Why America Is A Land OF
Contrasting Fortunes

the Importance Of acid as applied to
their own properties.
It seem impossible that an investor
would plant 500 or $500 or any other
sum out on the prairie and then go off
and leave it, unmindful Of its safety
regardless Of the human interest in
its welfare. However, it is apparent
that MAJORITY of those who own
royalties in this vast oil field are not
awake to what is going on.
The result has been that fast traders
have laid the foundation for fortunes
in this field, purely at the expense of
people either too lazy or to careless to
realize the greatest measure of success
from their royalty investments. In not
a few instances, wells have been treated
with acid and the new flush becomes
apparent within 70 hours. Thereafter,
traders have gone out and bought up,
at bargain prices, all the available
royalty, before the owners have oppor-
tunity to enjoy any Of the increased
production up as many as 1000 per
cent, in some instances. Glad to get
out, Just as they are glad to get out
of any other kind Of an investment
since the depression, some of these roy
atty owners have taken whatever they
could get. We doubt that they will
ever take the trouble to find out that
they gave away the fruits of their years
of labor and waiting.
This organization acts as a clearing
house for information for our members.
We issue bulletins from time to time,
on important subjects, and cover other
matters in personal correspondence. We
have asked members to submit to US any
offers they may receive, before accep-
ting them We are close enough TO the
field so that we can check up. Many Of
those who are READERS have made
money by taking advantage of this SER
vice. But the majority, IS we said be-
fore, do not seem to know what It is all
about Many have sold their royalties
at a price that win be paid out by IN
creased earnings during the next few
months.
In some instances, our members have
been smart in taking a profit. There
are certain areas in Kevsn-Sunburst
where we advise our members to SELL.
We know about how much oil has been
produced and is likely to be produced
in these areas and no matter how great
the flush production after acid treat
ment, it is a safe guess to sell on the
basis of expected future recovery. In
one instance a member sold royalty
without consulting us and thereafter
told us about it. We know the farm
had recently been treated with acid. We

sat down to break the news" and dis
covered in looking up his account that
he has enjoyed a return of around 800
per cent on his investment and the
price at which he sold was double what
he paid for the royalty. So we let it
go.
The point of our observation is that
American investors, In rank and file,
are CARELESS That is the reason
that we have the great contrasts of rich
and poor the rich are those who never
abandon a dollar. They keep abreast
of the news. they digest its significance
and apply it to their investments. That
is the factor which differentiates be-
tween success and failure
Some people think the important part
is to EARN a dollar to invest.
Other people think the important part
is to direct the EARNINGS of dollar
invested.
The latter people are the ones who
succeed, not only in royalties but in
every line of speculation or investment.
We know that greater individual for
tunes have been made in Kevin-Sunburst
during the present year than have been
made in any other oil field in Montana,
not excluding Cut Bank with its mar
velous record Of producer after pro-
Queer over vast area. But those who
have made fortunes in Kelvin Sunburst
have used LESS money and a lot more
brain power Unfortunately, they have
made their money for the most part by
taking advantage of the carelessness
of investors who had properties which
were made richly profitable by the use
of acid. 1t is unfortunate, we say, since
vt means that one mans gain is the loss
of others.
And that is doubtless the reason that
America is a land of contrasting for
tunes In our pell-men existence, many
of as make orphans" of our hard
earned dollars, expecting them to 60 out
on the highways and byways and make
us rich. Those who make fortunes are
the ones who walk side by side with
their invested money. The friend who
was elated to find among his papers a
stack Of railroad bonds-bonds which
a few years ago were a nice personal
fortunes typical He discovered, too
late, that the railroad which once was
a flourishing institution, is broke
and the bonds are worthless. They were
: gilt edge" only to the extent that the
owner WATCHED the investment
We are picking up royalty bargains
in Kevin-Sunburst, wherever we can
take advantage Of our stock Of informa-
ton. ANY who wishes to buy-or to
do no better than to keep in
touch with u.s.

- EALIzATION why America is q
x land of contrasting fortunes comes
to us through the new development
in Kevin-Sunburst oil field.
Since July of last year, acid has been
used successfully on Kevin-Sunburst
wells. The world has seen this field
with scarcely any drilling forge ahead
to higher daily average production
than Cut Bank with its tremendous drill
ing campaign. Wells in the barren
"stripper" areas of Kevin-Sunburst
have over night begun producing more
oil per day than they did in flush pro-
duction: bringing this OIL onto the
market when the price was $1.35 per
barrel, as against the flush days when
oil was 70 cents per barrel.
It has become quite apparent that the
science of completing oil wells in this
field has been revolut6onized. Wells
which have had bat showing of oil
when drilled in have started to flow
after acid treatment. It now becomes
apparent that hundreds Of two or three
barrel wells, abandoned 46 hours after
completion, in years past, might have
been producing wells had the use Of
acid been known in those days.
Furthermore, it is apparent that many
wells which produced for five, six, eight
or 10 years and then abandoned might
today be producing wells, had acid been
used on them. While it is true that
these wells get new "flush" when
they are treated, and probably won t
continue at the new rate of production,
yet history of Michigan fields tells us
that wells have been treated as many as
SEVEN times and have responded each
time. We have been told that Of all
the places in the United States where
acid has been used, Montana is second
only to Michigan in the average results.
In Michigan, we are informed, there is
field where the lime does not show even
q color of oil, when drilled In. When
treated with acid, these lime wells some
times make several hundred barrels per
day initial In only one case thus far
in Kevin-Sunburst has a bone-dry well
been so treated, with successful results.
That one well became a fiverbarrel
producer.
All these facts are well known TO
people who are up on their toes.
There are about 1900 people who own
royalty in Kevin-Sunburst field. Those
who have been intelligently following
these events have been getting a thrill
out of the increased value given every
royalty in this field, by the modern
methods of recovery. But the astonish-
ing thing is HOW FEW have realized
