NEW RATES OF THE
EASTERN RAILWAYS

EASTERN RAILWAYS
WASHINGTON, June st was esti-
mated by the officials OF the Inter State
Comerce Commission that the new COM
modify rates filed by The New York Cen
trail covering traffic from New York to
ST. Paul provide increases Of from to l3
per cent The heaviest increases are on
asphalt bagging oysters, pitch and tar
The other increases are below 10 per cent
The commission has not pc: had time to
make comparisons between the old and
new tariffs filed by the Pennsylvania,
Baltimore & Ohio and Erie. systems but
it is presumed that the Increase will aver
age about the same as the New York Cen
trail. Practically every noad rorth of the
Potomac and Ohio rivers and as far west
as the Missouri river has now indicated
officially its intention 20 increase its COM
modify rates either on or before July 5,
Nothing has been heard as yet by
the commission as to whether the roads
operating in the southeast or on the
Pacific coast intend to follow the ex-
ample set by the eastern and middle
western Grads.
The opinion was expressed to-day
that the Pacific coast roads would not
increase their rates because there is
already much criticism Of the higher
rates to the inter mountain states than
to coast terminals and also because of
competition.
The Memphis. Tennessee Grain and
Hay Association to-day filed a COM
plant with the commission against all
| the railroads operating in the Missis-
sippi Valley TO the effect that rates on
the commodities dealt in by the asso-
citation were such as to discriminate
against buyers at Memphis anC
against shippers from Ohio, Indians
and Michigan points, to the extent OF
from cents to cents per 100 pounds

HOW HE BEsTED oUAcK GRASS

HOW HE BEsTED oUAck GRASS.
A Minnesota farmer who has had an
intimate acquaintance with quack
grass covering a period of about TWEEN
~ years rid his land-six acres-of the
pest in the following manner. Begin
ming in 1905 he allowed the grass to
grow until it blossomed. but before
any seed formed he cut the patch and
made hay OF it. He then plowed the
stubble under smoothly, using the disk
harrow to work up a seed bed and
aiming to disturb the sod as little as
possible. On this he sowed German
millet the 10Th of July. The seed came
up well. but owing TO dry weather
following the millet did not do we'll
He turned steers in to pasture the
patch in October and plowed. the
ground the latter part OF November.
In the spring Of 1909 the qlack grass
looked sick. but soon began TO take on
life. He disked the patch about once
a week until the middle of June, when
he again plowed it. narrowed it fine
and drilled in a peck and a half OF
fodder corn to the acre. Last fall he
harvested three and a half tons Of dry
fodder per acre. one-third Of which had
produced good sound corn. The field
is at present completely controlled
and he says that any kind of a titled
crop can be raised this year without
any trouble from the quack. Corn
with thorough cultivation. n this farm
er's opinion, must enter largely into
any rotation whose purpose is to kill
out quack grass. while disk tools
should be used so FAR as possible in
the tilling of the soil

REV. {. {. WE|TH
ON RESUBM|SS|ON
POWERFUL SERMON AT PRESBY-
TERRAIN CHURCH YESTERDAY
ON WHlSKEY TRAFFIC.

At the Presbyterian church yester-
day morning Rev. Weith preached
against the bill to be voted on at the
November election to resubmit the
question OIL regulating the liquor traf-
fic, the proposed bill is an amendment
TO the constitution that Will grant II
cense for the sale of liquor in the
state of Oklahoma and is incorporated
in eighteen subdivisions.
The Presbytery at its recent con-
ference refused to concur in the ac-
ton of the Anti-Saloon League but
as an organization, propose to wage
relentless war upon the proposed bill.
In his sermon Sunday, Rev. Weith
discussed the bill by sections and ad-
vanced reasons why 1t should be de-
feated at the polls. In the first place,
he said, the bill would be harder TO
enforce than the present law, because
IL is more NOlhp4lNdltN, III tht hSAN
place, It would absolutely disfranchise
the farmer, as only those living in
incorporated towns or cities would be
allowed to vote on the liquor question.
Third, It would disfranchise any town
that voted wet from again voting on
the subject for five years or indefinite
ly, and prevents the revoking of IL
cense by system of appeals that can
hardly be overcome, and then too 1t
permits the sale of liquor in hotels
and restaurants as well as saloons and
is an inducement TO road houses and
other resorts, he said that the propos-
ed bill was better for the bootlegger
than the present law and offered un-
limited opportunities for graft in the
issuance of licenses to the mayor and
the excise board.
Rev. Weith says that he is ready
and willing to take the stump In de-
fence of his principles and issues this
challenge to any one in the state TO
take issue with him on the subject.

our people that South Ardmore Bap-

Your missionary feels TO rejoice
now, after several months, with a bur-

the fact that both Of our churches IN

slack and cooperate with these ser
wants God has sent us, by His grace
we will take Ardmore for God. We
hope some time in the near future, to
organize a band OF Soul-Winners and
make a charge for God, our Savior,
for the salvation of lost men and wom'

Let all the workers pray nightly,

may win them for Christ.

