USE GOOD EGGS TO
GET GOOD CHICKS
Incubators Can't Produce
Without Quality.

Some poultrynaen are more opti-
nistic than businesslike in their
methods. This is especially true of
those who assemble all kinds of
eggs, good or bad, for Matching pur-
poses.
You can't get more out Of your
incubator than you put into it, and
poultrymen are urged to be more
careful in selecting eggs for hatch
iEg.
Matching eggs should come only
from high quality, healthy, vigorous
birds. They should be normal in
shape, have well calcifed shells,
and weigh more than % ounces to
the dozen.
They should be gathered several
times a day and stored in warm
place to avoid chilling, as eggs that
have chilled too much will not pro-
duce good chicks. A temperature of
~ w w OSS10SS. ID OCoI. 41dGS1A1lAS
eggs should not be kept in storage
for more than seven to ten days.
The incubator should be carefully
cleaned, disinfected, and tested be-
fore the eggs are placed inside.
Likewise, the brooder and brooder
house should be cleaned and tested
before any chicks are put in to
grow. The brooder should be start
ed in operation at least "a hours be-
fore the arrival of the chicks, so
as to give it time to become evenly
warmed throughout.
Destroy subnormal or Gull chicks.
Do not brood more than 800 chicks
iii one unit, and allow a square
foot Of floor space for every. two
chicks. Watch the temperature
closely; overheating is worse than a
slight chilling.

Turkey Feed

Turkeys twelve weeks of age
should have whole grain scratch
mixtures. They should alwaysshave
both mash and scratch from then
until they are marketed. Most
growing mash. mixtures contain 20
per cent or more Of protein. Com
mon grains contain about 10 per
cent. Turkeys seem to need only
about Is per cent of protein for the
last two months Of growth, and
hopper feeding of mash and grain
provides about this much protein.
Twenty per cent protein mash alone
would not be. economical. III. vi.

RIGHTS OF OVERRIDING ROYALTY
OWNERS AFTER LEASE
CANCELLATION

though not a Montana decision. The case
is known as Payne ct al VS.. Callahan ct
al, involving land in Santa Fe Springs
field.
In 1922 the oil lessee assigned an over
riding royalty which plaintiffs ultimately
acquired. A well was drilled under that
lease, it produced for some years, ceased
to produce and in 1929 the lease was
quit-cIaImed. A new landowner had OBJ
tanned title and he made lease to new
lessee. The new lessee drilled a new well
and finally placed it on production. Then
this suit was brought by tn holders of
the overriding royalty TO collect on ac-
count of this new production, suing the
landowner, lessee and the purchasing COM
panies.
Defendants cOntended that the surren-
der of the lease terminated the interest
of the overriding royalty men, although
they did not quiteclaim. Plaintiffs con-
tended that under recent decisions rela-
tive to landowners royalties, they had ac-
quired a permanent interest in the land
which not even the termination of the
old lease could defeat. Judge Downs has
held with the defendants, thus defeating
the overriding royalties. His opinion fol-
lows:
1.-THE court has read the cases cited by
counsel on the interesting questions In
VOIVed. have concluded to base my de-
cisiOn in this case ON the law established
I'm Smith VS.. Drake, 1S4 Cal. App, 700.
That case is at present the law, and /
feel that the same should be followed in
the incident case and in all future cases
until our Supreme Court has definitely
OVerruled the same. / realize that that
case cites BrOOkshire Oil Co. VS.. Cas-
malta, ETC., Co., 166 Cal. 211, and that the
latter case, in so far as what is said rela-
tive to the rights and interests of the les
see, has cen repudiated in the case of
Taylor VS.. Hamilton, 1914 Cal. 76S, and
in Callahan VS.. Martin, 8 Cal. (2d) 1913.
However, I personally believe that the
relationship of the landowner and his as
signs, and that existing between lessee
and lessor, is not to be confused with
the relationship existing between the les
see and his assignment of production I'M
der the lease.
1.-THE case OF Callahan VS.. Martin, supra,
very clearly sets forth the respective
rights and interests of the lessor and the
Montana oil and mining journal. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1931-1953, 1937-08-07

