The Bureau of Home Economics OF
the United States Department of Agri-
culture has a release on just this very
subject, which should prove helpful
We quote as follows:
NTUMBER one sauce in most house
' holds is gravy made from the
drippings of meat. To make good
gravy, the first essential is the right
proportion of the three ingredients
fat. flour, and liquid. For every cup
of gravy there should be two table,
spoons of fat. from one-and-one-half
to two tablespoons of -four, and one
cup of milk, water, or diluted meat
stock.
Fat from the meat usually makes
up most Of the drippings from roast
cooked in an open pan. But when
meat is cooked in a covered pan, as
a pot roast, there is generally more
meat stock than fat. In either case
use only enough Of the fat to have
the proportion Of fat to -four and
liquid given above. Skim off excess
fat and save 1T for some other pur-
pose. Too much fat in gravy will
separate and give the gravy an oily
appearance.
First step after skimming, in mix
ing gravy, is blending -four and fat.
Do this thoroughly to separate the
starch grains and thus discourage
Jumping. Also, this mixing Of the
-four well with the fat will help bind
the mixture so that 1t won't separate
on further cooking.
ITO get a browner favor in the
gravy either let the fat and -four
brown little before adding the liquid,
or use Drowned -four from the start.
Drowned -four does not have so much
thickening power as ordinary -four, SO
1t will be necessary to increase the
amount of it somewhat.
Another important point in max
ing gravy that's sure to be smooth is
adding the liquid cold or lukewarm.
This way there is time to stir the
blended flour and fat into the mix
ture before 1t gets hot. But If liquid
is added hot, the starch granules
may cook too rapidly, before the
grains are separated, and lumpy gravy
results. Stir the gravy constantly
while adding the liquid and while it
is thickening. Then cook 1t long
enough SO that there will be no taste
Of raw starch.
Whether milk or water is used
as the liquid in q gravy depends upon
individual preferences. To most cooks,
drippings from a lamb, beef, or pork
roast seem to taste better with water
And many homemakers prefer milk
in gravy from fried chicken or pork
chops.
MUCH used, often misused, is white
sauce. There are several meth
DDS for making this basic sauce.
But method similar to that used
for gravy Is satisfactory Ind quick.
Unlike gravy, however, White sauce
Is cooked over water or velv low heat
to avoid browning or score ming.
after -four and melted butter are
combined, the cold milk added, and
the mixture stirred until it thickens,
put a lid on the sauce and allow it
to cook over steam for 10 minutes
to lose the taste Of raw starch.

no can't or won't read intelligentIy.
Intelligent readers have mo trouble
with a program of royalty buying. They
HAVE to be able to read, before they
can buy ANY royalty. No royalty i'm
weston wants to buy royalty EVEN IN
THE MIDST OF AN OIL FIELD without
seeing a map. He MUST know some
thing of the geology of the field; he
MUST have written evidence of title to
the property; he MUST be able to figure
at least what the royalty must yield to
pay him 1902 on his investment He
does not want to invest unless he has
a chance to make AT LEAST 1909 On
his investment. So it follows that
SALESMANSHIP- such as we find a
mOng high pressure stock and bond sales
mems a very small part of royalties.
So after all it is not so surprising that
national trade publications are Begin
ming to print the "ABC's" of royalties.
There are thousands of intelligent in
vestOrs who would like to know more
about them: people who have been con-
verified to the idea of READING rather
than HEARING about their investments.
All of us know that landowners
royalties have paid Montana landowners
and investors TEN AND ONE-HALF
MILLION DOLLARS. That involves no
great knowledge. We know that at
least One~eighth of every barrel of oil
produced in Montana has been given
FREE OF COST to royalty owners. One
eighth of $S4 100000 (the value of oil
produced i'm Montana thus far) has been
paid to royalty owners. That is $1O,5OO,-
OOO
What is the total OF dividends paid by
operating companies in Montana?
That we do not know. Much of the
profits of Cat Greek, excepting royal
ties. have gone into the Golfers of major
companies and therefore not to be traced
in direct dividends. Montana oil cOmpan-
les, we know, have not paid that much.
That record is doubtless largely re-
spOnsibIe for the fact that much of the
Independent financing in the last decade
has been through the sale OF Over-rid-
ing royalties. Investors tired of putting
their money into a corporation over
which they had no control. Some of
them saw their investments win and win
largely, but their profits were not divid-
ed. Instead, they were invested in new
enterprises, sometimes outside the state
OF Montana
Many an enterprise failed because of
one gIaring burden: overriding ROYAL
TIES. Many of the Cat Greek properties
were so burdened with overriding royal
ties that they could not have succeeded

produced ten times as much oil as was
reasonably to be expected. Many an
investor learned that his company was
unable to pay dividends because of the
oppressive royalties. Then he said: II
want some OF these things called royalties
because they get a check every month,
while / never get a check"
So 1t was that many companies have
financed through the sale of overriding
royalties Many operators have not
thoroughly figured out the complexities
of issuing this sort of an interest. For

