State Development Commission Sees
a Million More In Crop

When it was announced that Secre.
tary Caldwell Of the Oklahoma Devel.
orment commission had deputized
Owen E. Lewis, the broomcorn expert,
to go to western Oklahoma and help
the farmers raise a broomcorn crop
that would sell for million dollars
more than the 1912 crop brought, an
other important step was taken BY
the commission in its statewide move
ment for bigger and better crops
In sending Mr. Lewis to the broom
corn section of the state, the com
mssios did not expect him to merely
talk to few Of the raisers of broom
corn. The FIRST act Of the broomcorn
campaign will be to TEST THE
SEED
The farmer who planted brooi1corn
seed last year did not, as a general
rule, test all Of his seed. Hence. he
probably planted some seeds that
never germinated If they didn't
terminate. then the yield was short,
and the land did not produce the
amount Of corn of which it was cap
able
If every seed that is planted this
year is a perfect seed, then Oklahoma
will produce a broomcorn crop that
will be a revelation. Oklahoma now
raises more broomcorn than all Of
the other states combined, and Okla
homa pr poses a farther expansion.
Since Mr. Lewis is one Of the oast
broomcorn experts Of the nation, his
work Is certain to be OF great benefit
to the raisers OF this crop and. il he
gets thorough cooperation from the
bankers merchants and farmers OF
western Oklahoma in the matter Of
testing seeds, proper cultivation, and
the right kind OF marketing methods
then it looks like the broomcorn rails
ers OF Oklahoma will get million
dollars more for their 1913 crop o.
broomcorn than they would If theJ
overlook this opportunity which tn,
Development Commission has provid
cd for them.

Does a bad man feel pain more
than a man who leads an honest life?
1t has been stated apropos the de-
cision of the British house of COM
mons to punish white slavers by fog
ging, that by happy provision Of
nature the skin appears actually to
become more sensitive as the moral
sense becomes deadened. A doctor
said that as a rule those who are
criminally inclined bear pain or bod
lily suffering of any kind extremely
badly. Men who are quite hardened
on the moral side of their character
seem to get more self-conscious about
their physical feelings than ordinary
men do. A man who is morally lax
leads a loose life and destroys his
nervous system. He feels pain much
more acutely than man of average
temperate habits and a clean con-
science.-The Argus.

FOOTBALL NOTES.

1t is strange, but nevertheless true,
that all the critics who selected an
All-Eastern or an All-America foot
ball team for the past season prefaced
their remarks with an apology. Don't
of the fact that less than half of the
same saw their selections in action.
An impossibility: to find any two
men with opinions of their own who
will agree on the ranking of college
football teams for 1913 Take your
choice; therefore; the field is unlim-
tied.
Eli Yale looks to have elected a ca
pable leader in Talbot, who played left
tackle, last year. Now it is about time
to hear something from the Crimson.
Will it be Talbot versus Briekley at
New Haven, next year, or who?
1t may be "a great pity that this
or that great football team of the East
cannot play the best football teams
of the West, or that all the strongest
elevens in the same sections cannot
meet but the day win never come

is now, unless by some fortunate
chance two acknowledged sectional
champions should happen to come to-
gether in the regular course of events.
There seem to be a general tendency
to give Harvard the championship of
the East, but there are four teams in
the West that have many partisans in
their favor for titular honors in that
section. Chicago won the Conference
championship, but Notre Dame, Mich
igan and Nebraska had teams as
worthy of serious considera ton. Ne
braska and Notre Dame are knock
ing for admission to the Western Con-
ference and will know their fate, Sat
urday, when the conference meets in
Chicago. If they are admitted it will
simplify the situation somewhat in
the West, but Michigan will still be
outside the ring, and some other col
lege may develop strong team worthy
of consideration in ranking teams.

FAMOUS FLOWER GARDENS.
Why Roses of the Rhone Valley Are,
Known All Over the World.

