peeted That the Building viii Be
Ready for Occupancy Before Next
Winter.

Articles of incorporation have been
filed with the county register for re-
cord chartering the Mt. Pleasant OPP
era House Co to build opera houses,
operate the same and any other bust
ness incident thereto.
One hundred shares at $25 each are
authorized to be Issued, and provision
is made for an increase In capital
stock in the usual manner, and the
company is provided with the usual
corporate powers.
The direct purpose of the organiza-
ton Is the erection of an opera house
in Mt. Pleasant, the opera house there
having been burned two years ago
when the First National Bank build
ing was destroyed by fire.
All public meetings since that time
have been held either in lodge rooms
of the city or at Hay-Long school
which latter place is rather remote
for practical purposes. 1t is under
stood that a lot Is in view and that
negotiations are even now pending
looking to the erection of an sudito
rum of the character mentioned, suf
fcient for all demands in the phos
phate city, and that work will likely
be begun at an early date with the
expectation of having it ready for oc
eupancy before fall.

The senate committee on appropri-
atoms wiped out entirely two import
ant itemss from the state university
bill, one Of which was an approprla-
ton for the erection of new science
hall building and the other for the

said, is badly needed at the institution
and the house has refused to concur
In the elimination of that item from

The bill passed by the senate and
which now goes to conference makes
an appropriation of $4,000 for the

100000 for heating plant and $1,000
for university extension work.
This, together with the money the
Institution will receive from section

bring the entire amount up to about
100000. If the science hall item is
ee-inserted the total appropriation
probably will be between 100000 and

CATTLE AT $40 PER HUNDRED
Beaver County Man Has Practical
Proof Of Value Of kafir.

Kafr has become as popular as II Is
reliable. While few ralsers OF this
crop feel hostile toward 1t, by reason
Of the low price of the grain, those
who feed kafr to cattle, hogs and
poultry are loud in praise Of the kaHr,
which grows in dry times, and ma
lures regardless Of climatic conditions.
Some farmers in Oklahoma sold
kafir last fall at 80 cents bushel,
and complained little that the price
was Improbable. Other farmers fed
great quantities of kafir, both as silage
and as grain, and enthusiastically an
nounce that the kafir netted 10 cents
a bushel.
From the Guymon Democrat, pub,
lished in the northwestern part Of the
state, where kaflr is making farmers
rich, we learn that j. H. Crlswell Of
Beaver county, recently marketed sew
eral carloads of cattle at $40 per
hundred, the animals having been pre-
pared for market with kafr.
This stookralser Is emphatic in his
statement that cattle and kafr form
combination that assures regular
income to the Oklahoma farmer.
Raise kafr; then raise more kanr.
But don't sell 1t; FEED 1T.

KEEP ANIMALS
. OUT Of ORCHARD
A FLOCK OF SHEEP MAY QUICKLY
RUIN BEARING FRUIT
TREES.
CATTLE CAUSE MOST DAMAGE
If Net Well Fed on Grain, They VIII
Eat OFF All the Young and
Tender Branches Of
the Trees

The practice of letting animals run
In orchards Is not considered by ex-
perienced fruit growers to be good
one. There are many exceptions, how
ever. have known instances where
horses ran In orchards for some time
and did little or no damage. They
may eat few leaves, but generally
confne themselves to grazing under
the trees. Cattle are more apt to
cause damage, particularly by horning
the branches, and they will eat more
Swigs as they are more voracious.
Sheep and pigs should never be al
lowed in an orchard, in my estimation,
although have known good fruit rails
ers to disagree with me.
The whole question of the damage
done by animals to the trees depends
upon how the animals are fed. Ami
mails which are highly fed; that Is,
given grain ration, may live In among
trees almost indefinitely and will not
bother the trees much, If any. Ami
mails which are quite hungry, and par
tlcularly animals which have been
kept in the barn without green feed
for some time, will chew many of the
twigs-and even the bark-off the
trees.
| once knew flock of sheep to
utterly ruin a bearing orchard In less
than day, The sheep had been kept
on dry hay during the winter, and
were turned into the orchard on a
bright, sunny day in February They
did more damage that day than four
such fiocks Of sheep would have
brought on the market, yet they had
grazed on the same orchard the pre-
vious summer without doing any dam
age. This was in an eastern state
where it is quite common to have the
orchards growing in sod. The cult
waited orchard in the State of Okla
homa-and orchards in the state
should be cultivated-will offer moth
ing to stock that stock will care for
and that they ought to have. There
is little or no nutrition in tree leaves,
tree twigs, or tree bark. You do not
get much out of orchard grazing, and
you may lose a great deal--N. o.

