wells (including dry holes) yield
ing an average of $44, 421 per
we'll.
While Cut Bank was discovered in
1881, the slow development did not
bring the production to figure of any
consequence until 1894 so the main yield
has come in the last six years.
AS to the royalty owners, they
have not Jared badly. 1t is appar-
ent that the owners of landown-
er's royalty (12H%o) have re-
ceived 121a barrels out of each
100 barrels produced. Out of the
total yield in Cut Bank thus far
the landowners or their assigns
have received $3,O76,2O087. That
is a considerable dividend and this
figure does not include the over
riding or leasehold royalties paid.
It is also apparent that If the aver
age we'll has yielded $44,421, the royal
ty owners have received an average or
$5,55263 for each well
The completion of big wells in the
north end south and east central por-
ton of the field opens wide avenues of
opportunity to producers as well as roy
atty investors. 1t is possible to get good
leases on a very advantageous basis in
Cut Bank field today: some with small
bonus, some with an overriding royalty
in lien of a bonus. With the economy of
drilling. the knowledge of geological con-
ditious the trend" of the sands and
other factors, Cut Bank offers far safer
investment than ever before
We are not in the lease broker
age business but we will be glad
to point out available leases to
bona fide operators who wish to
develop.
The recent developments have opened
new territory in which royalties can be
purchased ahead of the drill Our mem
hers have made more money out of Cut
Bank. per dollar invested. than in any
other field in the State. This proves the
wisdom of our buying policies in the past.
working on this same buying policy we
see equal opportunity for future profits.
We are this week preparing offering
sheets on a Cut Bank producing royalty
of unusual merit Offering sheets win
be sent only to those who reqest them.

Poss Resolution
TO Aid Area

OBy unanimous vote, the board
of supervisors this morning took
the first step toward getting Fed
eral aid for, the Improvement

system of Southern Macomb
county.
The step was taken in the
form of a resolution requesting
PWA officials to have engineers

formulate a plan for correcting
it. The plan they decide on, If
approved, will be financed from
the $3.50, 100000 fund set up un-

en- first priority on appropria-
tons. He urged haste in get
ting this resolution passed, so
that the work could start.
The plan for the system fav-
ored by most of the communi-
ties included setting up a mas

tire county. Earl Tallman,
Warren supervisor. though in
agreement with the plan, said
that the trouble was all locat-
ed in three townships in the
south of the county and that
these three should be taken care
of first and foremost, as they
were the important ones.
If adopted, the costs of the
system will be mainly betrayed
by Federal grant, the rest being
apportioned out among the
benefited townships.
AS adopted, the resolution in
cluded mention of the defense
Importance of the county, the

county to provide the proper
facilities. 1t concluded with a
request that PWA conduct an

powered the Drain Commission
