It is easy to forget to tell all
tl.e news from California. There
is so much to tell; news that per-
tains to Norman, real good news.
It is always good to hear some-
thing good about some one who
went out in the world and made
good; done something worth
while.
As all good gifts were not giv-
en to one person, neither is it pos-
sible for everyone to do the same
thing in order to do something
worth while. There are more peb-
bles on the beach than you and I.
The other fellow occupies space
and sometimes fills that space to
o'er flowing, and we have found
one of them right here in Los An-
geles, and he hails from Norman.
His name is Brown.
Millions of people come and go
to this city. I hey are as numerous j Miss [j Dudley spent Sunda;

A story is told to illustrate the j |loma Cjty,
growth of Los Angeles. Two J
travelers, one from New York, j
the other one from this city, met
on the train and began to discuss
the growth of the two cities. One
said to the other, "Is Los Angeles
as big as New York City?" The
answer came, "I have not seen
Los Angeles for over two
months."

CORN CHOP LARGER
THAN LAST TWO
YEARS COMBINED
Marked deterioration in th"
growing condition of corn in the
state, as a result of lack of rain
fall, is shown in the joint crop re-
ports just issued in the United
States department of agriculture
and the state board of agriculture.
In spite of this fact, the report
says the state will raise as much

DEATH OF MISS

A sad death occurred at the Sun-

Miss Stella Goode, a youi.g lady

CAMP MEETING
AT GiTY PARK
Presiding Elder Melvin Wright
is here from Guthrie making ar-
rangements for the Free Metho-
dist Campnieeting which will be
held in the City Park beginning
Friday, August 15th, and lasting
until the 25th. A large tabernacle
tent is being erected for the meet-
ings, and something like 75 smaller
tents for the campers who are ex-
j pected from all parts of Oklaho-

30 per cent, August 1, 1917. and a
10 year average of about 56 per
' cent. On the basis of the estimate
j 3,088,000 planted acreage this fig-
ure forecasts a crop of approxi-
mately 65,713,000 bushels.
Wheat Yield 50,204,000 Bushels
The e^irly corn mi the southern
i portions of the state was matur-
ed to considerable degree during
I the early part of July. The heavi-
1 est deterioration occurs in the
north central counties where there
! is a drop of fully 41 points.
| The preliminary estimate for

I bushels which places the Oklaho-
i ma crop at 50,204.000 bushels.
' This is a reduction of about 7,360,-

crop of 57,573,000 based on July
conditions.
BILLY PARKER,
AERONAUT,
HEREJUESDAY
Billy Parker, the aeronaut, who
gave a number of our citizens a
ride in his Curtiss airoplane a few
weeks ago, is to play a return en-
gagement here on Tuesday, Aug.
12th, flying from Oklahoma City
either this (Monday) evening or
Tuesday morning, and making
' his headquarters at the same
place as on his former visit—Tom
Smith's pasture, near the I. O. O.
F. cemetery. He will be prepared
to take any of our citizens who
wish to make a flight through the
air at the usual price—$10 per
flight.
It will be remembered that Mr.
Parker's machine i- one of the
best now flying and that lie has
made a large number of flights
without a single accident. He is
experienced in every particular,
has one of the best mechanics
with him, is careful and conscien-
tious and will give those who y at-
r«Mii,e him the experience i'" their
lite v, i h the minimum* ol %!anger.
Indeed, to such perfection lias ♦ty-
ing arrived that there is little
more dtuiger in it than < ruling
in an automobile.
Many of our citizens took rides
with Mr. Parker v!« . i he was here
recently and were highly delight-
ed with their experience i 1 i ^
specialty is straight flying, but
when a passenger desire, the
thrills he can give them to him.
To get tip into tlie air a thousand
or two thousand feet and view the
landscape o'er is something really
worth while and something vou
can look back to with tli utmost
pleasure.
If you want to go, be on the
Tom Smith pasture Tuesday
morning.
SHIPPING PEACHES SUGGESTIONS
BY THE WHOLESALE WANTED
Messrs. Ben Barbour and W. C.
Parker conceived the idea a week
or two ago to get into the peach
business, realizing there were lots
of fine Elbertas in this part of
the state in small orchards that
could be marketed at a profit to
the farmer and a fair profit to the
shipper. They accordingly gob
into the busiess, with the result
that rtiey have already shipped
five carloads or 2000 bushels and
will ship that many more before
the end of the season They find
their market in the north, at dif-
ferent points in Kansas, Kansas
City and St. Louis, and are doing
quite well at it.
The peach growers are realizing
about $1.00 per bushel, and it
costs the shippers about 20 cents
additional to get them sorted and
ready to ship. They have shipped
from Blanchard, Noble, Washing-
ton and Norman and say the
quality is very fine that Oklaho-
ma Elberta peaches arc sure in
demand in the large cities.
BAIL AND CHAIN
ON CARL CHASTAIN
The "bunch" did not allow Carl
Chastain to escape the dire pen
alty for geetting married without
letting it be known, and captured
him Monday morning and put him
in jail. Afterwards they locked n
ball and chain to his legs and set
him in front of the First National
bank, flanked by a placard

Mayor-elect Barbour and the
four other commissioners are anx-
ious to receive suggestions from
citizens as to who, in their opin-
ion, would make a good city
manager, and the salary he ought
to receive. It is the desire of the
officers-elect to work in harmony
with the citizens and get tneir
best judgment on all matters per-
taining to the new city govern-
ment so that it may be given a
fail trial.

LOST BOTH LEGS;
WALKS SAME AS EVER
Doss McNabb, of Wayne, was
here Tuesday and had his sub-
scription changed to Rush
Springs, Okla., where he expects
to move and reside in the future
It will be remembered that Mr.
McNabb was run over by a Santa
Fe passenger train at Wayne near-
ly two years ago, severing both
legs just below the knee. Last
year he had artificial legs made
and can get around about as well
as ever. Fact is, just to look at
him one would hardly realize that
his lower limbs were gone. Man
has so advanced in knowledge that
he can almost make a man and we
wonder if there is any limit to his
knowledge.—Purcell Register.
ICE PLANT WILL
BE ENLARGED
Although the present ice plant j
of the Norman Milling and Grain
company is sufficient to furnish
all citizens of Norman and vicini-
ty with plenty of ice, that is about
all it can do, and demands from
the outlying towns have to go un-
supplied. The demand this year
is the largest of any year in the
plant's existence, indicating the
town's steady growth in popula-
tion.
The Transcript understands
that Mr. Larsh is now contem-
plating doubling the present ca-
pacity .making it seventy tons per
day instead of thirty-five, and may
add 50 tons to the present out-
put. It could sell every bit of that
quantity at the present time and
the demand in 1920 for home con-
sumption promises to be greatly
increased over this year's .

keep their contents hot for 24

—because it is made with a

Bottle does both. You can
put all baby's milk for the day
into a Thermos Bottle, and
take baby for a whole day's

pour the milk into the nursing

temperature as when you plac-
