IF THE RAIN LET'S UP
Woods County Will Reap the Biggest
Harvest la Her History.

Harvest la Her History.
Alva, o. T., June -(Special) -Alva
and Woods county have been again visit
ed by one Of the greatest rains in their
history. The crops Of Woods county are
FAR better than in any year since the
opening in 1895. \ gentleman who has
just returned from 4 seventy-dve-mile
drive over the county says tina wheat,
corn, oats, barley, rye and all crops are
the best he ever saw il any country, east
or west. Many fields of wheat VIII make
thirty 10 fifty bushels per acre. If con-
diJions are such that it can be properly
saved. To show what the outlook is, take
the case of Mr.. William Jay, as one
among hundreds of farmers in Woods
county. Mr.. Jay moved to this county
in 1896 and bought = quarter section for
$50, a REIMBURSEMENT, on payments, one
and two years time. He left Kansas,
near Argonia, 500 in debt. This is prac-
uCal-y all paid and today he has u good
four-room house and barn S2x50. which
vii accommodate twenty head OF stock.
besides al his farming implements. He
has ten acres in orchards and s-ove, be-
sides trees on two sides 0f his quarter
section. He has COWS. horses. ru es and
hogs. ard his farm is model Of neat
ness and thrift. lie has five acres Of
orchard, which he can irrigate II neces-
sary. He is contented, and what he has
accomplished in three years is q marvel
81 good management and industry. There
are hundreds Of farmers as Wen fixed as
he.
The only drawback here now Is the i'm
mense rainfslL which may interfere with
harvest, which viii be under way in the
next ten days.

The small grain is freer this season from
rust or cinch bugs than any year since
the country was opened We have in
uired of farmers of different parts of the
county as to the crop conditions and they

Ell Reno, o. T., June 12-(special)-
Billy Walker, agent of the Kiowas and
Comanches, was in the city the other day
and in an interview with the Eagle cor
respondent said: Il expect and am en-
titled 10 another investigation. 1 have
endeavored TO do my duty as well as I
knew how, my books and papers are
straight, my relations with both white
men and Indians have been pleasant, and
can't see why men, on whom 1 have
spent time and money, helping to make
them what they are, should take an under
hand course in seeking to deprive me Of
my position. A thorough investigation of
my conduct of affairs at the Aanadarko
agency will show that I have done all
that mortal man could do in the prem
ises."

simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP

all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.

assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FORNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given TO millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. Il is