The famous rose gardens of Lyons,
France, owe their excellence largely to
light soil, an abundance of sunshine
and the proper amount of moisture.
From time immemorial local resarians
have taken advantage of the favoring
conditions until skill and interest in
the industry have made the roses Of
the Rhone valley known throughout
the parks and gardens of the world.
The ground where the roses are
chiefly cultivated is ON the outskirts
Of the city. 1t is fiat, devoid of shade
trees and protected only by high walls
1T the confines Of the property. The
rose plants are set out for commercial
purposes IN straight rows, sometimes
hundred feet long, the smaller plants
six inches apart, with about ten inches
between the rows, while the larger
grated or budded varieties are insert
ed ten to twelve inches apart, with
eighteen inches between rows.
Nearly all of the plants are out of
doors. The greenhouses for a rose gar
den of fifteen acres do not number
more than two, averaging thirty feet
in length 1t is only in exceptional
winters that the plants have to be COW
cred. Sometimes the tops of the older
plants are rather loosely bound in,
straw. In every large commercial rose
garden of Lyons hundreds of eglantine
rose plants are kept to a single stalk
for grating. These are usually gather
ed by peasants in the woods or on un-
cultivated land and sold to the rose
growers.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

VALUE OF VISIONS.
Dreams of the Thinkers Are What
Lead the Way to Progress.

There is a certain little Scripture
Tint is not noticed much 1t is this,
where there is no vision the people
perish" That would be true even if 1t
We're not in the Bible. It is true of an
Individual as we'll as a people There
must DO hope. an aim, an upward
lock, q realization of better things
ahead to awaken aspiration and quick
en- erdeavor. So many people don't
have this. They live from hand to
mouth and never look out from where
they are standing. That's the animals
way. They don't dream. They have
no visions.
There are communities sometimes
that have no inspiring outlook. They
settle down to amusements, prisons,
politics, sports and the passing show,
bnt never unfold the future and see in
1t the nob!er life. They have nothing
to live for but today. There is no in
spiration in tomorrow. They buy and
sell and talk and laugh and eat ana
drink and 60 to bed, and tomorrow is
the same. There is no vision, no nigh
mark to press forward to, no heavenly
vision, as ST. Paul expresses it.
Now, there is something in vision,
or the Bible would not say the lack OF
It would destroy a people. This lack
constitutes the dry rot we hear ONO
incentive, no life, no hope. And when
an individual gets that way ana sees
no visions he is a dead duck.-ohio

MINUTE MEN, ARE SCARCE.
Wireless TeIeeraphy Practced Very
Extensively by British Flag Hag-
gers.

How many readers of Answers
knows what a minute man" is?
He is an army signaler who is so
skilled at his work that, with the or
binary signaling flag, he can send"
the seventy-two letters, signs and
figures which the Morse code contains
in sixty seconds. AS some of the let
tiers have to be expressed by four
movements of the flag, YOU can guess
that he has to be pretty smart. AS
a matter of fact, he has to jerk his
flag to and fro at an average rate Of
five times a second
There is a tremendous amount of
competition fer distinction" said q
minute man to a London Answers
representative the other day, but 1t
is distinction so hard to obtain
that minute men are very scarce.
1.-THE regiment which has more than
one or two of them in it's body of
signalers is lucky indeed.
LAS matter of fact" he went on
though people know so little about
them, signalers are of the greatest
importance to an army in times of
war.
Telegraph wires are rarely avail
able and field telegraphs are much
too clumsy for use when a large
stretch of country has to be covered
by mobile forces.
I'm war the signaler has a hot time.
He has to choose rising ground for
his work He cannot take advantage
of cover as other troops can. The
flash of his hello or the waving of his
flag makes a fine target and the enc
my know that it is good policy to
shoot signalers
"One signaler l know who was at
tached to mounted infantry corps
had three hello glasses broken by bull
lets while he was sending message
in South Africa.
Another man had his flag shot
from his hand on two different occa-
sions.
But as rule, unless regiment is
is rather TO be envied. 1t is true he
gets no extra pay. The war office
does not think much of him, and his
only cash reward is a bonus for pass
ing his annual examination.
But as rule, unless a regiment Is
