Monday, July 8, was the forty ninth
anniversary of Governor Lee Cruces
birth. AS the chief executive Of Ok
lahoma feels that he has reached the
age of discretion, he does not mind
telling his age. Monday evening the
governor and several members of the
Cruce family celebrated his birthday
with al old fashioned Kentucky din
ner party at O'Clock. Those pres
ent were Mr.. and Mrs. A. c. Cruce and
family, Miss Mary Cruce of Edmond,
Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. X. Cruce and baby
daughter, Miss Lorcna Cruce and Miss
Ada Bennett. This event also marked
the debut into society Of the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. X. Cruce. She is
the governors only grandniece and is
Just four months old. The dinner par

was entirely informal in its nature
Friday evening DR.. and Mrs. A. f.
Davenport, 500 East Park Place, gave
a birthday party for Governor Cruce.
The decorations were all suggestive of
the Fourth of July. Mrs. Davenport
presented Governor Cruce with a

And it matches the chestnut brown

to a depth Of sever feet. The width
of the kiln Is eight feet at its greatest
breadth. sloping gently at the bottom.
A trench eighteen inches wide and one
foot deep is dug through the center.
at the base of the kiln. Across the
trench are placed pieces Of old cast
ings. which serve the purpose OF a
crate. The front and side walls OF the
kiln are built like a retaining wall.
The real walls are sometimes built
Of rock, but usually no wall is built,
as the sides Of the hill answer this
purpose. The general plan Of the kiln
is oval, both at the base and top.
Over the CRATE In the center Of the
kiln, at the bottom, is placed a layer
of coal Of sufficient size not to pass
through the openings. On the top Of
this layer Of coal ia placed the lime.
stone rock, which may vary in size
from 6 to IL inches in diameter. Alter

now introduced. and this is continued
until the kiln Is filed, leaving an open

enough to serve the purpose OF a fue.
When the kiln has been filled. 1t Is
covered with a layer Of fat rocks and
the front is then enclosed with rock
and sealed with mud. In the trench
at the bottom Of the kiln enough wood
is introduced to set fire to the coal.
The burning is continued for from two
to three days, with three to five days
for cooling.
A kiln Of these dimensions will fur

coal used to a charge Is 100 bushels

GETTING OVER BOIL WEEVIL
Clearly Demonstrated That Presence
Of Pest Will Never Prevent tho
Raising OF Cotton.

1t has been we'll demonstrated that
the boil weevil will never prevent the
raising Of cotton owe any consider
able ares Of the cotton belt. A suf-
iciently large area has already been
invaded by the weevils and afford ex-
per!enc, and observation under a
wide range Of varying conditions,
says Progressive Farmer. 1t Is not
likely that results will be materially
different In the area yet to be invad-
ed by the weevils than they have been
In some parts Of the territory already
infested.
It seems quite safe. therefor, to
conclude that for several years after
the weevils came into any section
cotton growing will be much lessened
and that the average man will fail to
make cotton Ola living basis. or
course, some will continue to make
cotton profitable, but they are 80 e1-
ceptional that they do not change
general conditions. But after a few
years the acreage cultivated In cotton
will begin to increase and the crop
will be made at a fair profit.
The latest example Of these results
Is to be found In Louisiana. The area
in cotton is increasing quite rapidly
and the yields per acre, as compared
with the first two or three years after
the coming Of the weevils, are also
increasing very markedly. This will
probably be the experience Of other
sections more recently or yet to be
infected.
But one important fact has been
developed by the boil weeyil expert
ence in louisiana, namely, that the
state can produce corn and other
crops %proitably. Perhaps the corn
crops of Louisiana have not been as
profitable al they would have been
had her citizens known better how
to use 1t for stock feeding and had
possessed better and more live stock
to which to feed their corn.
It Is doubtful II Louisiana ever be-
comes again the slave to cotton that
she once was, but she will in a few
years again take her usual place as
q factor In the production Of the
crops of the United States.

VEGETARIAN Dishes.

