STRAWBERRY CULTURE
ADVOCATED BY RINGER
Sow Is the time to prepare the
XTOUnd for the planting of strawber-
C. E. Ringer oneu of Ardmore's
era of this berry states.
The old Idea so prevalent at one
that plants must be covered with
w or hay is a mistake Mr Ring
er aays and while some special care
pa required to get the desired results
prom the plants the care of them is
mo more Intricate than the care of
lother tender plants.
Plants put out now will geta good
boot growth and will bear fruit this
season.
Mr. Ringer gives some very interest
ing facts concerning the success he
has had with the growth of the straw
berry. He says that on a very small
patch of ground 39 by 15 feet he fur
nished bis table with berries three
tiroes a day throughout the season
in ..addition to which he sold $44
worth of the berries besides now he
has sold something more than 6000
plants which bring fl per 100.
"The Strawberry is one of the most
delicious and wholesome of fruits.
Any one with the inclination can from
two rows 25 feet long produce enough
to furnish their family und have some-
thing to sell also."

WANTED Two silk hats two frock

Leon Juycox and W. G. Abner Joint
presidents and owners Hamraondsport
and Bath railroad.
These two want ads haven't appear-
ed in any paper yet but they set forth
the needs of Conductor Jaycox and
Station Agent Abner.
For overnight the two railway em-
ployes have become sole owners offi-
cials directors and managers of a
railway
It's only nine miles long but it's a
real honest-to-goodness railway with
stations and freighthouses and tracks
and engines and everything.
It used to be a profitable branch of
the Erie. That was when Bath and
Hammondsport were champagne 'pro-
ducing centers.
But with the coming of Volstead
traffic slumped. Freight ran only once
a day. Passenger trains thrice weekly.
Then the Erie decided to abandon
the line.
But up stepped Jaycox and Abner.
"We'll lease it" they said. "We know
local conditions and we can make It
pay."
"It's a go" said the Erie chiefs.
So Jaycox and Abner climbed Into
the saddle.
They've put on a daily passenger
train.
And they say they're going to make
their fortunes.

years and never hesitate to reeom

YOUNG GIANT WILL
BE ADDED TO PEP
TEAM THIS SEASON
Machinery for the molding of the
Ardmore 1922 team of the TO league
is now under way with Jimmy Ma-
loney "grand old man of South-
west baseball" at the helm. Muloney
who Is the newly elected manager of
the Peps arrived here Sunday and
Immediately began to compose his
plans for the coming season.
"Ardmore is going to have a team
this season" he said "of which not
only the league but the city Is
going to be proud."
Maloney believes In clean sports
manship in every sense of the word
and with this aim In view intends to
collect a nine which will be composed
entirely of clean-cut men. Just who
the personnel of the 1922 Peps will be
has not yet been definitely determined
but most of the lads who were here
last year will again be present to
form the nucleus to which will be
added some high calibre talent which
Moloney Is now negotiating to obtain.
Among these are expected to be
Wlnterburn a lefthander of Dallas
Texas who lust season shone In oma
teur ball and Lefty Wilson of Bloom
field. Mo. who gained quite a repu
tutlon during the past season In nma
teur circles. Wilson's 1921 record In
eluded 18 victories and three losses.
He is a glunt in stature standing
( feet i Inches In height and weighs
195 pounds. He is only 20 years old.
An Interesting feature of the 1922
season here will be the dobut of
Bugs Toung best all-round player
in the 1921 T-O league who Intends
to try out us pitcher. Bugs made u
good --showing la the twirling line
last year when he was rushed In nt
most crjtlcul moments to relieve tot-
tering moundsmen and In the ma-
jority of cases succeeded in pulling
the Peps out of a hole and Into a
victory. The work of Young last sea-
son wus regarded as most remarkable
by exports who watched his play.
Young played every position on tho
team and In all of them was a top-notcher.
Logsdon Will Hear
Motion For Trial
(Continued from Page One)
fore next Monday when the ouster
case is to be heard.
Judge Champion said he could not
see a long trial In which many wit
nesses would be examined and that
time must be had in order to serve
processes.
Defendant Has No Preference
Attorney Brown said the Ptate was
not required to go to trial in the
January term of court that the de-
fendant had no rights superior to thi
rights of other defendants the court
that comes to hear the ouster proceed
lngs will know when to set the case.
It was argued by Mr. Brown that
the January term of court according
to law opened tho first Monday in
January and Judge Champion held
that the January term proper did
not open until January 1G. This is
important for the reason that the
law provides that the case in ouster
proceedings shall be tried at the next
term of court following the filing of
the proceedings. However Mr. Brown
stated clearly that there was no ef
fort being made to postpone the case
that as far as he was concerned he
would liko to try It next day but
the people have some rights In tho
case they will never be satisfied ana
the trouble here will never be cleared
up until the people know that there
has been a fair and impartial trial
Mr. Brown stated that the trial was
brought under a special law that con
fers all power upon the Attorney Gen-
eral. He said this court is not the
proper court to set the case and thai
he did not care to state the reason
why just at this time.
Oldfiekl' Instructions Cited
J. B. Champion stated that Judge
Oldfield was not assigned to Ardmore
to hear the ouster case against Sher
iff Garrett. That the order of the
Chief Justice assigning Judge Oldfield
here stated that he should convene
court here January 17 and that he
should remain here one week and
that the Garrett ouster proceedings
are set for the 16th. From the re'
marks made at this time It seemed
that the attorneys had not read
the order under which Judge Oldfield
was assigned here and it was Just
being taken for granted that Judge
Oldfiold would preside in the case.
Mr. Champion stated that no Judge
would be assigned here until Judge
Champion arid Judge Logsdon were
both disqualified and that at this
time neither one of them Is disquall
fled.
Russell Brown was persistent In his
contention Unit the court not set
the case for hearing. "If It had been
thought there was a chance for this
application to be before the court
this morning' he said "there would
have been proceedings filed in the
Supreme Court. The object of this
hearing Li to head off suspension
Judge Champion said the Supreme
Court wus not this court that this
court hud Its duUes to perform that
no effort was being made to rush
the case and that all this newspaper
talk about taking Uie bull by the
horns wus buuk.
Guy Slgler said he would Berve
notice on Russell Brown In open
court that they (Garrett's attorneys)
would not bo ready to try the ouster
proceedings uoJl the Attorney General
is ready to go to trial In the final
trial.
Following a conference of Sheriff
Garrett's attorneys the court passed
the case until 1:30 this afternoon.

