KaAr In the Ration.

Roughly speaking, to 6 pounds OF
cotton seed meal with Is to IS pounds
of kafir meal will, when fed with the
necessary roughage. make good
daily ration for a 1000 pound steer.
Twenty pounds of alfalfa with eight
pounds of kafr makes a cheap fat
tening ration for fattening steers.
Kafir when fed alone is constipat-
ing, and has tendency to make the
animal rough 1t therefore fits ideally
into the ration which contains cotton
seed meal, skim milk. alfalfa. clover

Storing Kafir Seed.

Kafir must be handled with the
greatest care to prevent heating.
The first step to secure against
heating is to clean the seed with a
good tanning mill, running it through
as many times as necessary to remove
all dirt and trash The second step is
to store in dry bins so constructed
that the seed can be thoroughly ven
tilated.
To insure ventilation of Ka6r seed
when stored in bins, make a number

Keeps Pineapple Cool.

To keep pineapple cool seems a
problem, for if 1t is put in the icebox,
covered or uncovered, whole or ready
to serve, everything else in the box
absorbs the odor. To prevent this cut
your pineapple into quart jar, add
sugar and seal tightly. In this way
you can put 1t any place in your Ice
box without fear of having anything
else absorb the odor, and it will keep
for days in this way.

Oklahoma City, Okla.-


The question of adopting or reject
ing four of the constitutional amend
ments proposed by Attorney General
West, and which form the basis Of the
platform on which he Is seeking the
democratic nomination for governor,
will not go on the ballot at the August
primary as a result of action taken
by the supreme court, when 1t ad-
journed without announcing decision
on the protests that have been lodged
against the amendments.
Arguments heard by the court were
on the appeal of Parker w. Cress, Of
Perry, and H. M. Sinclair, of okla
hcma City, professionals, from the rul-
ing Of Secretary of State Ben F. Har-
rison in overruling the protests. Cress
appeared for himself, Pat S. Nagle, Of
Kingfsher, represented Sinclair, and
Norman Haskell of Oklahoma City,
represented Attorney General West,
at the hearing.
Cress is protesting the submission
of the amendments proposing a re-
duction in the size of the legislature
to one house of eighty members and
a subordinate body of fifteen members,
and the establishment of one final
supreme appellate court to take the
place OF the present supreme court and
criminal court Of appeals. Sinclair is
protesting these two amendments, as
well as the amendments proposing a
gross production tax on oil and gas
and fixing the maximum state levy at
two and one-half mills and placing re-
strictions on the legislature in the
matter of making appropriations.
The arguments were devoted mainly
to consideration of the amendments as
to whether their effect would be I'M
constitutional.
1t was charged that the amendments
were not submitted in due form, and
that they are in conflict with state and
federal constitutions.

Negro Prisoners Are "Jim Crows"
The exception in the Jim Grow"
law which excerpts officers in the dis
charge of their duties from its pro-
visions, does not extend to the pris-
oner, according to an opinion rend-
cred by the attorney generals office
to the legal department of the Frisco
railroad.
In. other words, an officer in charge
of negro prisoner can ride with his
prisoner in he negro compartments,
but he cannot take his prisoner into
the white compartment to ride with
him.
The opinion was requested by the
railroad as a result Of a near riot
which recently tied up the Governor
for nearly an hour when an officer
insisted on riding in the white coach
with negro prisoner. The passen.
gers refused to ride on the train and
it looked for a short time like there
would be serious personal violence

