Crop Conditions
Wheat is still ahead of the average
in condition ‘in the northwest es-j
pecially the growth is as good as
could be expected it anything it is
too rank Some orange leaf rust has
appeared there The cool weather
has favored a re-infestation of green-
bugs in several counties reports to
this effect have come from Garvin
Cotton Grady and Stechens counties
Oats are backward and la cases
pale and thin Some greenbuf dam-
age is reported from Stephens Cot-
ton and Canadian counties
Barley and rye have felt the effects
of the wet soil conditions
Corn on upland farms seems to be
doing better than in the bottoms
Planting has been practically com-
pleted in many counties but in oth-
ers much replanting is still being
done The growth of the crop has
been very slow There Is some com-
plaint of damage by cut-worms
Cotton planting has been delayed
by the cold and wet and has not yet
become general The poor start made
by corn may have an effect upon the
acreage of cotton and more may be
planted than might otherwise have
been expected
Potatoes are late and note up to
their usual condition at this time of
the year !
Alfalfa is hardly one-half of normal
and remains several weeks late Where
the frozen and aphid-sapped growth
was dipped splendid new growth has
started There are a few cases of
marketing of new alfalfa I
The broom corn acreage may show
an increase due to the planting of
small fields by new growers
There is an active demand for pea-
nut kafir Sudan millet and water-
melon seed Promising a greater di-
versification than usual
The stock of tenant farmers In cot-
ton counties is not in the best of con-
dition probably due to lack of means
to provide sufficient feed Rats are
taking a large toll of small chickens
Pastures were hurt by the late freeze
Labor is plentiful It is expected
that the wool crop will be stored at'
home and pooled when market condi-
tions warrant many will convert their
clips into blankets and mattresses

A CHANGE OF HEART

Wny shouldn’t you ? If you were
sick you would call a doctor— a good
one If you were making a will you
would call a lawyer a capable one
If you were transporting freight
from one point to another you’d
use an auto truck or a railroad
Why then when you are selecting
banking connection shouldn’t you
choose the best the most capable
the most prompt and efficient one ?

Oklahoma City April 28 — Dis
cussing the necessity for a Special
Session of the Legislature Geo B
Schwabe Speaker of the House is
quoted as having said at a meeting of
the Nowata Rotary Club that "he
I would do his duty as Speaker fear-
' lessly with regard to the welfare of
1 the State when the Legislature con-
' vened and wanted no part in any pri
! vate agreement to bind the actions of
his associates in the House”
Oh What a change of heart If he
only could have thought of that Just
a few weeks sooner what 'a saving he
could have made to the taxpayers of
the State It will be remembered that
only a few weeks ago by the final ad-
journment of the House with one
1 stroke of the gavel together with his
j Republican associates the Speaker
laid waste over 18000000 of the
! public funds being the cost of the
entire session of the Legislature This
sum was a total loss for the reason
that the Speaker was able to force
the adjournment before any of the es
sential business was finished If!
Schwabe and his Republican associates
had been willing to remain In session
three hours longer the necessity for
! Special Session could have been
1 avoided
I There was excellent ground for
j belief that a private agreement exist-
ed between Schwabe and his asso-
ciates on one hand and the Republican
bosses on the other for as early as
January during the recent session it
was currently reported and threats
were made that unless the Senate
would pass the Republican election
law the House would not pass the nec-
essary appropriation bills for the sup-
port of the State institutions includ-
ing insane asvlums at Norman Vinita
and Ft Supply State orphan homes
old soldiers homes care of the disabled-
World War service men and
i women all educational and penal in-
: stitutions as well as the general state
government
I Oklahoma has election laws thor-
oughly workable and well understood
by the electorate which provide bv-
rartisan boards beginning with the:
State down to and in every precinct
The oreration and administration of
these laws have been eminently satis
factory to all who are satisfied with
honest elections and others are en-
titled to no consideration The Re-
publicans were able to carry the State
in the last election and now have a
large majoritv of fhe members of the
House notwithstanding the State is
conceded to be Democratic over-
whelmingly There has been little
complaint In recent vears concerning
the conduct of elections in Okhhomi
and certainly none well founded Tak-
ing this vie of the matter the Sen-
ate defeated this Republican election
hw and the Speaker and his associates
kept their agreement with the biases
and refused to pass the appreciation
w bills In the House bv their hasty un
53wwE£a announced adjournment
