RAY OF LIGHT IN DARKNESS
Conscienceless Hubby H|d Thought of
Great Scheme to Deceive His
Trusting Wife.
It was a bitter hot day In Octember.
.lamps X. Oylekan was worried. He
took several stjps to and approximate-
ly the same number of stops fro. He
saw at once, this was the wrong course.
Ue begun to add the remainder and
Hubtract It from the quotient. That
didn't work, too, so he bethought him
to try another way.
He doubled up his fist and laid It
down where It would be handy if he
needed It. Suddenly he looked for his
list and saw it was gone, and In its
l>lace was nothing but a hand. He put
the liand in his pocket, and In doing so
found that the hole he had carefully
placed In Ills pocket in the morning
was still there. But he found some-
thing else that gave him a start. His
face went pale. "Plague take It!" he
gnarled.
On second thought his face bright-
ened and he slapped his thigh, "Jove!"
he ecstusied. "This letter my wife
gave uie two weeks ago to mall, ask-
ing her mother to come. I'll hold It
and mail it on Its first birthday. She'll
never notice the year on the postmark.
How perfectly stupid of itie to forget
'ti" Tljen he winked at himself.

STATEROUSE BREVITIES
Cotton Crop Suffers Much.
Cotton has suffered more than any
other crop In Oklahoma as a result
of the prolonged dry spell, according
to figures presented In the monthly
crop summary for August issued by
the state board of agriculture.
Thesa figures show the present
growing condition of cotton to be only
32 per cent as against 70 par cent on
the ssme data a year ago. A month
ago the growing condition of cotton
was reported at 75 per ceat, wtych
means a failing off of 43 per ceat dur-
ing the month. It Is estimated that
this year's eotton crop will amount; to
only approximately 60 per cent of last
year's crop.
The recent rains havs Improved ths
outlook In Oklahoma, hut cotton oon
tlnues In generally poor condition la
that state on account a.* nrevlOui
drouth.
Corn has also suffered In proportion
to cotton and this year's corn yield. It
Is expected, will fall below that ol
1911, which was the worst corn yeai
In the state's history. In the south
west part of the state, where ths
drouth 1b the most severe, the cora
crop has been an slmost total failure

Before the flock goes Into winter
quart era every mehsure should be
taken by the poultry keeper to Insure
the health of the birds, according to-
the United Statea department of agri-
culture. Only healthy fowls eaa be
expected to produce eggs In winter.
Well developed pallets and young
hens should ha kept for the winter
laying flock, of course; bat no matter
how well such birds are fed. If they
are annoyed by Uce and mites or
weakened by disease, they will not be
profitable.
Fowls are subject to a considerable
number of diseases, some of which
spread rapidly through the flock and
cause a high mortality. They* amy
also bh Infested by various kinds of
parasites, some of which live on the
surface of the body and others In the1
crops, stomach, or Intestines. These
parasites are Injurious because they
take a part of the nourishment which
should be used by the bird to pot on
flesh or to produce eggs, and also be-
cause by their movements and their
biting they cause Irritation and in-
flammation of the parts which they
attack. Germs and parasites which
cause, disease should be kept oat of
the flock by suitable preventive am
area, because disease may be avoided
much more easily aad cheaply thaajt
can be cored. The aim la studying
