Hillside farmers in the United
States lost $1,000,000 last year. Ter-
racing will save tha' waste.
Demonstrations in rar'ous parts of
the county will be given by Professor
Hazen from the A. and M engineer-
ing department on Wednesday. Aug.
4. Any farmers in different neigh-
borhoods who wish demonstrations
made on their land may apply to the
county agent at the rotirthouse to
make arrangements, according to P.
K. Ntfrris, Cleveland county agricul-
tural agent
From slopes the cream of the soil
washes into the bottoms with every
rain, leaving upland fields thin and
even barred while flat lands receive
rich alluvial deposits with every
shower.
Washing takes more from hill fields
than the c^ops planted, it is estimated
by experts of the Bureau of Agricul-
ture.
Should Be Terraced.
Naturally the greater the slope the
greater the loss. Rows cultivated up
and down the slopes helps to wash
soil away, while if they run crosswise
or around inclines, the rows help to
stop as much erosion of soil as can
be checked by terracing, however,
Both should be employed.
Sheet washing on land is not no-
ticeable until it begins to form gul-
leys It causes almost as much loss
without the tiny watercourses as if
they were there to call attention to
them, in spite of that, it has been pro-
ved.
Ridge terracing is the form to start
with according to the county agent.
That is done by throwing yp earth
with a plow or grader to form a ridge
with at least a six foot base running
around the slope.
These ridges are thrown up every
few yards down the sloping field to
keep the water from running off
quickly and to provide places for it
to bank up and drop its silt before
rushjngn /awfry. Plotfs and other
farm machinery can pass over without
trouble since the ridges are low.
Scores were trhee each at close of
the hard scrimmaged polo match
played by Junior chamber and Army
teams on Baehr field Thursday even,
ing.
The "Colonel" for the Army and
"Hap" Johnson for the Junior team
did stellar work in the hard-ridden,
terrific clashes of horse and man.
Graham Johnson made two scores
for the Juniors. "Hap" drove in the
other.
Seargt. Shraeder slashed two in
for the Army and Baehr made their
other tally
This was a regulation polo match
of 7 and one-half minute quarters
refereed by Seargt. L. W. Lee.
Paris, France, Fish
Tackle Man Inquires
About Local Dealers
C. W. Kuwitzky, secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce, has
received a letter from E. Beaume,
9 Rue Ckpeyron, Paris, 8e ARRt,
asking for names and addresses
of fishing tackle dealers and re-
tailers of the town and district.
According to his letterhead,
which is printed in large type and
with red ink, presenting a rather
"loud" appearance, Beaume is a
pisciculteur, evidently manufac-
turing his own tackle.
It is not known whether he had
heard of the wonderful prowess
along piscatorial lines of Fred
Reed or not, but evidently he has
and expects to land a large order
by getting in touch with him.

MUST VOTE OWN TICKET
OKLAHOMA CITY, July j0.—(.Special. 1—In answeriitg a communi-
cation received from li. I Payne of Sand Creek, regarding the right to
vote by members of different political parties in the coming primary, Hon.
r, E. Wood, assistant attorney general of the state,, has this to soy: "In
the primary election, the officers of the election who furnish a man who
is registered as a democrat with a republican tickct, a socialist ticket, or an
independent ticket is guilty of a misdemeanor and should be punished fot
so doing. The law contemplates that voters shall not have in their pos-
session at any primary election a ticket in a party different from the party
in which -such voter is registered, so the officer of the election helping a
person to vote a different ticket from his registration, is himself a violator
of the law, as well as the voter who so acts."

> evening, so that first class tests and
merit badges may be taken on the

Scouts wishing to go on the hike

field at 6 p. m. with the grub for sup-
per and breakfast and a blanket.
853 NEW VOTERS ARE
REGISTERED IN NORMAN
According to reports of the pre-
cinct registrars for Norman, 853 vo-
ters registered in the ten day's time
which ended last Friday night.
Mrs Texie Alder, registrar for
ward 4, leads the list with 214. J. W.
Armstrong registered 130 in ward 1,
E. B. Kimberlin 134 in ward 2, Rob-
ert Barbour 175 in precinct 1 ward 3,
A. W. Toberman 200 m precinct 2 of
ward 3
One woman registered as socialist
in ward 2, and also inquired if she
could register her husband, who was
then in Enid. Upon being told that
it was not allowed, she replied that
she didn't care anyway, for her hus-
band's vote would cancel hers.
You never realize how many men
there afe out of work until you start
to do some outdoor iob that is a lit-
tle difficult of performance.

Boys who are interested in the pig
and calf clubs are invited by County
Agent P. k. Norris to prepare for the
fat stock show at Oklahoma City next
March.
Plans for boys or girls to raise a
calf or two or three pigs to enter the
fat stock show and be sold at several
cents per pound more than regular
market price have been made.
Fifteen or twenty calves and thirty-
five or forty pigs are wanted in the
contest.
If some boys or girls want to enter
in either or both contests but do not
have the young animals with which to
work, they can borrow the money to
buy them, from the Oklahoma Co-
operative Livestcok association
through the county agent.
Will Re Vaccinated
These young animals entered will
be vaccinated against cholera, and
blackleg and other diseases, so there
will be little chance of loss in that
way. If an animal bought in this
manner were lost in some way, money
for another purchase would be ob-
tainable and a chance given to make
enough to pay both debts.
Twenty-five of the best pigs and
fifteen of the best calves will be
brought to Norman about the first of
next March, and after a parade
through town, loaded into cars for
he live-stock show at Oklahoma City,
where they will be on exhibit and
ater sold at fancy prices for the
young owners. The fat stock show
ts scheduled for the first week of
March.
Here's Eligible List
Steer calves born between Septem-
ber 1, 1919, and May 1, 1920, to which
heavy feeding is begun on or after
November 1, 1920, are the only elig-
ible ones for young folks to raise in
this contest.
Pigs farrowed between March I,
1920 and September 1, 1920, to which
heavy feeding begins on or_ after De-
cember 1, 1920, will be eligible.
Any information not given here may
be obtained from P. k. Norris, Cleve-
land county agricultural agent, at the
courthouse in Norman.
Give some people a bite of an ap-
ole and there'll be no core.
To the voters of the Fifth congres-
sional district;
W ith the primary just a few days
| oft, we, the women of Cleveland coun-
ty wish to bring before the women
voters of the Fifth congressional dis-
trict our reasons for supporting and
asking suport for Judge Swank on
August 3, 1920.
We, as women, do feel that before
casting our vote for any candidate the
three following characteristics must
be considered—competency, efficiency
and moral cleanliness. We are asking
you to support Judge Swank because
we are recommending to you a man
in which all these qualities are found
We believe that when a man has
lived in a district thirtyfive years that
he should know the needs of the
people. We believe Judge Swank
knows these better than any candi-
date for the office he is seeking be-
j cause he has fought his way ur from
a farm hand to district judge, and we
believe because he has honestly and
faithfully served his constituents well
in this capacity that he will make a
good congresman..
As to his efficiency we can do no
more than to refer you to his record
I since he has held a public ofice in this
district.
As to his moral cleanliness there is
no room for question. A candidate
may be capable and efficient but if
he is not a clean, honest man, he is
not worthy of the support of fellow
democrats. During Judge Swank's
term of office he has gained the con-
fidence of the people because he
could not be influenced from what he
considered right. We are asking you
to support him for congress in order
that we may gain through out ballot
that which we have aspired to gain
through suffrage—cleaner politics.

extremely glad that she enjoyed her-
