SIX HUNDRED CARS ElsERTAS
FROM GUTHRIE FRUIT BELT

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 21-1A little
over 600 cars of Oklahoma Elbertas
weres hipped from the Guthrie fruit
belt this season. At least $50 more
cars would have been loaded, but the
warm, heavy atmosphere early in the
week, together with the juicy condi
tion of the fruit hastened the ripen-
ing so that the pickers never reached
thousands of trees loaded with the
ers had trouble after the first few days
to keep the over ripe fruit out of the
shipping packages. Many orchards
soon had several thousand bushels of
fine, luscious over-ripe peaches on the
dump pile. Out of this the local
housewives have certainly filled their
cellars with fine canned peaches to
last them for years to come. This over
ripe stuff at the packing sheds was
just right for immediate uses.
The Logan County fruit growers
have had expert statesmen at all the
great central markets. They were in
hourly touch with the home man
agement, besides being advised of the
exact conditions at all other shipping
points by the newly organized federal
market bureau. This enabled the
Guthrie shippers to divert any number
of cars from a congested market to

RADICAL CHANGES MAOE-AsoUT
$4,000 ACRES WILL BE OPENED
FOR DEVELOPMENT - FAvORA-
BILE TO OIL MEN.

Pawhuska, Aug. 21.-The Usage
lease question finally has been definite
ly settled and some radical changes
have been made in the Foster lease,
covering approximately $4,000 acres
in the eastern half of Usage county.
In the terms of the settlement
changes entirely different to those
agreed upon several weeks ago and
which precipitated storm of protests
from sublessees and others were
made. The settlement of the lease
question today was far more favora-
BILE to oil men and affords a greater
protection to the Usage Indians.
Superintendent J. George Wright,
Usage Indian agent, together with Mr.
Williams of the bureau OF mines, and
Mr.. Hall, of the department cf the in
terror, met the Indian council at reg
uar meetings held Monday and today
at Pawhuska.

made favorable to the oil men and
particularly to several residents of
Bartlesville. These points have been
the bone of contention and struggle
ever since the resolutions were first
handed down on June II, last.
In the original decision there was
an absolute imitation to forty-eight
hundred acres to each individual, firm
or corporation, but it was the con-
struction that the department placed
upon this provision that was so dead
ly in its work to many local operators.
That is, the rule heretofore obtained
under the Five Civilized tribes was
being enforced and therefore, anyone
who held an interest in a corporation.
which had 1880 acres, must give up
all his other interests, either individu-
ally or in corporation. Today it was
decided by the department and the
tribe that all the present holdings to
the extent of 4,S00 acres in each COM
pany and individual should stand just
as they exist now. That is the inter
est in a corporation that had 4,S0O
acres would not prevent that indi-
vdual from having 4S00 acres more.
This final action will be of great bene
fit to many local operators.
There was a further modification to
the effect that where any company
had surplus developed territory, like
the Barnsdall Oil company, that said
company could bid on and retain its
surplus developed acreage, no matter
how great it was. There are many
other minor notifications and conces-
sions which appear to please the oil
men very much.
The conclusions appear to be the
outcome of final hearings had in Wash
ington before the secretary of the in
terror on Tuesday Wednesday and
Thursday of last week.

some point where they were hungry
for good peaches.


The veteran Oklahoma boomer, Jno.
Golobie, has started a scheme for a
contest between Oklahoma and Cali
fornia grown pesches. The Oklaho-
ma specimens are being gathered and
preserved and will soon reach Frisco,
where they will be placed on exhibi-
ton. When Oklahoma wants a choice
specimen of any of her products she
goes into the fields of growing stuff
and makes her selection. Choice
Specimens" are generally specially
grown for that specific purpose: Ok
lahoma never takes that much trouble.
Her greatest cornstalk in the world"
Omaha, 1S9S-was found in a 30
acre field with thousands of other
stalks quite as good. Her best bush
el of wheat in the world, st. Louis,
1903-was harvested from a 40-acre
wheat field on very ordinary school
lease Her finest Elberta and Hale
peaches this year are found in the
car load shipments loaded for the gen
eral markets. They are grown in the
large commercial orchards where the
trees are breaking under the load of
finest peaches in the world The Logan
county fruit belt is always ready to
contribute its share of beat the
world" peaches, or anything else, even
in competition with the great fruit
growing state of California.

