LIKES OKLAHOMA

Mir. Editor:-If you will allow me space in your paper l will say word or two to my friends in Arkansas.
 This is fine country and every thing looks fine, and there is as fine a prospect for good crop as | ever saw. There is plenty of corn big enough to blow, and the land is as easy to cultivate as I ever saw. It produces we'll, too, and makes from 50 to 75 bushels of corn and from one half to three-quarters of bale of cot ton per acre. Land rents at s per acre or the third and fourth, and this country has Arkansas skinned a city block when it comes to farming.
 I have not done what I would call a days work since 1 have been in Okla homa, and I have D acres of corn almost ready for the blow. What do you think of that? k. T. JENNINGS.

 bright on Streets of Newport

Newport, April l4.-W. C. MeDou- gal, who was shot and seriously wounded several weeks ago by Noel Albright, this afternoon shot at his former assailant, and, had not officers interferred, would undoubtedly have killed him.
 McDougal was standing on Front street, almost exactly in the sport he stood when Albright shot him. AL bright passed by and when he had gone past, McDougal drew .3s pistol and fired one shot. Albright saw the gun before McDougal could use it and ran into a store. McDougal pursued, but he could not oyertake his man before ran officer grabbed the gun and dis armed him. It is probable the first shot would have been effective but for the fact that McDougal's $ right arm is not yet well from the wound Albright inflicted and he could not handle his pistol

CUT THE COTTON ACREAGE
Harvie Jordan Issues Statement Urg- ing Reduction of Cotton Acreage

In signed statement to the farmers of the South, issued few days ago, Harvie Jordon, president of the South ern Cotton Association, urges re- duction in cotton acreage of B per cent. Unless this is done, he says, prices will be low next fall Mr. Jor- dan also urges growers to hold what cotton they have. The statement fol- lows:
 At no time in the history of cotton production in the South has it ever been more imperative to reduce the cotton acreage throughout the cotton belt and increase the staple food sup plies of every farmer than this spring. With a shortage in the W 1rld's supply of cotton, amounting to I ,500, ,000 bales, due to bad seasons last year, the price of spot cotton continues to go steadily down. American mills have been for some time curtaihng the manufacture of cotton goods, due to trade depres- sion, and the condition of the foreign trade.is none too bright at the present time.
 sIf the acreage is planted in cotton this year that was planted in 1907 and followed by good seasons in America, India and Egypt, the growers will find but little or no prpfit in the harvest next fall.
 s'These are facts and should be seri- eusly considered. To those who are still holding portion or all of their last years crop, wish to say that general cooperative efforts are now being made all over the South to tie up this remnant of the 1907 crop re maining unsold until prices have reached much higher levels. Every bale of cotton now in the hands of spot holders will be need by the mills of the world before next September. The portion Of the crop now remain ing unsold is very small, and can be held and financed for three or four months longer if necessary. Within that time, if the sale of cotton is abso- lutely checked all along the line, the price of the staple must advance to much niger levels.
 .'Let every cotton planter cut this springs acreage B per cent, and find what prices will be received next fall; let every spot holder in the South re- fuse to market any cotton for the next few months, and the remnant of 1907 will be marketed at remunerative and satisfactory prices.