TO RAISE MORE BROOM CORN
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION lNcoR.
PoRATED IN OKLAHOMA.
Four Hundred Members In Roger Mills
County; Purpose to Control
Brush Market.

Organization of the broom corn
growers over the state has been start
ed by the National Broom Corn Grow
ers' association, recently incorporated
in Oklahoma City. The association
first was formed in Roger Mills county
where 1t has 400 members and organ
izers now are at work in all north
western Oklahoma counties. Organi-
cation. Of Grady and Caddo counties
will be started in the near future.
The purpose of the association Is to
eliminate the Spectator in the mar
keting of the broom corn crop and
thus secure control Of the market for
the growers. In the past 1t is said
that the Spectator has kept the price
down for the grower and the crop has
not been financially remunerative to
the Oklahoma farmers.
L. l.. Combs of Goodman, Missouri,
who directed the organization last
year of the Colorado wheat growers, Is
in charge of the work as national or
ganizer and he probably will be made
financial agent after the organization
is completed. W. A, Dellinger is dis
trict agent with headquarters in Okla

Okla, is national secretary and other
directors include ], D. Roberts, S. X.

1t is planned to organize other states
as soon as the work Is completed in
Oklahoma.

PROPER ENsILAeE METHODS
Care Necessary II Best Results Are to
Be Obtained

In making sllage from any crop, the
plants should be cut at the stage when
mature and full OF rich, sugary juices.
The crops which are recommended for
sllage making in Oklahoma are Indian
corn, kafir corn, milo, June corn and
the sorghums. In making silage from
Indian corn or kafr corn the plant
should be cut at tfSlt stage when the
kernel Of corn or grain Is in the
starchy, hardening or glazing stage.
The lower leaves will be turning
brown and the upper leaves will still
be green, the stalk soft and full of
rich juices.
The corn should be planted in rows
and cut with a corn binder. The
bundles should be loaded onto a fat
wagon and hauled to the sllo to be
run through an ensilage cutter and
cut into pieces about one-half inch in
length. The blower or carrier elevator
carries the. cut corn into the silo.
II the corn should become too dry
before it is put into the siIo, water
should be added. This can be done
water some four or six feet above tho
ensilage cutter, and with a one-half
inch pipe with a valve for regulating
the flow of water, the proper amount
Of water can be added to the corn as
1t is cut into shorter pieces. 1t is
necessary that this water be added In
order that the silage may be sufficient
ly wet so that 1t will settle properly
and the dry stalks may be softened so
they will pack. This moisture also
assists in excluding the air, thereby
aiding in the preservation Of the
silage
The secret Of silage making Is prac-
tlcally the secret Of canning fruit.
During the process Of filling, two men
should level the sllage ont against the
inside wall and tramp 1t down solidly.
II sufficient moisture is added and the
silage is properly tramped against the
inside wall, which should be alright
and practically impervious to both
air and moisture, there should be little
difficulty in making good silage.

GAIN TWELVE DOLLARS AN ACRE
Feeding Value Of Corn Greatly In.
creased by Use Of Sllos.

BY use of the silo and harvesting
the corn plant for silage, the feeding
value Of the plant is increased from
$1,000 to $1,000 per acre. 1t is esti-
mated that so per cent of the feeding
value OF the corn plant Is in the ear
of corn and 40 per cent Is in the stalk.
II field Of corn which would make
forty bushels per acre Is harvested In
the usual way Of gathering the corn.
and leaving the stalk stand, we have
harvested only so per cent of the corn.
The forty bushels of corn at so cents
per bushel is worth $4,000, but If the
stalks have twothirds the feeding
value of the grain, the stalks are worth
from $1,000 to $1,000 or $500 per
acre, depending upon the quality Of
the crop and the condition they are in
when harvested for sllage.
II the stalks are left in the field
they have feeding value Of from
$1.OO to $3.50 or $3.50 per acre, This
decreased value of the corn stalk when
left In the field Is due to the fact that
when the stalk is left standing It loses
its moisture and the fiber becomes
hard, woody and indlgestible. 1t is
therefore evident that to obtain the
maximum feeding value of the corn
crop, it should be harvested and made
into silage, and that the use of the sllo
will increase the feeding value of the
corn plant from $1,000 TO $1,000 per
acre.
