Respect The Oil Farmers Rights

wealth was being removed
from the ground, never to be
replaced and transported from
the state to enrich others,
and therefore subject to heavy
taxation. The oil farmer
needs only to point to the
sand dunes Of New England
to show that the oil business
does not rob the common
wealth of its natural resources
as does the wheat farmer.
There was a time when
Eastern and Midwestern
states raised bumper wheat
crops as do Montana wheat
growers. Raw Montana
wheat land raises great crops
because the soil still holds its
content Of minerals which
make plant food. That was
true Of New England lands,
at one time. But as planting
continues, the plant food is
removed, the crops grow less
and less and in due course Of
time, it becomes so worthless
that even buck brush win not
grow on it. In New England
there is mile after mile Of
bleak, abandoned farm land,
blown into high sand dunes
and it is doubtful whether il
can ever be reclaimed.
The same thing is going on
in other parts of the country
where the soil is becoming de-
pIeted. Montanans viii not
always grow 40 bushels of
wheat to the acre. After the
land has been cropped for a
few years, Montana growers
will have to be content, as are
growers Of other mid-western
states, with 10-busheI crops.
Thereafter will come the a.
abandonment of the lands when
the crops are no longer com
mercial.
Contrast this with oil lands
and we find that the first oil
fields in America, in Penn
syIvania, are still producing.
Some oil farms have been to-
tally abandoned, it is true.
Many wells in Montana oil
fields have been abandoned
but there isn't the slightest
doubt in the world but that
they win all be re-drilled as
was the abandoned Spindletop
field, when deep sands become

the objective Of Montana oil
prospectors. The fife" Of
Cat Greek field was once de-
termined as 10 years but at
the end of 10 years it was stiIl
a mighty active and profitable
field and the exploration of
lower sands win make it
MORE profitable as the com
ing years bring this new de-
velopment. It is safe to
assume that Cat Creek win be
a bigger contributor to the
tax Golfers of the State Of
Montana 20 years hence than
will the world-famous Judith
Basin with its wonderful
wheat crops, so naturally the
oil farmer will have an inn
portant hand in the affairs of
the State and must be re-
spected.
Another factor is that the
oil farmer is becoming nuner-
Gus. This is due to the fact
that owners of oil lands are
dividing their ownership with
investors, this division being
known as ROYALTY. The
number Of royalty owners is
becoming greater and greater
until royalty owners are a
numerical factor in both busi-
ness and government. The
Texas company, as an ex-
ample, sends out Texaco gaso-
line literature to royalty own
ers on tracts from which it is
purchasing the oil, finding a
large resulting gallonage from
people who buy Texaco pro-
ducts simply because they feel
that they are in a manner
helping themselves by using
the products of a company
that is buying their oil. This
is combined with the further
fact that It is a simple method
of advertising which always
pays for the advertising goes
to people who, as a rule, have
the means to own and drive
automobiles and buy a lot of
gasoline and oil.
The political and financial
strength of the class of people
known as royalty owners is
to a place where leg
islators are inclined to think
in terms Of the ''oil farmers"
when matters pertaining to oil
are considered.
Montana oil and mining journal. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1931-1953, 1933-01-07

