WILL ELECT
THAT THE BOARD MAY RECEIVE
THE MORRILL FUND FROM THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT NOW
HELD IN STATE DEPOSITORY.
Oklahoma City Okla. Oct. 11 F.
M. Gault president of the state board
of agriculture said today that a meet-
ing of the board will be held Oct. 15.
This meeting lias been called to elect
a treasurer of the board in pursuance
of the opinion of Attorney General
Kreeling to the effect that Mr. Gault
as president of the board may not
hold the ol'flee of treasurer a position
which he held prior to his election as
president and which has not since
been otherwise filled. The object of
electing a treasurer of the board is in
order that the board may receive the
Morrill fund from the federal govern-
ment now held in the state deposi-
tory which the opinion of the attor-
ney general holds should be in custo-
dy of the treasurer of the board of
agriculture.
Mr. Gault said that the opinion of
the attorney general as to his holding
two offices suits him and that he has
been trying for some time to get one of
the other members of the board to ac-
cept that office but none of them want-
ed to hold it. it seems likely that C.
15. Campbell of Minco a member of
the board will be made treasurer
and that he will at once take meas-
ures to secure the Morrill fund in the
state depository.
May Get Other Funds.
"The fact that a man can not hold
two offices" said Mr. Gault "is well
established in the constitution and
laws of Oklahoma and it gives rise to
the very interesting question as to
how the present state treasurer can
also hold the office of state depository
under the law under which lie is now
operating.
"While we are rearranging things
under the strict terms of the law it is
my intention to see if the board of
agriculture is not entitled to the cus.
tody of part of the funds derived
from sale of the new college and sea
tion 13 lands. Those lands by act of
congress belong to the A. & M. col'
lege and the other state schools the
A. & M. college being owner of 250000
acres of the new college lands and
of one-third undivided interest in the
lands embraced in section 13 in the
entire old part of the state. These
lands belong to the A. & M. college and
the constitution gives the board of agri-
culture sole custody of the funds of
the A. & M. college."
This position of Mr. Gault if insist
ed upon will bring into issue the
funds that are the foundation of the
new home ownership law of Oklaho
ma. If the custody of the share of
the new college and section 13 lands
that belongs to the home ownership
fund should be taken from that fund
it would be impaired to the extent of
about 33 per cent of its present vol
ume. The segregation of control of
these funds from the office of the
school land commission would make
a marked change In the scope of the
powers of that body and would greatly
increase the importance of the board
of agriculture in this regard.
Control of School Lands Defined
Inasmuch as the constitution of the
state gives to the school land commis-
sion full control of all the public lands
of the state in specific terms and sets
forth in detail the powers of the com-
missioners over such lands it seems
unlikely that the contention of the
president of the board of agriculture
for custody of these lands will be suc
cessful.
The board of agriculture was creat
ed by the constitution and its pow
ers were defined as extending to con-
trol of matters affecting animal in
dustry animal quarantine regulations

