Alia Pioneer Arrmngemeuu lo fur-
nish seed and erect a cotton gin and
other essential machinery as far as
may be necessary are completed suf-
ficiently to say to the farmers of this
county that if they want to try cotton
raising the seed and machinery will
be guaranteed, provided they agree to
plant and cultivate the crop. Every
farmer who wann to plant some or
who wants to hear alout its culture,
and the plan of this proposition, is
earnestly requested to attend this
meeting It is believed that cotton
raising will be a success, although it
is known that \Vo >ds county cannot
glut the cotton market of the world
with iu crup. It is advised that those
who try it plant only about ten or tif-
leeu acres. Around Waynoka they
think they can plant about .">00 acres.
Along tin Medicine River valley
and north and eastern por-
tion of this county they think
at least a thousand acres may be plant-
ed. South of Alva to the Cimarron,
una east as far as is convenient to the
K'in another hundred farmers can be
found to put in ten acres apiece. The
Salt Fork valley would furnish an
other five hundred acres. At even half
a bale per acre this would bring at
the railroad J.tOO.ncio, without couut-
'I'n ?"y urop south of the Cimarron.
All of these estimates are reasonable.
Uuthrie alone has paid out about a
hulf million dollars for cotton this
season, other portions of oklahoma
sold enough to bring the total nearly
up to a million dollars Shall Woods
county experience the pleasure of
having at least a quarter of a million
dollars in circulation on cotton crop
alone during next fall and winter?
The answer is in the minds of our
farmers.
About u dozen firms In Alva, have
agreed to buy the cotton seed and fur-
nish it to the farmers at cost.

Mr. W. J. Olds severs his conection
with the l'erry Patriot, the pop organ
of Noble county, as follows:
"We" retire from the duties and re-
sponsibilities of conducting a pop
paper with this issue of the Patriot.
To the friends who have shared with
us their coin and encouragement we
are grateful We thank everybody
and everything that have contributed
to our deliverance, aud implore the
mercy of Divine Providence upon our
successor; We freely forgive all who
were instrumental either in bringing
us here or prolonging our stay, and ask
our dear readers to do likewise. A
fair trial has convinced us that popu-
lists of this county do not want a news-
paper, and only hope those who owe
us on subscription will invest in a bible
apiece and study and profit by the
Proverbs of Solomon. We have ar-
ranged to have unexpired subscrip-
tions fulfilled and all that is left us to
leave town with is—Waltkk Olds."
