OIL! OIL! OIL!
We Have Hit OIL!
About 5 P. M., Monday, April 1, 1947, Tom Carney hit the top Pay Sand
in the Old Bannatyne Field at a depth of 1422 feet. OIL FILLED THE DITCH
LINES AND SUMP!!! This is the sand where the U. S. Govt, and State
agencies estimated the proven reserve at 1,280,000 barrels of oil.
But . . . Read the STORY in The MONTANA O,IL JOURNAL or the
GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE!!
THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE!
Tcm Carney has directed me to contact all persons with whom I have
been negotiating concerning the sale of Royalty Interest in this well, the 80-
acre lease and all future well's to be drilled thereon—to give them the last op
portunity to purchase said Royalty at the present price, $1600.00 for 1 per
cent; SBOO.OO for one-half per cent, and $400.00 for a quarter per cent. ON
APRIL 12 THE PRICE FOR THE REMAINING ROYALTY TO BE OFFER
ED WILL BE INCREASED TO $2,500.00 per percent; $1250.00 for one-half
percent and $625.00 for a quarter percent.
REMEMBER . ..
This Royalty is in a PROVEN OIL FIELD A PROVEN OIL
WELL that is going deeper into the Madison Lime and Devonian formations.
Our drilling operation must be completed by May, 1947, in accordance with
the terms of our contract with the Carter Oil Company.

DO NOT HESITATE. . . DOIT NOW!!
OIL is the blood of the earth, flowing through fortune’s field only to enrich
the courageous. It sometimes rewards even the non-thinking business slacker,
but it NEVER lifts the burden from the back of a business coward. Its plus
mark of success generally goes to those who combine some degree of thought
with Action!!

What do you think railroads make?
Gm The public thinks
Vml*f we make 15%
Impartial research polls show that, on the
average,people think wemakels%.They
also think a fair return would be 10%.
What We Make
But for the year 1946, with the biggest
peace-time traffic in history, the rail
roads earned only . . . 2%%. This is
less than one-half the comparable earn
ings for other industries.
The reasons for this low return are
not hard to find. Since 1939 railroad
wages have increased 52 6 /io% and the
prices of fuel, materials and supplies
have gone up 61 6 /io%.
But freight rates have just recently
been increased an average of only
17 6 /io% —a year after the effective date
of the last big wage increase.
What About This Year?
It is estimated that the return for 1947,
even with the recent freight rate in
crease, will be only about half the 6%
minimum return required to provide
the improvements and service needed.
This will be l>ecause of increased costs
of materials and supplies; because cer

were in effect for only part of 1946 but
will be in effect for all of 1947; because
of increased special payroll taxes on
railroads; and because of a decline in
passenger business.
What Does This Mean To You?
The answer is “Plenty!” Your standard
of living is the highest in the world be
cause of mass production. But mass
production would not be possible with
out MASS TRANSPORTATION, which the
railroads provide at low cost.
Why 6% Is Needed
The kind of service your standard of
living requires takes a lot of money for
new equipment and improvements. To
carry out the post-war improvement
program for better equipment, tracks,
terminals and modem safety devices, a
minimum return of 6% is needed.

IDAHO VISITORS AT
STRACHAN HOME
Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Rusted
arrived last week end from Idahe
and visited at the home of Mra
John Strachan and Velma over
Sunday, leaving Monday tor
Devils Lake, N. Dak., where they
will farm this summer. The Ru
stade are former resident* of
Wolf Point
What are the facts?
Actually the railroads earned
only 2%% in 1946.
To provide the service you want,
railroads need to eam at least
6fy But estimates indicate that
even with the recent freight rate
increase, the return for 1947 will
be only about half that requirement,
OW_z_
So when the railroads make only 2%
cents on each SI.OO of their net prop,
erty investment, it concerns you.*
The funds for future new equipment
and improvements must come from rail,
road earnings and also from investors
They will furnish money on reasonable
terms only if they have confidence in
the future earnings of the railroads.
You Have Another Stake In This
Even if you do not own any railroad
stocks or bonds, insurance companies
and savings banks do. So you still have
a special interest in seeing that the rail,
roads are allowed enough to do a good
job .., for you.
We are publishing this and other
advertisements to talk with you at first
hand about matters which are impor
tant to everybody.
•On total property investment, the railroads
made only 2.19%.
