ers' association are gathering here
for the nineteenth annual convention
of their organization. The associa-
ton has several hundred members
in the leading cities and towns OF
Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Ar.
kansas.
The most important matter to be
discussed by the convention is the
subject of Insurance rates on ice fac
tories and cold storage plants, which
it is claimed are too high. The agi-
tatiOn may result in the formation of
q mutual insurance company to In
clude all plants having membership

MuskegOn, Okla, Nov. 18.-Scienti.
fc farming with Oxen is not taught in
the agricultural college, neither Is
it mentained in the tons Of press bull
letins and literature sent out by the
United States department of agricul-
ture. Yet just this combination has
produced some remarkable results on
the farm of G. X. Marks, half way
between Yahola and Haskell, Okla.
Marks star success this year was
sweet p%otatoes-a big, white yam that
Is marvellous for size and weight.
His biggest potato weighed over 20
pounds. From n hill the pillow turn
ed up over thirty-two pcunls Of po-
tatoes, one of these weighing fourteen
and one.fourth pounds, another sew
en- and still another five, the. last be-
ing far bigger than the average "big-
gest" potato.
Marks refused to state what an
acre Of such potatoes yielded because
he says it is so enormous that no
body would believe it. But he has

Marks all the monvy he needed to

tatoes like that can get all the credit
he needs" said the banker as he
gazed in amazement at these that
were nearer the size of w%atermelons
than they were any sweet potatoes
the banker had ever before seen.
Proof that scientific methods we're
used in growing these potatoes lies
in the fact that but one rain fell on
them from the time they were plant
ed until they matured, and that was
just a few days after they were plant
ed. The proof of the OK team cultiva.

vision of this new law.

fore commencing business in this

troller a statement of its purpose
TO transact business, the nature
and plan of its proposed bust
ness, copies Of all stock or bonds
which it proposes to sell, a state
ment showing its financial condi-
ton, all OF which much be fur
nished under oath.

ticn to filing statements as are re-
quired from domestic corpora
ticns must also file with the
comptroller an agreement that
actions may be commenced
against them in this State and that
service on the comptroller will be
considered service on the corpora
ton in any action that may be
commenced by residents of this
State.

time, any domestic or foreign
corporation doing business in this
State, the expense of such exami-
nation being borne by the cor
poration examined.
agents may Be appointed to
sell the securities of corporations,
but those agents must be register
ed, and they may be required by
the comptroller to give bond for
the proper discharge OF their du-
ties.

for the purpose OF protecting, as
far as possible, the people OF this
State from the activities OF Wild
cat corporation. and agents who
sell stocks and bonds that have