nothing whatever to do with childs
feelings towards his father. 1t is just
as impossible to compel the respect OF
ones child as 1t is to compel some 9TH
er person to love US. You must earn
his respect, just as you would earn the
respect of friend. 1t costs you some
thing to keep the good will and friend
ship Of your children.
The greatest hold the parent has
upon the child is it's companionship.
How often we hear fathers and moth
ers say that they no longer have
any control over their son; that he
mas passed beyond their reach, and
they do not know what to do with
him. Now, my parent friends, have
you ever tried to make a companion
of your boy; tried tc make him feel
that you were his best friend, by
sympathizing with him in his little
troubles and trials? Do you take an
interest in his hopes and ambitions?
Have you tried to encourage him
when he was down-hearted, had made
a serious mistake. Have you SYM
pathized with him in his struggles for
self-control? Any business man
would be Mortified at the suggestion
that he was running his son by
neglect that his absorption in bust
ness would result in the undoing of
his own son. But if you have been
in the habit of driving him away
from you because you did not want
to be bothered every time he asked
question or came to you with his
little heartaches for your sympathy
and your help, you cannot expect TO
have much influence over him. one
of the bitterest things in many a
business mans life has been the dis
covery, after he had made his money.
that he had lost his hold upon his
boy, and he would give large part
of his fortune to recover his loss.
Every father should think of the
child as a sacred trust, bringing into
the world with him a sealed mes
sage, which he is bound to deliver
like man and hero, and that this
sealed message within him is sacred.
It may not be even for the father to
read; but it is each fathers duty to
help his boy to live up to it.
1t is comparatively easy for you
to gain your boys confidence, If you
begin early enough. From infancy,
he should grow up to feel that no
one else can take your place, that
you stand in peculiar relation to
him, which no one else can fill Every
boy is going to have confidant, some
one to whom he can tell his secrets
and whisper his hopes and ambitions,
which he would not breathe to others,
and this some one should be his IA

himself provisional president of Mex
leo, named cabinet and announced
that his platform is 1.-THE Constitu-
ton and Reform" according to ad-
vices that reached Washington from
government agents at Queretaro. This
makes at least three claimants to
Diaz' power.
constitutionalist ranks up into an
other faction. Gonzales believes he
has as good a chance as Carranza or
Gutierrez.
He has established himself with
10000 men at Pachuca, which is about
fifty miles northeast CT Mexico City.
Villa has his present base and head
quarters at lula, which is fifty miles
north of Mexico City on the Mexican
Central railway. Carranza has his
headquarters at Vera Cruz.
Villa is not himself understood to
be DESTROYS of taking the provisional
presidency, but he is recognized as
the master of those forces which have
controlled the Aguascalientes con
vention and as the master of General
Gutierrez, who is the convention
choice for provisional president.
An assault on Vera Cruz this week
by General Villa and his army of the
Nor9h is forecast in reports received

MORE MEN FOR THE NAVY
Four Thousand Six Hundred Addition.
al Tars Needed-Presdent Said
to Be Opposed to Inquiry Into
Efficiency of Armament

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE naval ap-
preparation bill to be submitted to
congress next week calls for 1900 ad-
ditional men and 240 additional Off
GERS to fully equip all American war
ships of actual military value. The
total estimates of the navy exceed last
years total by about one million dol
lars.
The war department asks for an
increase of $3,105,30 over the total
carried by the army bill for the cur
rent year. It's total of appropriations
to be asked of congress is $104, 124, 512
Representative Gardner of Massa-
chusetts is to meet the president at
the White House and ask opportunity
to advocate his resolution for an in
quiry into the efficiency of the ma
tons armament, but the president
holds TO the view that such an inquiry
not only is unnecessary but that it
might injure the chances for this ma
ton to bring about peace in Europe.
The need of additional officers an>
men was explained during the day to
the house naval affairs committee by
Rear Admiral Blue, chief Of the navi-
cation bureau.
Rear Admiral Stanford chief Of the
bureau of yards and docks, urged the
necessity of appropriations for addi-
tional fuel oil storage. All the ships
OF the navy now under construction
are to use fuel oil, and it is estimated
that this year 30,000,000 gallons will be
used.
Although the army estimates total
larger, reductions are made in the al
lowances for many branches of the
service. A new item of $150,000 for
purchase of automatic machine rifles
is asked. Altogether, $2,900,O00 is
sought for ammunition, compared with
$3,000,000 carried in the current law.
For field artillery for the organized
militia 100000 is asked, $2.100,000
having been appropriated last year.
The signal service would get $780,
900, of which 100000 would be for
the purchase, maintenance, operation
and repair of airships Provision would
be made for giving one years addition
al pay to the beneficiaries of men
killed in the army aviation service.