For those of our readers who find 1t
Measurable and profitable to subsist
on fruits, grains and vegetables, the
following suggestions may be helpful:
For breakfast food there Is none
more wholesome or tasty than wheat
cooked until it cracks open, served
with cream and sugar. Hominy and
rice are also good, as is farina and
cornmeal mush.
The numbers of soups that may be
prepared without meat are many, the
nourishing cream soups and those OF
nuts and vegetables are fully as salts
flying as soups prepared from meat.
Navy Bean Soup.-Cook together a
cup of beans and a slice Of onion; add
five GUIDE of water and simmer until
the bean may be put through a sieve.
Season and serve with the addition
of butter.
Tomato Bisque.-Take a cup OF
strained tomato, add five cups OF
water, a half cup Of peanut butter,
three.fourths OF a ~teaspoonful of salt.
Cook all together until well blended.
Salt, If needed, and serve.
Creole Soup.-Cook together a small
carrot, a small turnip, a large onion
two tablespoonfuls Of rice and a pint
of water. When all the ingredients
are tender rub through a sieve. Add
a cup OF tomato, season and serve.
Fruit Salad a la Creme.-To. a cup
of sliced pineapple add a cup OF seed
ed grapes and a large, banana. Over
this fruit pour the following dressing:
Cook together two tab%lespoonfuls each
of butter and flour, half a cup OF lem
on Juice, three beaten yolks, two table
spoonfuls of sugar, a cup of cream
and a fourth of a teaspoonful OF salt.
Cool and add whipped cream.
Make a circle of cold baked beans,
In the center put a stuf1ng OF bread
crumbs, seasoned with sage, onion
Juice, butter, salt and celery. MIX
with an egg and cover the stuffing
with the beans; bake and serve hot.

HELPFUL HINTS FOR SERVING
THE SICK.

Make the tray as attractive as pos.
sible, using dishes which look well
with the food, when it Is possible. II
dishes and food fight in color 1t may
seem Of no Importance. but often a
sick person Is peculiarly sensitive to
clashing colors. A we'll arranged tray
will appeal to the eye and a fckl
appetite Is often coaxed into eating
simply because the food looks good.
Fashions in foods change, but the
fashion Of serving food that Is hot, IN
hot covered dishes, iced foods In cold
dishes, is not likely to change.
II possible, serve the tea or coffee
in a pot, as an invalid, II able. likes
to pour out the beverage and sweeten
1t to taste. =
Never serve large amounts to an
invalid, or fill a glass more than two
thirds full: there are several reasons
for this. A glass Is not easily handled
If full, by an unsteady hand, and too
large an amount may discourage the
patient from even trying the dish, II
he thinks he Is expected to eat 1t all.
Even when a patient Is so recovered
that 1t Is necessary to feed him Law
ishly, one must use judgment In over
serving.
All food and dishes should be at
once removed from the sick Dom
Both food and water absorb impure
ties.
A bit of green or a flower or two on
the tray or in a small vase adds
much to its appearance.
Never under any circumstances,
without a physicians advice. give
liquor in any form. Many consider
egg nog ineffective without liquor. but
it may be much more so with fruit
juices or a dash of nutmeg or vanilla.
MuIIed Observation-Disclosures n

Protect Vines.

Most vine plants are victims Of
insects and 1t Is important that the
young vines should be protected until
they get a vigorous growth. A good
way to protect these tender plants is
to bend a twig or wire into the shape
Of an arch, thrust the ends into the
ground and over the arch place
mosquito netting. II early crops Of
cucumbers or other early vine-plants
are desired they a be protected by
a small wooden frame covered with
netting or closely woven wire.

Money in Mules.

There's a lot of money in mule rails
ing for the men who care to cross
good farm mares with jacks. The
boundaries Of Missouri DO not stop
the business Of mule breeding. There
Is about as little fuctuation in the
mule market as in any live stock
market, and good mules are always
as good as gold when you have them
ready to cash in.

Hope for Southern Farmer.

The farmers Of the North and west
have furnished US mules. horses, pork,
lard, and other farm products for
many years. A mighty change has
taken place in the boil weevil districts
Of the south, and the same change
must take place all over the cotton
belt when the weevil invades the cot
ton growing area. Diversified farming
and stock raising is the only hope for
the farmers in the weevil districts.
