From the Starbuck Times, Friday, March 30, 1923. 

The Minnewaska Oil Company, recently organized by local men, expects to begin operations next week. Their truck was recently shipped to Glenwood and Mr. Forbord drove it over here. This week the truck is painted a beautiful orange color with the name of the company in blue and orange colors. The storage tanks have been shipped and are expected to arrive and be erected the latter part of this week. The tanks will be set on a gravel base just west of the present Manhattan tanks. 

For the present they will operate only the wholesale tanks but plan to erect a service station later. The company has an option on the tailor shop site for a service station but so far has not made any definite selection of a site. 

The new tanks will make four wholesale stations in Starbuck. The first tanks erected were the Manhattan Oil Co.’s, now the White Eagle. The Standard Oil Co. then put in tanks, and a couple of years ago, the Starbuck Oil Co., owned by local men, set up tanks.
