Guthrie, okla. Nov. .1O.-The state
board OF agriculture Is highly pleased
with the reports Of successful county
farmers institute meetings now being
held in the western part Of the state,
by Superintendent Elliott and his corps
OF institute lecturers and demonstra.
tors. said Secretary Chas f Barrett
today. This is particularly true Of the
extreme northwestern section Of the
state. which included the three PAN
handle counties Of Oklahoma, where
agriculture has been, heretofore, con
sidered something Of an experiment,
and where the lands have only lately
been wrested from total barrenness by
the indomitable homemakers and home
builders, who have lately taken up
homesteads In that portion Of the
state and are demonstrating the won
derful fertility and productiveness Of
the soil In those counties, even in
year Of limited rainfall.
In point of development Cimarron
county is the newest political division
of this new state, and II is one Of the
counties where the last legislature felt
the necessity of making an appropria-
tion to furnish seed for the hardy pio.
neers who had, in face of many dis
couragments, expressed their deter
mination to stick to It" until sue
cess had been achieved That the
aid was timely and has been put to
good use is evident from the following
verbatum report of Superintendent
Elliott who traversed every section of
that country last spring in distribut-
ing the seed fund.
This is his report of the Cimarron
County Farmers Institute, the regular
session of which was held at Boise
City, on November Jth and 9th.
THE Cimarron County Farmers IN
stitute was organized in July of this
year under the provisions Of the new
institute law, and the officers have
been instructed by the board of agri-
culture, from their Office at Guthrie,
about how to proceed with the insti-
tute work, and they have followed the
instructions to the letter, with the re-
suit that they have just held one of
the most successful farmers Institutes
that has ever been held in the state.
The surprising feature about the
whole affair was the splendid speei
ments of farm products which they u,
have on exhibition at this regular in
stitute meeting. They had an ex-
eellent premium list in which prizes
were offered for all the different kinds
of products that are grown on farms
down in the central and southern por-
tions Of the state The exhibit would
equal that OF any of the counties that
were displayed at the state fair, In
both variety and quality, and included
as fne pumpkins ana lflsh potatoes
as ever saw; Indian corn that would |
equal any Of the corn counties in the
state; as fine specimens of alfalfa as
can be grown anywhere-and without
irrigation; cabbage heads that weigh
ed 80 pounds; all kinds Of kafiir corn
and maize and excellent broom corn,
which seems to be a speciality in that ]
section. all kinds Of vegetables. wheat
and oats, and poultry of various
breeds. saw some as fine live stock
rs can be found anywhere in the state,
and young mules and horse colts that |
would be credit 70 Missouri and Kan.

Killed by a Fall.


 George Shields was found dead Sat- urday morning at the bottom of a big hay stack in Daytonville- The sup position is that when the shower came on Friday night he went to cover the stack with canvas and that he must have fallen from the top and struck on his head, as his neck was found to be broken.
 Fourth of July Injuries.
 Only one serious accident was re- ported in Winsted over the Fourth, the victim being August Soudier, 19- year-old lad, who had his right hand shattered by the explosion of a can non. The injured member was ann putated at the wrist.
 At New Hartford, Edward Matthieu, the If year old son of Julius Matthieu had extracted the explosive out of a large number of caps which are used in canes and had also broken up some small pieces of stone and had mixed them together, when they exploded in his face and eyes. It is thought that he will recover the sight of one eye but it is doubtful whether the other can be saved.
 Michael Silver, of New Milford, about 48 years of age, was badly in Jured Monday night by the premature explosion of a cannon fire cracker. MT. Silver was holding the cracker in his hand and the explosion blew off his thumb, the ends of two fingers anl slit the palm of his hand badly.

by Edwin c. Cooley. formerly super intendent of schools in Chicago. who said in an address before the National Council of Education that while it is the privilege of every American boy to try to become President of the United States, it does not follow that it is the business of the public schools to fit him for that position. "It has come to pass," he continued, "that we are educating about 100000 boys for the Presidency, and about 3O.000, 900 for nothing, because our schools are cramming things into their heads which will be of no use to them when they begin work in the factory or on the farm.''
 Thus, he raised the identical ques- tion which, as above stated, is under discussion here in connection with the proposed new High School building.

SUMMER HAIR
 DRESSING

The disagreable and repulsive odors that come from the hair in summer are caused by dandruff.
 Dandruf is caused by microbes which are hard to kill. but which can be killed by Parisian Sage, the quick acting, money-back hair tonic.
 Dandruff can never be cured until the small, l,aggravating and indomitab1e dandrun germ is conquered and de- stroyed.
 And millions of dandruff germs have been destroyed, thanks to the great scientist and dermatologist who gave to the world Parisian Sage, the only real dandruff cure and hair grow CT the world has ever known.
 If you have dandruff. Parisian Sage will cure you in two weeks, or your money back
 But besides ridding the scalp of dan- druff, Parisian Sage is guaranteed to stop falling hair and itching of the scalp. It keeps the sc1p cool and clean in summer. It is a prime favor ite with women of refinement. It makes the hair soft, ,lustrous and beau- tiful in a week, and is not sticky or greasy.

DAILY HEALTH HINT

Digestion waits on appetite and heath on both." is enaXim old and true. From this it is clear that the appetite should be keen and atura.-that is not forced by rich foods and highly spiced condiments There is no better way ito get up a good appetite, a keen genuine hunger, than by exercise in the open air and sun light.
 Then when the meal hour comes let it be a full hour instead oi 20 to 80 minutes. See to it too that the conversation at the tab,e is of the bright and cheery sort. Take plenty of time and chew your food thoroughly and this with plenty of outdoor ex- ercise. will preserve both your appetite and digestion and keep you well and vigorous in both body and mind.
