TO KEEP FERNS ALIVE.
In Potting Rich Soil. Preferably Leaf
Mold. Is Needed for
Them.

Nothing adds more to the attractive
ness of room than pot of ferns. But
how to manage ferns when they come
from the florist is what few housewives
know. If the intention be to pot them
singly they should be repotted in
size larger only than the pots they have
occupied. If received by mail, with the
soil washed from the roots, put the
plants into as small pots as will nat
urally accommodate the size OF their
roots. Place bits of charcoal or broken
pottery an inch in-depth in the bottom
of the pot for drainage. Cover this with
thin layer of moss or leafy refuse to
prevent the soil from washing through.
An ideal soil in rich, flaky leaf mold,
with one-fourth part coarse, sharp sand
well mixed in. In the absence of leaf
mold well-rotted sod, rich in decayed
roots, is excellent; or chip dirt, mixed
with decayed straw or such matter;
with either of these use the same pro-
portions Of sand. One need not always

edge of the walks the leaves from shade
and other trees find lodgment year aft

be added to the soil for ferns; an ex-
ception may be made with very strong
growing yarieties--a little may be add
ed with beneficial results if so thor

black earth, A few bits of charcoal,
varying from the size of pea to that
of hazelnut, may be scattered through

After the famous base ball game
of Wagner We Muskogee portion
of the Wagner team turned up at
Parsons. where they attempted to
burglarize store and were discov-
cred in the act by the night watch
man, who was shot and killed by
one of the bandit ball players and
he shot one of them. Six were
captured and placed in Jail and
the feeling was SO intense against
them thai il was thought best to
take them to Oswego to prevent
summary action by the enraged
citizens of Parsons. What Wag-

CATTLE SWlNDLERS.
A Number of OkIahomas '.do up"
Jones Brothers TOR $1,000.

The governor Of Oklahoma has
honored a requisition from the
governor of Missouri asking for
the custody OF six cattlemen who
are accused of swindling Jones
Brothers, live stock commission
merchants, of Kansas City, out Of
$1,000 by means Of bogus mort
cages. The transactions took
place about two years ago. The
men are under Indictment IN Jack
son county, Mo for obtaining
money under false pretenses. 1T
is asserted that Coleman and his
associates sold cattle to persons in
Oklahoma and then secured the
sales by taking mortgages on a
much larger number of cattle than
had actually been sold. The mort
cages were sold to Jones Brothers,
who allege that upon inquiry
they found they had been duped.
A suit to recover the money by
civi! process is now pending in. the
district court of Canadian county.

The reason the non-citizen mer-
chants are not disturbed for tax in
this country is because the Cher
okee Law never recognized any as
being here. Neither did the inte-
fiof department.

You Are a Democrat

and. Of course, want a Democratic
newspaper. THE CHICAGO DIS
PATCH is the Great Democratic Week
ly Newspaper of the Country. 1t
advocates the readOption of the plat
form and the denomination of William
Jennings Bryan.
There has never been a political
campaign that will equal in import
ance that of the one to be fought next
year. The Republican party, backed
by the money power of this country
and Europe, is alert and aggressive.
Flushed with the victory of three
years ago it will seek by every means
in it's power to maintain its supremacy.
Democrats must be up and doing.
They must wage an unceasing war
upon their enemies. In no better and
more effective way can this be done
than by the circulation of good, sound
Democratic newspapers. THE CHI
CAGO DISPATCH, will send to every
new subscriber for three months a
copy of THE CHICAGO DISPATCH
for ten cents. If you are not already
taking this great political weekly,
send in ten cents at once. You should
not only do this yourself, but you
should induce all your friends to join
with you. By little effort you can
easily raise a club of ten or twenty
subscribers.
