Buttons to Match.

One very awkward feature Of the pre-
vailing fancy for buttons is that they are
SO apt to snap OF. even when they have
been sewn with the greatest care. This
happens specially in the case OF buttons
with stalks. or with the popular crystal
varieties. which have way OF cutting
their thread 50 that unless they are con-
tinually watched one can hardly 60 for
an outing with them without coming back
minus at least one button. and that Is
enough to spoil the whole appearance of
the costume IL another cannot be found
to match IL and take its place.

there is nothing better than brown holland
with a green lining. This is color, how

lining of thin parasols on account Of it's

The finest of laces are used this season,

SECURE PURE RRooMcoRN SEED
AND DON'T RAISE MORE THAN
CAN BE WELL TAKEN
CARE OF.
(By Geo. Wilkins, Lindsay, okIa.)

Broomcorn seed should be obtained
from that which has been treated and
free from smut, and has not been In
contact with cane, kaffir corn, and 9th
er crops of the same family.
Seed should be tested before plant
ing, and this can be done by planting
about 100 seeds in a box or in cotton
and keep them damp, and as a rule
about % seeds will sprout. Ground
should be prepared the same way as.
for any other crop in sod or old ground,
planting about 80 to 100 seeds per rod
on the best bottom ground, and on the
upland from 80 to so per rod.
Cultivation should begin when the
corn is about four inches high, and
continuing to cultivate as often as It
rains or as the ground requires to
keep the broomcorn in good condition,
until 1t gets about shoulder high.
Harvesting should begin as soon as
the seed gets in the bloom, and about
the time the bloom begins to fall
while the seed is in the milk. Table
and cut 1t at the same time you thresh
after it has about II to 24-hOurs sun,
and place. IL possible, in sheds built
for curing. Should the weather be
damp or rainy 1t should be threshed as
soon as cut so as to get the best color
obtalnable. as the color is what brings
the price. Bulking the corn produces a
better sample and heavier bales.
Working along these lines, find that
broomcorn has ready market, and
has brought all the way from $4,000
to $4,000 per ton for the past six
years.
Get the best seed obtainable TO
CARELESS Of price, so that good stand
il procured. then cut and harvest at
the right time. and not raise more
than can be taken care Of with rea
sonable conditions.

sRooMcoRN A VERY PROFITABLE
CROP.
10y James |. wIneInger, Rankin, Ok

Broomcorn is one Of the most pro-
fitable crops that can be produced in
this section of Oklahoma, however,
do not believe that any one man
should plant too large a crop, as
thirty or forty acres well taken care
of will bring more profit than a
larger crop poorly handled.
The ground should be listed good
and deep early in the spring, and.
leave 1t in this condition until plant,
ing time, which is May 1th to June
LIST. Then It should be double listed,
and planted with about seventy seeds
to the rod. BY this means it gives
the seed an opportunity to get ad-
yanced ahead of all weeds. After the
corn is we'll out OF the ground 1t
should be narrowed so as to kill the
weeds which start the same time as
the broomcorn After this, cultiva-
ton should be done according to con-
ditions, and believe it will be found
by using the above method that the
cultivation Is greatly reduced as COM
pared to level planting.
Pure seed is one of the most i'm
portant features in brOOmcorn grow
ing and would advise the farmers tC
send to some good reliable seed grow
er and secure either dwarf or stand
ard broomcorn as is desired. AlsC
secure the seedsmans guarantee thai
! the seed Is free from smut. Under nc
condition should seed be planted thai
has been produced in this section, as
broomcorn mixes readily with cane
kaffir corn, and milo maize.
In purchasing seed from seed deal
ers, they frequently represent that they
handle a good mixture when it is
nothing but q bad mixture of cane
kaffir corn and milo maize.
Broomcorn should be seeded and
put in shed the same day it is bal
ed in order to secure the best results
as shed cured brush always brings
fancy price, and the expense of har
vesting is no greater than to cure ii
the seed.

State Prim airy Board
Adopts Mascot

Atlanta. Jan. 13.-The state prl-
son board has adopted a mascot
and it has already become the pride
of the capital. There is a certain
appropriateness about it, too, for
the mascot is a tiny hound pup,
a little black and brown bundle
whose ears are bigger than his body
1t may be a blood hound. | tmay
be rabbit dog. Nobody knows Its
pedigree, for it is a founding.
Chairman Bob Dawson arrived at
the capital earlier than usual this
morning, and saw the little thing
budding in the corner on the top
most step of the capital stairs, evl-
IDENTIFY left there by somebody, for
the little thing could no more have
climbed the steps than it could
have climbed the side Of a house.
P. A. Methin, of the agriculture
department, who knows a lot
about dogs, believes that the pups
own mother brought it there by the
nap of the neck, and left it to be
adopted by the state, just as mothers
sometimes leave their little ones on
a doorstep.
But that as it may, the whole
capital force is interested in the
pup, and in day or two there will
be a christening.
If he ever wants to 60 any where
when he gets older, the state rail
road commission has already agreed
to suspend all rules and let him
ride free.

yesterday afternoon that the famous
prisoner would be removed imme-
di4tely from the army hospital at
Fort Mcpherson, to Hot Springs.
Ark, where he will take the baths.
Although pardon has been with
held, Morse has been materially
and physically just as we'll since he
was removed to Fort Mcpherson
as he would have been with an ac-
tual pardon. All prison rules were
relaxed. He was permitted to see
his family and other visitors when
ever the physicians would allow ii;
he was given whatever he wanted
to read, whatever he could safely
eat, everything, in fact that he
could have obtained in the best no
tel or hospital.
Now the doctors have decided
that he needs the treatment of Hot
Springs and he will be taken, either
in a Pullman, drawing room or
private car.
