'Senator Owen has very Indulgent
ly consented to visit Shawnee dur-
ing his brief Christmas trip to Ok-
lahoma, and he should be met and
greeted by the citizens of the coun-
ty enmasse. This evening there will
be p meeting to organize for the re-

rival ^nd a general attendance

jiR THE SOLDIERS.
i0 the various training
c . say that while the boys are
*eh and abundantly fed. they natur-
alb tire of the regularity of the sub-
stantial diet they receive, and crave
tweets and fancy cooking. For that
reason it is suggested that Christ-
mas boxes contain cakes, cookies,
candy and such other dainties as can
be ^hipped. They will be greatly
appreciated and go far toward im-
proving the lot of the boys who can
not get Chrietmas furloughs.
O
BE WAKE OK INCENDIARY
STORIES.
Stories which are patently false
are being circulated, as is perhaps
natural, concerning the conditions in
the various training camps of the
country.
The best way to find out what con-
ditions are is to visit the camps.
Those who have been there have
without exception reported condi-
tions BDlendid. the boys well cared
for and happy as a rule, the only
bed feature being homesickness on
the part of some who have never
been away from home before and
have not yet become accustomed to
camp life.
As far as disease i* concerned. lo-
cal physicians who have been to
some of the camps declare that the
camps are exceedingly well regu-
lated. every possible precaution to
care for the men is taken, and there
is no reason why a man in any of
the camps should not he safer from
the standpoint of health than he is
at home.
Visitors to the camps are shown
every courtesy, and as many as can
should take the time and trouble to
\IMt Camp Bowie or Camp Travis
or Camp Doniphan and see for him-
self, then tell his neighbors what he
saw. This would go far toward re-
lieving the apprehension that many
feel for the welfare of their loved
ones.

SAXON CO. OPENS
AGENCY HERE.
The Saxon Motor Car Corporation
of Detroit, Mich., is openlhg a dis-
tributing and service agency in
Shawnee.
It will be locally known as the
Shawnee Saxon Co.
Mr. C. X. Russell of Blanchard,
Okla., a roal estate dealer of that
little city, of McClain county, will
be manager of the Saxon interests
here and will move his home here
as soon as proper arrangements can
be made.
Mr. Russell has associated with
him Mr. D. C. Morris, a real estate
and stock dealer of McClain county.
Mr. Norris will be located at Nor-
man, Okla., on account of the Uni-
versity advantages to his boys.
This combination of capital and
energies will be felt in this city and
county, as they expect to deal and
trade In farm lands, in connection
with their motor business.
The world has come to recognize
the automobile as a "necessity." The
Saxon line In connection with the
carefully constructed beautiful "Da-
\is" car gives the Shawnee Saxon
Co. a car for every man and every
need.
The Saxon line will "fill the bill"
for the man with moderate means
who wishes efficiency, service cou-
pled with as much luxury as his in-
dividual pocket book will afford.
If you own a Saxon you have a
car that will "perform'* and do it at
the least expense of upkeep and op-
eration.
Numerous tests of continuous op-
eration for months have Bhown mile-
age of from 18 to 25 miles to the gal-
lon of gasoline, and the repair bills
ere practically "nlll."
The "Little Roadster Four" has
the most automobile of any car in
the world for the money. A com-
parison of standard equipment will
convince the "most skeptical." Sells
lor $935 and up. f. o. b. Factory.
The Touring and the Chummy
Roadster Sixes have all the stand-
ard equipment of the best and high-
est priced cars, cars that sell for
one and one-half to three times the
price. The careful business man or
woman will want to know "if I get
no more auto why do I pay more for
the auto?" The Touring Car and
Chummy Roadster retail for $935
and up, f. o. b. Factory.
If you have a Touring Six you
need not look at the other fellow's
"tall light" unless you don't care; it
Ib light, flexible, with a remarkable
easy shift and positive control, with
a "quick pickup'1 which makes it an
ideal car for getting over roads of
all kinds.
This car will be on display at the
"Chief Garage" till after the first of
the year when the Saxon will get
in its permanent home. Better buy
that Xmas car now. Let It be a
Saxon and you will not be "sorry."

