NOTICE—KEEP UP CHICKENS
There has been so many complaints
made to me about chickens running at
large that I think it advisable that
everybody keep their fowls shut up on
their own premises, as people all over
the city are now putting out gardens
and flowers, and you all know that
one old hen or rooster can spoil a
flower bed in just no time at all. From
now on keep all fowls on your own lot.
L. C. OLIVER, Mayor.

nounce S. M. MOORE ("Dad") as a

ter known or more thoroughly respect-1
ed and esteemed than the gentleman ;

growth and progress, for he has been

ANOTHER FIRE ALARM
From Saturday's Daily.
A fire alarm was turned in this
morning from the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Charlie DeVorss, No. 113 Beal
•street, caused from the soot catching
fire in the flue. A big hole in the roof
had to be cut before the flames were
finally subdued.
Be careful of your flues.
Three Fires Last Week
From Soot in Flues
Poor coal is not only extravagant but positive-
ly dangerous. No matter how little you pay per
ton, it costs far more than good coal if you meas-
ure the, heat it gives, in comparison. Don't let
cheap, dirty coal; full of slack and slate; clog
your chimneys with soot, stopping your draft and
increasing your fire risk. Buy coal that's free
from soot and smoke—it paj's in the long run.
You can get twice the heat, eliminating all smoke,
soot and dirt at only a little higher cost per ton.
No Soot! ]\f0 Smoke!
No Dirt! No Slack!
Canon City Coal is the kind you get enthusi-
astic about. Until a few weeks ago we were un-
able to secure the best grades on account of the
strike. Now the deep mines have opened up again
and we are getting fresh cars every week, direct
fiom the favorite shaft. Every load we deliver
is forked-lump—clean, bright and solid. It burns
entirely up leaves only a fine ash—no waste in
smoke, soot and clinkers. Costs a little more by
the ton—$8.50—costs far less by the month.

Night
$1.00 secures Luther Burbank's own selection of
his own seeds. 12 varieties of beautiful flowers
in 12 packets, having a separate retail value of $1.80, Enough for a com-
plete garden of extraordinary character and beauty. A real Burbank garden.
THE JITNEY ORDINANCE
The Jitney ordinance has been pass-
ed and approved by the mayor and is
published this week in the official pa-
per. It defines "Jitney Route No. ]"
which is the same as has been travel-
led by the Jitney cars 'in the past—
from east Main to the University. A
license fee of $50 is charged, and bond
of .$500 required. It virtually gives a
monopoly to the first person, firm or
corporation taking out a license, for it
provides it more than one car is neces-
sary the person holding the license
can put on additional cars without
paying additional license.
J. A. Mclntire has taken out a li-
cense, paying his ?50 and putting up
a $500 bond this morning. Thus, he
will probably have the only 5-eent
Jitney service in Norman.
The ordinance, however, provides
that any person who wishes may run
a 10-cent Jitney to any and all parts
of the city, without paying |icep«e,
and Charlie Mcllhany will probably
run that sort of an automobile.
When you plant this Spring, Burbank
your garden. Make it different. The lead-
ing scientists, horticulturists and botanists
of the world declare Luther Burbank is
the greatest producer of new and valuable
forms of plant life of this or any other age.
The wonderful creations of the great
Luther Burbank in your garden will make
it different.
With every $1.00 purchase of seeds we
will present you with an interesting and
instructive book in which Luther Burbank
himself gives valuable directions on "The
Culture of Flowers, Fruits and Vegetables"
Call in today and look over our original
Burbank seeds. Ours is the only store in
Norman that enjoys the privilege of sell-
ing them to you, as we are the exclusive
representatives of The Luther Burbank
Company, San Francisco, Sole Distributer
of the original Burbank Horticultural Pro-
ductions.
The cost of the original Luther Burbank
seeds in the Burbank Dollar Garden is less
that what you have to pay for inferior
seeds. You will find that the flowers in
your Burbank Garden will be flowers su-
perior in color, size, form, and show a
garden that will be a continuous ioy
throughout the Spring and Summer.
Onion Sets, Sudan Grass Seed, Seed Po-
tatoes, Bulk Garden Seed and the biggest
line of all kinds of garden seed in town.
Be sure to obtain the genuine BURBANK pro-
ductions. Look for the Burbank seal. It is your
protection.
