The Enormous Production of the California Oil Fields of 1899. ~“Ehe-outpatfor the California Oil Fields for 1899 is estimated at 15,000,000 barrels. This is a most remarkable showing and is more mineral weulth than the Klondike has ever produced in a-single year,and about equals the gold production of this State.The oil fields of Fresno county are} today offering opportunities for investment that surpass even the gold fields of the Klondike, The excitement is hourly increasing, and the year 1900 will undoubtedly see the greatest legitimate boom in oil and oil stocks that this country has ever experienced. One of the best oil claims in the famous Coalinga District is that owned by the Juanira Or Mintna AND DEVELopmmnt. Company. ‘Their property is on the great Kreyenhagen strata, and A. G. Walker, a Pennsylvania expert, pronounces this,the finest. oil land in the District. The shell reefs, the shale, surface indications and a_ veritable mound of oil sand are all present, exactely as in the Pennsylvania fields. The oil must certainly be there. The Directors of the Juanita are enthusiastic over the prospects and are offering 5000 shares of Treasury stock at 50.cents a share, (the regular price being $1), in order to raise money to pay for sinking the first well. The stock is selling rapidly and the entire issue of 5000 shares will undoubtedly be sold within a very short time. The office of the Juanita Oil Mining and Development Company is at 967 Broadway, Rooms 1 and 2, Oakland Alameda Co., Cala. The Directors an’ announce positively that no more than 5000 shares above -referred to will be sold at. such a low price, so if you would get. on the ground floor send in your orders at once. o-—— Card of Thanks,We, the undersighed,take this method of expréssing our sincere thanks to our many kind.friends who assisted us in any way in our late sad bereavement.
