THE PENDUL UNI WILL SWING

in due course of time. Right now the
outlook is rather discouraging for the
oil industry, to the person who does
not look beyond the present price
structure and the laundering attitude
of government officials But to the man
who can see that the official attitude
MUST change, as a desperate matter
OF national defense the outlook is
promising.
1t need not be commented that a
shooting war" has begun 1t is only a
matter of weeks-perhaps days-until
submarines will be bobbing up in the
South American lanes of ocean traffic
First victims will be the tankers, bring
ing oil from South America. There
after this country will have to rely on
our own oil fields for an adequate sup
ply Of oil to carry on war.
That is still another factor that will
break down the effort at RECOMMENDATION
of the oil industry.
All of this appears to be the worry
of the operator and not of the land
owner, who does not have to worry
about increasing costs of drilling and
producing the oil However, the royalty
investor can see an opportunity to cap
italize all this.
AS we pointed out last week the oil
supply of Montana as we'll as the nation
for tomorrow and days to come must
come from NEW wells on NEW farms.
The older, exhausted fields and farms
which made the fortunes of yesterday
are no important factor in supplying
the petroleum needs of today.
Montana is requiring an increasing
supply of petroleum products to supply
the greatest refinery requirements in
the history of the state Next year the
state will need 100000 barrels of
crude-the greatest demand in the
states history Where is that oil coming
from?
1t MUST come from lands which
have NOT been drained in the process
of providing 100000 barrels of oil
for the refiners last year and $4,000
barrels of oil the year beforehand so
on, going back over a total production
OF 100000 barrels of oil thus far
produced.
1t follows that there MUST be new
drilling on new lands in Montana this
coming year. In fact, new supplies
new oil fields-MUST be discovered
to keep present refineries operating.
Knowing that, will we sit and sigh
because we did not have hide or Wild
schultz royalty in Cat Creek or Baker
or Howing or Anderson or Byrne roy
atty in Kelvin field-or will we buy
royalty on undeveloped and undrained
farms which MUST supply the greater
demands of tomorrow?
Royalties have paid landowners and
their assigns the sum of $14,0O0,0O0
in the past. This figure will look small
in years to come, in the face of in
creased refinery demand. SOMEONE
is going to receive a million dollars
every year the state uses 100000 bar
rels of OIL since one-eighth of the oil
produced is ROYALTY oil, delivered

to- the owners or their assigns, free of
cost of production
Realizing that the development of
new reserves involves testing new
ground, adjacent to present producing
territory and in known geological
traps where accumulation of oil MAY
occur, the wisest investors will buy
farm land in fee simple. By fee simple
is meant that the owner obtains title
to the surface of the land and the min
erals Hereunder. Zee simple" denotes
absolute ownership of land
We are now building up a list of
investors who are interested in buying
land outright, minerals and all, to pro-
vide a NEST egg" against initiation.
Land is something that cannot be
wiped out by few code letters on
ticker tape. Land is something to have
and to hold that will produce a def
mite amount of hay or wheat or sugar
beets or gold or petroleum and the
value will remain constant. The man
who buys land on the basis of hay
land and finds that it is oil land makes
a fortune, of course If he buys hay
land for hay land prices and it pro-
duces no oil, no gold and even no wheat,
he still has hay land which is VAL
UABLE, come what may.
This week, we handled farm, pur-
chased in fee simple, on which there
is an existing oil and gas lease The
purchaser was disappointed He hoped
to get the land with all of the mineral
rights, hoping to be able to sell the
lease later on But when we pointed
out to him that the operator is as good
as he could hope to find and that the
rentals will pay him 5 percent per an
mum on his investment, above taxes,
he suddenly smiled Il can't get per
cent on my money at the bank or in
bonds" he said IF these people want
to go on paying me rentals for 10 years,
I will not feel badly. If they drill and
get oil, my royalty will make me an
income for life. Ii they don't drill and
don't pay the rental, then / get the
871l percent lease back and | own all
the minerals.
And so he was pleased with the pur-
chase The purchase price was just the
amount mortgage company loaned on
it years ago, therefore without dollar
of initiation.
Montana lands can be bought cheap
~. They offer splendid investment.
But while buying Montana lands, why
not buy on known oil and gas struc-
lures where a fortune may reward the
investors-as it did H. H. Antrim,
Freeport. H., banker H. c. Lander
and scores of other Montana land in
yestors?
With 20 years of experience in the
purchase of lands and royalties, this
is equipped to buy lands
at prices that we know are right" on
known geological structures mapped
by the U. S. Geological Survey and by
private biologists and engineers. Our
of Montana titles, of
geology and land values should be
to be capitalized by in
gestors.

In World war No. /, history definite
ly records that The Allies floated to
victory on flood of oil'-or did they
say ocean of oil?" At any rate. it was
the unlimited amount of oil available
for the mechanical forces and for ships
at sea that made possible the Allied
victory.
The reason the Allies had so much
oil was that America foresaw an i'm
minent shortage of oil and the price
of crude was advanced to an all-time
high. The result was that wildcatters
rushed and found scores of new pools
so much oil that the industry was
nearly drowned in its own flood in 1921
1922. However, higher prices DID pro-
duce the necessary oil-plus.
How about the present situation?
Instead of encouraging development
of new reserves. we find the govern
ment Sitting on the lid" to prevent
price increases oil men are not allowed
steel with which to drill and case new
wells.
While the attitude OF the govern
ment has discouraged new drilling, the
rate of consumption is increasing so
rapidly that the coming spring will see
crude demand up to 100000 barrels a
day. 1t is not impossible that when war
activity reaches its peak the demand
will be 100000 barrels a day.
The rate of consumption is now ex-
ceeding the rate of discovery of new
reserves. That rate Of discovery is 90
percent below 1887
1t requires the discovery of several
lO0000O00-barrel fields per year to
keep pace with the present consump-
ton rate of l,50OOOO,OOO barrels an
nually.
Were the government to boost the
price Of crude oil, there would be in
slant renewal of drilling, especially of
wildcat properties and the oil industry
would again float the Allies to victory
on sea of petroleum.
But will the government do this
Hardly More likely, the government
will appeal to the people to use less
gasoline, to leave more for war enter
prises, and soon thereafter gasoline ra-
tioning will begin Meantime produc-
ton will slump lower and lower After
a time public pressure will force the
government to relax and the law of
supply and demand will swing into ac-
ton, with higher prices which will in
spire a nationwide search for new oil
fields The pendulum will doubtless
swing farther the other way than it
would were there no interference with
natural trends at the present time.
Everyone knows that the cost of ma
terials, of labor-everything that enters
into the cost of producing barrel of
oil-has gone up, and will continue to
go higher. If the government refuses
to allow the price of crude to go up
what will be the re-
suit There isn't enough patriotic fer
vor in the air to cause a man to drill
oil wells and sell his oil at a loss.
SO it follows that the pendulum
which is swayed by the laws of supply
and demand is going to swing high,
