ADD to its prosperity. Bv taking up its .Preference Shares, which carry a preferential dividend of V/> per cent, you make it STRONG financially. Being .strong financially, you place it in the best position to make the BEST POSSIBLE TERMS with a purchaser, being INDEPENDENT. You enable it to 1 IRTHER DEVELOP its oil deposits, and consequently to a«k the utmost price possible when selling. iY®u assist it to erect a REFINERY, and .so obtain the BEST VALUE for its oil product'. What does the erection of a Refinery mean to the District and the Company? It will enable the Company to pay DIVIDENDS and make your investment a HIGHLY PRO!I TABLE one. It will mean the ESTABLISHING of various INDUSTRIES. INDUSTRIE* mean the employment of a LARGE amount of LABOR. The HOUSING ot this labor will mean MORE EMPLOYMENT for all tradesmen, there bein- practically no empty houses in tiie town of New Plymouth. MORE LABOR will he required at the Stores to cope with the additional business. MORE CAPITAL will he CIRCULATED. NEW FIRMS will -pring up and the old ones will employ ADDITIONAL hands. More FARM PRODUCE will be required of all sort-, which will mean higher a .id MORE STABLE values for laud. The oil deposits BEING AT A TORT occupy an almost, UNIQUE position, the heavy cost of PIPING from intend deposits being SAVED. The position of its properties may also give it a MONOPOLY of REFINING. The refined products can also be handled at a MINIMUM of expense, and necessary supplies imported cheaply. FUEL for industries will he CHEAP. There will he a LARGE INCREASE of SHIPPING at the harbor. If you*already HOLD SHARES, it is all the more REASON for your TAKING MORE, as the placing of all the Preference Shares will give those you already hold additional value, and the paid-up shares that are now at a discoant will reach par or be at a premium. Do vou want your DISTRICT TO PROGRESS? Then help the most promising of all your industries by filling in the accompanying application form and forwarding it to me, with is per share applied for, or to the company. You can help according to your means. Ten shares involve onlv a small annual outlay, as the payment is spread over nearly THREE YEARS if all the money should he called up. If onlv this ,r..,U number is taken up by all, the amount required would be largely OVER-SUBSCRIBED, and the preference share* would soon nu* at a PEhMIUM. Under 7000 shares are now required, so send in your application promptly and the Refinery can be started. WALTER BEWLEY, SIIAIiEBROKER, NEW PLYMOUTH. [Cut this out and send to me].