of marketing his crop. The
one man is the operator who
must buy all the machinery, do
all the hiring and pay all the
bills for everything. For this
service, the farmer gives the
operator seven-eighths Of all
the oil and gas he can recover
from the farm. The farmer
keeps one-eighth of all the oil
and gas for himself.
IF the wheat farmers soil is
very productive and he gets 40
bushels to the acre, he has a
larger payroll than # it is a
small crop but his profits are
larger. If he gets only a
small crop, his profit is de-
pendent on the economy of
his operations.
If the oil farmers soil is
very productive, he may re-
ceive a large amount of oil as
his one-eighth share. IF it is
nearly barren, he gets but
little.
The situation is so anala-
gous that there can be no ques-
tion but that the two farmers
have an equal standing. Yet
none would think of legisIat-
ing the farm machinery COM
panies, the threshing out
fits and farm laborers and
others with whom the wheat
farmer deals, out Of existence.
Why, then, should the opera
tor Of an oil farm be legislat
ed out of existence? Yet
the operator might
seem to deserve scant atten-
ton from the lawmakers. 1t
is quite surprising that opera
tors have not recognized this
fact long before, rather than
take the attitude that the land
owner is merely a necessary
evil and therefore a matter of
forebearance. National lead
ers in the industry now say to
the oil farmer what shall
WE do?1
The oil farmer goes into
The legislature with interests
y common with the wheat
farmer. There was a time
when it was considered that
he oil farmers land was to
,e depleted that the produc-
ion Of oil meant that some
hing of value to the common
Montana oil and mining journal. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1931-1953, 1933-01-07

Ii is a notable fact that in
all the conferences regarding
the oil industry in the last
year or two, there has always
been q place at the conference
table for the royalty owner.
Formerly disregarded in az
fairs of the oil industry, the
royalty owner (thc land
owner now has a place in the
council becaue operators
have recognized in the land
owner their best friend as a
partner in dealing with the
public.
An operator IS considered
more or less migratory and
looked upon as one who comes
into the state, takes out its
mineral wealth and goes on
somewhere else. AS a result.
some legislatures treat oil op-
orators as predatory" rather
than migratory, forgetting
that a resident taxpayer and
voter is being hurt by any
thing that strikes at the oper-
ator.
A farmer whose crop is OIL
has just as much right in the
affairs of the commonwealth
as the farmer whose crop is
WHEAT or any other pro-
duct Of the soil. When
wheat land becomes oil land,
it ceases to be wheat land.
The farmers crop is there
after his share Of oil and gas
taken from the ground.
An oil farmer and a wheat
farmer are not SO different.
The wheat farmer employs
a number of people to help
him take his profit from the
soil while the oil farmer deals
with but one. The wheat far
mer buys his own seed wheat,
buys his own pIows, discs and
drills, employs worErnen to
plant his wheat and cultivate
the land, hires header crews
and employs threshing outfits
and truckers to take his wheat
to the elevators where he does
the best he can to get the best
possible price for his wheat.
He pays his bills and what
ever is left is his ROYALTY
"a net profit.
The oil farmer hires ONE
man to take over all the grief

President Roosevelt's forest conserva-
tion program was broadened last night
to include State-owned and private
projects, providing the States agree to
reimburse the Federal Government If
any profit Is derived from the work.
Robert Fechner, director Of emer-
gency conservation work. sent telegrams
yesterday to the Governors OF all the
states outlining the terms under which
the Federal Government would agree
to establish camps on State, county,
municipal and private lands.

gram became known as Maj. Gen. Paul

conservation corps camps to be estab-
lshed in the Old Dominion. Malone
said two would be set up in the Shen-

Skyland and one near Big Meadow. both
in Madison County; one in the Colonial
National Monument area near York
town, for colored; two in the Natural

rando, southwest of Waynesboro. and
one east of Natural Bridge, the latter
for the colored, and one at Wolf Gap.
in the George Washington National
Forest, Shenandoah, County, Va, for
white recruits from the District.
Director Fechner dispatched the tele-
grams to the State Governors imme-
diately after he and President Roosevelt
had approved the establishment Of 16
camps on State and private lands In
Iowa and on private lands in Rhode
Island.
The kilograms said the Government
would agree to setting up camps on

Governors agreed to ask the Legisla-
lures to reimburse the Government at
the rate Of 81 day per man for ex-
penses involved up to 50 per acre. The

A month ago signs pointed In the

was much worried.
Toward the end OF April the presi-

oped that he was destined not only TO
shape by his leadership every single
action Of the session, but even to set

The change represented q remarkable
recovery of prestige for the President.
It lifted him into q position Of legts-

even greater than that he enjoyed
during the first few days Of his ad-
