EQUIP ENGINES To
CARRY FIRE HOSE
M. K. & T. BELIEVE BIG LOSSES
OF COTTON IN TRANSIT WILL
BE PREVENTED.

precaution and preventive against the
fires that frequently occur along the
line and which destroy lots Of cotton
and other combustible materials either
in the yards or while in transit, the
Missouri, Kansas a Texas Railway
company is making arrangements to
equip 100 or more of its engines with
fire fighting apparatus. Each engine
will carry 500 feet Of hose which can
be quickly connected with the injec-
tor on the engine which will force the
water the full length of the train if
necessary, or it can be used in the
yards or around cotton congresses.
Successful experiments have alrea-
dybeen made with this equipment. and
while the Katy has taken the initia-
tive in the matter the experiment is
being watched with interest by other
roads in the south and southwest, and
~ 10 lhcly lldl lut Stutllle Will SOOu

Thousands of dollars worth of cot
ton is burned up annually on rail
roads while in transit to gulf ports.
Heretofore the railroads have had no
way to eXtinguish the fires and the
cotton has been dumped off the cars
wherever it caught fire. Disastrous

MONEY IN FARMING.
What Mr. AIverson Thinks Of Winter
Barley as Pasture and Feed Crop.

What Mr.. AIverson Thinks Of Winter
Barley as Pasture and Feed Crop.
J. S Alverson was here today from
Glenn exhibiting some very fine bar
ley seed which he raised this year.
He has about 200 bushels Of the seed
for sale. Mr. Alverson says wiuter
barley is a better winter pasture than
either wheat or rye, it makes about
as much to the acre as oats, it ma.
lures two weeks earlier than wheat
and Is surer crop and he would
rather have one bushel of it to feed
than one bushel of corn.
Mr.. Alverson marketed last week
seven head OF 1O-mourhs-old hogs to
King of this city. The hogs
had never been fed anything but
barley and alfalfa. The seven head
weighed out s136.95 and he has a
contract with the Ardmore firm to de-
iver them q load each week.

on "lmmoraIity" Basis,

Washington, Sept. 29.-DeclariLg
that the Bible should be excluded
from the mails ON the ground that
it contains immoral matter, a certain
body of American citizens has sent a
petition to Postmaster General Burle-
son urging him to take the action
they desire
Some of the department officials to-
day pointed out the fact that the
denial of mail privileges to alleged
Objectionable books, pictures and 9TH
er publications frequently has been
the means of securing a great amount
Of free advertising and enormous sales
for the government barred matter
They laughingly refused to commit
themselves when asked whether they
thought it could help increase the
sale OF te Bible if its passage through
the mails were to be denied

the warmest elections il has ever held

day. 1t IS stated that the bona Is
sue of $4,000 for the building of Il

ranging from 45 to Go votes. The
election was close but the bon Is lave
carried by a safe majority. Much
credit for the successful election is
due to the News-Democrat which
Waged hard-fought battle from the
day the election was called until the
last vote was cast. The Socialist
Herald, published at Madil made a
stubborn fight for the bonds. Some
Of the papers in the county we're
against the issue.
The bonds proposed for bridges to
cost $4,000 have probably carried but
the contest is SO close that it will
not be known until the last vote is
counted
Madill and Marshall county and its
press are to be congratu-
lated upon the outcome. Marshall
county needed a court house with its
broad acres Of fertile lands and it's

CLEVER SCHEME
TO SHIP WH|SKEY
is NlPPED IN BUD BY A DEPUTY
MARSHAL AT THE TOWN OF MI
AMI.

Muskogee, Okla, September %
One of the cleverest and boldest
schemes to ship whisky into the Indian
country was nipped in the bud by
Deputy L. S. Marshal Carl Garman
at Miami. AS a result Jack Street
is in the federal prison here and IS
cases of whisky are held for confis,
cation.
Garman was proving around the
Miami railroad yards watching for
shipments Of liquor from Joplin. He
noticed car that had a horse, a man
and about a half a carload of hay on
it. 1t was sort of a queer combina-
tion, so Garman asked the man in the
car what about it. The latter said that
he owned the race horse he had in
the car, that he was on his way to
the races at Tulsa and that he was
taking the hay along for the horse be-
cause he couldn't buy hay in Tulsa
The horse didn't look like much of a
race horse and the officer also saw
harness marks on him. But when he
saw the horse was rough shod, he
knew there was something wrong He
decided to take a look at the hay.
The first bale he pulled out showed
that there was Just one tier of bales
securely packed across the car and
back of that were stacked the 70 |
cases OF liquor.

 Etta Barber: l agree with you and think children are caused much un- pleasantness by their clothing. No woman or child is at their best when conspicuously garbed, either way. I was an odd one myself and suffered accordingly.

HOW TO MAKE CORN FEATHERS

Dear Cornerites, One and All: You don't know how pleased I am to be one of your Sisters.
 Now I am going to tell you how I joined the Corner. When 1 was com ing home from shopping one afternoon I stopped at one of my neighbor's. She is so good and motherly you could not help but love her, and Pm sure you will be only too glad to welcome her. Our conversation was about the Social Corner, and how she would like to write if she could write a good letter
 said, Surely you can."
 So she said if I would write she would.
 Now I'm afraid she won't keep her word. Am so glad I joined the Cor ner, for I enjoyed meeting the Sisters at the fair.
 We must thank the Editor for his kindness and the use of the tent, as it was very much appreciated.
