1t was difficult to explain this to many
of our clients, some of whom refused to
buy any permit royalties on the ground
that they wanted to know exactly what
they were buying. Today we realize
what wonderful advantage such a
purchase gave us Had we bought roy
alties on just 12O acres of the Moore
permit in the early days of Kelvin field
we would certainly have designated 100
acres on the WEST end which is not
productive. AS it was, we had the pros
pecting of four years, in the develop
ment of the field, and when the Queen
City 120 acres was designated, the own
ers Of this royalty would not have traded
the 100 acre royalty for all the rest of
the permit
That was the first advantage of govern
ment permit royalties. The second adj
vantage is now appreciated. Uncle Sam
is the one landowner who can afford to
hire an engineer to supervise the pro-
duction of oil from his land. The gov
eminent supervises both the drilling OF
wells and the production of oil 1t re-
quires that all sands shall be protected
from water invasion. It insists upon
certain production practices which will
give the government the maximum a.
mount Of oil as its royalty share. That
government supervision was given on the
atty owners had more royalty than did
the government. Out OF its % royalty
the government paid the cost OF supervi-
sion The owners of the remaining z y
per cent received the benefit Further
more, government engineers supervised
the marketing of the oil, to make sure
of the accuracy Of royalty settlements
Royalty owners rode along with Uncle
Sam, landowner, on this decidedly fine
arrangement. That was advantage NO.
Furthermore, there was never any
difficulty OF title on government land
royalties Since the land is not sub
Ject to taxation, there was no trouble
from delinquent taxes. Since the gov
eminent does not cucumber its lands.
there were no mortgages, liens or other
encumbrances to cloud the title It was
relatively simple matter to trace title
In the land office, obviating the neces-
sity OF expensive abstract That was a
decided advantage, called No. 8, which
was especially appreciated by us
In the case of the Moore farm. that
12O-acre tract has thus far produced ap-
proximately $4,000 barrels of oil of an
average value of $1.34 per barrel The
yield per well is, accordingly about
$50, 600 per well including dry holes of
which there were three. The yield per
acre is thus far around $1,000 That
is, each acre of the 100 acres has pro
duced about $4,000 worth of oil. To the
royalty owner this means that each one
per cent royalty has paid one per cent of
100000 or $4,000, To the man who
paid So per cent per acre this means
return of 1855 on each dollar in
vested. The reutrn is $25 per cent per
acre on an investment of 50 per cent per
acre. Those who paid as much as SIS
per cent per acre have received 1O-to-1
ihose who paid $40 per cent per acre
have thus far received 5-to-1
However, government permit royalties
ire soon to De thing of the past. All
government leases are now issued on a

A young man pawned his nice
suit of clothes and didn't want his
mother to know about 1t. He finally
redeemed them and brought them

u OYALTY investors will regret to
n see with the coming OF the new
year the virtual passing of one Of
the finest forms of royalty investment:
the government permit royalty.
Under the new leasing act, there will
be no more government permit royalty
by reason of the fact that the govern
ment has now decided to keep for Uncle
Sam all of the landowners share of the
oil Formerly the government was will
ling to divide up part of its royalty with
anyone who would find oil on govern
ment land. 1t was that royalty that we
now realize was a fine investment
We have in mind the Moore permit
in Kevin-Sunburst field which illustrates
the point. John Moore, a Great Falls
real estate man, filed an application for
permit to explore for oil on a large
tract Of government land east Of Kelvin.
The government agreed that if Moore
would discover oil on this land the gov
eminent would reward him with 7h per
cent royalty on one-fourth of the area
which Moore might himself select On
this selected preference area the gov
eminent received only per cent while
Moore received Z n per cent On the
balance Of the permit, the government
received all of the customary 12h per
cent royalty.
With the drilling of the famous Van
meer gusher in section 4-34-2W, the
Moore permit, located a quarter of a
mile away, came into prominence and
a group Of Canadians had organized a
company to take 1t over. They called
it the Queen City Oil company. This
company proceeded with the drilling of
a well, discovered oil and the govern
ment, in compliance with its agreement
issued a lease on a preference" area
OF 100 acres on which Moore had TX
per cent royalty.
Meantime, Moore ''hedged" on his
venture and sold part of his royalty.
Some of our early-day members were
among the fortunate buyers and this
royalty sold for as little as So per cent
per acre. The original assignments pro-
vided for royalty on whatever part of
the permit which might De designated
as preference area" That means that
no matter where oil was found on the
permit, THAT place was the spot where
the royalty applied. Thus when permit
owner had 1850 acres fthe limit allowed
one person. and sold one per cent roy
atty on the preference area, 1t meant
that the royalty investor had a gamble
over the entire 1850 acres. NO matter
where oil was discovered. he was the
winner on $40 acres around the well
whereas ordinarily he would be con-
fined to one place in a royalty invest
ment in fee lands.
AS we now recall, two or three dry
holes were drilled on the Moore permit,
on the West end; and all had showings
too small to be called commercial. The
royalty owners on the Moore, we recall,
were pretty discouraged at one time and
many OF them sold out cheapIy because of
the dry holes When production came on
he extreme East end of the permit the
'nes who held onto their royalty were
glad, for series of big wells came
With the drilling of total of 20 holes
Once a preference" area had been
the royalty owners knew for
the first time the exact location Of their
oyalty, out Of the entire Moore permit.
