FREE FAN
SERVICE TO
INVALIDS

Free electric fan service for the ben
eft of the sick is offered to the public
this summer by the Chickasha Gas ami
Electric company, according TO F. d.
Shaffer the manager. The offer the
company makes il effect Is that elec.
trio fans, and where necessary, the
current to operate will be furnished
without cost to persons seriously i'll
who are unable to Ray for the service
The only conditions are that the at
tending physician must certify to the
reasonable necessity for fan service.
and to the patients inability to afford
it. The offer, Of course, applies where
the sick room is within the reach OF
the companys lines
The reason for making conditions OF
any kind is for the obvious purpose OF
protecting the free electric fan for the
use Of those who really need ii and
cannot afford it, says Manager S. d.
Shaffer. "it is a public welfare propo-
sition and is evidence Of the general
policy of our company. No hard and
fast rules are enforced regarding the
free service, our aim being to make it
do as much good as possible. During
the summer months, there are always
cases where the use of an electric fan
greatly improves the condition of the
patient, and sometimes represents the
narrow margin between life and
death"
This offer has been made and re-
ceived with approval and at once util-
lied by physicians in other cities where
our company operates"

Rain Delays Ripening Of Grain but
the Binders Will Get Busy
Next Week Corn is
Growing Fast
SECOND CUTTING
ALFALFA COMING
First Crop Damaged by Rain and
Commercial Value Cut Down
but Still Has Great Value
as Feed

The wheat harvest in Grady county
Is about week away. with promises of
one Of the very best crops in the his
tory Of the county Had the rain OF
the past month, been cut half in two,
the rattle of the sickle would be heard
in the land at this time, but such an
abundaaee Of rain has put so much sap
il the stalks that the ripening is lit
tie slow. The grain is lin the dough-
and well toward development into a
mature grain.
A week of bright sunshine expert
enced during the past week and the
crop win be ready for the reaper. Very
little damage is evident from any
source. The crop as whole is prac-
tically free from rust and only in spots
has damage been done by the in
sects. OF other opposing forces there
are practically none en- the docket, and
there is no chance to rub the smile off
the face OF the Grady county wheat
grower at this time.
Oats, having gotten away from the
pole little late, is picking up wonder
fully and at the three-quarters pole is
running far ahead OF the form sheet,
in good stride and looks like sure
winner. A late freeze or two put a
slight crimp in the crop and for time
it was thought that the oats would pro-
duce mediocre yield this year but in
the last three weeks the development
has been but shade short of the illus
ion variety Of performances. From all
external appearances the result has
been attained by the welding of a
magic wand over the fields and ex-
perts say the crop will be the best ex-
perienced in Grady county for six
years.
Corn is growing SO fast that crack
ing and groaning OF the stalks attend
ant 10 the process IS keeping the farm
ers awake nights. This crop. like the
oats. was little late in starting, the
plants in some OF the fields having
stood for couple OF weeks in water
and all In water soaked fields, supple
mented by cold. cloudy weather
Old Sol having once smiled upon the
fields, however, the corn got away on
high speed and If the present condi-
tions hold true until harvest time, the
proverbal ladder will be an essential
factor in the harvesting process.
The first crop Of alfalfa, Of which
staple Grady county boasts a greatly
increased acreage this year, was in a
measure ruined as concerns the market
value on account Of the everyday rain
az the time it was out The fact that
the rain practically eliminated the
market value OF the first crop does not
mean that the cutting will be total
loss to the farmers. The hay still re-
tains a great deal Of value as feed
crop.
The second crop is coming on a.
booming and will. from all appear
ances. be great deal better and more
plentiful than the first
