TROUBLE At TULSA
ARRESTS MADE
MILITIA FIRES AT RACE MEET
SCENE NOW CHANGED TO
CRIMINAL COURT.

Tulsa, Okla, April 15.--After state
militiamen had fired upon horses
and jockeys in the first race of to-
days program at the fair grounds,
track officials decided to abandon
any further attempts at racing today
and await action from the criminal
court of appeals at Oklahoma City
on the application for a writ of ha-
beas corpus for 4hree men arrested
by the militia and placed in the mil
itary prison.
Canton Warned Racers.
Just before the post time for the
first race, Adjutant General Canton
addressing the crowd, told them of
his orders. and asked them all to
leave the grounds. This request was
enforced by militiamen with fixed
bayonets All spectators We're fore
ed outside, and only officials and
newspaper men were allowed inside.
The climax to the afternoon came
when Manager Bob Allison of the
jockey club forced his way through
the gates to the accompaniment OF
cheers from the crowd and ordered
the first race started.
Ten horses went to the post but
there was no evidence of betting.
The starter lost no time in dropping
the barrier, and amid wild shouts
of the crowd, the horses raced
around the track.
Militia Fires.
Just as the ten horses, well
punched, pulled into the stretch,
Major Scott, accompanied by two
enlisted men, stepped in front OF
the grandstand and opened fire,
apparently directly at the approach
ing horses. The horses came thun-
dering down the stretch, apparently
not affected the least by the shoot
ing and the soldiers jumped aside
as the racers swept under the wire.
Major Scott fired a revolver while
the enlisted men used regulation
guns. They said afterwari that
they only fred into the air.
THEE Arrested.
Then General Canton gave orders

SPRING GARDEN PLANNING
Order Seeds Early and Test Them.
e. x. PARKINSON.

February is garden planning month,
FOR there are the seeds 20 be ordered,
plans TO be drawn. manure to be pur-
chased and plowman TO be engaged
TO derive the greatest pleasure from a
garden Il should be a permanent one
and the spot most carefully selected
A level piece or one sloping gently
toward the south is TO be preferred,
and If possible a windbreak Of ever
greens should be set out on the north
side and low hedge OF barberry
might be planted around the edge or
the entire garden, adding great beauty
and providing bright autumn coloring.
For illustration We will lay out gar
den for family OF six and divide in
four parts. so that any or all could be
used. Mark out, then, square 200
feet on each side, with a windbreak Of
trees or wall or board fence on the
north side aud a low hedge OF barber
ry on the other three sides. Divide
this square into four equal parts by
walks ten feet wide and where they
cross in the center build a little arbor
on which TO grow vines. Each Of the
squares will be ninety-five feet. on
the east, west and north sides set out
fruit trees next to the hedge-apples
and cherries twenty-five feet apart
pears and peaches about twenty feet
and plums about fifteen feet apart.
Layina Out the Garden.
On the plan mark the plots 1. ?, 3, L.
Use the northwest plot, No. 1, for per
manent crops, such as grapes. small
fruits rhubarb, asparagus, strawber-
ries and herbs. leaving a five foot strip
on the two sides bordering the walk
for perennials-peonies. iris. phlox

the north side, plant twelve grape vines.

Of rhubarb, five rows Of asparagus con-
tanning about 100 plants set three feet

Let the vegetable rows run north and

table seeds win be about SIS. Buy Of

Poultry and Duck Raiser.
Are the ducks laying yet? II not
perhaps It Is because they haven't been
handled just right The breeders
should be from last years (May'sl
matches. and the general rule is to
place thirty in each pen in the proper
ton of one drake to five ducks, the
drake being easily distinguished by the
curl I'm his tail and his softer voice.
The duck house should be dry. well
ventilated, free from drafts and kept
clean. A house II by Is feet will
house comfortably a family of thirty.
Provide plenty Of nests made from
soap boxes with the fronts cut down
or from boxes OF any kind that are
large enough; also put in V shaped
feed trough Of sufficient length to al
low the ducks to feed without crowd
ing. and box Of grit and one Of oys-
ter shells complete the equipment
During the colder weather a good bed
ding of straw, planer shavings or
marsh hay will be appreciated and If
added TO a little each day can always
be clean and dry. II possible provide
a pond or stream for the ducks TO swim
in. although this is not an absolute ne
cessity. but should there be no stream
available an excellent drinking place
may be made by digging a hole . by .
by ? feet and over IL laying wooden
frame covered with heavy screen wire,
such as is used in making gravel
screens; then set the water pan on the
middle Of IT, and this will keep the
ground around it dry. OF course free
range reduces labor and always adds
to the health of the birds
Now as TO feed. An excellent mash
may be made from the following: Two
parts cornmeal. two parts ground oats
or barley, one part wheat bran, two
and one-half parts beef scraps. one
half part sharp sand and two parts cut
green clover or alfalfa meal. This
should be moistened and fed morning
and evening while at noon light feed
OF dry grain should be given consisting
Of one part oats. one part wheat and
two parts cracked corn. Ducks lay
early in the morning. between and
as a rule. and thus are better confined
/ until after that time.
In selecting the breeders pick Oul
the large, vigorous ones with long
deep bodies. bright eyes and typical
/ shapes. There are ten distinct breeds
OF duck recognized by the American
Poultry association. so that one may
pick out variety that particularly ap
peals to him. and by study and careful

POSSIBILITIES OF BEEF ON A
FEW ACRES
Fat Cattle More Profitable Than
Milk.
HEnDcE a nACN

OEOhOE H. DAC1.
Millions Of people are beef eaters,
while few are beef producers and ex-
istent prices for beef are so high and
stable that many former dairymen and
grain farmers are raising beef or feed
ing game. Manifold benefits accrue
from this to farmer. first because he
converts his crops of corn, clover and
alfalfa into more concentrated and val
liable form Of meat, while he is also
toning up the productivity Of land
through the resultant manure, and he
utilizes labor to maximum advantage
during the entire year.
Farmers could proftably maintain a
few grade cows Of beef type as well as
a pure bred bull of Hereford. Angus or
Shorth0rn blood and thus equipped
would acquire valuable crop Of
calves. which he could feed TO matur-
ity or else sell 10 some other cattle
man. Where the farmer has good pas
turage for summer grazing and where
he can raise a surplus Of corn for the
silo and for grain In addition to some
nutritious and palatable variety Of hay
he is assured of success in cattle rails
ing. The calves could run with their
dams until they were naturally wean.

the animals show need for concentrates

weighing about 1000 pounds apiece, al

prOftablef
A cattle raiser living near a large
town should strive 70 develop a spe
cial trade Tor fat cattle. By producing
extra fine beeves he could do business
with some first class butcher Willing
10 pay bumper prices for superior
meat. Last year a corn belt stockmaI

The essential parts OF a brooder are

The Pipe System.
For those who only wish to raise

pit at one end of the building. The
cost Of installing such a system Is not

In using any Of the different styles Of
indoor brooders it is necessary TO Keep
the air IN the room or brooder house

OF ventilation which viii avoid drafts.
Outdoor brOoders are usually divided
