OF DRY -FARMING
Siiokane Vash. Sept. 9. "He who
obeys theso prec-ciitu tihall reap abiin-
daul crons.'- 'He whu' !olnt" Hicin
sbsll !e imnh:bid by ucrvaso in yitUi
in proportion to the transgressioii."
Professor V. C. Palmer agricul-
tural "editor o the extension depart-
ment at the State Agricultural college
of North Dakota says this in a fore-
word to "tlie ten commandments of
dry farming" submitted to John T.
Burns secretary of the dry farming
congress for adoption at (he fifth an-
nual convention in Spokane October
3 to 0 in connection with the third
international exposition of dry fanned
products T!ie commandments fol-
low: I. Thou slialt plow deep.
Deep plowing permits rain to pene-
trate the soil easily and without run
off also provides more feeding space
lor' plant roots and makes available
more plant food.
II. Thou shalt keep the surface soil
loose.
This prevents soil mixture from
evaporating and conserves the rain-
full. Harrow grain after it is up two
inches or use weeder.
Jil. Thou shalt cultivate level.
Level soil aJlords the least exposure
1o the e ir and will take :u rainfall
luster than i!dgd soil.
IV. Thou slif.ii summer fallow.
This should be p'-actietd in all (lis-
tiicts where t'M ituiinal precipitation
Is b M than 1.1 iia H :'. as it conserves
two ye.-!n' rain for one crop and kills
vcrd-i anil plant o.'si :ies; land should
re Ce r-arly rain-
Conditions for growing are best dur-
ing the early Hummer; winter grains
are belter than those sown In the
spring.
VIII. Thou sshalt grow coin every
three to live years.
The cultivation required for corn
saves moisture kills weeds and plant
diseases. Corn is the best preparation
for a grain crop; it produces more food
and fodder per acre than other crops.
Do not hill up the corn as this wastes
the moisture.
IX. Thou shalt grow clover or alf-
alfa every tew years.
Rotating with these grasses adds
fertility and organic matter to the
soil ; kills weeds and diseases of plants
and produces kn excellent hay and
valuable seed crops.
X. Thou shall keep stock.
The most profitable way of market-
in grain and fodder is through stock
which proilnce the manure necessary
to the soil ami bring prosperity and
plenty to the dry land farmer.
"Professor Palmer's presentation of
(lie principles of this modern method
of tillage in the shape of precepts ap-
peals slrongly to members of the local
board of con'rol" Kaid Secretary Burns
"and it is likely that a substantial
prize will be offered for the best ten
commandments o- dry farming. The
plan is to submit all to the executive
committee of the dry farming con-
gress to cull the best thoughts and pre-
pare a set of commandments lo be in-
coiportaed in a handbook as a guide
for dry land farmers' all over the
world.''

THE GREAT SELLS FLOTO CIRCUS
And the Armour Prize Winners Com-
ing. ' '..
The world famous Armour grays the
(MIO prize winners are coming with
the 'great 'Sella-Kioto shows consoli-
dated Chicliasha Okla. Tuesday Sep-
tember 20. One can gain an idea of
the immensity of the combined shows
by the amount of paraphernalia car-
ried. It takes railroad cars of the eom-
bineif length of one and three-piarer
miles to transport it. Tlie' main' tent
has a seating capacity of 11000 people
there being 16000 yards of 30-inch wide
white drilling In tht roof of it alone.
Sixteen chefs prepare every day 2600
meals for a third of that number of
people and tlie food is rerved In alum-
inum dishes in two dining hall tents
by -1G waiters. It Hikes 10 tons of hay
to feed the horses awl elephaiils for
one day while eight iiin.l (pun ters and
four forequarters of fresh beef are con-
sumed by the animals and people Over
1)00 people are on the pay roll while
about 1000 are directly or indirectly
dependent on the! show for a Liveli-
hood. The menagerie contains many
dens and cages ;jf wild animals. Tile
circus performance is given in three
rings on two elevated stages while: the
(rained animal acts are presented in an
immense steel arena in the center of
the big tent.
The parade will leave the show
grounds about U o'clock the morning
of the show and w-11 pass through the
principal streets. Tlie afternoon per-
formance will commence at 2 o'clock
and the night show at S. The doors
will open for the inspection of the
menagerie one hour earlier. It is es-
timated that fully 20(0 visitors have
witnessed the unloading of the show
and the Armour grays daily in the
larger cities.

i'i'iUAL
RESULT
Of the Recent Primary-
the Total Vole is
Announced
Oklaliom aCity Sept. 'J. According
to ollicial announcement of the etafe
election board thero were 2!8;-!r8 votes
cast In the primary election of August
2 or tliem 125818 being democratic
79000 republican 130.'i4 socialist and
88 prohibitionist. Three years ago in
the first primry elect iaon the demo-
cratic vote was 108702. All other par-
ties that year made their nominations
by conventions. This year but fifty-
two counties reported any vote for the
prohibition ticket.
In each case the vote here given
was that cast for governor being in
the aggregate the highest for any of-
fice. There were east for and against
the grandfather clause 210078 or 21-
720 more than were cast for the ten
candidate for governor on the four
political tickets. This may be ac-
counted for in that the law permitted
no escape from voting on the amend-
ment. Every ballot cast had to be
either for or against the grandfather
clause and accepting the record of
the state election board as authentic
it means there were 21720 voters who
paid attention to neither race nor can-
didate but voted only for or against
the suffrage proposition.
Socialists and republicans both of
whom were opposed1 to the clause
claim' there was a shortage in their
precincts of ballots. Applied to many
precincts democrats make similar
complaint. It is asserted that social-
ists and republicans secured demo-
cratic ballot because there were none
of their own and voted against the
grandfather clause without regard to
the remainder of the ticket. The same
was also true lo some degree when
voting Uielr party ticket which had a
tendency to Increase the grandfather
vote over that cast for heads of the
tickets.
: Records of the slate election board
show the following vote for democratic
candidates for governor: Cruce 56051;
Kirk 2010; Murray 40000 and Ross
27087. Cruce led Murray by 13351.
The highest individual democratic vote
Was 72672 for Kate Barnard commis-
sioner of charities and corrections and
her plurality over Baker was 38071.
The next highest individual vote was
for Charles Taylor state examiner and
inspector who received 64831 with a
plurality over Landruin of 32343. 13111
Cross deceased nominated for state
auditor received third place with 08-
998 votes.
: The total vote for Cumble tho only
candidate for governor on the socialist
ticket was 13034 and the same vote ap
pears for other candidates for state of
flees. Stephens county cast the high
est number of socialist votes 60!) the
next bring Pottawatomie with 501 and
third was Pontotoc 196. Mcintosh
county returns for the socialist ticket
are missing. There was no contest for
state offices.

SILK HATS GO TO DAHOMEY.
Among the articles packed in a box

Under the heading "Ask Bob Rich-

ed in the Express the other day:
"A plain and simple answer for

Do only liars fish?"
No hiirm in that is there? But you
would have thought so If you had seen
Bob come tearing into the Express
sanctum with two hosspistols and a
brace of Gattiing gnus demanding an
apology. The hostile army appearing
suddenly and the Express force not be-
ing on a war footing we hastily con
cluded that "discretion was the better
part of valor" and therefore we soothed
Bobbie by explaining to him that the
little verse which aroused his ire was
an advertisement paid for by Jim Pet-
tyjohn and Col. Geo. Barefoot. And
then Bob exploded afresh. "A fine
