you use that apace to set forth
church going advantages, as col.

correct effect and you can depend

He will be in Altus this week. Jen-

tion to speak in every county in the
state and we presume he will be here
later on. Reports from the towns he
visits indicate that he stirs up the
animals as they have never been
•tirred before. At Watonga he went
into an Indifferent town, but when
he got through speaking and had
left for another place the democrata
met that evening and organized a
Jennings club of 60 members. The

FARMERS' CONGRESS A SUCCESS
i Continued from Page 1)
The next morning at the opening
of the congress .Mr. Stevens of Ty-
rone gave a talk on his silo experi-
ence which was much appreciated. ^
The questions and answers which
followed his talk evidenced the In-
terest manifested.
■Supt. Geo. K. Helder, of the Hays
City experimental college then gave
an excellent address on "Summer
Fallowing for Fall Wheat and Spring
Crops." Mr. Helder gave the con
;ress dozens of valuable pointers.
He Is a man of considerable experi-
ence as his talks plainly showed. He
had facts from demonstrations o!
practically every kind you wanted to
know and didn't "understand" or
"had heard" about certain things
He is a man who knows wh^t he Is
talking about and with the valuable
experience he has along agricultural
lines it should be attended to that
he is gotten out to more such gather-
ings, for he can spread more good
inforiuatiou worth while to farmers
than they can read in weeks. The
state of Kansas couldn't help her
farmers more than to keep a man
like Mr. Helder out a considerable
portion of the time giving farmers
the benefits of his experiments at
Hays City. His coming was worth all
the expense the congress was to the
town of Guymon. He is another on?
we hope to have with us often and
one in which no similar gathering
will err by giving him a good place
on the program.
W. D. Griggs gave a splendid ad-
dress on "Moisture Conservation.'
Mr. Griggs is superintendent of the
Texas experimental college at Dal-
hart, and is a man well up on his
work. His talks will be beneficial
to farmers of any commuuity. The
Dalhart experiments showed among
other things that milo is a better
crop here than Kafir by several bush-
els per acre.
John F. Ross of Amarillo gave a
good address on the relative values
of sorghums for feed crops. Others
gave good talks, and Saturday aft-
ernoon wound up a feast of good
things for those who came looking
for something good.
It Is Impossible to fully cover th*
congress and give all the good hand-
ed out by the speakers who were
authority on matters on which they
spoke. We cannot even give a part
of the many valuable good points
they brought out. But just the same
the farmers who failed to come
missed all the Herald felt beforehand
that they would. Guymon did her-
self proud In entertaining the vis-
itors. Friday night a number ot
business men banqueted the speakers
at the Pike hotel and a few hours
were pleasantly passed.
Much of the success of the con
gress Is due to the untiring work of
President Black, who conceived the
idea of the congress and who worked
diligently for its success. It may
be said for him that he instituted
in the congress one of the best moves
that has been started for the de-
velopment of the Bouthwest. Then
men like Frank Collins, R. B
Qulnu, Dr. Hayes, Harry Clark,
R. Nichols, and In fact many others,
deserve much praise for their untir-
ing work to make the congress a big
success. On page two you will find
the resolutions adopted by the con-
vention, together with the resolu-
tions of permanent organization.