CULL EARLY TO GET PROFITS
Every Breeder Is Anxious to Realize
on His Flock and Get Back
Some of Investment.
The advice to cull early seems un-
necessary this year, when every
breeder Is anxious to realize on his
flock and get back some of the money-
he has been putting into chickens. For
the home flock one wants early cock-]
erels, but If the trade in cockerels Is
for low-priced birds only, It will not'
be profitable to keep the early-hatched',
| males for the trade.
i Keep all pullets save the deformed.'
An early-hatched pullet, with all the
' disqualifications mentioned. In the
standard, may be the most profitable
bird on the place a3 an early layer.
She can be culled before the eggs are
; needed for hatching, but will pay for
! her feed until then. If one Is grow-
ing purebreds for the first time, get
one who understands the breed to cull
An expert will be uble to choose the
birds best worth keeping. We doubt
If caponlzlng will pay the farmer—cer-
tainly not caponlzlng the early bird.
GOOD CAl'SE FOR ALARM
These Figures Will Make Shawnee
People Take Notice.
Deaths from kidney disease have
increased 72 per cent in twenty
years. People over do nowadays in so
many ways that the constant filter-
ing of poisoned blood weakens the
klc'neys. Beware of fatal Bright's
disease. When backache or bladder
ill8 suggest weak kidneys, use Doan's
Kidney Pills, live carefully, take
things easy and avoid heavy eating.
Doan's Kidney Pills command confi-
dence. for no other kidney remedy is
so widely used or so generally suc-
cessful. Home endorsement is tho
best resident's story:
Mrs. J. A. Grimes, 119 S. Oklahoma
street, says: "I have used Doan's
Kidney Pills and have found them
to be a very effective medicine. I
took Doan's for backache and stiff-
ness and soreness across my kid-
neys. They gave me very good help
and relieved the trouble quickly. I
can surely speak well of Doan's Kid-
ney Pills."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that
Mrs. Grimes had. Foster-Milb urn

CLOVER SUPERIOR FOR EGGS
Favorite Food for Fowls, and Etch
Year Its Use Is Becoming More
General on Farms.
For years clover hos been a favor-
ite food for fowls, and each year Its
use is becoming more general. There
is a large percentage of nitrogen and
mineral matter In clover. What la
known as "rowen," the second crop.
Is best. In n high nutritive ration
clover equals barley, and almost equals
wheat.
It should be cut when In full blos-
som, 1. e., It should not be cut before
the first blossoms begin to turn
brown.
Being very rich In protein, clover
contains potash, soda, phosphoric acid
and other Ingredients that make It one
of the beat feeds for poultry. In short,
clover contains nil the essentials in
well-balanced proportion. In a ton of
clover there are about 39 pounds of
nitrogen.
EGGS ARE TURNED TOGETHER
Device Arranged by Minnesota Man
Facilitates Work Greatly—Heat
Evenly Distributed.
Every so often the man or womatt
who is hatching chickens in an incu-
bator must turn the eggs over so that
the heat will be proportionately dis-
tributed. To do so by hand Is a slow
process and Involves quite a great
Egg Turning Device.

sota man and hooks up some cog
wheels, a chain and a couple of rollers
to I Js Incubutor, and within a few sec-
oudf* you can roll over all the eggs In
the Incubator Instead of doing It one
at a time. Take one look at tho ac-
companying drawing and you will see
at a glance Just how the thing works.

Buying a Phonograph
the Columbia Way
• You enter the store. You are
courteously welcomed. \ ou
play as many records of your
own selection as you wish on
different Columbia models.
You ask questions about
phonographs. These are an-
swered to your entire satisfac-
tion. The more questions
you ask about the Grafonola
the better the dealer likes it.
First and all the time the
Columbia dealer impresses
you with this thought—after
all, what you are buying is
just plain phonograph satis-
faction. Sensible, isn't it?
The instrument you want in
your home is the instrument
that plays the kind of music
you like best in exactly the
way you like to have it
played. The only way to de-
termine this is to test the
Columbia Grafonola in your
own -home. Have the dealer
send a Columbia Grafonola
on trial and put the issue
squarely up to the instrument
— this is the best way to buy
phonograph satisfaction.
It is in direct comparison
that Columbia Grafonolas
appear at their best.

Columbia Grafonolas are made in a large

prices in the phonograph field.
