Wheat and Rye Offer Relief
Stop right now picking low-price cot-
ton long enough to sow some wheat and
rye before it is too late This is ideal
seeding weather If you need the money
to buy seed and you are permanently lo-
cated for next year we shall be pleased
to assist you in securing them as we are
anxious to see our customers cut down
their feeding expenses
That it was big money to the farmers
who sowed wheat and rye on clean cot-
ton land last fait can be better explained
by one of our progressive an prosperous
farmer customers in the person of Mr T
R Davidson of Corum Mr Davidson
sowed wheat last fall between the cotton
rows about the First of November This
manner did not appeal to him at the time
as did that of sowing on new plowed
land but when the harvesting of the
grain came he was astonished at the
fact of the wheat sowed on the cotton
land making 25 bushels to the acre while
the plowed land made oniy a little more
than 12 bushels to the acre
Is not this the best of evidence that it
pays to diversify your crops? Let us as-
sist' you aiong conservative lines to at-
tain this end - -

Call Meeting
As chairman of your Committee
appointed by the Cotton Protect-
ive Association of Comanche I
hereby call a meeting of Farmers
and Citizens generally to meet
at 2:30 o’clock Saturday Octob-
er 25th 1914
The purpose of this meeting
will be principally to discussjhe
advisability of a Canning Facto-
ry at Comanche Okla Not a
highly-prompted supposed divi-
dend paying blowout such as has
so often proven disastrous but
purely on a conservative basis to
enable us to get away from cot-ton-growing
Much of the farm-
ing lands of this comunity being
especially adapted for growing
truck melons pumpkins sorgh-
um syrup etc
It has been suggested to me
that it is up to us to use the op-
portunities thus placed at our
door
Allow me to suggest further
that this is everybodys business
and we must all sink or swim to-
gether Respectfully
