Twenty years ago yon would have been
disappointed if drilling on your land had
produced only natural gas. "No oil... nr'^ht as
well be a dry hole!” Even today, if your land is far
from a pipe line,'a gas well would be a disappointment, for GAS IS WORTH NOTHING
UNLESS SOLD! That’s iwhat it means to have a pipe line near your land; a market for
your gas—new wealth for your own family and hundreds.of other families in the area.
Last year the United Gas Corporation and its associated companies, Union Producing and
United Gas Pipe Line, had 278,000 acres of Texas land under lease or owned in fee. United
Gas is marketing gas for thousands of land-owners and royalty-owners through its 12,000
miles of main and distribution lines. This is only one of the ways the United Gas companies
are helping to build prosperity, creating payrolls and jobs, benefiting every resident of Texas
in one way or another. <
