Carter, belongs the distinction of be-
ing awarded one of the largest coal

duce and load onto cars 800 tons of
coal a day for a period of
years.

There are 12,500 boys and girls en-

No Open Season For Doves.
There is no open season in Okla-
homa for the killing of any kind of
doves, according to a ruling of the
attorney general and which has been
concurred in by State Game and Fish
Warden John Chenoweth. During the
past few weeks numerous Inquiries
have reached the department concern-
ing the season on doves. “This depart- appropriated $2,260 to cover 532 schol-
ment has had numerous inquiries as
to the killing of doves,’’ said Mr. Chen-
oweth. “We have advised each and
all calls there was no open season on
doves and In each instance tried to
provide the Inquiring one with a copy
of the state game laws, but this did
not satisfy ail and we still had many
requests .pleading with us to ask for
an opinion from the attorney general
and we have an opinion from the at-
torney general's office which we think
is sufficient."
Gas Conservation Order.
After weeks of consideration of a
great mass of evidence largely of a
technical nature, the corporation com-
mission issued an order promulgating
certain rules anu regulations govern-
ing the production of natural gas in
Oklahoma, and which are designed to
curtail the present enormous waste
and conserve the supply. The order
is issued in pursuance of authority
conferred upon the commission by an
act of the last legislature, known as
the gas conservation law. A compan-
ion law to the oil conservation law.

A Big Payment To Counties.
Within the next two weeks, accord-
ing to the statement of State Treas-
urer W. L. Alexander, the state funds
will be depleted to the amount of
$700,000. About $500,000 of this
amount will be dispensed from the

Must Set Out Counts In $1,000 a Day
In a ruling made by Judge John W
Hayson in the Oklahoma county dis
trict court it was held that where
judgment is asked for at the rate ol
$1,000 a day for the renting of prop
erty wherein an illegal business is
carried on, it is the duty of the county
attorney to make a separate count Id
the petition for eacn violation.
The question came up in the P. Ifi.
Holmes case, Holmes having been sued
by the county attorney for $300,000,
as the owner of a building at the reat
of the Lee-Huckins hotel where it
was claimed that an unlawful business
was in progress for 300 days, from
' une 6, 1914, to April 6 1915.
Before the case can go to trial un-
der Judge Hayson's decision it will
be necessary for the county attorney’s
office to set out 300 separate and dis-
tinct counts in the bill.
Big Bond For Capitol Contractors.
A local bonding agency has just ex-
ecuted a bond of $1,253,500, the largest
by the way ever executed in the state,
for Janies Stewart & Co., the firm
■which will erect the new capttol. The
premium on the bond amounted to
$12,535. This is considered quite a
gain over the first bond which the
same company executed a few years
ago for $250 and only goes to show
the progress which Is being made in
Oklahoma City.
Safety First.
As s means of giving local impetus
to the safety first movement, which
bus been sweeping the country for
the past two or three years, State La-
bor Commissioner W. G. Ashton Is
completing plans for a state-wide
safety meeting to ho held in Oklahoma
City some time about the first of No-
vember. Manufacturers, mine oper
ators, contractors, railroad officials
and others who furnish employment
of a hazardous nature will be invited
to participate lu the meeting.
State May Kill Diseased Stock
According to an opinion given Wed-
nesday by the attorney general's of-
fice to President Frank M. Gault of
the state board of agriculture, the
state veterinarian has authority to kill
diseased dairy cattle under an act of
the last legislature.
The use of the term "livestock" as
used in the act the attorney general
holds, is sufficiently broad to include
dairy cattle. The act was passed at
the time the hoof and mouth disease
threatened disastrous results to live-
stock in Oklahoma. No stock is ex-
cepted from the provisions of the act
and, in the opinion of the attorney
general, it was the intention of the
legislature that Its provisions should
include all livestock.
Court Grants Writ Against Co. Judge.
An alternative writ of prohibition
was granted by the criminal court of
appeals, prohibiting County Judge W.
R. Jones of Payne county frou trans-
ferring certain bootlegging cases from
Stillwater to the district court at Cush-
ing for trial. The writ was made re-
turnable September 7. It was alleged
in the petition filed with the court ask-
ing for the writ that the county judge
was preparing to transfer a large num-
ber of, cases to the district court at
Cushing, when they should be trivd a*,
i Sallwater.

