THE ILLINOIS-COLORADO OIL, GAS & COAL COMPANY 



On Julv 10, 1902, our stock was selling for 5 cents a share. Mr. A. V. Roth bought 2,000 shares of stock 



for §100. 



ON JANUARY lath, 1903 (SIX months), his stock was worth §500 at market price, and it will be worth 



§1,000 by July, 1903. 



Who showed the best judgment, Mr. Roth or the rnan who placed his §100 in the bank, and on January 



1st received si. 50 interest? 

 THE ILLINOIS=COLORADO OIL, GAS & COAL COHPANY owns outright 1,040 acres of what 

 experts pronounce THE FINEST OIL LANDS IN THE UNITED STATES. Judge the quality of 

 Colorado oil bv the following prices: Texas oil is worth 10 cents a barrel: California oil is worth from 10 

 to 20 cents per barrel, and COLORADO OIL IS WORTH FROM $1.50 to $2.00 AT THE WELL. Our 

 property is situated in the Great South Park, Colorado, within the belt marked out by Professor Hayden, 

 the expert 



EMPLOYED BY THE LNITED STATES GOVERNMENT 



to drsw a map of the geological formation in Colorado. We are only a short distance from Florence, 

 where well No. 119 of the United Oil Company has produced §1,000,000 since it was opened in 1901. The 

 Florence Oil Company has one well that has produced over §800,000. Both these wells are still producing. 

 Many thousand small investors have become independent for life and the large investors have become 

 millionaires through a judicious investment in oil. as the following table will show: 



$10 INVESTED IS THE UNION OIL COflPANY IN 1900 IS WORTH $15,000 

 $10 INVESTED IN THE HOflE OIL COHPANY IN 1900 IS WORTH 4,500
