AMONG THE BOOKS.
Miss Katherlne Holland Brown, tho
author of tho girls' college story,
•'Phlllppa nt Halcyon," Just published
by Charles Scrilmer's Sons, was her-
self a college girl. She quickly es-
tablished herself as a writer of short
Stories for tho magazines. Her lrsf.
work before 'Thi|ippa" was "The
Messenger," puWished this spring by
tlif Scribnor's in th>< little R0 cent odl-
tlon of tho form of "The Perfect Tri-
bute."
Aside from its value as a story pure
and simple, "Phlllppa at Halcyon"
throws a good deal of light upon the
present controversy as to tho compar-
ative wisdom of rooming In smnll
Jiouses or large dormitories.
Miss Brown now lives at Qulney, Til.

Oklahoma republicans will have a splen-
did ticket to choose from at tm^primary
of Auguat li, every place on tho state, ju-
dicial and congressional tickets being
thled, and a half dosen vacat -iCs on me
entire legislative ticket throughout the
state.
The condition oi the state ticket, the
excellent showing being made by tho re-
publicans, results entirely from tht en-
thusiastic state convention held In Guth-
rie on June 16. when In answer to
Chairman Harris' call a grass roots or-
ganization of tho party was perfected
and a grass roots platform drawn. Tho
several thousand republicans from over
the state, who attended the state conven-
tion, went homo with a zeal and enthu-
siasm to work to redeem th slate, and
ss a result h splendid sot of men have
announced 'or all state offices.
•Chairman Harris now urges republi-
cans to get busy and liavo a full ticket
placed on tho primary ballot in .each
county of the state, nominating ien
for every county and township office, lie
urges that clean and capable men be
named, men who If elected will be big
enough In every respect to onuuet tho
offices and who will bring honor upon
their party. Candidates for county and
township offices have until July 2nd
(Saturday of this week) In which to file
their applications with tho .uunty elec-
tion boanls "Cot busy and get good
men," says Harris.

The first hint from the census depart-
ment of the gains that the census w ii
.-low of population in southwestern
states puts Oklahoma ahead with a ga'n
of 1,'.£0,000 over the 1900 count.
This hint was given in u report made
public by tho Southern Commercial
congress here Thursday. It deals with
five southern stales, and the commercial
congress Is pointing to Oklahoma's gai i
with as much fervor as any Oklahoma
booster.
The report says that 1810 census will

ftates wllL show the greatest gain in

abama.

gain Oklahoma now has a population oi

the time of statehood In 1907,
1,700,000. This gives ttie state an
crease of 340,391 in three years or ap-
tdnce statehood.
According to other estimates compile.I
on government reports Oklahoma's gam I
duting the past ten yesrs is only e<iuaile i
or passe by one state in the union.
Tliis is New York, and tlds state can
hardly be placed In the cstim-te since
it Is the landing place of hundreds ■ t
thousands of foreigners on their arrival
America. While many stay In New
York, the majority established perman-
ent residences in othet parts of tho
union.
Oklahoma's growth is due to many
things, principally to the wonderful pos-
sibilities It offers in both agricultural
and commercial development. As ai
agricultural state (> ihoma Is now rec
ognlsed %< one of the greatest in th
i.atlou. During recent years land of the
highest class could be purchased there
at a very resouable price and this re
suited In a general exodus of farmer

crop was planted too thick.
Cotton Makes Big Improvement.
The growing condition of cotton has
been materially Improved during the
pust month of ideal growing weather
and the crop, although a little late,
will be the largest In years. The fif-
ty counties reporting, show the grow-
ing condition on Juno 25, 1010, to he
86.-1 per cent, as compared with 85.2
per cent last month—an increase of 1.2
per cent. The reports indicate that
the crop has been well cultivated and
Is unusually clean and that the dry
iveather has had but little effect on
he crop. Jefferson county is the
<nly county reporting any riamago
whatever to the crop.
Over 20 Million Bushels of Wheat.

of harvest on June 25. 1909, was 72.7

Reports from sixty-one of the sev-

crease over that of' last yar. The es-
timated total production is 5.287,957
bushels increase over that of last year.
Alfalfa Now A State Crop.
Although the season has been un-
favorable and the dry weather has
damaged the crop in some sections,
.the growing condition of alfalfa is giv-
en «t 90.5..per rent, as compared with
90.6 last month and 7;;.i per cent on
June 25. 1909.
Reports from fifty-four of the sev-
eniv-six <„0e , lti-s reporting show that
the alfalfa hay cut this season is 12.1
per cent greater than that harvested
at this tin# last season. The 1909
agricultural r-tatistics now being com-
piled show that nearly every county
in tin state is now raising alfalfa and
that u 25 per cent increased acreage
is shown over the previous year.
Statistics compiled in May show
.that approximately 25,000 acres have
been planted this season. In many
counties the third hay crop is now
being cut. *

Vanover declared tiia^ he had not Dean

of his knife, Perry, by a back-handed
swipe, severed Vanover's jugular and h«
