SOLDIERS TO FURNISH BIG
FEATURE.
Coming Encampment Promises to Be
the Best Ever Held—A Feature
Day Proposed—Governor to Re-
view Troops and Sham Battle—
Movie Man to Be On Deck.
The members of the Pull Together
club of Chandler hope to arrange for
at least one big day during the com-
ing encampment of the Oklahoma na-
tional guard, which goes into camp
at Chandler July 27 remaining fif-
teen days.
.An effort will be made to have a
review of the troops by Governor
Cruce and his entire staff. The sec-
retary of the club is now in com-
munication with the officials of the
Frisco and Rock Island railway com-
panies relative to the securing of
special trains and excursion rates.
A promise has been secured from a
moving picture concern to have their
camera man on hand during the big
day. Col. Roy V. Hoffman has prom-
ised the club his hearty co-operation.
In fact everything possible is being
done to furnish a full day’s enter-
tainment to visitors. It will be bet-
ter than any Fourth of July celebra-
tion. There will be approximately
a thousand soldiers in attendance and
on duty during the encampment and
there’ll* be (something doing frwery
day
There are hundreds of people re-
siding near Chandler who have never
attended an encampment or witness-
ed the soldiers go through their reg-
ular routine of work This work is
instructive as well as intensely inter-
esting. From the sounding of revillie
at r> o’clock in the morning to taps
at 10 o’clock at night the officers and
men are all busily engaged as though

. . COTTON CROP SUMMARY
By J. B Turner
•Im| «.|.»|« »|« -t-»|«»|« »j«»|««|«»|»»j
(Week Ending July 5, 1913.)
It appears that during the past
week cotton made more rapid growth
than during any similar period of
the season. Rains were widely dis-
tributed and while not in fevery in-
stance amply afforded the desired
moisture to much the greater part
of the belt leaving localities only in
the central belt somewhat too dry
for the best development In all sec-
tions where the plant is sufficiently
advanced it has begun to set fruit in
a very satisfactory manner
Small size has not 'been overcome
as yet by the recent growth but as
the plant is stocky, well branched
out and full of squares correspon-
dents take the view that it will pro-
duce well of bolls
A slight excess of moisture is not-
ed in North Carolina, Oklahoma and
Northern Texas, but as yet there is
not a serious factor for the fields
were generally in a good state of cul-
tivation and hence there is no grass.
As has been previously noted the
crop is not quite so far advanced as
usual for this date, but there has
seldom been a time when the culti-
vation was better, the development
more uniform or the plant more
shelter so necessary in the northern
states is reduced to the minimum.
The health of the animals is also
sbove th® irerage for * r h ** r sections
All this means that the farmers of
the southwest have an opportunity in
the production of live stock that they
can ill afford to neglect.
Where Silo Enters.
Although the kafir, milo and sor-
ghum crops rarely, If ever, fail when
given the same care and attention
as would be given a corn crop, the
stalks dry out to a considerable ex-
tent before feeding and a great deal
of the feeding value thereby lost A
realization of this fact has caused the
introduction of the silo Three years
ago the silo was practically an un-
known quantity to southwestern
farmers, but today it can be found
upon thousands of farms and they
stand as mute witnesses of the fact
that the southwest is now coming
into its own as a great meat produc-
ing center.
POISON FOR GRASSHOPPERS.
Kunnas Agricultural < u I lege Tell-
Farmers How to Fight Inva«lerH.
Manhattan, Kans.. July 5. The
grasshoppers are coming Some of
them are already at work. Fully 90
per cent of the eggs laid last fall
probably passed through the winter
uninjured, according to George A.
Dean, the bug expert at the Kansas
Agricultural College. Prof. Dean
says grasshoppers probably will do
more damage this year than in 1912,
unless prompt and vigorous work is
done to destroy them Poison bran
mash, the hopper doper, poultry and
young hogs have proved efficient for
checking the ravagesfof grasshoppers.
Poison bran mash should be made
this way: Bran, 20 pounds; paris
green or white arsenic, l pound;
syrup, 2 quarts; oranges or lemons,
•* • u ni
water, 3 Vs gallons.
In preparing the bran mash mix
i the bran, paris green or white
Those farmers of the southwest arsenic thoroughly in a wash tub
who still persist in attempting to
grow corn where repeated failures
have show'll the cro.p to be unprofit-
able have found a real friend in the
silo. Instead of having to lose the
whole cro.p when no grain Is made,
the stalks are now put in the silo.
Such silage is not as good as that
made from kafir, however, because
while dry. Squeeze the juice of tlit*
oranges or lemons into the water and
chop the remaining pulp and peel to
fine bits and add them to the water.
Dissolve the syrup in the water and
wet the bran and poison with the
mixture, stirring at the same time
so as to dampen the mash thorough-
ly. The bait when flavored with