Best Treatment for Catarrh
S. S. S. Removes the Cause
Specialists in Catarrh troubles have agreed that it Is an infection of
the blood. The laboratories of the S. S. S. Co. nt Atlanta have proven it.
Once you get your blood five from impurities cleansed of the Catarrhal poi-
sons which it is now a prey to because of its unhealthy state1 then you
will be relieved of Catarrh the dripping in the throat hawking and spitting
raw sores in the nostrils and the disagreeable bad breath. It was caused in
the first place because your impoverished blood was easily infected. lVssi-
bly a slight cold or contact with someone who bad a cold. Put the point is
don't suffer with Catarrh it is not neressary. The remedy S. S. S. discov-
ered over fifty years ago tested true and tried is nlways obtainable at any
drug store it has proven its value in thousands of cases. It will do so in
your case (iet S. S. S. nt once and begin treatment. If yours is a long
standing case bo sure to write the S. S. S. Co. Atlanta (in. for free expert
medical advice. They will tell you bow this purely vegetable blood teitiic
cleanses the impurities from the blood by literally washing it clean. They
will prove to you that thousands of sufferers from Catarrh after consistent
treatment with S. S. S. have been freed from the trouble and all its disa-
greeable features and restored to perfect health and vigor. Don't delay the
tmitmeut. Take S. S. S. at once.
and to act as board of regents of the
state Agricultural and Mechanical col-
lege. A decision by the supreme court
a few years ago expanded the pow-
ers of the board to an extent that
seemed to make It free from the stat-
utes that impose certain restrictions
upon other state departments with
reference to their relations to the
state auditor and the state board of
public affairs.
Mr. Gault said that while the read-
justment is under way it is also his in-
tention to make an effort to recover
for the A. Ai M. college the aggregate
of the payments that have been made
out of the Morrill fund to the support
of the Colored Agricultural and Nor-
mal School at Langston that being
$51)0(1 a year for many years past.
This sum has been given the colored
institution out of the federal fund and
Is disbursed through the board of edu-
cation. Mr. Gault says he is not con-
vinced that the diversion of this fund
is legal and it is one of the matters lie
intends to take up at once and have
Investigated with a view to recovering
the money paid If it be possible.
JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
Which is Better Try an Experiment
or Profit by an ArdmOro
Citizen's Experience.
Something new is an experiment.
.Must be proved t0 be as repre-
sented. The statement of a manufacturer is
not convincing proof of merit
Hut the endorsement of friends is.
Xow supposing you had a bad back
A lame weak or aching one
Would you experiment on it?
You will read of many so-cal'-iJ

Endorsed by strangers from far-
away places.
It's different when the endorsement
comes from home.
Easy to prove local testimony.

FIND BOMB IN COTTON BALE
Officers at Crescent City Okla. Will
Make Full Investigation.
Guthrie Okla. Oct. 11. Considera-
ble excitement was occasioned at Cres-
cent City today by the finding of a
large bomb in a bale of cotton. The of-
ficers were at a loss to know the ob-
ject of putting the bomb in the cotton.
The matter will be thoroughly investi-
gated by the local and state authori-
ties. RHEUMATISM AND ALLIED PAINS
THEY MUST GO!
The congestion of the blood in its
flow causes pain. Sloan's Liniment
penetrates to the congestion and starts
the blood to flow freely. The body's
warmth is renewed; the pain is gone.
The "man or woman who has rheuma-
tism neuralgia or other pain and falls
to keep Sloan's Liniment in their home
is like a drowning man refusing a
rope." Why suffer. Get a bottle of
Sloan's. 25cand 50c. $1.00 bottle holds
six times as much as 25c size.
It is costing a good deal of money
for rich Americans in England to be
English.
Chronic Constipation.
"About two fears ago when I began
using Chamberlain's Tablets I had
been suffering for some time with
stomach trouble and chronic constipa-
tion. My condition improved rapidly
through the use of these tablets. Since
taking four or five bottles of them
my health has been fine." writes Mrs.

COMMISIONER'S PAY NOT RAISED
Attorney General Holds Highway Law
Can Not Affect Them.
Oklahoma City Okla. Oct. 11 At-
torney General Kreeling has blighted
the hopes of some County Commis-
sioners that they would be able to col-
lect in addition to their statutory com-
pensation $:l a day each for sixty days
additional under the new highway
law. The new law contemplated per-
mitting such compensation on the the-
ory that the work of the county com-
missioners would be increased by the
highway law. The attorney general
rules that as the present county com-
missioners were chosen before the
highway law was enacted the com-
pensation of their offices may not be
increased by it. State examiner and
Inspector Parkinson Is sending out to
all the County commissioners copies of
the ruling by the attorney general.

CHINESE EGGS AND POULTRY
DEVELOPS LARGE BUSINESS
Hankow China Oct. 11. (Corres-
pondence of The Associated Press)
Prices of eggs chickens and other
poultry are so low in the Yang-tse-kiang
valley that an English company
lias developed a large business in
shipping Buch products to Great Brit-
ain. Practically every Chinese family in
the remote country districts as well as
in the towns and cities keeps chick-
ens. The price of eggs in the villages
accessible to river transportation is
now about three cents gold a dozen.
Spring chickens sell for about six
cents gold each. In remote interior
points where copper coins are still
largely in use the prices are much
lower.
Many of the eggs purchased along
the Yang-tse-kiang are dried for the
use of bakers in Europe and other
parts of the world. The whites and
yolks are dried separately.
For Indigestion.
Never take pepsin and preparations
containing pepsin or other digestive
ferments for indigestion as the more
you take the more you will have to
take. What is needed is a tonic like
Chamberlain's Tablets that will enable
the stomach to perform its functions
naturally. Obtainable everywhere. 1

