Lacking Humus.

Humus is the one factor that is
lacking in practically all of our old
titled lands. Uuder the methods of
farming generally practiced in the
Northwest the drain on the humus
content has been steady and persist
ent. In many cases even the straw
from the fields has been burned year
after year. Such methods have great

warads, then we feel sure that the
probate courts Of the state will prop
erly appreciate them, but on the con-
trary we believe that IL II is the idea
that these probate attorneys appear
for all Indians, without their being
retained, to stur up strife and liti-
gation, then we believe that these
men will antagonize the better citizen
ship of the state of oklahoma, and will
revive the cry which we sent up a.
gainst Hitchcockism and ,Ballinger-
ism. We further believe that If it be
the policy Of these appointees, and Of
the federal government to cooperate
with the proper courts of Oklahoma,
in the protection of the minors, that
they will find the courts and the good
people of the state upholding them,
but If it be the policy Of the federal
the courts of Oklahoma which were
created for all of the people Of ous
state, and which are maintained by the
taxes of all citizens of the state, AMI
to make of them a sub-agency for the
interior department, then we believe
that they will create a great class dis
tinction here in Oklahoma between the
Indian and the White man, and will
ALLEVIATE the feelings the feelings OF
kindness which we are beginning to
feel for the department Of the interior,
It will be replaced by feeling Of dis
trust for the department.
Never have men in Oklahoma been
intrusted with power which may re-
suit so favorably, or so unfavorably
as these probate attorneys. We know
them to be men of character integrity
and purpose, and If the department at
Washington will take counsel and ad-
vice from these men, who havel lived,
and now live among us, that well
fare Of the state will not suffer at the
hands of those to whom we look to
protect the state as we'll as the Indian.
If they will give us home govern
ment instead of long range depart
mental action, they will give us little
cause to complain, and the best in