H L. Hix of Olustee, Johnston
county, filled a silo with kafir last
fall and then purchased 25*head of
steers on the Oklahoma City market.
The steers averaged 7 24 pounds and
cost him $40.18 each after the ship-
ping charges were paid The daily
ration consisted of three pounds of
cotton seed meal, 15 pounds of
ground kafir heads, and all of the
will find it in the shortest time.
Sowing it in this mapner also makes
it impossible for birds, barnyard
fowls or live stock to get enough to
kill them. On alfalfa fields, in order
to get the best results, the bait should
be applied after a crop has been re-
moved and before the new crop has
started. As the poisoned bait does
not act quickly, it will be from two
to four days before the grasshoppers
are found dead, and these will be
more numerous in the sheltered
places. It does not take much poison
to kill them. Even a small portion

the famous post erected some years
ago by the surveyors of an English
road. It reads: "This Is the bridle
path to Faversham; if you can’t read
this, you had better keep to the main
road.”
Up to June 1, 1913 according to
the unofficial, but reliable figures is-
sued weekly, the total production of
sugar during the present campaign in
Cuba had amounted to 2,066,815 long
tons. In comparison with 1,662,789
tons at a similar date in the cam-
paign of 1912. The number at a

This was the unanimous verdict

"Never again,” was the universal
exclamation of Chandler people on
the evening of the 4th of July.
We didn’t attempt a celebration
this year, but, unless something now
unforseen happens, next year we’ll
"make the eagle scream" from early
morn' ’till late at night.
The town all day long was as quiet
as a church yard—or a store which
never advertises Nothing, absolute-
ly nothing doin’.
The only "rift iu the clouds" was
the Knights of Pythias .picnic at
Rohlinger’s grove, south of town, and
the Sunday school picnic at Leake's
grove east of town.
Probably between three and four
hundred of our people went to Roh-
linger’s. Here they found a beauti-
ful grove, benches, swings, band-
stand, refreshments. etc The com-
mittee of the K. p lodge had left
nothing undone to afford all comers a
grand good time. For the amusement,
of the picnickers there was a baseball
game between the fat3 and leans
The leans won, score 8 to 7. But
it was a battle royal from start to
finish Then there were volleyball
games and many other athleiic
stunts The dinner was "fit for the
gods " Plenty for all—and lots left
over The boys band furnished
plenty of good music while the re-
freshment stand did a thriving busi-
ness all day.
As a result of the ball game sev-

You’ve finished your course at the
college, my girl, and back to your
home you have come. It makes our
old hearts swell with pride and de-
light, to see our dear daughter at
home. But there’s one or two things
that must be understood before we
have gone very far, and one of those
things is a serious one—you kind o’
look down on yer ma.
She hasn’t much schoolin', her
grammar is poor; she doesn’t know
much about art; she's no great mu-
sician. her simple old songs just
bubble, untrained, from her heart;
she’s all out o’ style, an’ she’s faded
an’ gray, but she loves ye wherever
ye are; an' I want you to distinctly
understand this—she’s a pretty good
woman—yer ma.
We started in life, just a boy and
a girl, with little o’ goods or o'
wealth, but hearts full o’ love for
each other, my girl, good spirits,
good courage, and health. Her hair
was as black as the wings of a crow,
her eyes beamed us bright as a star,
an' I tell ye I felt pretty proud o’
my wife—she was mighty pretty —
yer ma.
Through long busy years we labor-
ed and strove to pay for our little
home nest, there was little o’ money,
the work it was hard, but we was
both happy and blest, and whatever
was doing within ot without, she did
more than her part by far in feath- Dalai8, °f_ a room with the plaster
erin the nest for the babies we
loved— a pretty smart woman—yer
ma.
Sometimes bad luck came an' our
crops wouldn’t grow, or losses would
fall to our share, but rn a wasn't blue,
an’ she didn’t complain, she never
was conquered by care. And when
I got blue, her kind lovin’ face above
me shone as a star as she urged me
to try, and then try again a heart-
enin’ woman yer ma.
When you children got able to go
into school, she labored by night and
by day, to keep you all tidy and clean,
an' help you along on your way
Each year of your college has cost
us a deal; we’ve worked, an’ we’ve
hoarded but ah, she's done more than
I to get you safe through the hard-
est has come on yer ma.
