We wish to advise our friends who have purchased stock from us to hang on. The average stockholder went into this, win or lose, and for the purpose of assisting in making a thorough test for petroleum in North Dakota. We may bring in a small well or we may bring in a gusher, nothing but the drill will tell. It now looks as though “Blum Well” will be a winner, and we are anxious to see our present stockholders hang on and win with us.
