the United States, and is now visit
ing relatives in the Willowvale
community.
W. F. Armstrong was in town
Tuesday from near Aaron. He
made a trip to Hobart last week
and reports the killing of a horse
thief near that place Saturday by
an officer. He resisted arrest and
fired upon the officer without effect
whereupon the officer shot him.
We may look for an increase in

statement will keep our mouth
dripping water until we pay his
patch a visit.

cently threshed a forty-acre wheat

Sixteen head of E. J. Wall's fine
cattle strayed into Chas. Rodgers'
sorghum field yesterday evening
and eight of them died. Among
them were two registered Here-
fords, which had cost their owner
$250 a piece. Besides the Wall
cattle one cow of Mr. Meade's was
found dead. Regulator, one of the
finest bulls in this country, had also
been in the sorghum patch but was
discovered in time and driven out.
Mr. Walls says some of the dead
cattle looked like they had been
killed by lightning. One was upon
her knees, the eyes popping out.

Miss Daisy Blake, who is an em-
ploye in the Star office at Mangum,

route to her home in Clarendon,
Texas. She will return to her

Deputy Sheriff Bowles, of Texo-
la, assisted Deputy Chilton during
the picnic, for which he has the
thanks of all concerned. He is an
efficient officer.
The Texola people turned out
ell to our picnic last week. They
were disappointed in not being able
to see the balloon ascension and the
failure of the roping contest, but
expressed themselves well pleased
with other features of the program.
Deputy Chilton is an excellent
J. W. Dye. of Danville. Ind., was
here last week looking after prop
erty interests and figuriug on ac-
quiring some valuable farm land.
He is a successful farmer and
are glad that he intends locating
here. He expects others from his
country to migrate to Greer county.
Rush Kimbell, the fourteen-year-
old son of J. R. Kimbell, residing
five miles east, with a number of
other boys was riding a two-year-
old steer Sunday evening as a sort
of recreation when the animal
threw him over its head. In fall-
ing tbe animal's horn struck Rush
in the left eye and destroyed this
very useful member. Rush former-
ly worked at the Times office and
is a first-class boy. We were sorry
to learn of his misfortune.
E. O. Love and little son and R.
J. McFarland were up from Elmer
Tuesday. The latter and wife, who
are parents of Mrs. Love, and re-
side at McKenzie, Tenn., are visit
ing their daughter. Mr. McFar-
land seemed greatly surprised at
the shipshod fashion of farming
displayed by some of our farmers.
He couldn't see why barns were
not built to house crops and ma-
chinery; why groves and orchards
were not put out and cared for; and
also why so many tried to farm
more land thaa they could attend
to properly instead of farming less
and cultivating it better. We be-
lieve that Mr. McFarland would
make a decided success farming in
Greer county if he would put his
theories into practice as many oth-
ers are doing. We hope the day
will soon come when all farmers
will farm.
Delhi Doings.
Everything is lovely at Delhi
