ing member of the Oklahoma house of
representatives from Choctaw county,
was acquitted here by a federal court
jury of the charge that be introduced

Earlier in the day, Robert K. War-
ren. prosecuting attorney and repre-
sentative-elect from Choctaw county,
and Wright Bonford, a Hugo banker,
were found guilty by a federal jury on
a similar charge.
Arrest of Warren, Bonford, Hunter
and Bohannon, occurred two years
ago. William R. Houston Intercepted

as, ten miles south of Hugo. The two
men were traveling in an automobile

Hugo from Texas. When Hunter
heard of the arrest be went before a
United States commissioner and claim-
ed the whisky. He said that be had
given Bohannon money with which to
purchase the liquor and intended it
for his own use.

the democratic nomination for repre-
sentative and was elected to the legis-
lature November 7.

and arrests will lead to startling rev-
elations of the liquor traffic in the

months working on this case at the
request of Enloe and D. H. Linebaugh,

stroyed two blocks of business build-
ings here, the loaa, including furniture

It is said, was due to a faulty "air and
gas mixer."

Ada —That $1,000,000 worth of cot
ton will be sold here this season now
appears probable. More than 6,600
bales have already been marketed
here. ThiB does not Include the lint-
ers.Vhich will amount to perhaps 300
or 400 bales.
The first of the crop sold for about
$95 a bale. Thia increased before
much had been soia to imo h bale,
and all the late crop has been sel ing
anywhere from $120 to $140. The
entire crop will average much in ex-
cesa of $100 to the bale. That means
that the crop marketed at Ada will
not fall far short of $1,000,000.
Stonewall, Roff, Francis, Allen and
the other smaller markets have re-
ceived about twice as much as Ada.
Pontotoc county, therefore, will re-
ceive at least $2,500,000 for its cotton
crop.
Many Turkeys Sold.
! Norman.—More than 2,500 pounds of
turkeys were sold in Norman at 20
rents a pound. Because of market
; conditions at Norman, turkeys are
marketed here from the neighborhooda
of Blanchard and Noble, according to
a local dealer, who himaelf bought
1.750 pounds of turkeva alon.' Most
of the birds are shipped to Oklahoma
City, although some have been ahipped
to northern marketa. One farmer who
reporta sales to the amount of $200
for this season has found turkey rais-
ing an important source of income.

Home-Ground Flour and Cereals.
Grinding wheat to make flour may
be done at home as easily as the grind-
ing of coffee. And thus n family may
have whole wheat flour, freshly ground,
a thing that Is usually difficult to ob-
tain. The New York Medical Journal
advises Its readers to buy their wheat
from seedsmen rather than from gro-
cers or feed stores because It wllll be
cheaper and more efflclenL
The grinder can be used also for
cracking wheat, corn, barley, oats,
rye and other grains for use as break-
fast cereals. And the cereals will need