While il is a definite policy of this or
ganiZatiOn to handle ONLY landowners
royalties, many of cur members are the
owners of overriding royalties or parti-
cipating interests which some operators
call royalty" We have long commended
that the word royalty means only one
thing: a sovereign decided right. If we
had our way, no part of the lease inter
est might be called a royalty. How
ever, we cannot regulate such matters and
overriding royalties held by our members
cause us considerable correspondence be-
cause naturally we care for interests of
our individual members, no matter where
they buy their royalties.
There has never been case in court
in Montana In which owners of over
riding royalties have cOntended that their
royalty continued even after termination
of a lease. of which we know. However,
we have heard the contention, many times.
Overriding royalty owners have insisted
to us that IL they were not properly served
at the time the lease was cancelled that
they had rights to step in and repair any
breach of which all other participants
might be guilty.
The law In Montana places the burden
upon the holder of the lease, rather than
the landowner. 1t goes so far as to pro-
vide penalty that is automatically inn
posed upon the lease owner, If he fails TO
promptly sign a release on any defaulted
lease. However, we have been waiting
for a case to arise In which the over-Ffd-
ing royalty owner would contend that he
had some rights of which the lessor had
Invested himself.
The landowners share is 12M percent
of the oil, to be delivered to him free
of cost of production. The lessee or OPP
orator gets S7x percent of the oil. In
order TO create Overriding royalty, the
lessee gives TO another person or cOrpO-
ration a suitcase, carrying less than
87M percent Of the oil. III it is an 80
percent suitcase, then there is " per-
cent OF overriding royalty. In the event
OF production, the owner or owners of
this overriding royalty receives u bar
rels out Of every 100 produced. II the
lease fails, the title to the overriding
royalty fails.
case In which some of these above
issues were raised was decided in Cali
fornia. Montana courts follow the Cali
fOrnia decisions In large measure, so it
will be reassuring to Montanans,

lessee, and the assignee of the lessor. The
amounts paid by the lessee to the lessor
are in the nature of rents and royalties
payable to the lessor for the rights com
ferred under the lease. However, the in
terests owned by tn plaintiffs herein, be-
ing assignments made by the lessee, are
not in any sense TO be classified as rent.
No part of any amounts such assfgnees
would receive are payable to the land
owner, but are merely assignments OF the
production from the land, which the as
signOr promises and agrees to pay over
TO the lessor if and when received. The
assignee is obligated to pay no part to-
ward production on the land, nor is he
given any rights of entry to comply with
the terms of the lease or to produce oil
in case the lessee refuses to act. Such
an assignment is not an incOrporeal her
editament, nor an interest i'm land i'm the
nature of chattel real. 1t endures as
long as the lease upon which it is founded
continues, and when the lease upon which
the assignment is predicted falls, the as
signee's part to participate in the pro-
duction Hereunder falls with it. The sit
uation is similar TO that of tenant who
leases land for a term of years, the rent
to be payable out of crops grown there
on, and thereafter assigns to a third party
portion of the crops produced. The les
see surrenders the lease before expiration
of the term and another lease is made by
the owner. NOulu lnG dSSlSHcS c1AIlu n
portion OF the crops grown by the new
lessee? i think not.
Judgment for defendants"
Overriding royalties have come into
great favor among investors in Cut Bank
field. We have bought only one and
that one turned out very satisfactorily.
Probably $685. per year is paid out by
overriding royalties i'm Cut Bank and
some investors have made lot of money
ON them. However, we regard them as
stock or shares, rather than royalty, SO
do not handle them. 1t is important to
the investor however, that he know that
when he buys overriding royalty that it
is not getting an interest in the land,
such as carried by landowners royalty.
We have one publication descriptive of
the various types of royalty, showing
the operation, advantage and risks of
each. 1t is a brief, concise textbook ON
Royalty Titles in Montana. It is fur
nished to members without charge.

GEORGE WASHINGTON

Many of us have read the biogra-
phies of great men Of history with q
feeling of wonder and awe. We wonder
how. Napoleon became such Colossal
figure. We marvel over his military
attachments, his administrative power,
his spectacular rise to fame.
We consider the career of Crom-
well or a Caesar or Frederick and
feel that here indeed were men of un-
usual qualities.
But how often do we consider the
life and work of George Washington
who stands almost alone among all the
inmortals of history. He was great
military leader, but more. He was an
able leader of men, but more. He was
a great President, but more. He was
an able business man Of his day. but
more, much more than that.
He alone among all the great Gener-
ais of the past, won war with only
volunteer troops who were inadquately
trained. After the first flush of ex-
citement his men began to desert, fear
full that the revolution was failure.
Those who were to provide money
and supplies were unequal to the task.
Meanwhile the enemy hired trained
and experienced soldiers, all well
equipped. Even man of great ability
might have been justified in throwing
up the task in the face of such odds.
But we know that Washington met
the emergencies as they arose because
today we live in the United States of
America. How he did it is a thrilling
narrative, moro amazing than fiction.
with which most Of us are familiar.
Then with independence won. after
he had accomplished enough to assure
himself place among the immortals.
he went on to the greatest period Of
his entire career. His influence made
the constitutional convention . sue-
cess. His wise and able administra-
ton of public affairs as our first
president established the new nation.
The tradition he left when he refused
all thought of dictatorial power or
kingly rule, when he declined the
third term because such q precedent
might endanger the future Of demo-
cracy, made him stand almost alone
among the greatest figures in all his
tory.
We do well to honor his memory
on the date of his birthday annivers-
airy, Monday, February "a. We DO
well to heed again the traditions he
SO firmly established in our national
life. That America. still young among
the nations Of the world, produced one
such magnificent personality should
be source Of pride and satisfaction
to us all.
