Be Held Soon
A bigger Commercial and Karm liu-r-au

culture in the county may be placed
on a mure stable and profitable basis
ia assured by the hearty response that
the tuwnM of (iritdy coutiiy are giving
to the invitation that his been extend-
ed to them.
At a meeting of the directors of the
bureau Friday afternoon It ai re-
ported that Tuttle Minco. Verden and
Alex had lined up on the movement
pledging substantial financial support
and a large number of citizens of those
towns were admitted to menibei ship
ill the organization.
Other town? In the county are to he
Invited to come into the bureau and
farmer are also urged to become ac-
tively interested with a view to Im-
proving farm methods and thereby
making the noil produce from two to
five times the revenue at present
and making farm operation decidedly
more certain and satisfactory. The
object of the movement also Include
The maintenance and increasing of oil
fertility and tii reduction to a mini-
mum by conservation of moisture of
the louse caused by periodical drouth.
Mr. McNabb will at once take up
the locating of demonstration farm
around the towns that have pledged
their support to the bureau and later
on it i hoped that such farm may be
established in the vicinity of all the
towns In the count'i. Next year It is
planned to have at hast 1 'mi farm In
operation a ceynparcd with about 10
tills year and the boys' club work
which numbered 1 l!l members this
year will be more' than doubled. '
But how in ne man to supervise no
many farms? That was a troublesome
iiestion till the directors of the bu-
reau decided to buy an auto for Mr.
McNabb but It will be easy to do U j
now. In a runabout the agent will be
able to keep In clone touch with every
demonstrator covering two or three
times a much territory an he could
without a car. The purchase. . f a run-
about wan authorised by fie board
Friday and Mr. McNabb will now be
able to meet the requirement of the
department of agriculture hy visiting
every demonxtrator at leant once every
Mi day.
"In erery install i where the noil is
not of the blowing kind" said Mr. Mc-
N'abh "we exef t to require fall plow-
ing to a good depth followed by thor-
ough working to an Ideal deed bed. We
Khali insist that seed of high grade
and pure type be used for all demon-
stration crops and shall require thor-
ough cultivation through the entire
growing period. Wc are confident
that we can exceed any yields made
this season although in at least one
instance a c'ub boy made over 1:
bushels of corn per acre and ft num-
ber of other averaged from TO to 90
bushels."
In furtherance of the county-wide I
co-operation Idea it is planned to hold
a big "get-together'' meeting in Chick-
asha about November ?0 when all Io-
ta! members together with tanners
and citizens of other towns w ill be
invited to gather and boost the move-
ment At this time Mr. McNabb Is laying
titress on deep fall plowing for which
be says the soil Is now in ideal con-
dition. "In many Instances fall plow-
ing is a failure because it isn't fol-
lowed by thorough working and com-
pacting. We shall insist upon tne 'al-
ter as muh as the deep plowing" said
Mr. McNabb.
"Another thing" said the agent "the
conditions were never more favorable
for preparing the noil to sow alfalfa
In the spring. We wouldn't have too
much alfalfa if one haif of the valleys
of the two Washita were planted to
Local Lads Win
By a Close Score
Nix on that kind of gabfest can that
line of bunk about a ham foot-ball
team heave that buuch of crepe into
the garbage can and unfurl the big
banner. The Chickasha gridiron glad-
iators have "came back" by nosing

down heavy on the bass drum.
Once again Chickasha is established
among the select in lootball circle aim
tiie world looks rosy. The purple and
gold warriors were called upon in a
pinch and they delivered the goods.
Had the result of the game been re-
versed the skids would have been un-
der Chickasha and for this year the
erstwhile redoubtablo cohorts would
have been snooting like a meteor over
the cliff beyond which is temporary
oblivion. But nay Claudius not so.

i uey i.ave morally ciimueu me mil
and the local bugs have begun to talk
about t lie Shawnee game in large ai.d
enthusiastic voices.
Though but on "Vilnt separated the
two score at the end of the battle
that same one little point was enough
and victory came over and climbed
upon the Chli kt'.sl.a banner. To Pool
and Whit taker go the honors for pull-
ing off the play that touched off the
nitro In the midst of the Oklahoma
City holies and to Ward goes the
credit for registering the point that de-
cided the game. At that. Ward's
chance at goal was easy and had he
missed the game would have been a
tie with a strong probability that the
neighborhood of ChleVnsha Okla. V.
S. A. would have been quite unhealth-
ful for said Ward during several gen-
eration. ' He delivered the required
kick however and the necessity of bis
scouting Indefinitely Is precluded.
At that only a few moments remain-
ed to play and they had begun to fig-
ure out the long end of the gate
money when the aforesaid duo. Pool
and Whlttaker executed the double
this crop. I kuow the farmer fears
ha will have to sell it at $' or $7 a
ton but more often it brings over $15
as it does now."
U. M. Evans secretary of the bu-
reau reported that some of tne local
members through oversight or other-
wise were delinquent in their dues.
It is hoped that all the members will
make good their pledges and thus keep
the movement going.
THAW IS
LOSER BY
DECISION
Got. Felker Signs Extradition Pa-
pert for His Return to New
York but Case May Drag
Along for Years
Telegram by United Press. i
Concord Nov. 8. Oov. Kelker to-
day signed extradition paper for tlio (
return of Harry Thaw to the New York
county on charge of conspiracy. The
case now goes to the I'nited States
district court because a w rit of habeas
corpus is pending.
Extradition doe not mean that Thaw
will return to Matteawan immediate-
ly. The fight may last years as both
aide are determined to carry it to
the supreme court.
Neither Attorney Jerome nor Sher-
iff Dornbeck of Duchess county was
deputized to receive the fugitive here
as it is a foregone conclusion that be
will not be taken back to New York
on account of the pending writ.
Judge Albrich of the I'nited States
district court at the hearing of the ha-
beas corpus case said he would con-
sider the case within fiv days after he
received notice. Thaw's lawyer asked
that notice be sent this afternoon but
the hearing may be dolayed by other
engagements of the justice.
Oov. Felker appointed Sheriff Frew
to keep Thaw in custody until the writ
is filed by agreement. Thaw's attor-
neys have until Monday November
17 to file an amendment to the ha-
beas corpus writ in the I'nited States
district court at Littleton. The new-
writ will charge that Thaw is Illegally
held under the New York requisition
papers.

