Several local implement dealers re-
port a spring sale of improved farm
ing machinery SURPRISING that OF any
previous year Improved machinery
means improved methods, which is
sure to mean improved farming and
consequently better and more abun-
dant crops. The greatest need in this
county is the right method of raisini
crops-the soil is here already.
The News carries this week a large
advertisement of steel silel for which
a well known citizen is agent. This
is the first siIo advertisement ever
printed in The News, and the expen.
diture of money in advertising that
particular article would indicate the
advertisers faith in a coming demand
here for the silo. We have yet to
learn of the farmer and stock raiser
who used a silo, who would ever again
be without one.

The baseball season is here again,
and the crowd that saw the opening
game Of the TO League between Du-
rant and Ardmore here Tuesday was
the biggest that ever attended a ball
game in Durant. Interest in baseball,
and particularly in the Durant team
of the TO. League, was never more
evident. The lineup this year promis-
es to be a pennant winning bunch.
Unlike former teams representing Du-
rant, the boys this year are all hitters
as well as fieldersi This paper pre-
diets a successful season in every par

The move by local capitalists and
stockmen to provide permanent fair

stimulate the raising of bstter stock
TO an enormous degree, and an annual
county fair is the best advertisement
that any county would ask. The mat

cial support of every public spirited

A recent Jail delivery and still anoth-
