Well Whcre'll You Go?
Are Tmi thinking of "leaving the

nro lots of places Ohio for example
is a statu where corn rarely falls and
where last March Hoods did damage
amounting to upnards of $1000001)00
That Is more than the cost of all tho
drouths Oklahoma has ever had. Per-
haps you have read of California's
beautiful groves of oranges and other
tropical fruits; and of the graceful
waving palms the salubrious climate
and the certainty of production under
irrigation. Hut don't forget that in
one night Inst spring a freeze did more
damage than the drouths of 11)01 11)11
aud 1013 cost Oklahoma. Maybe
you're thinking of putting n covor on
the wagon and hitting the trail back
to your wife's folks in Kansas or Mis-
souri. Tliey don't want you espec-
ially in Kansas where they've been
hauling water and shipping nut their
livestock becausn of thn effects of the-
drouth Or you may conclude that
you'll go 'way back east : to northeast-

green." Late in July the blue grass
pastures were so dry that sparks from
the locomothes set the grass on tire.
Forgptltl Read the letters from Ma
jor and Blaln counties western Okla
homa. In this Issue This If over Is
the time to stick to stay and to win
your wuy out of your present dilllcul-
tie3. The advertisements of Florida
lands may look pretty and read well;
but 'hey tell nothing of tho sand and
the swamps and the grief tvhtnli is the
portion of the wanderers who never
permanently light. If I knew of a
better place than Oklahoma I'd be
there. If I felt that the present con-
dition of things in Oklahoma Is an
inevitable conequencu of the soil and
climate of the state I d leave right
now. Hut I know of no better place
and I likewise know that when In Ok-
lahoma we mice learn to do the things
that we know ought to be done yeare
of drouth will have lost their terror.

Know No Such Word as Fail.
That Bearer county farmors know
no such word us ' fail" is being plainly
demonstrated by their work this fall
Notwithstanding the almost total fail-
ure of crops tins summer nnd the ninny
discouragements with which they haic
had to contend yet our farmers have
not lost heart by any means and they
arc going into their fall work with a
will and vim which deserves success
and which is going to bring Heaver
county to the front
The ground is in bettor shaps to re-
ceive tho seed than it has ever been
for the constant working given it this
year in order to get oven a Btnall yield
has kept it free from weeiU and it is
loose and loamy conserving all the
moisture it receives from those fine
rains and corking the luttlo for future
use.
If Dearer oounty dons not produce a
wonderful yiold next season it will not
be the fault of her farmers for they
are certainty doing their work and do
log It well
About the scarcest commodity in
Be trer this week is news and money
There hasn't been unouih of either to
Hag a hot toinalo wagon. It Is a
mighty tough propiilllon to get up a
live readable newspapur under such
circumstances. We huvu got a bit of
news though that it out of the ordi-
nary and that which we cin't In Ho-
cused of springing every week an! that
is the line rains which have fallen.
The ground is gutting a thorough soak-
ing and put In excellent shape for
wheat sowing and the farmers are mak-
ing every moment count in getting the
seed in the ground. Thousands of
acres of wheat are being sowed and
from all Indiottioiu it looks like next
season Is going to be u mighty good
risk on thaUpartlcular grain. If we
have a favorable season a bumper yield
will bs produced for the ground is in
tine shape nnd fall sowing was never
done under better conditions. We
don't believe those who can do so will
miss it if they plant wheat this year.

If we publish Jokes people say wo are
rattle brained. If we publish original
matter thoy say that wo don't give
them enough seleotloni. If wo give
Jiein selections they sBy we aro too
lary to write. If we don't go to church
we ure heathen ; if wo do go wo are
hypocrites. If we remain at the oHIce
ve ought to be out getting news Items;
if we go out then we aro not attend-

tlnjy laugh at us; If wo wear good

what are we to do? Just as likely as