MAYOR COTNER
AS A BOOSTER
TELLS OKLAHOMA CITY PEOPLE
THAT ARDMORE ASPHALT is
BEST ON EARTH.

James A. Cotner, mayor of Ard
more, Okla, is at the Lee-IIuckins
hotel When seen in reference tC
the Ardmore asphalt streets which
are paved with native Oklahoma as
phalt, Mr.. Cotner said:
Main street was paved about four
years ago and has stood a severe
traffic without signs of wear. This
pavement came from the mines OF
the STRAIGHTFORWARD Asphalt company
now bidding on the Oklahoma City
paving, which has under contract
several additional streets at Ard
more. ] have visited Fort WORTH Par.
is, Texas, Kansas City, Chicago,
Washington and other places and
investigated the merits of different
paving materials and after complete
investigation, | am Of the opinion
that the Ardmore product is superior
to any btuminous pavement that is
being laid in this country. The Ard
more asphalt pavement is especially
desirable for southern cities from
the fact that 1t does not get soft in
the summer like the artificial as
phalt, and stands heavy traffic bet
ter than other asphalt. | notice
that this opinion is held by promi-
nent asphalt experts all over the
country excepting those who are
directly in the employ of the as
phalt trust"
Mr.. Cotner believes in oklahoma
material for Oklahomans, but that
Ardmore asphalt is able to stand
on its own merits without regard
to sentiment, and he believes that
the future development of this in
dustry is going to make Ardmore

"REAL THRILLS"
How Bad Do You Want to See the
Bird MANI"

Would you like to see an aviator
aviate?
If so, gallop around TO the COM
mercial club rooms and hand in
your subscription Of ten plunks and
over to Secretary Mccoy and when
the necessary wind" has been
raised, why there will come gentle
man along who says he can give
you some real thrills" in the ayia-
ton line. Now the manager of this
aviator" is very modest in his
requests. After recounting the many
advantages the city will derive from
IN advertising standpoint by hold
ing this meet, and calling attention
to the fact that the whole worll
has It's eyes focused on the flying
machine he ends in true press
agent style by focusing his own eyes
on the main chance" and says for
the paltry sum of $500, he will al
low his aviator" TO aviate in this
city for one day; for one thousand
dollars for each additional day he
is here we can go as far as We like.
Now, isn't that somewhat thrilling
to begin with? $500 change in and
one thousand per with the sky as
the limit 0oke), say, don't you know
that it will be dead easy to raise
the money to purchase the thrills?
He further states that the aviator
whom he has the honor o, managing
holds the WORLDS motor boat record,
as an extra inducement to get
the $500 per day, but where the
connection between a motor boat
and an airship comes in he leaves
to conjecture.
Ardmore may hold an aviation
meet this fall. but it has been ru-
mored that the event would be post
poned for a time.

HAD YOU THOUGHT OF 1T?
Some Figures About the Apple Crop
and Also Apple Pies.


Spokane, Wash, Sept. 25.-Some
genius in Spokane with a taste for
statistics has figured out that the
crop harvested on commercial apple
orchards in the state of Washington
this year would mean about eight
apples, in an equal distribution for
every man, woman and child in the
United States, according TO the es-
innate OF the 1910 census. The yield
is placed at $500 carloads, which
growers and buyers say is con-
servative estimate. There are $50
boxes in car and the average
box contains 1872 apples, making a to-
tai of 775,2i0000 apples. 1t is also
figured that if the apples harvested
in the United States this year were
converted into pies, the army OF
bakers required to do the work would
turn out 6,25O,OOO,OO0 pies, which,
placed side by side, would make a
path of almost 975,000 miles, or
enough to girdle the earth 80 times.
The total weight of this mountain of
pastry, including flour, lard and
other ingredients, is estimated at g.
250.000,000 pounds, while the total
cost OF the pies, if sold at five cents
a quarter is placed at $3.50, 100000.