shows that a person knows how to husband his
energy and conserve his strength. DIR. w. H.
Riley, in this months issue of Good Health,
gives some excellent advice along these lines. he
says:
Zone cannot have good health unless he con-
trolls his temper. It is not only the great RACES
and violent bursts of anger that disturb normal
functions but also the habit of irritation and i'm
patience.
There are some people who are entirely up
set when the weather does not suit their plans,
while there are others to whom scorched break
fast toast is tragedy. The lack of poise that is
manifested in constant fretting and fault finding
has very bad effect upon the health.
1--WE are all familiar with the angry appear
ance of the human countenance-it shows in the
eyes, the set jaws the scowls, the flush pallor
of the face; the rigid body and cleached fists are
additional signs of intense feeling. When one is
very angry he feels the heart beating rapidly, his
ears hum, and his muscles witch; the knees feel
weak the mouth becomes parched, and he is
nearly choked with wrath. Then comes the out
burst
'*It is easy to believe that such a condition of
emotion profoundly affects the whole bodily
! economy, and this is precisely what happens.
1.-The dry mouth which is symptom of great
anxiety as well as of anger, is due to sudden
suppression of secretion of the saliva. In India,
prectical use was made of this fact in what was
known as the ordeal of rice When several per-
sons were suspected of crime, the consecrated
rice was given them to chew, and this after a
time was expectorated upon the leaf of the sacred
fig tree. If anyone elected it dry, that was taken
as proof that fear of discovery had stopped sail
vary secretion and the person was found guilty"

TEETOR CONCERN
GIVES employees
$500 IN GIFTS

HAGERSTOWN, Ind, Dec. 27.-The
Teetor-Hartley motor Co.. closed down
the factory Friday forenoon to give
the men a vacation until Wednesday.
They made each employe a present Of
$500. George Fulkerson the oldest
man in the service of the company
was presented IS gold piece. He
has been employed by the company
twenty years. During that time Mr..
Fulkerson has witnessed the very
rapid growth of the factory, having
come here and taken q position as an
expert machinist when it was in its
infancy.
Few towns Of this size are so for
tunate as to be able to keep so thrifty
plant, and one which gives employ
ment to so many men. The increase
in the population has not been as
noticeable as it would have been had
the citizens built sufficient houses for
the families Of the factory employees.
At present there are nearly 260 EN-.
ployes. many of whom live elsewhere.
The $500 gift of the employers to
their men is only indicative of the
many similar remembrances.

Russian Inefficiency.

Last September serious bread riots occurred
in Petrograd. Although the city is situated IN
the center Of a large wheat growing territory, 1t
found itself one day out of foodstuffs. Baker
shops were forced to close their doors. Hungry
mobs stormed the shops demanding enough bread
to sustain life. Appeal to the officials elected the
glib reply, There is a shortage OF cars" Al
though there were thousands of bushels OF grain
within short distance from Petrograd, official in
efficiency made thousands starve At the same
time, passenger cars running half empty were
not Communicated, but permitted to run on their
regular schedule. Had the schedule been inter-
rupted one day, enough grain could have been de-
livered to solve the problem. Russian officials,
however, left the masses to starve.

