any," However, I would not always
choose the very largest tubers, as these
may be rough, coarse or unshapely,
but always those true to a type.
A great deal Of advantage may be
gained by selection in the field before
the crop is ripe and while it is yet
growing. Selection should be made at
this time with respect to growth Of
vine. health, size and height Of vine.
appearance, number, color and manner
Of growth in the hill, whether compact
or scattering, as the tubcrs being not
ma:Gre will show their characteristics
mos: forcibly ut this time. This should
be done just before the vine begins to
ripen.
The writer very much prefers mature
potatoes for seed as compared with
immature seed, Notwithstanding the
geat cry for second crop seed to the
contrary, provided this mature seed
can be stored in n cool enough place to
keep them from starting the least par
ticle of growth and ut the same time
not freeze. However, as so very few
are prepared to keep mature tubers
thus, we must either rely on second
crop or immature first crop seed, and
here comes in u selection and digging
before the crop is ripe. We must take
into consideration that the extra early
varieties will be more difficult to keep
than the late one if we are to use i'm
mature first crop seed, and as we can
not grow second crop in the north this
is the best we can do.
Potatoes will run out under certain
conditions, the same as other vegeta-
bles or fruits, consequently we must be
on the lookout for the tuber that has
the run out" marks. A potato that
has begun to decline will show it in q
difference in the shape and depth of
eye, eyes will be more numerous, and
the skin will have changed it's appear
ance, as shown in the cut where the
upper figure is q tuber from run out
stock and the lower is from true stock
Of the same variety. The foregoing is
the advice of a writer in American
Gardening.

Brown Rot of Primes.

Delaware treatment for brown rot of
the prune:
Very early in the spring it will be
well to spray the trees thoroughly with
q solution Of copper sulphate, one
pound to 25 gallons Of water.
When the fruit buds begin to swell,
spray either with the acetate of copper
solution or the bordeaux mixture.
Just before the first buds open repeat
the latter.
When the bloom begins to shed,
spray with bordeaux mixture.
In ten days or two weeks repeat the
latter.
When fruit begins to color, spray
with the copper acetate solution.
Repeat the latter in q week or ten

The Ideal Condition For Alfalfa.

me 1uea1 C00U1t100 F0T AI10I10
The ideal conditions of soil and mois-
ture for the growth Of the plant are
found, according to q. l.. Clothier Of
Kansas, in the valleys of streams
where sheet water is obtained at the
depth Of 20 feet or less and where the
soil is a porous, sandy loan with a
permeable subsoil. He is convinced,
however, that alfalfa will grow and
give remunerative returns upon as
many varieties Of soil as any other cul-
tivated plant. It will produce a fair
crop upon poor land If not water soak
ed. Sufficient moisture in the soil is
the n condition indispensable to q
good crop Of alfalfa.

COTTON IN GREER COUNTY
Yield and Price Conspire TO Fetch $50
Per Tale

Guthrie, o. T, Oct. 1.-THE Greer
County Monitor says: The Greer county
cotton farmer is in clover this year.
Throughout the greater part of the cot
ton belt of the territory the cotton is
immense. In Greer county the average
will not drop much under three-quarters
of bale to the acre. It is row worth
about $50 per bale. Fully ninety-ive per
cent of the cotton grown in Greer county
is grown by the owners of the land in
small fields ranging from ten acres to
100 acres to the farm, most frequently
being from Is to 50 acres. Practically
all OF the cotton crop is made without
hired help, the farmer and his family do
ing all Of the blowing, hoeing and Gull
tivating No expensive machinery is
needed total Investment Of $50 will
supply the cotton farmer Some help
must be employed in picking time, but It
is safe to assume that three-fourths Of
the crop will be picked by the growers
and their families. Almost the entire pro-
ceeds, therefore belonging TO the grower.

CLEVER But FUTILE
Story Presumably inspired by
the Nef Crowd
OF A DEEP CONSPIRACY
Of the Administration to Keep
Him Off the Ball ct.
OF A DEEP CONSPIRACY

Guthrie, o. T., Oct. ia sensational
story appeared in an Oklahoma City
newspaper last evening to the effect that
the certificate of nomination Of Robert A
Nen, the fusion candidate for delegate,
had narrow escape from being fled IN
the executive Office within the period al
lowed by the statutes, by reason of its
being miscarried in the United States
mails. It was the apparent intent of the
article to make it appear that the United
States postal authorities were in COLLISION
to prevent Neff's certificate being filed.
AS matter Of fact the certificate was
filed two weeks ago. The article in ques-
ton reads:
''On Friday, October u, Neff's certifi-
cate Of nomination was registered at FL
Reno and addressed to Tom Kerse, Okla
homa City. Probably because mailed too
late for the Choctaw train to this city,
the postmaster sent it north on the Rock
Island. Yesterday the fusion managers
became uneasy about the matter and had
the letter traced. Late last evening the
letter was found at oNrman, where it ar
rived on the afternoon train, having pass
ed Oklahoma City by mistake of the rail-
way mail clerk. AS today is the last day
for filing certificates, the matter was
growing very serious, so Postmaster
Murphy got in telephone connection with
the Norman postmaster and it was
agreed that the letter should be handed
to the railway mail clerk on the north
bound train this afternoon, and that the
registry clerk would be at the depot to
let Mr. eKrse have the letter, and he
would at once board the train and take it
to Guthrie. Again a misunderstanding
carried the Inflated letter beyond it's des-
tinauon. The early morning train does
not carry registered mail, but in spite Of
that fact the Norman postmaster handed
the letter to the clerk informing him that
a registry clerk would be at the depot at
Oklahoma City to receive 1t. But there
was no one to receive it at Oklahoma
City and the letter was carried on north
When this was discovered the clerk was
telegraphed to turn 1t over to the rail-
way mall clerk on the southbound train
which reaches here at 1:25 this afternoon
Fortunately, the letter arrived from
the north on the afternoon train and was
turned over to Mr.. Kearse, who took It
to Guthrie this afternoon"

DEATH OF STRUTTlNG TURKEY
OF the Sacs and Foxes He Was the
.golln Il Cough OF His Tribe.

Guthrie, o. T., Oct. 1.-THE Stroud Mes
senger says: Senator Nishcokot (Strut-
ting Turkey, for many years a very
prominent member of the Sac and Fox
council, died in his wigwam near Euchie
creek, Ponca township, last WAdnes Jay.
He was the monarch over three wives and
sixteen children. Whenever sick, he
would crawl away from his family and
found solace and often relief in the soli-
tary woods, where he would roll, grunt
and devour some herbs and roots; hut the
stern reaper cut down rugged Strutting
Turkey at the ripe age Of about 50 years.
He always bitterly denounced the young
Indians drinking habits, and often, to
keep them from going way in search Of
hell-broth he would treat them to a
sumphous dog soup feast.
