anything that may be required to give
them the exact flare that is expected on
just such an event.
The stars will arrive in swanky cars
furnished by the Forest Chevrolet COM
pany and the Central Garage. The
hairdresS of the arrivals will be like
that of the Hollywood stars as the
Modern Beauty Parlor has been select
ed to design the coiffures and to be
especially designed by the Modern par
lor for the local stars.
Rautio's Bouquet Shop will design
the corsages and flowers for the stage
which will add to the artistic touch re-
quired for just such show. The OFF,
cial Premiere dress shops are the Style
Shoppe and Leppi's. Some of the stars
will wear beautiful gown and apparel
furnished by these shops for their own
Hollywood stars.
The Slogan Super-Service Station
BERNARD and Ray Slogan is the Off
cial Premiere service station. The
Forest Hotel, cafeteria and dining room,
is the official rendezvous of the stars.
The Ely Hardware & Furniture Co.
is the official hardware and furniture
store. Stage settings will be by the
company. The James Drug Store is the
official cosmetician. Make-ups for the
stars will be furnished by the James
company.
Photographs of the stars, now on dis
play in the lobby of the Ely Theatre, are
by the Cyko Art Studio.
Patrons should keep in mind the list
of the above advertisers who have made
Ely's Hollywood Premiere for their
own home town possible. See the adj

Fnty-Eight Fire Stations
In North Central Region.

While the public reads the weather
forecast in the newspaper in order to
plan its trips, the Forest Ranger in the
National Forests receives his informa-
becomes critical from his nearest fire
danger station.
Fffty-eight of these stations have
been established by the U. S. Forest
Service in the North Central Region
for the purpose of determining degree
of fire weather. 1T is easier to pre-
vent forest fires if there is informa-
ton available at all times which will
accurately tell us if fires are likely to
occur and just how fast they will spread
in different kinds of forest cover" said
R. G. IverSon, Milwaukee, who is in
charge of Fire Control Planning in the
Region.
Were you to visit one Of these fire
danger stations in the National Forests
you would find that the Forest Ranger
makes use of rain guages, thermometers
for measuring wind velocity, the same
as they do in weather station. But
the Forest Ranger makes use of other
instruments also, such as the duff hy-
grometer which shows the amount of
moisture in the duff on the forest floor
Extreme fire danger occurs when the
forest floor is dry and the humidity is
low-when the clothes on the line dry
in few minutes Humidity readings
are taken several times daily with a
psychrometer The Ranger also makes
use of fuel type maps which tell him at
glance where the bad slash areas are
located, what part of his district is in
mature timber, young growth grass or
brush. Nowadays when a fire is re-
ported, the Ranger knows what kind of
forest fuel is burning before he reaches
the fire.
Camping, fishing, and hunting is in
creaSing in the National Forests every
year and at the same time the campers,
fishermen and hunters are becoming
more careful with fire. Research tech
nicians are making progress in predict
ing fire weather, and methods of de-
lection and suppression are being i'm
proved, but the forest user still holds
the key to the National ForestS-if he
is careful with fire.

vice for the state forest ranger SER
vice, A. W. Stone is taking his first va
cation. Mr.. Stone began work in the
forestry division in May, 1918 and has
been connected with. that department
continuously since that time. He has
seen the growth of the service from a
time when public opinion looked upon
forestry plans as being Of little real
value, until the present time when the
public has come to appreciate the work
as being of major Importance to the
communities directly affected and to
the state and public generally. What
to do with a four weeks vacation after
being without one for 20 years is the
big problem

drainage and waters of the conservation
commission, was interviewed by Mr.
Hoefler and Waino Somero, city en-
gineer, on the proposed WPA project
for the repairing of number of old
logging dams in the Ely territory.
Mr.. Olson stated thet he was anxious
to get the work started and spoke
favorable of repairing dams at the out
let of Shagawa, BURNSIDE and Bear
Island lakes this fall. The st. Louis
county commissioners will be asked to
sponsor the work in this county, while
Mr.. Olson will secure sponsor, which
may be his organization for the work in
Lake county.
st. Louis county commissioners will
be asked to set up money for a WPA
project in 1889 to include repairing
other logging dams near here and for
stream improvement work.
The Ely men also conferred with
WPA officials in Duluth over the posi-
bility of reopening the Emeralite plant
under a WPA setup. The WPA men
stated that such project might be
possible but made no further COM
ment. It had been suggested at a
recent meeting of the Commercial club
that the plant be placed in operation as
a WPA project, sponsored by the state
or county and the product used in high
way construction. A promoter has been
endeavoring to get some roofing manu-
facturer to take over the plant, which
has been acquired by the RIG.
Making the trip to st. Paul, besides
Mr. Hoefler and Mr.. Somero, were

time to buy oil, to be sold at a profit
later. just as we buy wheat on the
market, expecting to sell it at a
higher price, we buy oil IN UNDER
GROUND STORAGE at a low price,
to sell it at a high price.
If man buys 10 landowners roy
atty on a tract of oil land at SIS per
cent per acre, he owns one barrel
out of every 100 barrels produced
and saved Thus, if the ground pro-
duces 1000 barrels to the acre, the
royalty owner OWNS 10 barrels of
crude which is delivered to him FREE
OF COST OF PRODUCTION.
IF the ground produces 1000 bar
rels to the acre, the royalty owner
OWNS and RECEIVES 20 barrels of
crude from each acre
If the ground produces 5000 bar
rels to the acre, the royalty owner
OWNS and RECEIVES so barrels Of
crude from each acre.
If the ground produces 10000 bar
res to the acre, the royalty owner
OWNS and RECEIVES 100 barrels
of crude from each acre
There are fields in California where
production has exceeded 100000 bar
rels to the acre, but until new hori-
IONS are discovered Montana can use
no such yardstick. There are indi-
vidual leases which are an exception
to the rule here in Montana but they
are not a guide to the royalty inves-
tor. AS an example, the 40-acre Mid
Northern Wildschutz lease in Cat
Creek has produced $2,5O0O00 worth
of oil, or $62, per acre. One per
cent royalty has paid $4,000 or 1925
per cent per acre.
The Merchandising so acres
in Kevin-Sunburst field has produced
a similar amount of oil or about
$31, 600 per acre. One per cent has
paid 1910 per cent per acre.
But these are not the guiding rule
by which to purchase royalty. Since
none can see into the ground to know
how much oil any particular tract
contains, we must arrive at the Az
ERAGE recovery in order to make an
intelligent investment in royalty. In
other words, if we believe that the av-
erage recovery of a given tract viii be
1000 barrels likely worth 81 per
barrel, then we know that an invest
ment Of II per cent per acre will give
us 10 barrels worth, $40 or our money
back plus 800 per cent. That is a
satisfactory investment, but should
we guess that the tract would produce
like the Richard hide farm, $61, 200
per acre, earning $612 per cent per
acre, we would be very much dissatis-
fled if we received only the AVER
AGE return Of any Montana oil fields
other than Cat Creek
The royalty investor buys oil in
underground storage when he buys
