DEEDS TO CREEK LANDS,
Considerable c Of Muddse Ia the Of
flee of Indian Agent.

There is considerable OF a mud
die at the Office Of the Indian
Agent in Muskogee over the new
deeds of the Greek lands. The
Secretary OF the Interior furnished
a set OF forms that we're TO be used
according TO the rules and regula-
tions OF the department, but the
government did not furnish
blanks. As a result every news
paper In the Greek Nation printed
blank forms for the deeds as well
as leases. The reading matter in
all deeds is the same. but the
agent thinks the Secretary will re-
quire all deeds to be printed IN
the same manner.
Many deeds have been sold and
they are now coming into the Of
fee OF the agent for approval. The
Agent and the inspector have also
agreed that the form for the deeds
does not conform to existing con
ditions and have taken the mat
ter up with the Secretary Of thu
Interior. In the meantime thu
blank deeds as printed have beer
sent TO the Secretary for him Il

spring.sown oats succumb to the warm
summers. In growing winter oats the
seeding should be done early in Sep
TENDER and on good soil. 1t is true
that oats will do well on less fertilizing
than wheat, but, on the other hand,
they pay well for good fertilizing.
By sowing at the time specified they
will get good start and cover the
ground sufficient to protect the roots
during the winter. In the spring they
may be late in starting up, but they
will come unless the winter has been
sufficiently severe to kill them out
completely. The plan is well worth
trying, at least on small area.
