MANY CONVERTS
' Tulsa., OkUu, July 16,-With 404
wcrking officers and committee
members, with formal branch or*
nanizations in thirty Oklahoma
counties and with informal but en
thusiastic committees in forty-six
other counties of the state who are
working toward permanent organi-
zations, the affairs of the Oklaho-
ma Farm Congress association are
in pretty good shape just now.
Organized April 24 at the Okla-
homa Development conference at
Tulaa, the new asaociation has for
its purpose the improvement facili-
ties arid the increase of farm pro-
duction. As a means to these enda
every county in Oklahoma is being
encouraged to take part in the In*
ternational Dry Farming Congress
and exposition in Tulsa next Oc-
tober and more than fifty coun-
ties are definitely planning ex-
hibits.
"It is an axiom in the teaching of
agriculture," said President J. F
Darby of the association recently,
' that the average farmer, like the
average city man, is willing to learn
but dislikes to be taught. He
hates to be told how to do things,
but he is entirely willing to learn
for himself through observation of
the other fellow's method.
"For that reason I believe that
the International Congress and ex-
position at Tulsa will result in last-
ing good to the farmers of Okla-
homa. There will be on display
in this -city samples of good crops
from every continent on the globe,
as well as from many American
states and provinces. Two-thirds
of the counties of Oklahoma will
have exhibits of their products.
Fvery exhibit shown will have its
own lesson to tell the farmers who
attend how a good crop was pro
duced and how they can go home
to their own farms and increase
their own yield likewise.
Not only that, but the world-
wide competitions themselves are
an inducement to grow good crops
for it is only the best crops which
can hope to win a prize for which
the farmers of many states are com-
peting.
'There are still other reasons
why Oklahoma fanners should get
into tjhe game at Tulsa. Every
county or individual exhibit which
is entered will help to show the
world what Oklahoma can do; and
this point is important when it is
remembered that delegates will
visit Tulsa from thirty nations and
twenty states next October. This
will be the best chance ever of-
fered to Oklahoma to show her
agricultural resources to people
from all over the world and to im-
press the thousands of visiting
farmers from Kansas, Missouri and
other states to the north and east
of the desirability of farm life in
this state. We are hoping to have
every county in Oklahoma well rep-
resented at Tulsa this fall."

SCOTT FERRIS SUES FRISCO
La6t Friday, Scott Ferris filed a
suit in the district court of Swan-
son county, asking $5,000 damages
from the St. Louis and San Fran-
cisco railroad comoany for Injur-
ies received July 20. 1912, at Sny-

and payable January 1st. 1912 and point community was in Altus S't-
January 1st. 1913 after date re- urdav trading.
A good solid community cannot
be built without patronizing home
institutions. This feature of cora-
iviunity building requires an appre-
ciation of the fact that for all cit-
izens to cultivate the habit of buy-
ing at home is the highest form
of reciprocity. A large percent-
age of buying away from home is
an imaginary gain, and the re-
maining percentage of away from
home buying, with few exceptions,
where the article desired, cannot
be bought locally, is a violation of
the principles of reciprocity. We
forget al ltoo frequently what the
word "community" really means.
A community is nothing more or
less than the total or aggregate
of a multitude of commercial re-
lationships. If the principle of
reciprocity is practiced throughout
in a high degree, the result is a.
healthy commercial tone. Not only
this, but where all the citizens erf
a given community reciprocate and
thereby help all other citisens to
conduct their institutions on a
plane Of the best financial success.
;a much bitter service on the part
i of all the institutions to the entire
public is made possible. A good
community is the result.
On the other hand enough busi-
ness may be sent oat of town and
takdfci ajftray from all classes of
home establishments, to reduce the
majority of the commercial insti-
tutions to the sheer necessity of
rendering iust ordinary service, to
get by and make a living profit.
Think this over. Mr. Citizen. Un-
der the oresent temporarily de-
pressed conditions in Oklahoma,
home patronage more than ever be-
lt is needed in our church life. If
a church is your preference, join
it soul and body and stay with it.
Whenever its doors open be there
to take your place and do your
part in making it a success.
Special mention should be made
of our Wednesday night prayer
meetings. The interest and attend-
ance is steadilv growing. New
methods are being used and God
owns and blesses each service. Let i
us r.ppeal to the membership to
come to this delightful service |
