STATE NEWS
HOT WAVE SWEEPS OVER STATE
Crops In Many Sections Are Consid-
ably Damaged
Oklahoma City—Hot winds, accom-
panied by unprecedented heat, swept
over Oklahoma last week. From many
points, and especially the southwest,
come reports that the thermometer
had rises as high as one hundred and
ten degrees In the shade. The hot
winds have done a great deal of dam-
age to the corn, wheat and oat crops
and will cause them to be harvested
early. Fruit and garden products have
felt the hot winds, and in many places
are drying up.
A general survey of the state
shows that the following sections are
suffering most: Durant, Altus, Law-
ton, Ardmore, and the entire south
and southwest.
It is stated that if the hot winds
continue they will practically kill all
the crops, except cotton. Cotton at
this time is in need of hot weather.
There has been-' too much rain for
cotton this spring.
The fact that the hot winds are
principally in the south and south-
western section of Oklahoma is en-
couraging because of the large cot-
ton crop grown in that section of the
state. Corn, oats and wheat are the
principal crops in eastern and north-
ern Oklahoma, the sjecticu that is
least visited by the much dreaded
tot winds.

SALE OF LANDS ENJOINED
Muskogee Judge Issues Restraining
Order Against Attorneys.
Muskogee, Okla.—Judge Ralph E.
Campbell at the instance of the
United States attorney of the east-
ern district, has issued a temporary
restraining order against the 'county
treasurers of twenty-four counties in
Eastern Oklahoma, prohibiting them
from selling for taxes restricted In-
dian lands and the alloment of mi-
nor Indians.
Under the state law county treas-
urers mu3t advertise and offer for

Is to prevent such sales.
The restraining order is returnable
July 18, when the case will be argued

CHARGES ARE GROUNDLESS
Investigation Shows Oklahoma City's
Census to be all Right.
Washington, D. C.,—'^Charges un-
sustained" was the verdict rendered
at the census office in the case of
Wichita vs. Oklahoma City. The for-
mer, through some of its more zeal-
ous citizens, had accused Supervisor
J. H. Langston of the second congres-
sional district with padding the cen-
sus returns in Oklahoma City, and
when the report reached Washington
it was not long before director Dur-
and called upon Mr. Langston for an
"explanation."
OLD LADY'S THOUGHTFUL ACT
Didn't Mean Beloved Pastor's Diges-
tion Should Suffer If She Could
Help It.
One morning a popular young min-
ister was presenting bis views upon
an Important subject under discussion,
says the National Monthly, and insist-
ing that he held certain things to be
true, the commentators notwithstand-
ing. He continued, "I hold this to be
true, even though the commentators
disagree with me—and again—I say,
even though the commentators disa-
gree with me."
At this point an old lady was seen
to leave the church. On hlB way home
from the service the minister was
met by this old lady, bearing a basket.
She stopped and handed it to him,
saying: "Dear brother, I heerd you
say thet common 'taters disagree with
you, so I've brought you a basket
of Virginia yams."

Committee on Disease in Europe Says
Corn Is Not to Blame.
London, May 14.—Dr. Sambon, a
member of the Field committee which
has been investigating the disease
pellagra, telegraphs from Rome that
the committee has definitely proved
that maize or Indian corn is not the
cause of pellagra.
The committee finds that the para-
sitic conveyor of the disease is the
"simullum repans," a species of biting
gnat.

The freat success of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical DJi-
cevery in curia* week stomachs, wasted bodies, weak

(he recognition of the fundamental truth that "Goldea
Medical Discovery" supplies Nature with body-build-
ing, tissue-repairing, muscle-making materials, in oon-
densed and concentrated form. With this help Nature
eupplies the necessary strength to the stomach to digest
food, build up the body and thereby throw off lingering
obstinate coughs. The "Discovery" re-establishes the
digestive and nutritive organs in sound health, purifies
and enriches the blood, and nourishes the serves—in
short establishes sound vigorous health.

For weak women, who Buffer from women's ilia, there is a

Wichita cannot hope to equal, hence

people of Woodward, ln the second
congressional district. In some myst-
erious manner Woodward has learned
that the census will only show 2,200
souls. This is preposterous, they say.
