Another factor pointing to a rec
ord-breaking entry list this year is
the multiplicity of smaller shows
which have been held throughout
the state and will serve as feeders"
for the state show. Among the doz-
ems Of communities staging fairs,
harvest festivals and agricultural
shows this fall, at which corn has
been one of the principal exhibits,
are Enderlin. Hazen Hazelton, Stras-
burg, New Salem, Turtle Lake, Wash

Butte, Williston. Northwood, Stark
weather, Langdon, Bottineau, Beu-
lah and many others. The best corn
samples from these shows will come
to the state show. Numerous local
corn production contests have been
arranged, also.
Cash premiums are offered to
point-wnners as we'll as large cup

Corn Will Be Crowned in
North Dakota Nest Week

in history, previous records in num-
Der of entries are expected to be
eclipsed substantially this year. o.
son also declares the quality of this
years crop is the best since 1923.
For this reason, H. p. Goddard,
secretary of the show, expects more
than 300 farmers from throughout
the state to send entries to the show
this year. Last years show had
1904 exhibits from IS counties. Two
hundred fifty-one different farmers
won 424 awards in 1881.
E. NJ. Granlund, DeLamere farm
err, expects to be in the race for in
dividual honors this year after his
victory in this department in 1881,
and reports from Emmons county
indicate farmers in that county are
doubling efforts to win another coun-
ty title. Benson county, winner in
the restricted district In 1881, hopes
to retain it's honors with another
championship display.
Alfalfa, Clover, Too

States Attorney Harvey j. Miller for

that the withdrawal petitions did not

Government Permit Royalty

In the case Of the permit royal.
ty owner, his royalty is surely
good for 20 years after the lease
is issued and amy additional per-
iod thereafter for which the new
lease is issued, providing the
original permittee maintains his
rights.
Until lease IS issued by the
government, the permit owners
rights are subjected to cancella-
ton, should he fail to comply
with the requirements Of the
government. So up to the issu-
ance Of the lease, permit royalty
is in the same status as lover.
riding royalty on non-produo-
ing lands. Overriding royalty
is subject to the lease and Is
therefore q contract that expires
with the lease. Title to landown-
er's royalty is DECIDED and be-
comes q part Of the title to the
land.
AFTER the government lease
is issued, the permit royalty be-
comes just as gOOd-if not a
little better than landowners
royalty for 20 years. Ordinarily
this win measure the life Of an
oil field. No government leases
have been in operation for 20
years, but there IS every proba-
bility that at the end Of the 90
year period, leases win be renew
ed for another 90 years, to de-
pendable operators.
Of course, the wording Of the
assignment has erything to do
with the perpetuity of permit
royalty. That is the business Of
experienced land attorneys who
KNOW, so not a hazard in our
case.
Those are some Of the disad-
vantages or shortcomings Of Per
NIT royalty.

A recent Lrdn8acGl0u on GOi
den Dome involving royalty OF
Government Permit lands
brought several inquiries regar
ding permit royalties. We have
issued bulletins on this subject
ia the past, but these bulletins
are out of print. The subject
is interesting enough to the in
dustry at large that we win de
vote this space to q discussion
Of permit royalties.
The original owner Of all land
in Montana was the United
States government. Individuals
acquired this land by filing home
stead applications and proving
up" on tracts up to $40 acres.
The homesteader, previous to
1919 owned all rights, from the
sky to the core Of the earth.
In 1919 the government began
Withdrawing mineral rights from
homestead entry in certain areas.
A man may file a homestead on
GAO acres Of land in Montana
tOday-there is still a lot Of land
open to entry-but the govern
ment retains the oil rights in
most areas. But the government
allows the development of its oil
lands-except when the big In
terests or big politicians decide
to allow otherwise.
Provision is made in the law
that person Of responsibility
can file an application for the
right to prospect for oil and
gas on government lands or lands
on which mineral rights belong
to the government. Before
Hoover became president, the
required permit own
ers to drill a well within 18
months after the permit was
granted. If he failed to find oil,
he was given an extension Of
time. Congress has several times
extended the time allowed until
It is now IL years. A permit
can be held for II years before
commercial oil or gas is found
IN the land hereunder.
After oil is found, the govern
nent allows the permit owner to
Ielect one-fourth Of the permit
IS preferential" area. The pre-
area maximum Of
40 acres-has a reservation to
he government of only 5 per
.ent royalty. On the balance of
he permit, the government has
sliding scale royalty which
anges up to 30 per cent, Deepen
ing on the size of the wells and
ravity Of the oil. So the per
ait owner has z ~ per cent
oyalty-the operator getting
z IL per cent, the government
percent and the permit owner
IL percent, making the total
{ 100 percent Of the oil.
The government then issues a
EASE on the land, in place Of
le permit. This lease continues
II 20 years and may thereafter
E renewed.
That shows the manner in
hich the two kinds Of royalty
Ne acquired. The landowner
aving title vested through a
1mestead previous to 1919 gets
IL per cent royalty-one-
ghth Of the oil. His right is
,rpetual. Whenever any oil is
.oduced on his land, he gets his
ghth.

