HEALDTON

Healdton, Okla, Dec. 1S.-Cold,
cloudy and real wintry has been the
weather the past week, with quite a
large rainfall which will be beneficial
to the farmers, as the crops were all
about out 1t will also be a help to
the roads.
We still see a good many leaving
the fields to be at home through the
holidays.
Tankers are still quite busy and
we can hear the sound OF the ham
mers on all sides.
Drilling seems to be going on all
over the east part of the field and
we hear of new wells coming in near
ly every day.
Aubrey and Roy Chiffon, who have
been to Mexico, looking for a new
location to move to, are at home,
both saying Carter county looks good
to them: anyway better than anything
they found.

HIGHWAY To
OIL FIELD
LONGER DELAY is DANGEROUS
AND COSTING THE BUSINESS
INTERESTS OF THIS CITY MANY
THOUSANDS EVERY MONTH.

The question of good permanent
highway from this city to the Heald
ton oil field is one that is not going
to brook much delay. The committees
recently appointed by the Chamber
of Commerce should be in position
to make some definite report before
long so it will be known just how
much money must be raised, either
by bond issue or subscription, that
the work may begin as soon as pos,
sible.
The renewed activity in the oil
fields will be worth many thousands
of dollars to Ardmore every month,
but the oil field workers and opera
tors are not going to risk breaking
their machines coming to and fro to
spend their money here, over such
roads as they have to travel at pres
ent, when they can do so closer to
the field of operation.
The Chamber of Commerce in the
past has collected many hundreds of
dollars to make temporary repairs on
the road between this city and the
oil fields. The business men of the
city are entirely dissatisfied with
this method, as they feel that their
money has been wasted They are
willing to put up the money for a
permanent road, either by voting
bonds or by popular subscription as
soon as they can find out how much
it is going to cost, and this question
is going to be urged on the road
committee by the Chamber of Com.
merce. and request that they get this
data for the public at once.
Ringing is offering some induce
ments to the oil field operators" said
one business man of the city today,
who is interested in seeing good
road built, "and unless Ardmore gets
busy, we are going to wake up some
morning and fin0 that business that
we should get is going to a place
that is accessible, Therefore, let us
get the good roads question speedily
or else stop talking about it alto
gether, and forget all about our aims
and ambitions"

MOONLIGHT
SCHOOLS DOING
GREAT WORK
THOSE OPERATED IN COUNTY
ARE GIVING GRATIFYING RE
PORTS TO COUNTY SUPERlN-
TENOENT.

Eyck, in this county. has the dis
tinction of having the first and lar
gest moonlight school in this section,
and not only the largest, but the most
enthusiastic as well, owing in a large
measure to the two estimable young
ladies, Misses Jennie Smith and Addie
Lou Morgan, who are teaching in that
district and adding to their regular
duties two nights each week, which
they devote to teaching the moonlight
school for the benefit of adult persons.
At the opening of the school, four
teen were enrolled the first session,
and since that time more have been
added They are all enthusiastic
over the school out there, and il will
be the means of giving many persons
of middle age and beyond the first ru-
diments of an education they ever
had. This school was organized by
County Superintendent Thurston on
the night of December !, and for the
short time it has been in operation
the result has been most gratifying
to him.
There are several other night
schools in the county that have not
filed their regular report with the
county superintendent, and he was
unable to give the status of their
work. Schools are in operation at
Wilson, Blue Ribbon, Keller, Springer
and other districts, and next week MIR.
Thurston states he will organize
schools at Enterprise, Camp, Buck
horn. Fox and, if time permits. other
districts in the county. Reports will
be asked from all districts where
night schools are in progress, and
the work accomplished fully explained.
Superintendent Thurston and Pro
fessor Richards of the city schools
are both enthusiastic over the idea
of moonlight schools, and Immediately
after the holidays, night schools will
be conducted by volunteer teachers
in the four wards of the city schools
Permission to use the buildings was
granted at the last regular session of
the school board,
A combined effort upon the part
Of the city and county superintendent
and all the teachers liz the county

ent time is too high.

county could neither read nor write,
of that number six hundred were

conditions we have to deal with in this state This enables the tree to get we'll established before spring and there is less danger of damage by the summer drought. Severe losses can often be prevented by the proper treat ment of the trees at the time of plant ing Cut off the bruised and broken ends of roots and thin out the crowd ing and interlacing ones. A large part of the root surface has been cut off at the time of digging and to meet this loss the top should be cut back one-third to one-half. In planting, too much care cannot be given in placing the trees in permanent position. As a rule, trees are planted in squares. locating the position of the tree by measure or by sighting. After the To- cations of the trees are found, 1t IS we'll to use a common planting board, which consists of small board about five feet long, with notch in either end and a notch in the middle The middle notch is placed at the stake where the tree is to be planted and other stakes are driven in the notches at the end. Then the planting board is taken away and the hole dug Then the board is placed back in the posi- ton and this locates the position of the tree while planting and insures straight rows. If very impervious sub-soil is found perhaps little dyna, mite could be used to advantage. In most locations, however, dynamite will not be necessary

cality and give preference to varie- ties of high quality. Good culture can not atone iii the future for the selec- tion of poor varieties, and, for this reason, it is important to select va rieties of high quality at the begin hing Another factor to consider in the varieties for the home orchard is choosing the varieties that suit your special taste Each planter will have to decide these things for himself. if in doubt as to the varieties best suit ed to your locality and tastes, send to the Arkansas Experiment Station for Bulletin 116.
 Selecting Nursery Stock.
 One cannot be too careful in select ing nursery stock for home planting. The common mistakes made are se- lecting cheap trees and ordering from unreliable nurseries. Cheap trees are poor economy and are very apt to be untrue to name. They are expensive at any price. First class trees from a reliable nursery must be expected to cost more than poor trees from poor ly managed nursery. Patronize a nearby nursery, other things being equal, so that you will be able to go and inspect the stock yourself before buying.
 Planting.
 The ground for the orchard should be as well if not better prepared than for any farm crop. Fall and winter planting is probably best with the
