Are ? You
The selfish man always thinks only of himself; the unselfish
man has a disposition, not only to remember himself, but also the
horse which draws himself and family.
In which class are you?
We make a specialty of caring for your horse's feet. We apply
ourselves every day to the study of the best method of doing horse-
shoeing. We believe our work Is important. If you could feel as
your horse does, you would know our work is important. It costs
no more to have the best work done where every shoe is made to fit
the foot it is put on. Bring your horse to our shop.

HIS RESIGNATION
IS ACCEPTED
Oklahoma City, Aug. 14.—After
hearing charges preferred against
W. A. McLarmore, chief enforcement
officer, Governor Cruce today in-
formed McLamore that his resigna-
tion would be accepted.
McLamore had been charged by
members of the civic league with un-
becoming conduct in a road house.
Members of the league raided the
place and found McLamore there. He
stated before the hearing that he had
been asked by the woman who runs
the place to come there, that she
wanted to Inform him how officers
had conspired to "Job" her.
cLamore stated that he went to
the house alone, that whi'e he was
there members of the raiding party
came to the house. Some of them
knew him, others did not. McLamore
said that he had been invited by the
woman to drink beer but that he de-
clined and Instead took a glass of
buttermilk.
Governor Cruce decided that unless
he could have the most complete co-
operation between enforcement offi-
cers and the people who were sup-
porting the enforcement of the pro-
hibition law there would beno use
to try. He informed McLamore that
his usefulness as an enforcement of-
ficer was at an end, although he did
not doubt his honesty or integrity.

REDUCED EXPRESS
RATES IN OKLAHOMA
Oklahoma City, Aug. 15.—A prop-
osition for a compromise which will
reduce express rates in Oklahoma at
least 15 per cent was offered to the
corporation commission Monday by
all the express companies except
We'.ls Fargo & Co., and the prospects
are good for an agreement between
the companies and the commission on
a general reduction of rates.
The companies agree to the com-
mission's rates on all special classes
such as repairs and machinery,
fruits, vegetables, etc., the only
difference being on merchandise
and cream rates. On merchandise
the companies submit a schedule
of rates that will be satisfactory
to them, which make a reduction
of 12 Vt to 15 per cent on the rates
now in force, as against a reduction
of 25 per cent proposed by the com-
mission. They also agree to put in
what is known as the Rock Island
cream rate, which was the rate or-
iginally asked for by the creamery
men.
Taking all of the rates together
the reduction agreed to by the ex-
press companies will be somewhere
between 15 and 20 per cent below
present rates, as the acceptance of
the commission's rate on special
classifications makes the total re-
duction greater than the percentage
agreed to on merchandise rates.

WHY CORN SUCKERS
Will you, if possible, please tell
me why corn suckers?—Arthur De
Bord. Custer County, Oklahoma.
Corp usually suctars in order to
fuMy occupy the space on which it is
planted. In other words it is the na-
ture of plants to cover the ground
rather thoroughly. You have prob-
ably noticed that when wheat is
seeded thin that it stools much heav-
ier than when seeded thick. Some
varfeties, of course, naturally stool
much more than others. The short-
er the stalk and the richer the soil
is, the thicker the corn should be
planted, in order to keep the plants
from suckering. This year, owing to
the very dry season, our corn as
made but a very little growth and is
suckering more than usual. This is
because the entire p'ant is exposed
to much stronger sunlight and not
because the plants grow better under
poor conditions. 1 think it makes
little difference what method you
use in planting and in no case will it

whom, Wi'.liam C. Liedtke of McAl-

to appoint lies with them, and not
with the governor. Higgins was the