PIPE LINE
M
IN
INVESTIGATION BY THE GOVERN-
MENT AND ITS OIL EXPERTS
RESULTS IN ABANDONMENT OF
MID-CONTINENT PLANS.
Oklahoma City. Okla.. Oct. 11. Of-
ficial continual ion of the report cir-
culated months ago that the proposed
government pipe line for oil from Ok-
lahoma to the Gulf of Mexico was to
he abandoned has not disturbed the oil
producers of Oklahoma. Oil is now
seiling readily at a price much in ex-
cess of what it brought more than a
year ago when the government pipe
line was agitated and born in a resolu
tion by an Oklahoma member of con-
gress providing for an invest igatiem by
the navy and interior departments as
to the feasibility of constructing such.
Willi the change In conditions produc-
ers who united in resolving that the
government ought to build a pipe line
ami possibly a refinery have forgot-
ten their plea for prosperity by act of
congress.
Independent oil producers of Okla-
homa especially those of the lleald-
lou field urged the government pipe
line more strongly than others for
the probable reason that the produc-
tive field about Ardmore was without
adequate) market facilities and the oil
was worth but little without transpor-
tation facilities.
Invtitifjation by Government.
Cuto Seils commissioner of Indian
affairs and J. O. Richardson a Lieu
tenant in the navy accompanied by
Frank Sample an oil expert of New
York made a trip through Oklalio'ina
beginniii at independence Kansas
and going to the Gulf of Mexico. The
hearings that were held by these' men
in Independence liartlesvllle Tulsa
Oklahoma City Ardmore and other
points were behind dosed doors and
no official report lias ever been made
public or to congress as to what was
developed by the hearings. The mat-
ters that came' to the attention of the
commission were promptly made
known at the time through oilier chan-
nels however and it became appar-
ent before the hearings bad progress-
ed very far that the demand for a fed-
eral pipe line had its reason more in
the needs of the oil producers than in
the necessities of the government as
represented by the navy department.
It early became apparent that Mr.
Sample was not enthused over the
plan us an economic measure and that
Lieutenant Richardson was not in fa-
vor of it as a fuel supply precaution
for the navy. Mr. Sells while reticent
as to his views seems to be an advo-
cate of the practicability of the plan.
Estimates of Cost of Line.
The investigation of the plaji went
so far as to include estimates as to
the size and cost of the line and Its
capacity. It was figured that a line to
be built from the mid-continent field
via Healdton to the Gulf with a ca
pacity of 20000 barrels a day would
cost $9500000. The refinery that
was to be placed at the coast would
have cost $l00000u. The refinery part
of the program was a factor that
caused discussion and some protest.
Independent producers who were unit
ed for the pipe line were not of one
mind as to the refinery.
Oklahoma politicians took up the
propaganda for the federal pipe line
and several of them made some po
litical capital out of it.

The General Says:
i sftrmiTjl
'There are some very good
reasons why my business is
bigger each year than it
was the year before."
Some years ago asphalt roofing was
solel nt high prices because the volume
was small and iacilities were limited.
When the General entered the field he
broke up the high price combine by
taking advantage of oil possible manu-
facturing economies thereby reducing
production costs to the minimum and
at the same time making a roofing of
unexcelled quality.
Eventually the Ceneral became recog-
nized as the leader of the entire field
and today the best known and largest
used brand in the world is
Certainteed
Roofing
The General's big success brought about
an attempt by others to imitate his poli-
cies and prie-es but they didn't have the
General's wonderful facilities nor his
superior equipment nor his big organi-
zation nnd it was an economic impos-
sibility for them to equal the Generol's
quality and price. Consequently with
the reduction in price there was a big
reduction in quality and these lower
quality roofings began to be sold under
labels that hud formerly been used on
better goods.
Today tho market Is flooded with low quality
rmthiius made lo sell at rh-ap price without
regard to the service they will give.
When you roof your building with Certain -fee?
you have n responsible manufacturer's guaniii.
