                    SEVEN J STOCK FARM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
            NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS




NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

  The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are
unaudited and include the accounts of Seven J Stock Farm, Inc. (the "Company")
and its wholly owned subsidiary, Madison Pipe Line Company.

  The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and
related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations.  The accompanying unaudited interim
condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the
Company's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders.

  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to
present fairly the Company's financial position as of January 31, 1996 and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods ended
January 31, 1996 and 1995.  Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring
items.  The results of operations for the periods ending January 31, 1996 and
1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.

  Interim results are subject to year-end adjustments and audit by independent
public accountants.

  Certain items and amounts for the prior period have been reclassified.  The
reclassifications have no effect on net income.

NOTE 2 - PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

  The reported tax rate in the first three months of fiscal year 1996 was
12.7%, which is the Company's current estimate of the effective tax rate for
the entire year.  The reported tax rate in the corresponding period of the
previous year was 16.9%.  The Company's effective tax rate for the year ended
October 31, 1995 was 28.6%.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



                             Results of Operations

  Pipeline Operations - Revenue for the three months ended January 31, 1996
decreased $4,000 or 9.5% as compared to the three months ended January 31,
1995.  The decline is the result of a decrease in natural gas transmitted
through the system.

  Net Oil and Gas Royalties - Revenue for the three months ended January 31,
1996 decreased $6,000 or 19.3% as compared to the three months ended January
31, 1995.  The decline is due to a decrease in production.

  Pasture and Ranch Lease Rentals - Revenue for the three months ended January
31, 1996 decreased $6,000 or 16.7% as compared to the three months ended
January 31, 1995.  The decline is attributable to an adjustment of the rental
rate.

  Operating Expenses - Expenses for the three months ended January 31, 1996
increased $2,000 or 9.5% as compared to the three months ended January 31,
1995.  Ranch lease expense increased due to higher maintenance costs of the
ranch lands.

  Administrative and General Expenses - Expenses for the three months ended
January 31, 1996 decreased $2,000 or 5% as compared to the three months ended
January 31, 1995.  Increase in accounting costs was the primary cause of the
increase in administrative and general expenses.

  Provision for Income Taxes - Provision for income taxes for the three months
ended January 31, 1996 decreased $4,000 or 80% as compared to the three months
ended January 31, 1995.  This is due to a decrease in income before provision
for income taxes.


                        Liquidity and Capital Resources

  The Company used $59,000 in operating activities for the three months ended
January 31, 1996 compared to generating $30,000 of net cash flow from
operating activities for the three months ended January 31, 1995.  The Company
anticipates that adequate working capital will be provided from future
operations.  Cash required for expenditures for property and equipment will be
provided in part by redemption of short-term certificates of deposit.