INVALID

New Hearing is Granted
Million Dollar Oil Suit
(Continued from P-ipre One)
the opinion the court overlooked por
tions of the record which were decis
ive of this controversy and further
overlooked material and controlling
decisions of the court und others and
that the opinion was in conflict with
decisions to which the attention of the
court had formerly been called.
Attention of the supreme court was
called in Franklin's petition to the
rule relative to the setting aside of
Judgment of the trial court. (It will
be rememl)ered that the case had been
tried In Carter county courts prior to
Its trial in the supremo i.ourt and that
tho local court had decided In Frank
lln's favor). In his petition Franklin
stated that the rule is well settled
that in an equitable action tho Judg
ment of tho trial court will not be set
aside unless It Is clearly nsralnst the
weight of evidence and insisted that
such was not the case In tlif matter
tried before the court and further in
sisted that the trial court's findings
were abundantly supported by the
testimony. Reference was made in
the petition lo material portions of the
evidence which stated Franklin clear
ly established toy a preponderance
thereof authority vjileh the affont had
to sell the option and not simp to
find a purchaser for it.
No Written Authority Required
Franklin further maintained in his
petition that with reference to the
brief filed in support of the petition
for rehearing it Is clearly established
that the authority of an agent such as
created in the man with whom Frank'
lln dealt is not required by any sec
tion of the statute of frauds of Okla
homa to be In writing.
Optional Leases
It was further alleged In the
petition that the court had overlooked
the vital distinction between "or" ond
"unless" leases as established by de
cisions of the Oklahoma court and in
this connection the defendant in error
further alleged that the "unless" lease
as distinguished from the "or" lease
has been adjudged in a class to itself
by a long line of decisions of the court
and decisions of the Federal court for
the eastern district of Oklahoma and
has by reason of such decisions be.
come a rule of property in this state
By a long lino of decisions of the
court further stated Franklin begin
ning shortly after statehood and at
a time when the oil Industry of the
state was in Its Infancy an "unices'
lease has been defined as an option.
The defendant in error further slat
cd that an option vests no title In the
property unUl tho option Is exercised
meaning In case of an "unless" lease

terms of the lease and further showed
