Boys and Matches Cause Fire.

A woodshed at the rear of J. H.
McGohan's residence, on Orondo ave-
nue., caught on fire at $50 this morn
ing, due, it is thought, to the fact
that the little sons of Mr.. McGohan
were playing with matches in the
shed. The building was soon in
flames and the fire department res
pended to the alarm. The fire was
extinguished without any serious
damage.

DON'T GO COTTON CRAZY

The New Education, journal
published by the state A. & NJ. Col.
lego. gives the formers Of Oklahoma
the following warning as to cotton
planting this season
There viii be found a marked dis
position among Oklahoma farmers and
landlords especially. to plant TOO much
cotton on farms when it is planted
at all next season. A patch Of cotton
is good thing for all concerned q
cotton fasm or plantation is a bad
thing for the state and the individual
These are facts OF history. Every
lGO-acre farm in Oklahoma situated
south OF the most northern tier Of
counties would probably be the better
Tor having a cotton patch Of five OF
ten acres in which some four or eight
bales or cotton are grown each year.
This cotton patch would enable the
farmer to give another family work
throughout the year and would bring
about the more intensive care and cul-
tivation Of the iGo--a thing for which
many thousand acres of Oklahoma
land are now suffering. A new field
Of labor throughout the year and 4

Of the nation have the retail merchants

articles-and they should be satisfied.
The department stores barons
should be given to understand that the
pressing of the parcels bill will call
for fight that may cut off some Of
the privileges they already enjoy.
The cutting down of present par
cells weight would work a hardship
upon some but in the main would re-
suit in great saving to the common
people and if the parcels post bloats
continue to press their claims in
Washington there should be a strong
movement put on foot to reduce in
weight the present postal packages.

chants awaken to their interests in

THE oKLAHoM AlDEAl

An Eastern paper having large cir
culation in the West, particularly
among the farmers, compliments the
efforts of Oklahoma to give the boys
and girls Of the farm the advantage
OF a thorough schooling in agriculture
and domestic science. In referring
to the secondary agricultural colleges
and the constitutional provisions for
teaching agriculture In the common
schools and state normals, the paper
commends the "Oklahoma Idea and
gives the constitution makers and the
legislature full credit for making pro-
visions for the highest development Of
the agricultural resources Of the state
a fair test is being given the value
Of the secondary agricultural schools
in the various judicial districts. The
schools now in operation show attend
ance beyond the expectation of the
heads Of the schools ana tia interest
shown by the patrons Of the schools is
reassuring That these schools are
destined TO play a prominent part in
the development Of the state, none will
question They are tangible assets
which must be credited to the state
when an accounting is made OF its re-
sources.
Bringing a technical training in ag-
riculture almost to the doors Of the
Oklahoma boys will not only result in
greater development OF the states
agricultural resources. but will in a
large measure solve the boy problem

feeders for the State Agricultural and
Mechanical College also insure lary.
