Abe Muikev. the noted evange-
list who has been conducting a big
meeting at Quanah; took occasion
in one of his sermons to score the
people for begging money from lo-
cal merchants for church purposes
and sending away for dry goods,
groceries and hardware to Dallas,
Fort Worth, Kansas City and Chi-
cago. He scored quite a hit and
gave his hearers something whole
Home to think about along those
lines.
Kingfisher is to have achautau-
qua association. The town has one
of the finest parks in Oklahoma and
the enterprise will doubtless be a
grand success. By the way, this
matter of establishing chautauqua
associations in Oklahoma is a sub-
ject that our neighboring town of
Granite might well consider.
Where could a lovlier place be found
than one ot the mountain groves
near Granite. There will be an
association in Southwest Oklano-
ma in the near future and Granite
can get it by going after it now. It
is an excellent thing for a town as
it brings a desirable class of people.
The World's Fair Commission-
ers are making a special effort to
secure an exhibition of Oklahoma
wheat that will eclipse anything
from the states. At least a thous-
and samples of wheat from the ter-
ritory are desired. Any farmer
who has noteworthy grain from the
standpoint of yield or weight is
urged to save four or five quarts,
also samples of fruits, all sorts of
field crops and grasses will be glad-
ly received. E. E. McCollister, of
Mangum, is gathering samples for
the world's fair exhibit and J. O.
McCollister, of Mangum, is collect-
ing samples for the traveling car
exhibit that is soon to be started
out. Greer county should be well
represented in both exhibits.
Ir the Rock Island railroad com-
pany persists in discontinuing one-
half of the passenger train service
on tbe Mangum branch, the people
of Maugum and Greer county
should with one accord refuse to
patronize the road one dollar s
worth until the service is re-estab
lished. But of course that could
not be done. Mangum has gone
through the old freighter days, but
could not now go h«ck to them. i*old on tbe market.

A ORE AT ALFALFA CROP.
Mr. (tucker. Living on Elm, Will Re-
alise About $150 From Two
About Acrm of Alfalfa.
Mr. Rucker, living three miles
north of Mangum, has in about
two acres of alfalfa on his farm.
The first cutting yielded one hun-
dred bales, the which he sold at
fifty cents per bale, making a total
of $50. The second cutting he got
eighty-one bales which he sold for
sixty-five cents per bale, making |
it bring him $52-65- The third,
cutting he secured fifty-two bales
which has not yet been disposed of.
He will get the fourth cutting.
Calculate the third cutting at fifty
cents per bale and it will bring |
$26. This, together with the first;
cuttings, makes a total of $128.65.
The fourth cutting is yet to be
made and its value cannot be spec-
ulated upon with any certainty, but
it is safe to predict that it will
swell the total to $150. This will
be realized off of about two acres
of land and that without any cul-
tivation to speak of.
