ERAolcATlNe CATTLE TICKS.

The taking up of the cattle ranges
The taking up of the western cattle
ranges by homesteaders, resulting in
a shortage in the supply of beef cattle
for consumption by the millions of
people largely dependent upon cattle
grown in that region, has brought
about rise in price of steers at the
great abattoirs OF the country and a
decided increase in cost of meat to
the consumer in the cities.
Naturally also, it has caused both
the growers and buyers to look about
for fresh pastures for the herds upon
which their prosperity and business
depends.
The secretary of agriculture years
ago saw the inevitable crisis and turn
ed his attention to providing ample
sustenance for the stock needed to
supply the market, and which could
no longer be furnished by the west
The locality was found in the south
and southwest, but that country was
infested with an insect that made cat
tie raising Improbable, if not impos-
sible So for the past six years the
bureau of animal industry has been
conducting tick eradication work in
all but one of the tates of the infected
region, IN cooperation with the state
authorities, and has freed 62,64S
square miles of the Texas fever-tick
and relieved that area of the restric-
tons placed by rational quarantine
on the shipment of cattle to other Sec
tions.
In a considerable additional area the
work of eradication is well under way,

Auousr-4IsToRIc MONTH

OF al the months of the year August
is the most historic. With the Indians
and with natives of northern climates
the month is properly recognized as
the month of the harvest moon. It Is
then that the crops are garnered and
the harvest is laid by.
But aside from this fact tile month
is important for the historical events
that have been recorded.
August is the month In which John
the Baptist lost his head and Cleo
patra took to her bosom the asp which
caused her death. Bozzars and Mel
son both fell in the hour of victory in
this month of August.
Ancient and modern history rings
with the sterling events of men in this
month 1t witnessed the start of Cor
tez for Mexico The murder of the
princes in the tower occurred In Aug
ust. No page of history is so satur-
ated with the shedding of innocent
blood than this same murder of the
helpless innocents of London's tower.
The famous seven years war was
started in August Poland succumb.
ed to the influence of Austrian power.
These are events of historic import.
ance, but II is not only in records Of
battle and boodshed that the month
is notable The printing press was
first tested in August and the first
publication of any value was produced
in the same month that the priatIrg
press was given to tae world.
1t is interesting to review the other
achievements OF science which are re-
corded in this month Marconi and
Edison both gave 70 the world useful
Inventions. The wireless, the great
saving factor OF marine traffic. was
first patented and announced IN Aug
ust, an dthe incandescent light was
discovered by Edison in the harvest

Accepting the democratic nomina-
ton, Woodrow Wilson delivered a no
table speech, setting forth his ideas
on the vital issues of the day He de-
cIared in favor of an immediate re-
vision downward OF the tariff, "un-
hesitatingly and steadily downward"
and declared that the high cost of lv-
Ing Is not SO much due to the tariff
as 1t Is to the private understanding
between the middlemen, who stand
between the producer and the con-
sumer. He asserted that prevailing
prices are not fixed by the competl-
tions of the market or by the ancient
law OF supply and demand which Is to
befound stated in all the primers of
economics, but by private arrange
ments with regard to what the supply
should be and agreements among the
producers themselves He declared in
favor of legislation which would make
ouAi ihABODoApiC III AhC iu-
ture. Governor Wilson declared that
next to the task of revising the tariff
and reducing the high cost of living
is the great task 'of protecting our
people and our resources and of keep
ing open to the whole people the doors
of opportunity through which they
must, generation by generation, pass
III they are to make conquest of their
fortunes in health, in freedom. in
peace, and in contentment. In the
performance of this second great duty
We are face to face with questions OF
conservation and of development,
questions for forests and water powers
and mines and waterways, of the build
ing of an adequate merchant marine"
Governor Wilson is without peer in
the art of expressing economic ideas
clearly, so that his address of accept
ance makes political document Of
much weight and merit.

JoKED IN FACE OF DEATH
Last Words of Titanlc's Purser, Nc

and Cheerful.

Charles Brown, the English come
dian, lost a number of friends In the
Titanic tragedy. He knew most Of the
officers on the illfated ship, and the
purser, McElroy, had been his COM
rade for years A recent letter from
England brought to the actor the last
words Of McElroy-an au revoir OF
life which is notable for It's calm Brit.
ish courage.
The fourth officer, Marzials, who
went down with the ship and was
picked up by boat. is the man who
testifes to McElroy's behavior. A
small group of the Titanic stsff was
waiting for the final plunge The wa
ter was tapping the deck at their very
feet and the end was merely a ques-
tion Of a very few minutes. McElroy
turned to his companions with smile
and shook hands with them, saying
well, good-by. fellows; It looks like
sand for breakfast tomorrow"
THAT was typical of McElroy." says
Brown. "He was one Of the merriest,
bravest men who ever lived 1t was
like him to have his little joke in the

Young women and old had given the

Eschew the things you Ike the best

swallow down with eager zest. the
things that you despise Fill up with
greens and milk and bran and toasted
graham bread. and you will be a
healthy man, provided you're not dead.
Health is the thing without price
It surely IS the goods, so read the safe
aud sane advice Of men like Hutchy-
woods, and bathe yourself ten times
a day in shredder gasoline, and eat
three kinds of clover hay, and eat
them when they're green. Be sure and
wear a cheeseeloth suit when you are
on the street, and have a screen door
in each boot to yentilate your feet.
Remember, water should be fried be-
fore it's fit to drink; If germs and
microbes get inside, they'll put you
on the blink. Engage a specialist you
will to manicure your teeth, and fumi-

1 The guaranty law certainly scored a
triumph when the Oklahoma state
bankers III session At Oklahoma City
July 80. gave it their unqualified IN
dorsement. These nanksrs have
borne the fun burden of the tremend-
Gus losses in OklanoEa during the
period since statehood. yet they rec
ognize the soundness Of the principle
that the depositor sho'ld have abso-
lutte assurance that his money viii he
waiting 70 rhim when he calls for it.
However changes in the law that
would lessen this burden on the state
bankers would only be- just. Statis-
ticians have estimated that the losses
Of the past fifty years equal about one
seventeenth OF one PEI cent of thu de-
posits Of all the banks IN the UIited
States. The loss in Oklahoma during
the first years of the operation OF the
guaranty law were far in excess Of
this amount. However, this law was
enacted at a time when the state was
lin a most unsettled condition as were
the financial affairs of the whole na-
tion. This was new state. Men
from all parts of the globe had come
into it and some of them We're not
bankers and some were plain crooks
who came here to take advantage Of
the new conditions to build up de-
posits and loot the guaranty fund. THIS
condition has passed The banking
situation has somewhat cleared. The
banking board has gained the wisdom
OF most trying experience and is
prepared to thwart such methods in
the future so that the losses will be
less. We believe that one-ffth of one
per cent on the deposits Of the state
banks each year will pay all losses
and create fund that will take care
Iof future losses. In view of this we
believe that the maximum assessment
for any one year should not be more
than one-fifth of one per cent. Then
liz any extraordinary losses occur let
the difference be paid out of the gen.
eral revenues of the state. This will
give the tax payers more direct in
terest in the enforcement of the bank
ing laws and will serve to assist in
furnishing violations. 1t IS not unjust
to ask the public to bear portion of
the burden of the guaranty of deposits.
They are beneficiaries to large de-
gree through the operation of this
law. A blow to the financial strue-
ture of the state is a blow to every
tax payer and we believe the people
of Oklahoma, if made to thoroughly
understand an amendment to this eff
feet, will accept their share of the
burden. The banks, however, are the
chief benefciaries and must carry the
greater part of the burden. Bank