inside football and one by one regis-
tered using the hook slide while Ok-
lahoma City dreamed of a cross be
tween a line plunge by Hamilton and
how their best girls were going to pal
them on the vet and whisper "M
Hero" into their receptive ears.
With the ball on Oklahoma City's
five yard line brought thither by for-
ward passes and end runs and while
the last quarter waned l'ool quietly
slipped far out on the left flank o!
the enemy and waited unnoticed.
When the ball was snapped the Okla
bonia line charged to smash the ex-
pected line plunge but nothing wat
lurther from the mind cf "Chink'
Whlttaker than a line plunge. Fool
dashed over the line and Whittaker
shot him the oval like Schang peg-
ging a pilfering Oiant at second. The
Oklaiioii.u backs seeing the play being
executed tried frantically to intercept
the pass but too late. Pool froze to
the ball like a bankrupt count to an
American heiress. When Ward kick-
ed goal It was all off and the little
birds began to call plaintively from
the trees about the park.
Oklahoma started off with a rush
and registered a touchdown in the first
half when fighting stubornly the
Chickasha line was forced back and
Swatek went over with the pigskin.
Wallace is the goat for his attempt
at goal w ent a steenth of an inch wide
struck the cross bar and bounded back
into the field worthless.
During the first half the game was
wag"j largely in Chickasha territory
and once when Oklahoma essayed a
lield goal. Sales broke through t he line
and blocked the kick. Had the kick
gone true a different story would have
been told. Sales played the best game
of his career yesterday and promised
better things for the future.
In the last half Chickasha drove
the fighting and forced Oklahoma
back into its own territory wliere the
remainder of the battle was staged.

votes was not cast.
Huerta is obstinate and hopes to

ANOTHER FIGHT ON
COMPERS EXPECTED
Socialists and Other Radicals to
Renew Effort to Wrest Control
from Conservative Wing
Demand Labor Party
Telegram by I'nited Pfes
Seattle Wash. Nov. 8. The advance
guard of what Is expected to be the
largest and most important gathering
of lator leaders the country ever has
known is assembling in Seattle today.
Tine occasion is tb thirty-third annual
convention of the American Federation
ot Labor which will be opened here
Monday morning with President Sam-
uel (iompers presiding. Nearly one
thousand delegates representing more
than two and a half million skilled
workers of the Cnlted States ar.u Can-
ada are expected to be in their seats
when President Oompers Calls the
great meeting to order. More than nie
hundred and twenty-five great national
and International labor organizations
consisting of about 21000 local unions
will be represented.
The coming meeting Is fraught with
deep significance toward both labor-
ing men of the country and the great
political parties. One undercurrent
which may break above the surface is
a proposition to form a labor party in
this country. Many are clamoring fnr
this to be done immediately. Others
and they appear to be In the majority
expressed themselves today informal-
ly as being more inclined to hold back
this year to give the Wilson adminis-
tration a chance to show what it is go-
ing to do. However the matter has
advanced so far that there has been
much talk of appointing a committee
to confer with the Socialists on the
subject of a labor party. The Social-
ists It was understood today would
unanimously favor bucIi a proposition
provided of course that it would not
mean elimination of the Individuality
of the Socialist party.
That the old fight against the so-
called "ultra conservative policies" pt
C.ompers will again materialize and
that (Iompers will again be opposed for
re-election by some member of the
group which believes in more direct
and more radical political action for
unionism was openly asserted today
in the radical camp. Max Hays who
polled icon votes as a candidate for
president last year against the 11000
given to (Iompers declared today that
he will "not run again this year. But
lie intimated that when the right man
is chosen to oppose ('iompers he will
work tooth and nail for him. The
turning of one big union against Gomp-
ers in the opinion of Hays will defeat
the present incumbent for re-election.
While the Socialists who are leading
the opposition to Compers are far
from being sanguine of success as to
electing their choice for president
they do lieve that in the matter of
minor offices and representation on
the executive council their chances
are good.
A hot fight it was declared today
is looked for over the proiiosition to
combine a number of the big Interna-
tional unions. The radical wing sup-
lorted by many who oppose them in
other matters will urge the amalgama-
tion of internationals of Journeymen
tailors ladies' garment workers
men garment workers hatter;
and neckwear workers into one
big international. There is a sharp
division of opinion on this matter and
there is much evidence that some bit-
terness will develop when it is brought
formally before the convention.
One matter which no doubt wi'!
have the solid backing of all factions
will be the proiiosition to back up the
big strikes of the coal miners in Colo-
rado and of the Western Federation
of Miners who are on Btrike in Calu-
met Mich. Money undoubtedly will
be appropriated for the immediate aid
tit the Calumet copper miners-.
