(3) Land at Bell Block, and contiguous to land held by the Taranaki (N.Z.) Oil Wells, Limited; And for carrying on boring operations for petroleum on the said land. The total area of land to be acquired is 51 acres (more or less), situated •In the County of Taranaki, New Zealand. The land at Moturoa is favorably situated between the bores of the Taranaki (N.Z.) Oil Wells, Limited—(No. 2 bore is about 200 yards to the East; No. 5 -bore is about 300 yards East North East; and No. 3 bore is about 150 yards to the West, all of which are flowing oil)—and four or more wells could be sunk with everv prospect of getting payable oil, therefore commercial wells ■will 'be sunk, and not prospecting bores. The Directors anticipate being able to arrange with the Taranaki (NX) Oil Wells, limited, for a supply of gas •from Nos. 2 or 3 bores for fuel purposes, and the latter Company has intiinatied its willingness to enable this to be done. This would effect a great saving in 'the working expanses of the Company. 1 The vendors of the properties* have Ibeen most liberal in their, terms (including as they do the acceptance of so many shares a« part payment), which indicate complete confidence in the success of, the venture. The properties of the Company -being all FREEHOLD and FREE OF ROYALTIES, the .Shareholders will gain the whole of the profits on the oil won, •which should add considerably to the value of the'shares, and prove a lucrative investment. In order to minimise the cost of clerical work, applications for a less number than five shares trill not be entertained. The Promoters, by making the time of payment of calls to extend over a •period of practically 'two years, anticipate the shares will be readily taken up all classes of investors.
