Settle 1t In the Market Place

have been reading with interest the
debate on State oil lease royalties be-
tween the Editor of the Peoples Voice
and LaRue Smith. They are debating a
question neither one is qualified to de-
eide. Only the courts can do that. There
fore, the time seems to have arrived
for me to take the floor. am assuming
the privilege by reason of the fact that
I one of the first 1essees of State
land in Montana. / acquired the lease
before oil WAS even discovered in the
State, in the good old days when the
royalty was 10eo and annual lease rent
al was 500 per section per year.
1t seems to me that both the Editor
and Mr.. Smith have inadvertently over
looked the all important fact that it is
the gross cash return and not the royal
ty alone that should be the determining
factor in oil leasing. 1t should be OBJ
vious that a lease at high royalty on
land that has no oil under it is abso-
lutely valueless to anybody On the
other hand any bonus and annual rent
ais received by the State from nom
productive lands will be just that much
velvet The lower the royalty and am
nual rental, the higher the bonus will
be bid.
What combination will produce the
greatest cash return. That is a prob
lem, the solution of which is beyond
the amateur or tenderfoot in the oil
business. 1t is also beyond a lot of
experienced oil men as we'll Anyone
who thinks that the oil production bust
ness is just big gravy train, is urged
to bid in some of the State oil leases.
Nobody barred Production varies wide
ly in different fields. In about half of
them, an overall $1,000 per acre bonus
and annual rental for ten years would
amount to more than one eight royalty.
Only about one tract in fifty is oil
bearing. The oil operator must figure
that overall hOnnS of $1,000 per
acre figures down to a $4,000 per acre
bonus 0 nthe producing tract. An over
all annual rental payment of $1.0O per
acre for 10 years figures out at an |
other $4,000 per acre on the producing |
tract, or a total of 100000 per acre. |
This is money that can be spent now |
on schools instead of waiting 40 years |
for it to accumulate from interest on |
royalties. 1t might be more profitable |
and more realistic in the long run to |
be a little more liberal on improbable |
royalties and get more bonus cash on
the barrelhead.
There is another point that in my
opinion is most important. What does
the State of Montana get per Dbl. for
it's royalty oil? Does 1T get bonus
over the posted field price? Is it con-
tracted for at public auction If not?
why not? We used to get a bonus of
soc to $3.50 per Dbl. over posted field
price for Cat Creek oil. Top price for oil
is just as important as high royalty.
It is the grand total of returns from all
not royalty alone, that con-
stitutes good administration. Attorney

81 THE OLD TIMERS

From J. L. Van Norman, Lake
Charles, Louisiana: remember
when l was a teen age boy and
lived 10 miles from market which
was at Clinton. Louisiana.
We went to market twice a year
in an OK wagon. We would leave
before daybreak and get back late
at night I plowed the oxen during
the week and let them Craze on
Saturdays and Sundays. When we
could find them we went to church
in the OK wagon. Otherwise. we
tied our shoes together and walked
three miles. When we got there we
brushed the dirt from our shoes
with a pine brush. put them on.
Usually the women went in and
the men stayed outside until the
preacher called service. Then they
all went in.
Negroes and whites attended this
same church there was also
another church down the road.
Each had service once a month,
so that gave US chance to attend
each Of them.

Sanitary Rules
Also Apply To
1855 Wheat Crop

Montana wheat growers are adj
vised by Leo S. Kolstad, state Ag-
ricultural Sterilization and Con-
S%ervation administration officer,
that 1855 wheat, to be eligible for
price support, must meet the new
minimum requirements of the
Federal Pure Food and Drug Ad-
ministration. AS previously an
nounced, similar minimum stand
ards also apply to 1854 wheat to
be eligible for ~resealing under the
loan program.
Kolstad points out that with
rare exceptions, wheat produced
and placed under loan in this state
in the past has been Of a purity
and quality to easily qualify I'M
der the new regulations. He calls
attention to the new requirement
for loans primarily as an incentive
for farmers to see that similar and
even greater care will be extend
ed to stored wheat in the future.

labor on the board. Until a few
years ago the commissioner of ag-
riculture, who had always been on
the board, was also Commissioners
of labor, but these functions have
been separated by a constitutional
amendment.
The 1858 lawmakers felt that
in case of a change in the state
administration it would be mad
visable to replace all three mem
bers of the industrial accident
board at the same time. Hence, it
was provided that the chairman's
term expire about in the midterm
Of the governor and that the chair
man be not removed at the whim
of the governor.
There was much opposition to
the McChesney appointment, not
on a personal basis but because of
his connection with an insurance
company, especially the n in
volved. Labor spokesman made
vigorous protests. Prominent Re
p%ublicans voiced objections to the

Farmers planning to ready old
storage space in time for the 1855
wheat crop are urged to be partic-
ularly careful about cleaning out
the structure and preparing it
for the new wheat. Where there
are evidences of insects the stor-
age space should be sprayed. If
there are breaks or openings
where birds or rodents can en-
ter they should be repaired or
screened over. All such storage
should be located where it is high
and dry and where the drainage is
good. New structures should be
set up with all requirements for
loan eligibility in mind.
Farmers are reminded that, if
the 1855 wheat crop is to be elig-
IDLE for price support, besides
meeting the new sanitary require
ments, wheat allotments must be
complied with and the wheat must
grade No. 3 or better. Wheat grad
ing No. 4 or 5 for test weight only,
or because it contains durum or
red durum is also eligible.
