day TO learn of the death of the nine
teen months old son of Henry Phippen
and wife, paralysis being the cause.
The family moved last spring from
over erst of town to near by Guthrie
Center.
Extra people were lonely Saturday
evening. On account OF the storm the
band was unable to give the usual
concert; but come to consider the mat
ter we believe the rest was appreciated
by the boys and the rain was very
much needed to settle the dust.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Knox celebrated
their third wedding anniversary on
Monday evening, September %, 1908,
at their home in The Heights. Only q
few friends we're present who presented
them with fiue new clock in remem-
brance of the occasion. The evening
was.spent in very pleasant manner
and dainty lunch was served.
The little show that had been in our
city the past week departed Sunday.
They were very nice people and Friday
night after the show they gavea dance
at which two prizes were given, the
first for the best WALTER and Nettie
Hockenberry was declared the winner
of the fruit dish. Saturday evening
they gave a second prize to the most
popular young lady in the city and
Rosa Metz received that prize.
Peter Tharnish, Junior, and Miss
Anna Mertes, both of this city, were
united on Tuesday morning, Septem-
Der 20, 1908, at the Catholic church, in
Extra, Iowa, Rev. Father Weiland,
their pastor, saying the ceremony
which made them husband and wife.
After the ceremony they departed for
the JIM. Martes home, west of Extra,

TO visit relatives and friends for few
days. We extend congratulations to
the newly married couple.

BALLOON FALLS
IN MIDST OF
OCEAN

Berlin, Oct. 1.-The second Of the
three American balloons that started
in the race for the international trophy
on Sunday from Schmergendorf has
met disaster in the North Sea. The
"St. Louis" manned by N. II. Arnold
of North Adams, Mass, and Harry ].
Hewitt, was carried overland by
treacherous air currents and later in
the haze the aeronauts lost their bear
ing until suddenly they saw the guard
lights of an unknown coast.
This meant they must descend or
risk the danger Of being driven far
out Of the track Of vessels. They chose
he former course and for an hour they
were buffeted by the waves, almost
giving up in despair.
Eventually they we're rescued by a
lIfeboat.
Three Of the balloons in the inter
national race are still unaccounted for.
Two Of the competitors in Mondays
ndurance race have not been report
ed, and It is hoped that these escaped
he changeable lower currents which
affected the other competitors and
succeeded at higher attitudes in reach
ing Russia. The flotllla OF torpedo
boat destroyers Is seaiching the North
Sea. where thick fog prevails.
The English balloon "Banshee" so
far as present estimates go. has Gov
cred the longest distance in the race.

FOREIGN MAIL
is LARGER
Cotton Season Sends Much
Mail To Foreign
Lands Rate Is
Increased

The new postal rates on foreign mall
which went into effect Oct. make q
difference of from so per cent to 100
per cent in the postage receipts on all
first-class mail leaving the United.
States.
The old rate was cents for each
half ounce on mail to every foreign
country, while the new rates make It
5 cents for the first ounce and cents
for each additional ounce to all conn-
tries excepting Great Britain and Ire
land. To these two. nat rate OF
cents an ounce has been made.
A marked difference may be seen in
the postal receipts in the local post
office since the new rates became ef-
fective. as the foreign mail is large
here during the cotton season. Under
the present rates the postage on all
classes OF foreign mail going out from
Chickasha, averages $50 month in
the winter.

had been shipped In from Topeka,

infancy, but it has surely been proven
that 1t can be grown mere in quanti-
ties and quality to equal California. No
floors need go unswept, because OKLA
homa broom corn is unrivaled. The
dairy business is a growing industry
that should be encouraged.
While so much is being said about
packeries, we would like to call atten-
tion to the fact that hog buyers buy
on a margin of 80 or S5 cents under
the Fort Worth market and this money
would just as well be kept among the
farmers as given to the railroads.
There is no place under the shining
canopy Of heaven that could grow rich
SO fast as our beloved Oklahoma, be-
cause nearly all the necessaries of life
and many luxuries can be obtained
within its borders.
Let every housewife ask the Ques-
ton, when she contemplates a pur-
chase. "Is It a home product? do
not want anything that has been Inn
ported If It is being made at home. :"
When the people will use 1t the farmer
can be depended on to furnish the
stuff.
1t lies with the power Of the ladies'
clubs Of Chickasha to bring about these
conditions. Let them take up the work
Systematically and organize home prod
ucts consumption leagues. Wonders can
be accomplished in a very short time.
Small factories would bring large ones
and when these things come to pass
empty cars will be brought into Okla

There has been so much written con-
corning the possibilities of our coun.
try that we hesitate to try to add any
thing but we've seen so much valuable
products so to waste and feel SO
strongly on the subject that we have
hopes of impressing others with our

A person who had been buying Kan
sas flour, in the belief that it was bet

neighbor for the weeks baking when
the bridges were washed out last
spring and was surprised at the SUI
periority of the bread and pastry. On
questioning the neighbor It was learned
that the flour was made in Chickasha.
1t is needless to say that no more
Kansas flour goes into that home.
Why do we ship kaffir corn to Min
neapolIs and buy 1t back ground into
a popular breakfast food? Why do we
buy sweet corn that is canned in Iowa
and feed ours to the hogs? Our white
corn is as fine as grows, and yet we
import hominy and cornflskes. We go
to Texas and California for cabbages
and onions when we can raise just as
good at home. Why do the merchants
buy their sorghum from st. Louis re-
fineries. when perfect sorghum cane is
grown all around Chickasha and is fed
to stock? Why do we pay freight on
canned tomatoes from Baltimore and
Indiana points when as fine specimens
as ever grew can be found in abund-
ance in hundreds OF our gardens. We've
seen tons Of pumpkins rotting that

been a cannery in Chickasha and sweet