joy.
One Of the investors on Golden
Dome upon receiving bis assign
ment could not understand why
the assignment did not describe
q particular royalty. Instead. II
provided that he was to receive
royalty on the preferential area
OF the permit, and the description
OF the entire permit followed.
The buyer OF this royalty nat
uraily wants to participate in
the PRODUCTION and not have
a royalty that may not be pro-
ductive. We recall the instance
OF the Moore permit in Kelvin
Sunburst field. The John Moore
permit covered about 100 ac-
res. II was well scattered over
the neld and since the discovery
well was in the west end OF the
field, the first drilling on the
Moore permit was on the west
end.
Royalty owners who bought
royalty on the John Moore
permit were given preferential
area" royalty. But had the aver
age investor chosen, he would
have Immediately selected part Of
Section 6-34-2W, as the preferen-
tial area when the first well was
started. But promising as that
location seemed, it was a dry
hole. A second dry hole was drill
ed by the same company and the
outlook for the Moore permit
royalty was pretty gloomy.
Then followed the deal where
by j. II. Hamilton of Great
Falls succeeded in getting the
Moore permit into the hands of
the Queen City Oil company of
Regina. lie insisted that they
should drill THREE wells. The
first two were located in 35-
85-2W and it looked as though
the preferential area would be
in that section. These two wells
were DRY. Then the third well
was located, on the EAST edge of
the permit, as far as possible
from the areas first thought to
be choice" and this third well
came in A NINE HUNDRED
BARREL WE'LL.
The royalty owners were then
that their rights, after
years Of waiting, were TO be es-
ablished on the tract where a
hort time later a gusher making
1853 barrels a day was followed
y a 1000 barrel well and 1926
,arrel well topped the list Of

History viii repeat itself ia our
Golden Dome royalty. We have
bought royalty on the preferen-
tial area sf 9 government permit
in good standing. Title is absO-
lntely perfect and win stay that
way, since all Of the royalty is
in the hands Of our members.
When the Ohio OH Company
brings in its well on the adioin-
ing. tract, there viii be no imme-
date designation Of the exact To-
cation Of Onr royalty. Instead,
the permit holder viii wait IN
til PRODUCTION is FOUND
ON THIS PERMIT. Then he
win designate THAT spot as the
preferential area. Il may be
where we think it win be-rsar
the Ohio well. It may be at the
opposite end Of the permit
which is four times as large a.
the area our royalty covers. So
we actually have FOUR TIMES
the chance Of getting oil on q
Government permit as compared
with 9 single tract Of fee roy
atty. The man who owns royalty
on the preferential area of a
265O-acre permit (the maximum
allowed) gets participation in
the permit owners choice Of the
BEST $40 acres.
The government at the present
time viii not allow development
Of government permit land but
let someone start draining the
government land, and the De-
partment Of the Interior will see
that there is immediate drilling.
We know Of an instance in the
Cut Bank field where a govern
ment permit is being drained by
the O'Neil gassers. The govern
ment served notice on the permit
owner to either drill a well or
pay royalties to the government.
