There is nothing that the average
boy or girl would rather possess than
a nice pony and cart. These outfits
are not only an unfai1ing source of
pleasure, but they are quite useful in
going about, running errands, making
visits, doing shopping and taking lit
tie trips
The use of these outfits is by no
means confined to children. The
Shetland pony is sturdy little ami
NAL, and these buggies are so built
that they will easily carry two peo-
pie of ordinary size. These Shetland
ponies are as gentle as kittens, affec-
tionate in their nature and can be
driven or handled by any child, no
matter how small. They are not
afraid of anything. but are perfectly
safe.
FRIENDS WILL BE GLAD TO HELP.
Already number of nominations
have come in of ambitious boys and
girls who want to win this outfit, and
it is likely that many more will be in.
An early start is valuable and can be
used to advantage. 1t gets your
friends interested in your behalf. and
it is your friends who can make you
win.
But friends are glad to help. They
like to see young folks get out and
hustle for themselves They will re-
gard it as a privilege to save tteir
coupons for you and give you their
subscriptions and renewals to The
Comet so that you may obtain the
votes that are issued with the sub
scription payments.
EVERYBODY WINS.
This is q case where everybody
wins. The subscriber gets a good pa
per and at the regular price. The
boy or girl who receives the higest
vote will get the pony outfit-a prize
of beauty and value; the one stand
ing second highest will receive the
Gold Watch.
The details of the contest are very
simple. 1t is not being run by any
contest company, but it is being con-
Quoted by the management of this pa
per, which guarantees that there will
be no misrepresentation to anybody,
but that the contest will be run in a
manner fair and square to all from
first to last. Any boy or girl who will
come to this Office and signify inten-
tion of entering the contest will be
given all the information desired
about getting the renewing subscrip-
tions. and will be supplied with blanks
to use for that purpose.

Special TO The Sunday World
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-That the
Sues canal, figuring SO prominently
M jtbe military operations to which
fdfkey is a party, is not the first ca
nal that Joined the Red sea with the
Mediterranean, is briefly told in a
statement prepared for the press to-
day by the National Geographic so
ciety.
From the morning Of history, the
west has sought to break into the east
0y way of SueZ. Somewhere during
HE years 1350-130O B. c., the Egypt
ians under Seti ! and Ramses H.
ioined the Nile by way Of Lake Tim
sab to the Red sea, thus opening a
waterway, the archtypc of the present
canal. from the Mediterranean, over
the SueZ isthmus TO the orient This
canal was choked by sand in the
course of ages. Necho, about 500 b..
g,s Ieean a canal from ancient Bup's-
is, and Darius Hystaspis, one hundred
years later, completed the work, once
more bringing the Red sea and Me
together. Although nearly choked MP
by the beginning Of the Christian era
it was uaYigable to degree as Ia'e
asftho battle Of Actium, and some OF
Cieopatra's ships escaped this way TO
heRed sea. ,r
";fra5an restored the canal. 1t fell
intoEhisure and choked up again.
Am5u the Islamic conqueror of
Egypt, restored it for the last time In
the seventh century, connecting caro-
with the Red sea. Napoleon caused
the old route TO be surveyed, but
was forced to drop the project After
him. Mcttern!ch, the great re"ctlon1ry
prime minister Of Austria Hungary,
stimulated Suez commission in lS4'.
Nothing, however, came Of It.
"As the world well knows, the Suez
canal Ras built by the man who failed
10 build the Panama canal-Count
Ferdinand de- Lesseps. Its original
depth was 26A feet, and its bottom
width - feet. II could accommodate
gnips Of "a 7-12 feet, but II was in
operation II years, beginning in 1863,
before vessels of such draught sought
passage. BY 1890 its depth had been
lncheased 29i2 feet, and when the
United states announced its intention
10 make a canal Al feet deep and 300
feet wide at its narrowest bottom
point at Panama, the work at SueZ
was extended so as ultimately to give
a bottom width of 1874 y feet and a
doTth of Sc l-12 feet. 1t was eX-
pected that this enlargement would
be- complete by next year, but the war
has interrupted operations.

These crops should include oats for
grain, and oats, barley, or rye Or
hay, and any one of these for win
ter and spring grazing or for humuf
value. Although October and No.
vember are the best months for
planting these crops in the cotton
country the time may be extended
into the winter. The winter crops
should be followed by summer le-
gumes such as cowpeas. soy beans,

HOES FOR COTTON IN
OKLAHOMA NEXT YEAR
UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
ADVISES FARMERS TO GROW
LIVE STOCK AS CASH CROP.

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA -Four
measures are being recommended by
the United States department Of ag-
riculture to the farmers of the south
in order to remedy the conditions
created by the collapse Of the cotton
market. These are:
1.-The reduction of expenses by
the production of more food for the
family and moro grain and forage
for the live stock.
2-The substitution of other money
crops for part of the cotton acreage
9-The raising of more live stock.
4-The addition of humus 10 the
soil In order to make fertilizer less
expensive.
The fret thing TO be done, say the
government specialists, is TO plant
winter crops 20 be used partly for
winter and spring grazing, partly
for spring hay and grain, and partly
for cover crops to be turned back
into the soil for fertilizing purposes.