John Kendrick Banks, author of “A

Bummer at his camp in Maine, said in
an interview last week: "People
should own and read books Just as
they should seek friendships, and try
to understand their friends. A book
that one has come to know, and to
love, is one of the truest of friends.
In my library in Maine are not many
books, but none the less Lincoln walks
there with me; Emerson is my friend;
Balzac and Dumas are permanent
dwellers at my side; I frolic with
Mark Twain there; I travel with O.
Henry, and I play boyish tricks with
Aldrich and Penrod; I fence with Mon-
taigne, and the great spirits of "The
Spectator."
Was a Luxury That Filled an "Aching
Void" in the Down
East Boy.
What memories this reference to the
flve-cent ginger cake of commerce will
arouse in the minds of men approach-
ing or past middle age who passed
their boyhood in the country!
At all public gatherings where con-
cessions were given for the serving of
refreshments it was the chief feature
in the order of the day down to a
period of much later than half a cen-
tury ago. And then it seems to have
disappeared, suddenly and mysterious
ly, after the manner of the disappear-
ance of the bootjack and the passen-
ger pigeon, and like them probably
never to return.
Who among us whose hair has grown
thin atop or disappeared altogether
cannot recall the bill of faro of the
refreshment venders in those earlier
and simpler days at fairs, town meet-
ings and Fourth of July celebrations!
The assortment was not elaborate, but
it was filling and satisfying, and one
got a good deal for his money, says
the Biddeford (Me.) Daily Journal.
Most conspicuously displayed were
those ginger cakes, everywhere lo-
cally known as "baker’s gingerbread,”
to distinguish it from homemade gin-
gerbread, which lacked the delicate
color, the spicy fragrance, the work-
manlike finish and pleasing regularity
of the imported article. Then there
were cofTee served in big mugs; crack-
ers and cheese, baked beans and
brown bread, not infrequently home-
made doughnuts, and always raw oy-
sters.
The gingerbread and the oysters
were the things that took with the
crowd; for only on such occasions
were these viands readily attainable.
What country boy has not watched
some older person order a saucer of
raw oysters, cover them with vinegar
and cayenne pepper and then absorb
them as to the manner born, with-
out admiring the grace and nonchal-
ance with which the trick was done
and wishing for the time to come
when he might venture to give such
an exhibition?
His consolation lay in a “sheet" of
that famoua baker's gingerbread, and
if he was particularly well fixed finan-
cially. a piece of cheese to go with
It. Those were, indeed, happy days,
when a piece of gingerbread and a
hunk of cheese at a total expense of
six cents, would fill an aching void
which in these degenerate days is
hardly satisfied with a six-course din-
ner.
It may be assumed that the men
who made that famous gingerbread
are not all dead. Here and there-
throughout the country there must be
several survivors who retired for well-
earned reBt after long service in the
best interests of hungry humanity.
This being the case, It is barely pos-
sible that the recipe for those ginger
cakes is not Irretrievably lost.

The Bonnie Conductor Lassie.
Edinburgh, Scotland, has two dozen
women street car conductors who are
a thorough success in the new line of
work. Other tramways are already
recruiting girls and training them to
be conductors. It is said that girls
working in the English cartridge fac-
tories are so fired with patriotism
that some of them work thirty hours
in a stretch without any rest. Miss
Elizabeth Lister has been appointed a
statlonmaster in South Wales, the first
woman to act in that capacity. In
the north of England and in Scotland
and Wales the men workers are being
supplanted in the fields by women,
who can be seen following the bar-
row or digging and hoeing.
It was a Kansas woman, of course,
who traded the family refrigerator for
a pair of roller skates. A Kansas man
would have dickered for a different
kind of skate. •

Food for tbe
Business
Trenches
It takes the highest type of nerve
and endurance to stand the strain at
the battle front of modem business.
Many fail. And often the cause
is primarily a physical one—improper
food—malnutrition. It is a fact that
much of the ordinary food is lacking
in certain elements—the mineral salts
—which are essential to right building
of muscle, brain and nerve tissue.
Grape-Nuts
J food
made of whole wheat and barley, contains
these priceless nerve- and brain-building
elements in highest degree.
Grape-Nuts food is easy to digest—nourishing—economical delicious, and
as a part of the menu of modem business men and women helps wonderfully
in building up the system for strenuous demands and keeping it there.
