COTTON GOOD PRICE
The Chandler Tribune has a big
heading: "Hold Your Cotton for 12
Cents—You Can Get It." Maybeso.
t It is worth about 11 cents in the Nor-
man market today, or a little rise of
that, and the government report indi-
cates a big shortage in the total yield
of the United States. It would sur-
prise no one to see it go to thirteen
j cents or upwards.
; But if you do hold it, for goodness
i sake put :t under cover or care for it
| so it will not be damaged when you
come to sell it. Something like fift
| bales of old cotton was marketed iii
| Norman last week, and more than
half of it was so badly damaged and
rotten as to be almost unsalable. Bet-
ter sell at ruling prices when you nick
it. if you cannot cxre for it. Nine
times out of ten the cotton grower
makes more by selling at once than
by holding.
CHICKEN DAY IN NORMAN
Merchants of Norman Are Offering
Special Prices Friday and
Saturdav.
Farmers, and especially chicken

NO KILLING FROST
Undoubtedly last nitrht, wa the
coldest of the fall, making the house-
holders hunt for more cover and t )d-
dle up closer. But we don't believe
there was frost to amount to any-
thing, certainly no "killing" frost.
Maybe in the bottom lands there was
a slight touch, just enough to retard
the growth of vegetation, which
vould be beneficial.
