Tax Power Is Basis.

The bill has been based on Con-
gress constitutional authority to levy
taxes and to regulate interstate COM
merce, and also on section of the
twentytlrst (repeaD amendment,
which prohibits the transportation or
importation into any State, Territory
or possession Of the United States for
delivery or use therein Of Intoxicating
liquors. in violation OF the laws
thereof"
The Speaker was told the measure
would provide the Government with
all the power necessary for consti-
tutional regulation Of the liquor, wine
and brewing industries.
The Supreme Courts decision,
knocking out the codes through which
+. A. c. A functioned. left the liquor
industry without Federal control ex-
cept through the enforcement OF alco-
hol taxes.

Marcia Burnett dressed as pains- takingly as if she were going to meet a lover instead of her own ex-husband. And Lees admiring glance when they met in Judge Benson's outer office more than re- paid her for her trouble
 Even Judge Benson beamed upon her. But the old judge didn't waste time on any compliments. He seemed jnordinately eager to get to the task in hand-the reading of Lees uncle's will.
 'To my niece, Marcia Linton Burnett" he read, T will and be- queath the sum of $25,00O on the condition that she remarry her former husband, Lee Burnett, and live with him for at least one year.
 ''To my nephew, Lee Burnett, will and bequeath a like sum of $25,00O with a like provision: that he remarry his former wife, Mar cia Linton Burnett, and live with her for at least one year."
 The $50,00O, so he read, was to be given to various charities in case either Marcia or Lee refused to ac- cept it under the terms set forth.
 Well, what have you to say, Marcia?" the judge asked.
 Marcia hesitated for @ moment. Twenty-Five thousand" she said, as though speaking to herself
 "Quite a sum. It would buy you a lot of nice things"
 q wasn't thinking about my self." Marcia added hastily. "I was thinking that with money really his own Lee could take up his studies again. I suppose I should accept it if only for arts sake." Marcia smiled rather wist- fully.
 Thanks, Marcia. It isn't neces- sary, however, for you to sacrifice yourself for either me or my art have given up the idea of further study. In fact, am satisfied with my present position" Lee spoke bruquely, and the smile died on Marcias face. Immediately his manner became more gracious.
 "But If you want the money" he offered, 1T will accept. Twenty five thousand would stock up an- other little dress shop, wouldn't it.? And you might have better luck this time."
 Lees reference to the failure of the little shop in which she had invested her money brought the color to Marcia's cheeks and an edge to heT voice. You're right, 1t would" she admitted For tunately, however, my firm is send ing me to Paris on buying trip. and unlike some other people, can get quite a thrill out of spend ing some one else's money. Thank you for the offer, just the same"

ried. He gave up the trip to Paris, saying it was more important for him to support his wife. And he took a job with an advertising firm and went in for commercial art. I knew he hated it, so I tried to persuade him to use my money to finish his schooling. When he refused I thought he was just .ob- stinate, and I decided that [ wouldn't use his money if he wouldn't use mine. But this is dif- fent. This would be his own. guess" Marcia's voice broke II guess he doesn't love me any more M
 "Oh, yes, he does," the old man assured her. His Uncle Bruce was sure of 1t too. That's why he made this will. And Lee has got to take this money. I assured old Bruce we could put this thing over. We worked it out together. I can hear him now chuckling over it. We're a clever pair he declared. II al- ways did say two heads are better than one ,"
 "It doesn't look like it this time,' said Marcia. A
 1T have it!" the old man fairly shouted. T know the very thing, Young lady, you run along and get ready for 8 second honeymoon. I've got to look up a little memento of mine. Something that's bound to turn the trick.
 The old judge had scarcely seat- ed his clients the next day when he turned to Marcia and asked:
 "Well, Marcia, since you have had time to think things over, what have you decided?"
 She replied very humbly, T can just repeat what said yesterday. I will accept the money only if Lee wants it.
 And I'll accept only if Marcia wants it." Lee retorted
 "Now, Tm sure that's migilts thoughtful, but it doesni ee' f,ts anywhere. May I make a srgges- tion? You are both good sp.. .,a,a.s I may use that expression, so why not make it a sporting proposition. Suppose we toss a coin"
 Marcia looked at Lee. Their glances met. Both nodded.
 Judge Benson fumbled in his pocket. Heads you accept?" They agreed.
 He dipped a coin into the air Three bodies leaned forward. Three voices cried, Heads" Three hands reached for the coin, but the short. stubby fingers of the judge were the quickest.
 Long after the happy pair had departed the old judge sat fum- bling the trick coin. You were right, Bruce" he said, as if Lees uncle were present, 1.-two heads are better than one."

