Apropos the matter of cutting,
down the expense of state govern-
ment, it seems more and more ap-
parent to us that a good big saving
could be made by reducing the num-
ber of representatives to the state
legislature. Take the case of Pitts-;
burg county, for example: We have
four representatives to pay—one in
the senate and three in the house,
when two to say the least, would be
ample to look after the interests of
Pittsburg county. The salaries of
the four representatives for sixty
days at $6 per, represents an ex-
penditure of $1440. Suppose we were
to cut this in half, there would be a
saving to the tax payers of 720 in
salaries alone for just one county.
This of course does not take into
account other legitimate and neces-
sary expenses such as railroad fare,
stamps, stationery, a stenographer,
etc., which all costs money, and which
added to the salary account would
very materially swell this total. We
know it would not be possible to
make a corresponding reduction in
every county in the state, befause
some of the counties are not entitled
to as many representatives in the leg-
islature as Pittsburg on account of :
population, and hence on these the
cutting knife could not be laid as
deep; but there is no question but ,
that the number of representative®
could be so reduced in the 87 coun-
ties as to amount to a saving to the
tax payers of the state in a sum ap- ,
proximating $50,000 or possibly more,
and that too without depriving any
part of the state of its just repres-
entation in the legislature.
"RULE AGAINST IMPORTED TIN
CANS."
Under this heading the Kansas
City Star credits the Sun with the
following:
Young ladies of Hartshorne with
modern ideas of "efficiency" decid-
{ed to invoke the aid of local boys in
ridding the town lots and alleys of
[tin cui..-. They held a meeting at
which they agreed to give a show
1 ticket to each boy producing "four-
teen old tin cans." The good old
i mothers of the town, with a deeper
J insight into the ways of boys than
! that shown by the young ladies, sug-
• gested that "no cans should be
'brought from outside the city lim-
it-."—Hartshorne fOk.) Sun.
Thia in not exactly what The Sun
-aid. 'out we will let it go anyway,
1 for we are certainly getting some
free advertising, and it is the right
1 kmd too. It has remained for the
Progressive Club to put "Heart" in
Hartshorne.
A1 Jennings is ambitious to be-
come mayor of Oklahoma City, and
it dot- M.-$m like the unkindest cut
■ >f all that the election board has re-
fu-ed to allow him to file. The reas-
')11 for the rejection of the applica-
tion is that the filing was made by
his brother, Frank, and did not state
whether A1 wished to file as a dem-
ocrat nor who was to handle his
muncy. A1 is not on the scene yet
but when he does arrive in Oklahoma
City, it is likely he will go gunning
for the enemy in true Jennings

In an address before the St. Louis
School of Pedagogy, Elbert Hubbard
said:
"They say women should not vote
because they can't go to war as sol-
diers. but long after the earth has
received to her broom the thousands
ki:ied the women have to survive
and clean up the mess."
Harry K. Thaw again comes in for
first page position. Just how they
are going to stick him, a lunatic,
for conspiring to effect his escape
from Matteawan is more than we can
understand. But suppose he estab-
lishes the fact that he was sane—
which no doubt he was, and always
has been—then what?
Is H. B. Teehee, of Tahlaquah.
the new register of the treasury, any-
kin to the well known Minnehaha?
This is one of the Kay See Star's
justly celebrated jokes, fee hee!—
Muskogee Phoenix.
Tee Hee—it is to laugh, but the
salary which attaches to the job. is
not to be sneezed at.
The shame of the thing is not so
much that Krebs allowed children of
all ages to see the Jennings show, as
that it was staged on Sunday.

WHO GETS

There's a question for you to answer for yourself. If
you are putting money in the bank you know they will be
PROVIDED FOR. If you are spending and wasting
every dollar you get. you don't know what will ^become of
then. Who gets the money you earn? If you put into our
bank what you spend or lend foolishly it will protect fhose
children dependent on you.

Chicken* a Luxury, V(|tUklM a Ne-
cessity.
Choosing as between the two any
one will admit that vegetables are
more necessary than chickens. More
tangible results and greater food
value can be obtained by growing a
lot of potatoes and other vegetables
in your own back yard than by try-
ing to raise a few chickens. The
cost of feed for chick.ens. when
bought in small quantities, as poor
people must buy, far exceeds the
values you can get from the chick-
ens. Unless one understands raising
chickens they will realize nothing,
as many times the little chickens get
sick and die; even when full grown
many jjet sick without specific care
and die. Also unless you can have
them well protected in winter and
well fed they will not lay any eggs.
On the other hand, if each family
would plant all the ground they
have and all they can get around
them in a good vegetable garden they
will have something to eat out of it
during all the summer and part of
the winter.
Plant potatoes, lettuce, radishes
and onions now; it is none too early.
As soon as the potatoes are dug, put
in on the same ground either beans,
oeas or a second crop of potatoes or
turnips. Three crops of beans may
he raised on the same ground in one
season in this climate.
Beets do remarkably well and if
more are grown than can be used,
they may be canned for winter use.
Two or three crops of beets may be
grown on the same ground. When
one considers the actual value of
what may be crown on a lot say 100
by 150 feet, with so little expense, it
seems foolish to make any compari-
son of it to the worth of a lot of
chickens that might be grown with
the same outlay of money.
We need a new ordinance con-
cerning chickens running at large.
Consider this question now. Which
is of more value to the greatest
number of people to allow chickens
:o run at large or to keep them in
pens and allow every one to make
gardens and grow flowers.
The greatest good to the greatest
number. Which shall it be. chick-
ens or vegetables?

recommend Doan's Kidney Pills at
every opportunity as the benefit I
got from their use has been lasting.
1 advise anyone afflicted with kidney
complaint to get Doan's KMney Pills
and give them a trial. I was suffer-
j ing from pains in my back and other
