is confusing.
To this we confessed. The term
royalty unit Is intended only to
cheat" the telegraph companies We
do practically all our Out-of-state
business by telegraph, otherwise all
of the good properties would go to
local people. So we adopted the term
unit" as a code word TO describe
''0ne-eighth OF / percent" That is
nomenclature and at the same time
Is a term which means nothing to
"snoopers' In other parts OF the
county, keeping a mans business af-
fadrs darby confidential.
incidentally, we win show you
trick with the use of the unit" we
told our visitors. Take the same
problem of 1000 barrels to divide.
THE landowners share Is 125 bar
rels.
ut happens that one unit Is per
cent OF the landowners share, under
buyer determines the share of the
owner Of one unit:
The landowner gets 125 barrels at
$1.45 per barrel or
s18l.2O
Move the decimal point over two
places Ito find 1 percent OF s181.2O)
and we get:
which is $1.S1 in settlement.
We also went into the relative merits
OF our methods OF arriving at the
VALUE OF a royalty. That is the
most important factor in the purchase
OF a royalty. An investor must be
able to know instantly whether g
property will PROBABLY produce
enough oil to pay a profit.
In other words: II an investor paid
for a royalty the exact amount that
the royalty will produce, then he is
not making money but LOSING
MONEY, for his money is entitled to
interest. He must be able to de-
termine the reasonable PROBABILd-
TIES of his investment.
In Midcontinent terms, the investor
may pay ss75 per royalty acre on
a property located in q field that
Is expected to yield 5000 barrels Of
oil per acre Since the Midcontinent
investor Is getting 0ne-eighth OF the
yield of one acre IL Is easy to figure
that II the average acre yields q
total OF 5000 barrels, he will re-
ceiye one-eighth Of 5000 or 625
barrels But most generally It takes
q pencil
of / percent royalty on one acre.
II the cost is 81 percent per acre,
we know that the farm must pro
duce an average OF 100 times ST. or
500 per acre to pay our money
back. Thereafter each 500 worth
OF production pays ms 100 percent on
the Investment. II the cost Of .
royalty is so percent per acre we
know Instantly that the farm must
produce 100 times $40 or $1,000
worth OF oil to pay us out. All the
time we are looking &C the engineers

Midconhnent Royalty Buyers Must
Learn to Speak Our Language

n Az IDCONTINENT royalty dealers
AZ are moving into Montana. We
AS greet them with the proverbis1
tongue IN the cheek. Up to this time
we have had q fairly exclusive field.
We cannot expect this to last always.
We are satisfied that it has given ms
opportunity to Toad up" on the very
best royalties ia Cut Bank field, with
odds that the Midcontinent and Texas
royalty investors have not known
since the days OF Cimmaron.
Two Midcontinent royalty whole
salers" visited our office this week.
They found that they we're unable TO
talk our language" We have q diff
ferent nomenclature fhan theirs -
different method Of figuring. The
Midcontineng usss system OF frac-
tons. Here Ia the Rocky Mountain
region we use the decimal system.
In the not distant future the whole
world Is coming to use the decimal
system in every line of business Yet
our Mfdcontitnent friends said:
"Esn't is much simpler to describe
the farmers share on an acre basis?
Then you buy one acre or q half an
acre or a quarter OF an acre. II the
farmer owns 100 acres, you buy one
one-hundred-si of all his oil
and gas rights when you buy an
acre; IL you buy half an acre you
get one three-hundred twentieth OF
his rights; II you buy quarter acre
You get one six-hundred Eortfeth OF
his rights.
Isn't It much easier to figure one
six-hundred-fortieth of the Iandown-
er's eighth than it is to figure out a
traction OF one PERCENT"

ers' eighth. (1-640 OF 1-8)
The landowners eighth Is 1926 bar

Instead OF dealing in royalty acres
we deal in percent OF ALL THE OIL
PRODUCED. We done care whether
the landowner gets an eighth Of the
part. We buy / percent royalty,
which is / percent OF ALL the oil
produced The landowner has 1914

to be conservative. and compare with
a NECESSARY yield to pay us out,
against e probable return Of per-
cent OF $4,000, which is $50.
We know the odds afforded M
sTANTLY when a royalty Is quoted
to us
But what does the Midcontinent i'm
weston know when be Is quoted q
price OF 800 for one six-hundred-
fortieth Of the landowners eighth
We did not win the argument, for
these Midcontinent buyers are like
a Frenchman who learns to speak
English. He may TALK In English
but he always THINKS in French.
AMa Sd sAase people. unable to speak
the language Of Montana oil people,
are learning to convert q royalty
acre into percent on one acre.
Thus they talk our Language of
decimals but think in terms Of
fractions.
We cOneOled our visitors with this
comment:
You, boys mad best learn to think
in our terms for after all your oil
fields In Texas and Oklahoma are
exhausted, Montana and Alberta will
be supplying the world with petr0-
leum for many generations to come"
They readily agreed, for they had
lust come from Cut Bank where they
behe1d the spectacle of ONE HUN
DRIED SQUARE MILES or OIL
LAND IN A SINGLE POOL. After
that, they rode over loo, 200 acres
of oil land In Kevin-Sunburst and
oddly enough, they were more inn
pressed with Kelvin Sunhurst than
with Cut Bank
I'VE know what acid means to old
lime fields" they said. I'VE see
chance for a killing In Kevin-
Sunburst where we found that royal
ties can be bought for less than
ordinary wildcat prices"
Perhaps we ARE asleep 20 ssme of
these opportunities. With the oppor-
tunities OF Pendroy. Devon, Whitlash
and Flat Coulee beating a TATTOO on
our doors, we have difficulty in con-
centrating on Cut Bank, as Il u.s.
We may have passed up a lot OF
things but we are convinced that
our members have made more money
per dollar invested during the past
year than during any previous year
in the history Of this organisation,
thanks to the constituency OF produc-
ton In Cut Bank field coupled with
the competitive market which low
cred royalty costs in less active
Rsaada.
We welcome the ''hiS money from
the Midcontinent because it will az
ford q market at = large profit for
our members who have bought at
prices so low that a member can sell
a part Of his royalty for more than
the amount Of his total investment
and sttH retain a part as velvet
60 provide him with an income for
life. Now that we "have ours" we
NEED new money. And apparently
