Southern and contrul Texas la suf-
fering from drouth ami ib-tei ioration is
noted In all diHtricts south and west
or Waco while in parts of the north-
ern belt the prospect is regarded as
slightly less flattering. It is excessive-
ly dry over about 50 per cent of North
Carolina and boll weevils arc much
more numerous in Mississippi.
Spcakius broadly there was ad-
vancement cast of the Mississippi
river and also In stales west with
the exception of Texas.
The plant is comhiR slowly to ma-
turity and there is much less than
the usual August deterioration. In the
Mississippi valley states the fruit set
is unusually heavy and the plant
though not large will make a very fill
yield if the autumn is favorable and
frosts are sufficiently delayed.
Cultivation is -practically complete
now In all sections.
Cotlon Is opening; very fast in Tex-
as but slowly in other states. The
movement will be delayed about ten
days or two weeks beyond the usual
time before it gains any volu'me.

MARKET DAY NEXT MONDAY.
Besides having the distinction of be-
ing Labor Day next Monday will" also
be "Market Day" and Col. Hubbard
will again hold forth on the corner of
Fifth street and Choctaw avenue and
will place on the block for sale any
article from a darning needle to a
threshing machine that is brought ;u
him at tbai time and place for the pur-
pose of being sold.
The idea of Market Day has grown
uiiou the people in the vicinity ol
Chickasha since lis birthday several
years ago and not a first Monday in
any month passes that the market
place is not crowded long before the
sale begins. Col. Hubbard says next
Monday promises to be a red Itttef
(lay in the history of Chickasha mar-
ket days.

SUPERPHOSPHATE
iiS A FERTILIZER

Yinita Uuia. Aug. 1
Swift & Company
Kansas City Kins.
Dear Sirs:
Last fall 1 tried your fertilizer (Sup-
erphosphate) on my arm near Vinila
Oklahoma and am veil pleased with
the results. 1 had my land well pre-
pared using the fertilizer with forty
acres of wheat land and I had twelve
acres of land that was prepared for
wheat at the same time and the wheat
was drilled on the twelve acres of
land without the fertilizer in the
same week that the ;!ieat was drilled
in on the forty acres of land. I found
that the fertilized wheat was ready lo
cut ten days earlier than the unfer-
tilized wheat. We have just finished
threshing the wheat aud the fertilized
wheat made an average of sevetcen
bushels per acre and the unfertilized
land produced eight bushels to the
acre.
I bad one small tract of land in
wheat and In sowing same we used a
sack of the fertilizer and after it was
gone we sowed the rest of the land
without the fertilizor and when har-
vest time came the wheat that was
fertilized was cut and made seventeen
bushels per acre and that where tno
fertilizer was not used was not good
enough to cut.
Yours truly
(Signed) J. C. STARR.
"The Chickasha Milling company
will have Swift's Superphosphate on
band for stile in September. If you
are interested call a. their ollice
