heavily laid upon them If they had
taken this precaution.
"A great many people were under
the misapprehension that il was ex-
pected that all meadows and pastures
lands should be burnt off II Is only
intended TO ask farmers and other in
terested parties to destroy tufts of
grass and other hiding places of the
chinch bug. Those who have given
this subject any thought know where
these hiding places prevail and know
that these spots can be burned off
without injury to surrounding land
and without harm TO nasture land
Road overseers should see that all
such places along the highways are
destroyed. as should the officials OF
railroads along their right-of-ways. To
make this day Of practical value every
man should do his duty. II is OF little
effect for assingle man in ,neighbcr-
hood to observe this proclamation. II
his neighbors neglect to do so.
"Wherefore. l. Lee Cruce. Governor
of the State OF Oklahoma. designate
Thursday, December Is, 1913, as a