haps twice that long by represSur-
ing and flooding.
At any rate, it is interesting to
know what the AVERAGE well
means to the royalty owner. On the
basis of the average for this field,
the average well paid the owner Of
! percent royalty a total of $159.63
If the royalty owner had percent
on two average wells he was paid
$319.26.
IF the royalty owner had / per-
cent on three average wells he was
paid $478.69-and so on.
1t is apparent that many received
more than this per-well figure on
some properties, where there was
flush production. The new wells pro-
duce MORE than SO barrels per day
and the old wells produce LESS
than SO barrels, to make up the av-
erage
It is apparent also that the adj
vantage in the future rests with those
who have royalty on undeveloped
properties so that they may partici-
pate in the NEW production this
year and in the years to come. The
NEW production, as a rule, will give
greater yield than the field aver
age, since these wells are quite uni
form both in initial and settled pro-
duction.
The reason for this is the fact that
Cut Bank is a SAND FIELD. It's
oil is collected in the sands of a
prehistoric beach along the shore
line of the ocean which covered
this continent in the early Cretaceous
period. The sand is fairly uniform
in thickness, thickening to the west,
varying only in porosity. Porosity
is ascribed to ocean currents which
Montana oil and mining journal. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1931-1953, 1935-01-19

The landowner 8 share Of the oil
on developed farms in Cut Bank
field during 1884 was worth one
eighth of $1,740, 6O3.20 or $217, $3.50.
We doubt that any operators in
Cut Bank field paid any such divi-
dends during the past year, but r.
respective Of the operators expen-
ditures the royalty owners received
IN CASH upward of quarter Of
million dollars. If overriding roy
alties were counted, we believe that
the cash payments to royalty own
ers would total well over a quarter
of a million dollars. However, our
interest is confined to the landown-
er's eighth.
And how about the OperatorsH
How did they fareq
We are told that the average yield
per well per day was 36.7 barrels
an average yield Of 1921 per day.
Figuring IS days Of shutdown
time during the year for cleaning out,
ETC., It is customary to figure a
year as 300 days in computing pro-
duction.
Thus well producing $53.21 per
day for 800 days viii yield $15,963.O0
per year.
When we stop to consider that
the average cost of drilling a well
in Cut Bank field is $4,000, it is
apparent that well pays out near
ly its cost each year. It viii def
nitely pay out, with royalties deduc-
ted, in less than two years. There
are few spots in the world where
an oil operator or anyone else can
get his capital out in less than two
years and have a profit thereafter.
Experts say these wells win produce
10 years by present methods and per-

caused heavier or coarser sand TO be
laid down in certain places, depend
ing upon the rapidity of the move
ment of the water. The porosity--
ability of the sand to contain oil
is the determining factor, for the
most part, whether wells are large
or small.
The fact that 1O3 out of III wells
drilled in 1884 were commercial oil
wells is ample proof of the uni
formity of the sand.
Whether Cut Bank is a safe place
to make an investment can be an
swered by the actions of the operat-
ors during 1884
Following are the chief investments,
summarized:
Drilling ..........-...........$2,OS4, 10000
Pipeline Construction 100000
Equipment and camps 100000
TOTAL for 1884 so, 7S4, 10000
1t is apparent that the operators
in this field, including pipeline COM
panies, with their knowledge Of the
entire situation, would not have in
vested two and three quarter mil
lions Of dollars in this field unless
they were quite confident of the
future Of Cut Bank
The royalty investor who win so
place his investments that he is
certain Of profit on the basis of the
minimum probable yield per acre,
which figure we furnish to all of our
members, win make more money in
Cut Bank oil field in years to come
than has ever before been possible
in the State of Montana, where roy
alties have already paid the own
ers more than eight millions of dol
lars.