SOM" he cried out to an old property
man who was passing by. Here is
young lady who refuses to make love
to a wooden post. Dobson is hand
some fellow, Miss Pickford; is he a
better substitute?"
l couldn't agree that Dobson was
handsome fellow. He was tall and
lean and lanky, lantern jawed and had
a long, soft nose which ended in an
arrogant knob. But at least he was
better than the post, and l blushingly
admitted it to Mr.. Griffith.
A Real Lotharia.
But this was only my test, and later
it was Owen Moore who was called by
Mr.. Griffith to play opposite me.
miss Pickford has had a great deal
of experience, Mr.. Moore. so there is
little we can tell her." said Mr.. Grit
fifth, winking slyly, for he had guessed
all along my shortcomings.
remember how conscious / was as
walked up to Mr.. Moore and Mr..
Griffith directed him to put his arms
around me. And how l blushed to the
roots of my hair as he obeyed, orders.
For several minutes l stood there, not
knowing quite what to do. Then
giggled a little bit wondering what
was expected of me. At last, realizing
that was called upon to play my part,
| pressed myforehead to the lapels of
his coat, and said very meekly, as
had said a few minutes before to the
post, 81 love you
This is too emotional" said Mr.
Griffith. ut will never pass the Board
of Public Censors! However, we will
not go further. l really believe Miss
Pickford, after ten years Of life and
rehearsals, you will do a love scene

l told this tearfully to the family
sitting around the dinner table, and
determined that Mr. Griffith should
never reproach me again. l made up
my mind to become proficient maker
OF romance, and l have tried ever
since to live down my first unromantic

One morning l arose at dawn and
stood before the mirror. What had
been promised for my third days work
was q love scene, and l had not the
courage to tell Mr.. Griffith it was to
be my first So that is why l decided
/ must practice my own arts upon my
self in the long, Indifferent mirror
The morning before. sincerely playing
that I was the poor little orphan, had
nothing to reproach myself with, and
l think, between you and me, l was
quite pleased with my own technique.
But when it came to sounding deep
human note I must have struck the
keys too hard, for was all out of tune.
Sir Henry Irving might have found
himself in the mirror very good au-
dience and could find grave flaws in
his own acting by watching himself
before a glass, but learned then I
could never get anything from a study
of my own likeness. My imagery and
my guidance must come from within.
have never pantomimed before my
mirror since that morning.
Love has always seemed very po-
tent thing to me. so l was surprisingly
thrilled with the idea of being called
upon to play in a love scene. even if
1t were to be coldly photographed and
screened.
AS the only romantic episodes had
ever witnessed were across the foot
lights. I had a vague notion that when
Mr. Griffith would stage our scene it
would be accompanied by soft music
and general hushed air prevailing
the studio.
At nine o'clock I was made up-at
three was called. Mr.. Griffith came
to me and said, an amused smile deep
ening the corners of his mouth, 81 sup
pose. Miss Pickford. you've had a
great deal of experience being made
love to-"
A Dreadful Ordeal
Yes. SIR" fibbed. not knowing
what else to say.
I'm that case." he replied. you will
not have to be rehearsed with the
leading man. He is at present sulking
in his dressing room. If you don't mind
you can begin on that post over there.
I merely want to see how realistically
you can portray lovelorn maiden
This was dreadful ordeal! l look
ed at the post In a vague sort of way
as 1 was led toward It. But Mr.. Grit
fifth was already directing me. "Just
imagine. Miss Pickford, this post is a
handsome young man you have loved
for q long, long time. Put your arms
around him and tell him how many
years you have waited to reach this
goal Of happiness"
Mechanically obeyed him, putting
my arms around the post, my face
crimson. my eyes almost filling with
tears and my voice ebbing very low
in my throat as said, In a half-heart-
ed manner. II love you"
When looked around. Mr.. Griffith
was laughing At me. ut seems to me
you are very mild for a young lady so
much In love 90 you. Miss Pickford.
Can't you put more spirit into it,"
This piqued me. Pardon me, Mr..
Griffith" said. with very penitent
air, "but don't think can do myself
Justice with post. He Is not very re-
sponsive."
