Bows Corn Clubs.

W. D. Bentley of Yukon, Okla,
distric. United States agricultural
agent, stopped in this city a few
hours upon his return from Madill
where he has been to investigate
the reported Yields obtained by some
of the boys who were competitors in
the boys corn club organizations.
Mr. Bentley stated that many Of
the reported yields showed that the
boys had averaged from 80 to over
one hundred bushels Of corn to the
acre. Inasmuch as these yields
sounded rather large it was thought
best to investigate the matter rathe
er thoroughly. Mr.. Bently says that
while the boys may have been a
little lax in their manner of COM
plying with all the requirements of
the contest, yet ne is satisfied that
they had the yields which they
claimed, with the possible exception
of one lad who gathered a part OF
his crop and estimated the balance.
This boy, from what he gathered
estimated his yield at one hundred
and five bushels to the acre, but
an actual measurement showed
something over ainety. A remarkable
yield as it was

The terms by which provision is
made for the needs of age, illness.
sickness, accident and death, may be
summarized as follows:
Pensions: Male employees wh)
have reached the age of sixty years
and who have been twenty years Or
more in service may retire on pea
sions. They may be retired at the
option of the company when they have
reached the age of fifty five years
and have been twenty-five years OF
more in service. The pension age
of female employees is in each case
five years younger than that of mae
employees, an emrlyee who has been
thirty years in service regardless Of
age may be pensioned on approval or
president of the company.
The amount of the pension is auto
matically based on the years of SER
vice and the amount OF pay, and will
be one per cent of the average an
nual pay for ten years, multiplied
by the number of years Of service.
Therefore, a man who had been thir-
ty years in service would get 80 per
cent of tho average salary which he
had been receiving during his last
ten years of service. No pension will
be less than ($2O 0O) twenty dollars
a month

work for the company, the employee

PROVENCE.

Provence. Okla, Nov. 1.-THE
election passed quietly in our burs
and most everyone seems very well
satisfied.
The democrats tell us to expect
great things in the future, now that
we have Woodrow Wilson for our
next president, and the republicans
and socialists say nothing, but have
kind of a wait and see" look on
their faces, so we are living in
hopes while we watch and wait.
The farmers are most al waiting
on their cotton to open now since
the big frost last week killed ali
the leaves on the stalk. Some think
that a great many of the bolls are
also killed. If they are the next
picking will be rather ligAt and the
yield will not be so heavy as was
first expected.
Our school will begin the 18th Of
this month.
Rev. Dixon of Atdmore preached
for us Sunday.
We are having high windy weather
with indications of rain.
Miss Myrtle Jones of HoXbar
spent last week here, the guest of
Mrs Denham.

good.

Eats Freely But
Has No Dyspepsia

Takes : Mild Laxative With Good
Pecsin and lnsures his Comfort
and Pleasure.
Fortunate is the man who can eat
anything without suffering the tor
lures Of dyspepsia, but as few are so
fortunate care should be taken in the
matter of diet. Eating slowly, mas
ticating the food thorougyhl and TAX
ing short walk after the heavy meal
of the day viii do much towards as
ssting digestion. Any grown-up per-
son ought to know the peculiar foods
that do not agree and these sholld
be avoided.
When these common sense aids
fail, the next thing TO do is to take
a mild digestive tonic with laxative
properties, and there is none better
than Dr.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin. 1t
contains the greatest Of all aids to
digestion, good pepsin. 1t has other
ingredients that act mildly on the
bowels. and combined it forms a CON-
binatlon for the relief Of dyspepsia
or indigestion that is unsurpassed.
It's action is to tone and strengthen
the stomach and bowel muscles so
that they can again do their work
naturally without outside aid, and
when that happy moment comes all
medicine can be dispensed with. II is
the best remedy obtainable for any
disorder Of the stomach, liver and
bowels, for dyspepsia, constipation,
bliousness headaches drowns'ness
after eating, gas on the stomach, etc .
