RUBBER PROGRAM SMELLS

There Is some lifting Of eyebrows in
the oil industry over the attitude Of the
government toward small butadiene
plants, as against the great Gargantuas
which are being built with federal
funds Eastern States Petroleum Rein
ing Co. at Houston, Tex, demonstrated
that It is possible to make rubber by
converting present refineries. Eastern
States began making rubber this month
and viii make enough butadiene to
make 100000 tires, plus thousands Of
barrels Of aviation gasoline per year.
This was done without new steel YES
sci, pump, tank or other materials over
which the navy has been wrangling.
Because It is possible TO make butadiene
without spending millions, the cost at
the Eastern States viii be little over
81 per tire against So per tire at the
big Rubber Reserve plant at Lake
Charles, La. In the face Of this, The
conversion Of many other small plants
is being stopped, while the big plants
60 ahead.

And its Only The Beginning

compang leasing campaign has been
in swing.
There is only one way to make
money in royalty investments and
that is in buying when prices are
LOW. In order TO get large returns
it is necessary to take large risks.
The man who can interpret in a
showing of oil in an abandoned well
the possibility that The Texas or
other company may some day come
along and drill a well nearby and
bring in a Newman producer will
make far more money than the one
who rushes in after the well is COM
pleted and tries to share someone
else's success.
Any success we may have achieved
over the past 81 years may be ex-
planned by our rule that COST is
the basis of large profits in royal
ties. Whenever we cannot see
profit on possible AVERAGE yield,
we refuse TO buy. We buy so long
as we can see a possible profit com
mensurate with the risk. When
prices 60 beyond our established
limit, we move out. We have been
wrong many times and have missed
out on some good profits but we
have been right so many times that
it has spelled success for those who
were patient enough to follow our
policies and wait for development.
Most Of our members, fortunately,
invest patience along with their dol
lars, realizing that only with De
VELOPMENT can profits come.
They realize that the offset TO the
Newman well MAY be dry hole.
Accordingly, the man who PUSHES in
and pays too much for royalty on
or near this well is sacrificing his
opportunity to make two or three
times as much money by going else
where to duplicate what he might
have done in the Newman farm dis
trict year ago.
The discovery Of a new pool south
of Kelvin is wonderful news: won
derfuI for those who had either
vision or nerve enough to anticipate
this development and who are forti
fled by low-cost Investments in fee
lands or in royalties. It is more i'm
portant to the person who can be
iolted out Of the idea that the Rim.
rock pool was the last possible dis
eovery Of consequence in Kelvin
field. We believe that with develop
ment there win be many more. Amy
who share our belief are invited Il
join this organization. A 81 member
ship fee win bring current publica
tions, maps and, upon request, offer
ing sheets.

The Texas company got "first
blood" in the new search for oil re-
serves in Northern Montana by com
pleting its 200-barrel well a mile
south of the town of Kelvin.
This well is in a spot that has been
kicked around" for the last 20
years. Everyone knew that the area
was high enough to produce. Early
day wells had small showings of oil
-"just enough to disprove the dis
triet," in the Technology of the ma
jority of Kelvin operators. The Texas
Company, springing out of ten-year
Information, leased up the district
on the basis of wildcat territory. In
locating a well it chose what APP
peared under the old rules to be
about the worst spot: in the midst of
dry holes. There is a dry hole a
short distance west, three dry holes
east and southeast. Texaco moved
fearlessly in among them and drilled
its Newman No. l.
This is the area where we have
been buying farms in fee simple,
pleading with our members to re-
gard oil showings as FAVORABLE
and to pay more attention to the
encouragement of favorable STRUC-
TURE than to the encouragement of
early-day prospecting. Except for
acid, The Texas company would not
have had a well on the Newman. It
was the first time that modern meth
DDS of acidization had been applied
in the district.
Half a mile from this well is a
farm which we purchased in fee
simple. The closest Forty is owned

was his first venture. He became con-
WINGED that the safest investment in
the world today is in LAND. He
chose to buy a tract of land that
may not grow sugar beets, or wheat,
but which may have PETROLEUM
as its crop. He paid so little for this
tract that it represents a normal
investment in grazing land. Today
he can sell part Of his royalty for
what he paid for all his oil rights
if he wants to reduce his risk. In
all probability he win ride il
through because it is his one chance
to be REALLY RICH.
He is financially able to ride il
through. If it had proven worthless
except as grazing land, he could havi
afforded it.

several other tracts purchased in
fee simple by our members during
the last two years. More than
money, it required simple reasoning,
some imagination and nerve enough
to take the small financial risk. It is
apparent to everyone, now that
Texas company has a well, that this
district is high enough-favorably
enough-located on structure to be
productive PROVIDED a porous
condition is found in the lime. The
same fact applies to every other
wellsite within this contour and in
lower contours which are proven by
wells northwest of Kelvin.
There is oil throughout this area.
We must not forget that the first
well drilled in the distriet-the
Miller well, drilled in 1912, five
miles southwest of the Texaco pro-
ducer-had oil enough to encourage
Gordon Campbell to drill the dis
covery well north of Kelvin. There is
undiscovered oil in commercial guam
titles in countless other spots
WHERE POROSITY EXISTS. That
porosity may be at the lime con-
tact; it may be % feet in the lime
as in the high gravity pool north
west Of Kelvin; it may be so to 80
feet in the lime as at the Reagan
well northwest of Cut Bank; it
may be 100 feet in the lime as at
the Phoenix Mutual well; it may
be 500 feet in the lime, as at Tur-
ner Valley. Wherever there is
POR0SITY there is likely to be
commercial production.
It follows that the best place TO
speculate is in an area where this
condition is known to exist. Six
weeks ago there was no more worth
less land in Kelvin field than the
Newman farm. Today it is some
of the most valuable in the field
The reason is DEVELOPMENT. The
factor of porosity, which determines
the location and size of oil pools
can be determined only by the
DRILL. So DEVELOPMENT is the
sharp dividing line between ran
pastures and rich oil land. The in
weston who can get that idea i'm
bedded in his mind can make money
in Montana.
A great many people do mo-
grasp these things until it is TOT
late. Next week we win be floodes

lands to be bought in fee simpl
