J. H. Carlisle, a leading mer-

Mrs R. T. Forster and Mrs. P.

H. Mingle says that there ip go-
their team resigned his ijlace, as

Tine game was doubtless a
shock to the team of the northern
town as they won a game from our
boys but a short time back. We
regret that the Piedmont boys
were so discouraged over the game
as to cause the teaiu tu break up
as we expo ted to see a good game
occasionally with our northern
friends.

When Miller Brothers, of the
101 ranch, decided to not only
entertain the members of the Na-
tional Editorial Association at the
ranch on Juue 11, just after the
meeting of the Association in
Guthrie, Okla.. but also to give
the people of Oklahoma and Kan-
sas an opportunity to see the en-
tertainment prepared for the
editors, they were confronted by
the very serious question of feed-
ing the people. They got out of
it in easy shape by letting tho
contract to the J. E Hutt con-
tracting company. This company
will feed the people who are not
members of the editorial associa-
tion or the especially invited
guests of the Miller Brothers
These will be cared for by Miller
Brothers themselves and one of
the items on the menu for their
uoot)-duy meal is buti'ulo steak.

The farm mortgage, though
sometimes a necessary evil, and
often a decidec. advantage, . not
often spoken of in justification,
but a writer ii; this week's Farmer|
and Stockman, Mr L Lowe, de-
clares that tiling wet sloughs is a
sufficient excuse to mortgage the
farm it' the money cannot be raised
in any other way. Mr. Lowe, who
lias had extensive experience in
tiling lands, calls attention to the
fact that sloughs are the only
really cheap lands we have left in
the thickly settled portions of the
corn belt. He undertakes to tell
how tile should be selected, how
