Judge Richard A. Billups of Cordell
has one of the most unique histories
in Oklahoma. He is still a young
man, but has been in public office
for a number of years, and has rem
dered a service to the state that
few men have had opportunity to do.
He has been chosen twice to office
before he was of the age that per-
mitted him to hold the office elected
to, and the state legislature both
times legalized his election. He serv-
ed for seven years as Judge of the
county court in Washita county, and
at the end of that time he was elected
to the state senate and served four
years in that body. He was chair
man of the democratic caucus, he was
the author of the state prohibition
bill, which its enemies dubbed the
Billups Booze Bill. He was a dele
gate to the national convention at
Denver and was also a delegate to the

CORN SHORTAGE
MAY Be RESULT
OKLAHOMA BANKERS START A
MOVEMENT TO INCREASE FOR
AGE CROP.

w. Il. Harrison, secretary of the
Oklahoma Bankers association, has
written a personal letter to every
banker in the state, urging immedi-
ate cooperation with the farmers to
get the stubble lands of the state
planted to kaffir and other forage
crops. There will be a shortage of
corn in Missouri, eastern Arkansas,
Tennessee and Texas. There may be
a shortage in Oklahoma. While the
crop looks fine now it can be easily
damaged by a hot summer, and the
crop is beginning to need rain now
This country has big acreage OF
corn, but that does not remove the
necessity of preparing for a shortage
Of that crop. The press of the state

will be glad to cooperate with the
bankers in the publicity end of the
movement. Secretary Harrisons let

"To All Oklahoma Bankers:
IMMEDIATE ATTENTION PLEASE
an the eXuberance generally felt
over harvesting a record wheat crop,
and with the soil full of moisture, it
seems likely the entire state will over
look a most important point.
1--WE are advised by such experts as
John Fields, II. M. Cottrell and w. d.
Bentley, that there is danger of a
very severe drouth has been under
this fall. While Oklahoma has been
enjoying an abundance of rains, a
| evry severe drouth has been under
way in Missouri, Iowa, Kansas and
other corn states, and it is certain
that the corn crop will be poor. South
and east, in Texas, Mississippi, Louis
lana and other states, there is an un-
usually poor corn prospect Oklaho-
ma has quite an acreage of corn, but
it may be burned up any time now
Its acreage of other feed crops is
very low.
Under these conditions, it is i'm.
peratiye that provision be made for
feed next fall. This can be done by
quick action-by listing the wheat
stubble in ka6r, milo, blackeyed peas
or other 90-day crops. Where the
ground is too dry to list, it should
he disced and then plowed In most
parts of the state the soil is moist
without discing Washed out patches
OF corn or cotton should be planted to
feed crops.
"Our farmers are working night and
| day, and we would not have them
uoelect the wheat harvest for any.
thing. But if a shower comes and
| they cant work in the wheat or the
wheat is out of the way, then help
them get in the catch crop. The farm
cr hasn't time to hunt the seed so
We ask the bankers in each commune
ity to do that for him. Plant only
pound to the acre Get it in quick
/ ly. II you go about this in the right
way, you can add 25,OO0,OOO bushels
&c the feed crop Of Oklahoma this
fall. And the wheat money will not
all be sent away for feed.
"You showed what you could do in
1912. You have even better oppor
mnity now but you must act quickly
if the results are to be gained.
Yours for business.

Secretary"

Inspection of
Meats

That part Of the Pure Food and Drug
Act as passed by congress in June, 1906.
relating TO the inspection OF meats has
proved most successful and il the other
sections had accomplished the work
which they were framed to do with an
equal degree OF success the people Of
the United States would be able to buy
pure and wholesome foods at any store
in the land and know Just what thev
were getting.
The one thing that is needed to make
the packing industry a model for all
others IS to require Federal inspection
OF all meat before it can be offered for
sale The law at present requires Fed
eral inspection only when the products
are intended for interstate commerce.
This allows thousands Of small
slaughter houses to continue to place
meat on the market with little or no
inspection And where there is a local
ordinance requiring inspection It Is
usually conducted by a political an
pointee with not the slightest qualihca-
lions for the position
Some cities and states have made a
conscientious effort to provide a thor
Ough and effective inspection but the
Health Departments Of practically
every city and state in the country are
hampered by the lack OF funds. The
salaries that can be offered are not
sufficiently large to attract highly
trained men and those that are en-
ployed are in most cases sadly over
worked, that is II they feel the respon-
sibilities OF their position and make an
effort to do their duty to the best Of
their ability.
For these reasons the use Of meats
prepared in the large packing centers
has largely increased and TODAY the
stamp OF the government inspector is
looked for by many careful purchaser
before placing their order.