owner of 10 royalty gets one barrel
ont Of every 400 produced. If there is
40 per cent royalty outstanding, the roy
atty owners get 40 barrels free of cost
of production and the operator gets so
barrels out of each 100. That seems
like fine arrangement. But the trouble
arises when there is a second well TO
be drilled. Who is to pay for the second
well? The operator can't drill any more
wells out of the receipts of his 80 per
cent of the oil, except in cases of large
production, so there comes a staIemate.
This has been met by some operators
who. are selling participating royalty"
which isn't royalty at all. The man who
buys 10 of this royalty does not get
his share of the oil. Instead, the returns
are accumulated against the cost of
drilling, pumping, cleaning out, etc. He
is back on the basis of common law trust
units" on which Cat Greek drilling was
financed Only, he participates in all of
the oil, rather than fraction of the total.
His chances for success are far ahead Of
the Cat Creek days, but after all HE
HAS NOT BOUGHT ROYALTY.
Royalty means Just one thing: A share
of the oil delivered free of cost of produc-
tiOn.
Anything other than that is NOT
royalty.
nationwide education along this line
would be very helpful to us, although we
do not wish to discourage investments in
overriding royalties where the funds are
used to drill wells. We believe that oil
investors are getting the greatest run
for their money! in all history through
this method We know of several groups
i'm Cut Bank which have been very sue
cessfuI and the investors in overriding
royalty have received liberal profits on
their investment.
Cut Bank has paid one and a quarter
million dollars ISL PAS, 1897, to be exact)
to owners of landowners royalty. In ad-
dition to this, there has been distributed
perhaps another half million to owners of
overriding royalties. That means DIVI-
DENDS of S5OO,OOO paid by drill
ers to those who furnish the money for
drilling. That is "A healthy situation
especially when we consider that Cut
Bank is only five years old in its COM
merciaI development, and the average
well is only three years old.
This week we issued publication adj

pressed the wish that they could file
a homestead on some oil land. as did
such lucky persons as Irving Baker,
William HOwling, William Byrne, Richard
hide and others whose royalties have
earned hundreds of thousands of dollars.
In this publication we point out the cost
of homesteading and compare 1t with the
cost of royalties today. That is, without
living on storm-swept, drOught-stricken
prairie for three long years, an investor
can today get more oil rights for less
money than the sturdy pioneer home
steader had to pay.
1t is an interesting discussion for
those who wish to reason it out. But
the facts recdted prove the point.

UNHE growing popularity of oil royal
ties as a vehicle of stable invest
ment is reflected in the increased
space that is given to the subject by oil
trade publications throughout the United
States. notable instance is the IN
LAND OIL INDEX of Casper, which has
begun publication of a series of articles
on the subject of royalties.
In current issue the Index article
points out the Importance of royalties
in one paragraph, follows:
To anaIyze further the value of
royalties, let us assume the average
price of the oil produced in the
United States to be 81 90 per barrel.
The royalty value per month is APP
proximately $13,OOO,OO0; reduced to
a daily figure this gives more than
S43O,OOO for royalties per day,
$4,000 an hour, $500 per minute.
Royalties, therefore, are of equal
vital interest to royalty investors, as
would any business which has a rev.
enue of $3.50, OOO, 900 yearly. With
no investment except the original
purchase price of the royalty interest,
no operating costs, worry, ana
no respOnsibility-the royalty in
weston is truly in an enviable position.
To those of us who have been follow
ing royalties for is years it seems a little
strange that everyone does not know
about royalties, but not many do. The
average person has no conception of what
royalties are, how they operate, or how
much profit has been or can be made from
royalties.
The fact of the matter is that the
gambler type of investOr-those who
listen to the 'tipsters"-will never buy
royalties. Few people will invest the
time and effort to become successful
royalty investors.
Occasionally we get one of that type
someone who has heard that a friend
or acquaintance has made lot of money
out of royalties. He will write in and
want to buy royalty. He is the type
who would buy a single royalty on
wildcat (if that happened to be the first
one offered HIND and sit back with the
expectation that a 500 investment viii
make him rich In about 30 days he
will begin writing, asking for dividends"
or "divisiOn of the profits" He VIII
have no conception of making a fortune
in royalty investments.
Such a person cannot succeed I'm roy
alties. We try to keep such people out
of the organization. They merely cost
us lot of time in writing letters which
are of little avail. This is the type OF
investor who wants ITO be thrilled into

a salesman. That type of investor sell
dom makes money but it is chiefly his
own fault.
The modern investor, no matter what
line he may enter, does not take the
words of the salesman. He asks that 1t
be WRITTEN OUT. He then takes the
facts home with him and studies the
proposition out The Securities and Ex-
change Commission has gone long way
to help that sort of an investor, requiring
that all the representations be written out
