It has been suggested to us that the
city could make no better investment
than thespurch chase Of a road DRAG: The
use Of this impliment IS for dragging
the roads ats5a time after a rain when
the ground is Jig rls the best condition,
By its use the roads will soon be in
such condition that the rain will run
off into the cutters and q, leave the
streets without the deep wheel ruts
which, Is the case under present con
ditions. These drags are used on race
tracks and in many places where the
good road idea is practiced. They are
fine thing, and this suggestion is Of
fered for what it is worth. *E2:t5&s5 .

Substitute for Billups Bill.

Guthrie, Ok, Jan. 9.-An entirely
new prohibition measure is being
prepared as compromise between
those two extremes that exhibited
themselves In the discussion OF the
Billups bill.
The measure provides that liquor
may be sold at drug stores under
provisions of regulations made by
the state, 1t eliminates the dlspensa-
ry and enforcement commission fea-
lures. Its chief benefit seems to lie
in the fact that drug stores being
numerous would be more available
IN cases of necessity than county
dispensaries. The bill will be intro
duced Saturday in the house.

SOME COTTON ADVICE
MORE CARE SHOULD De TAKEN
OF THE CROP AFTER BEING
HARVESTED. e.

Notwithstanding the fact that cot.
ton is king. the farmers of this roe
tion OF the country take very few
precautions to take care of the king
of money crops Of this scctioo, and
as soon as the staple Is gathered
sinned and packed. they throw It
around In the open ON the ground and
let 1t stay in one place and absorb
the moisture from the earth and rot.
and when they market that same cot.
ton late In the fall and winter. won.
der why 1t is that buyers look
askancc at the offering and make Il
deduction In the weisht for rotten cot.
ton. The proof Of the fact that farm
ers take little or no care Of their
crop after It has been garncrod can
be seen by visit To any one Of
the Farmers Union cotton yards.
Cotton is very absorbent and If
left to lay out In the open ON the
-rouud should he turned two or
three times each week. and should
be turned as often as 1t rains. but
instead of do ingthis the average
farmer allows his crop to remain
on the ground without any thought
of turning. and thereby causes the
cotton to decay, and as result
ft L. ,p. Of h.
or securing as much money rs he
thought he would for his Offering.
finds out that ne has lost money as
result OF holding his crop, due
entirely to his own negligence.
A number of buyers In this city
were heard to remark. after visit
to the Farmers Cotton Yards In this
city that unless the cotton stored in
the yards was turned that a loss
would result to the farmer who has
ii stored. although the price that
he would receive would be higher
than what he had been offered for
It several weeks prev Ne.
The cotton dealer w.J stores his
own cotton in the open generally
keeps one or two hands employed
constantly in turning his cotton and
taking care Of his offerings on ac'
count of the fact that the mill men
of the country are careful buyers
and always deduct from the weight
or the Grade OF the cotton on the
slightest provocation.
Special Agent w. NJ. Bamberge was
heard to remark yesterday morning
just prior to his departure for Davis
that the farmers of this section were
the most careless Of any that he has
seen in good many days. and that
where the farmer has his cotton
stored AZ home no care is taken oi
1t, and that every day that the cot
ton is left on the ground without
being turned II means just that
much less none" for the crop wher
placed on the market
This is n bit of advice the farm
ers of this section might consider
even though they conclude to pay
no attention to 1t.
