AGRICULTURE BOARD REPORTS
Some Funds Return Sums to Treasury
Owing to Inability to Spend Them

Oklahoma City, Okla, Dec. 13.-Re-
port has been filed with Governor
Cruce showing condition of contingent
and special funds of the board of agri-
culture for the year ending June 80,
1914. Owing to the uncertainty of the
personnel of the board for about half
the year, the matter being tied up in
court, a number of functions were not
performed. This is probably the rea-
son for the reversion to the treasury
OF considerable balances in several
branches.
The women's auxiliary turned back
S4,0S3,99 of It's appropriation. The
farmers institute budget returns 49,
S21.67 to the treasury Demonstration
farming hands back $7,54S.91. Ten
thousand dollars for buildings for the
dry farming congress at Tulsa was not
expended.
