ORLANDO CLIPPER.

ORLANDO, - OKLAHOMA
NEW STATE NOTES
Secretary A. W. McKeand, of the
Oklahoma City chamber of commerce,
suggi-f-ts a department of commerce
lor the state of Oklahoma. Ho be-
lieves that it would contribute great-
ly to the growth of the state and the
development of her vast resources.
It is believed that the results obtain-
ed from the work of such an organ-
ization wouid repay the state many
times for the expense attached to the
department in the increased popula-
tion, enhanced values, the development
of her agricultural and mineral re-
sources, and the other sources of rev-
enue that would follow the growth.

GOOD REFRIGERATOR.
The Connors state school of agri-
culture has opened at Warner with a
full corps of teachers. A number of
promfnent visitors were present at the
opening and a program of addresses
and other features marked the opeit-
ing day.
After constantly grieving for her
husband who died two years ago,
Mrs. Mary L. Makinney ended her
lonesome life by drinking carbolic
acid at her home in Tulsa. In a brief
note addressed to Father Heiron, a
Catholic priest, her only request was
that her body be laid by the side of
her husband, who is buried in Co-
lumbus, Kan.
That a railroad is liable for dam-
ages to a person who is injured at a
station where he went to meet an in-
coming passenger is the holding of
the supreme court in the case of Jud
Cogswell vs. the Santa Fe cn appeal
from Bartlesville.
Suggestions as to Its Construction—
Circulation of Air Important.
We show herewith a plan of the in-
j terior of a well-constructed and prop-
erly built refrigerator. At the top
| of the inclosed space there is room
for holding ice and below this the re-
frigerator space, where the meat or
other products may be stored. Briefly
the wall consists of four-inch studs
about 16 or 18 inches apart, with two
thicknesses of lumber laid inside and
outside the studs. In the space be-
tween the studs up the whole height
of the wall may be placed sawdust
or other filler, generally used in re-
frigeration. For the ordinary refrig-
erator this makes fairly good insula-
tion.
For inside construction, the plan
provides for a circulation of air. The
serious difficulty in refrigeration is al-
ways that of moisture, and there is
no entirely satisfactory way as yet
discovered for getting rid of excessive
moisture in a small refrigerator. The
plan here suggested will certainly
lessen the amount of moisture, per-
haps reduce it to a tolerable propor-
tion. The plan consists in building a
flue on each side of the refrigerator,
one flue extending from the ceiling
of the refrigerator upward to the ceil-
ing of the ice chamber, and the other
fiueextendingfrom the floor of the ice
chamber nearly to the floor of the re-
frigerator. This flue may be built of
one-half inch boards laid on four or
6ix inch studs between this boarding

and the main wall. Besides these two
flues there is another horizontal flue
built just below the ceiling of the re-
frigerator. It consists of studs run-
ning across the room from one to the
other of the above-mentioned flues,
and these studs sheeted below with
thin sheeting. The object of this hor-
izontal flue is to draw the air from
what otherwise would be a dead cor-
ner of the room, namely, the upper
corner opposite'the upper ventilating
flue. With these arrangements there
will be a sufficient amount of circula-
tion acting continuously between the
air of the refrigerator and the air of
the ice chamber. The air of the re-
frigerator will pass up through the
flue from tlie ceiling over the ice
and will there deposit moisture on ac-
count of being cooled below the con-
densation point. This same air »-e-
turns to the refrigerator, by the op-
posite flue, dried and cooled.
The size and proportion of the build-
ing will depend altogether on the
amount of products to be stored. It
may be built anywhere from six feet
square and seven feet high up to a
large-sized house.
As to draining underneath either
the refrigerator or the ice house, there
should be drainage provided for both,
on account of the fact that the refrig-
erator requires to be kept as dry as
possible for the sake of the products
stored and the ground underneath the
ice house should be kept as dry as
possible for the sake of preserving
the ice. Natural or artificial drain-
age should be provided for either re-
frigerator or ice house.
CEMENT POSTS.
New Idea of Using Wood Above the
Ground.
Portland cement is used in many
ways, and a very durable post is made
of it. There are some objections to
stone posts of any kind; for instance,
the difficulty of fastening the fencing
material to them. The new idea post
seems to avoid this difficulty, says
the Rural New Yorker. It consists
of having the root or bottom of the
post made of cement and the main
post of wood. As it is up from the
ground it is not apt to decay, and in
case one does so, another can ba

substituted easily. The simple dia-
gram given will show at once just
what my idea is. The cement, B-D, is
cast with a jog, C, to take end of post,
A. Two bolts are used in clamping
them together. In moulding, run two
smooth, round sticks through mould at
B. It would also be well to reinforce
the cement post at the top, each side
of the holes, with old inch pipe or any
size one happens to have. This is an
ideal post for any purpose, for any
kind of fencing can be used, and easi-
ly stripped and changed.
FARM PICKUPS.
Garlic is good in moderation in cook-
ing, but not in pastures nor in milk.
Some men will plant any old sort
of trees and expect to get fruit from
it, but nine times out of ten they will
grow an abundant crop of disappoint-
ment. Get good varieties from re-
liable nurseries.
Many farmers consider their or-
chards as strictly a side issue. If
they would give _the trees proper at-
tention they would derive a good
profit.
It would pay to fix for spraying
this spring. The needed investment
would be small compared to the ad-
ditional profit.
Yearling steers will not hold their
weight during the winter on prairie
hay or cane hay alone, but will make
fair gains on a ration of one-half of
either of these and one-half alfalfa.—

Disadvantage of Beauty.
"One disadvantage of being good
looking," said the woman who ad-
mits that she knows she is handsome,
"is that I never get a chance to beat
my way on the street cars. Just be-
cause I am good looking the con-
ductor spots me when I enter the
car and he hustles right up to ask
for my fare."

sword."
Come Get Your Medicine.
If that little bit of three-cornered,
half-jointed, pin-headed squirt with a
big automobile and a size three head

who turned the corner of Ferry and
Main streets on two wheels the other
ofternoon, and nearly sent three pedes-
trians into Kingdom Come, will call
at this office we'll tear his scrawny
soul to pieces and lick him to a "fraz-
zle" after the most approved Roose-
veltian methods. He knows who we
mean.—Buffalo News.

remedy is permitted to remain unless
it proves beyond a doubt the best to
be obtained for its particular purpose.

place for many years. I have failed
to find a surer remedy. It cures itch-
