Sentinel is paying 27c for oats.
That's higher than any other
town around here. Sentinel is
paying86^ for wheat. Cordell
is paying 80^, Hobart is paying
80. Sentinel's weigher, J. W.
Latham, has weighed twenty-
four cars of wheat. Milten-
berger's elevator has bought five
cars. The wheat market is only
started. Is it any wonder Sen-
tinel gets the grain?
No, for she pays the highest
price.
Keep on bringing your grain to
Sentinel and get the high price.
M. J. Long, for the Texas-Okla-
homa grain Co., has bought al-
ready fourteen cars of wheat.
Geo. L. Bishop, the rustling
farmer and otherwise good citi-
zen who is known far and near,
was in town Saturday in attend-
ance upon the stockmen's meet-
ing. He's the man who has the
fine road out by his farm. He
has demonstrated with the plow
and the King drag (a machine
that will cost one hour's work
and a dollar's worth of material)
that bad roads may be almost
perfected. He has made a fine
piece of road and all who have
driven over it say so. He says a
gentleman south of him is work-
ing on his part of the road with
the drag and that soon the road
will be completed to Rocky. Mr.
Bishop said Saturday that up
to that date he had had all the
rain he needed.
Hobart Celebrates.
Hobart put on a Fourth of July
celebration. It was a nice affair,
we learn, and many people went
from this place. Auto races, fire
works and a general good time
was the result.
Farms for Sale.
My three farms 2 miles east of
Sentinel, also my fine farm just
south of Sentinel. Terms, small

A Nice Barber Shop.
While down on West Main
street one day this week we
dropped into the barber shop of
D. M. Alexander. The place
has been thoroughly renovated
and now presents quite a nice
appearance indeed. You can get
an excellent bath there on short
notice and you can also get the
best of shaves, shampoos, hair
cuts and any other work done in
a first class shape.
Call at the shop and be con-
vinced that these are facts.
They guarantee all their work
and will treat you square every
time.

Saturday Night. July 9, at the
City Hall, Sentinel.
Organization is the medium
upon which the political party
must largely rely in getting the
information to the voter. We
therefore hope to perfect an or-
ganization that will reach every
voter in this precinct, and that
will insure democratic success at
the August 2nd primary. To
that end a democratic mass meet-
ing is called at the city hall in
Sentinel Saturday night of this
week-July 9.
The suffrage amendment is to
be voted on at this primary. It
should be, and will be, adopted if
every democrat understands
what it means to the state, and
that it does not affect the right
of any white man or Indian citi
zen to vote.
W. W. Hornbeck,
Precinct Committeeman.
swear that the above statement
is true to the best of my know-
ledge and belief, so help me God.

R. W. Hulett, who was chosen
to represent this part of the
county, will go to Cordell and
there join a party on the morning
of the 13th for Mangum. They
go to inspect the court house at
Mangum with a view to getting
data as concerns the building of
the court house at Cordell. This
trip of the commissioners and
the special commissioners does
not cost the county anything, as
the trip is paid for by the Com-
mercial Club of Cordell, and the
Commercial Club at Mangum en-
tertains the party while in that
city.
The City Well.
The city well is now down to
twenty-five feet. It is sixteen
feet across. Good streams of
water have been struck.

Meeting Announced.
The Washita County Farmers
Institute is called to meet at Cor-
dell on Wednesday the 13th day
of .July. Everybody is cordially
invited to attend and enlist as
actual members of same.
At this meeting the county
demonstration farm will be lo-
cated for another year. Mr.
Bishop has charge of the farm
this year and the success he has
attained will astonish the natives
and if you are a little skeptical
just go over and see for your-
self. You will also see his per-
fect road made with a plow and
the King Road Drag. The people
only need information on this
line to work a wonderful im-
provement, and the Institute is
the place to get it. Only paid
up members are entitled to vote
the location of the demonstration
farm or any other question.
The fee is fifty cents and we
hope to increase our member-
ship, as we wish to secure a large
fund to distribute as premiums
at the county exhibit next fall.
This exhibit may be moved to
any town in the county by a
majority vote of the paid up
members. So rustle for member-
ships. N. T. McAlister,
Sec. Washita County Farmer's
Institute.

Baseball Gossip.
The Sentinel team is not doing
any playing now as most of the
boys are farmers and are busy
threshing. Soon they will be
done threshing and then they
will take up the game. It may
be two or even three weeks, but
the boys are in for the game and
they want games with Thomas,
Clinton, Hobart, Cordell, Lone
Wolf, Cockleburr Flats, Altus,
Blair and Weatherford. All these
towns, except Weatherford, have
signified their willingness to play
our team and our team wants to
take them on. Just give us a
little time, please.

into Ogden, Utah, two men at-

The men cursed the negro and

negro started but was pulled
back. Then the two men tried
