1 wish to make the following
statement regarding Senate bill
No. 357 by Davis, which bill 1 be-
lieve to be of great value in devel-
oping the dairy industry in Okla
lioma and in securing better prices
to the farmers for their cream.
I wish to state that this bill has
the endorsement of the authorities
jf the A. & M. College at Still-
water and of the State Board of
Agriculture of Oklahoma and of
the Dairy Division of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. With
such backing it must be apparent
to every dairy farmer that it is to
his interest to give what support
he can in securing the passage of
this bill.
The bill provides for a State
Dairy Commissioner and Dairy In-
spectors whose duty it is to foster
ind promote the dairy industry of
bis state, help the farmers and
reamerieg in making better butter
and get better prices for the butter
which is made. This bill is worthy
f your support and you can be of
great assistance in securing its
passage if you will write to your
representatives in the legislature,
also assist your local creamery in
petitioning the legislature for the
passage of this bill.
Your immediate action is.need-
ed and 1 believe that you are
read\r and willing to co-operate
with the farmers of this state in
securing the passage of this bill
which means so much to the de-
velopment of the dairy industry
and to the agricultural interests
of this state.
Yours respectfully,
ROY C. POTTS,
Secretary of the Oklahoma Dairy-
men's Association, Stillwater.
McEwen Released
Ed. McEwen, who was released
through habeas corpus proceedings

"I shall not bring the matter be-
fore the grand jury as it now

j lioardon. The order of the court
j will be respected unless new devel
jiipnients arise."

rone to bis father's farm north of
the city, immediately after his re-
ease.—Oklahoman.

Courts Far Behind
The courts in Oklahoma county
are very for behind in their work and
according to the statement of the
deputy district clerk thev are getting
"no better much fast", for they are
eleven cases behind what they were
when they began to operate two courts
in Oklahoma county in an e'fort to
catch up with the work.
It is an exceding'y busy place around
the court house now as both District
Judges, Clark and Lowe, are holding
court, and Judge Cottral, of the Fed-
eral Court, is busy, while County
Judge Hooker never gets a chance to
catch up. It looks like arrangements
for two district courts for Oklahoma
j county would soon have to be made,
WOKK GUARANTEED.

THE FAMILY COW.
The family cow Is becoming obso-
lete Time was when village residents
were wont to have a brown-eyed bo-
vine in the family. Her clover breath
was no less famed than her butter and
as an alarm clock in the morning she
was reliability itself. The docile crea-
ture was referred to by the "women
folk*;" as "bossy." She was milked by
pa when he came home tired at night
and who ever and anon awakened the
echoes of the neighborhood, shouting.
"So! So! Boss! Durn ye, so!" when
she got her tail in the milk pail or
swatted him with the burrs in the end
of it.
The boy of the household was
yanked out of bed every morning
about 5:?.0 o'clock to drive the beast
to pasture. His parents told him the
task taught him diligence. Usuall>
he was too sleepy to be diligent ex-
cept when the cow wandered into a i
hardby sweet-corn patch and the dogs j
chased her. Every time company ;
came ma would brag about 'our cow
and show the visitors how much .milk
she gave and how thick the cream
was.
This was the status of the cow busl- j
ness in many little cities a few years
ago, but alas! a proud family senti
merit has decreed that it is no more j
proper to keep a cow than a pig, even I
though the bovine may not be kept ;
in the parlor, as the old song tells us
the pig was. The rural mill man who
was wont to sell Vran and "shorts,"
mixed corn and oats, to coddle bossy
into "giving down her milk," is author-
ity for the statement that the town
cow is fast disappearing with hor
tether toward the broad farms and the
butcher's slaughter house. The cruol
and yet aesthetic hand of civilisation
has slapped the cow northwest of her
backbone and chased her ruthlessly
out of the brick-paved streets and the
lawn tennis courts into tlie pastoral
quietude of the country. She has been
made to feel that she is a plebian
rather than an aristocrat, and the pass-
ing of the town cow is complete. Thick
rich cream is no longer known to the
younger generation, whose opinion of
this luscious, yellowish product is
rather blue, to say the least. -
