MURRAY FOR NATIONAL DEFENSE
Oklahoma Congressman is in Favor Of
Extensive Program.

Oklahoma City, Sept. ga plan of
national defense that will Immediately
supply the United States with about
300 submarines, two battleships a year
and coast Notifications that will be
as difficult as the Dardanelles, is the
idea of Congressman w. H. Murray
of Tishomingo. Mr.. Murray sees in
the navy and the coast defenses the
solution of the problem of national de-
fense. He says he would not increase
the standing army very much, but
would do something of benefit to the
national guard, and would double the
capacity both of the United States
Military Academy and the United
States Naval Academy.
with the right sort of navy and
coast defenses," said Mr.. Murray,
'this country could not be invaded,
and we would have only secondary
need for an army"

OKLAHOMA FAIR OPENS
Agricultural Products Are Shown from
All Sections of State.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Sept. 26.-Ag-
riculture is the keynote of the State
Fair that opened here Saturday. Thirty
eight counties have exhibits that are
in every way representative of the
agricultural interests of the state. The
excellence of these exhibits is attrib-
utable to the free township and coun-
ty fairs that have stimulated interest
in farming on the part of the boys and
girls clubs.
1t is the belief of persons who have
assisted in installing these many coun-
ty exhibits that the fair is the most
comprehensive ever held in Oklahoma
in so far as the farm exhibits are con-
cerned. This has been made possible
by the favorable growing season that
resulted in the production of fine
specimens.

KAY COUNTY
GEOLOGlST CLAIMS TO HAVE DIS
COVERED MoNAZlTE SAND, VAL
UAsLE IN CONSTRUCTION OF
GAS MANTLES.

Peckham, Okla, Sept 27.-The
statement of a geologist working in
Kay county that he had found what
was apparently deposit of monazite
sand and that its supply would be in
commercial quantities, has caused
quite a furry of excitement among
men who realize the great value there
would be in a deposit of this sand,
especially as the European war has
about cut off the greater amount of
the supply. Monazite sand is used
chiefly in the construction of gas man.
ties and up to the present time the
supply of extracted sand has been
very limited in the world. The de-
posit is in low land directly south
of Peckham about two miles.
At the present time, Burke county
forth Carolina, is the only place in
the United States where the sand is
found in large quantities and it is said
that none of that is allowed to leave
the United States because of its value
to American manufacturers. There is
supposed to be a deposit in the Uural
mountains of Russia ana one in Brit
ish West Africa, but little is known of
the workings of the fields and none
of the product ever finds its way to
the United States. There is also a
hint of deposits in the West Indian
Islands, in Travancore and in Brazil
in the geological reports of the United
States government.
Monazite is a :r,iow or reddish
brown mineral found in isolated soli-
tary chrystals and is found in gravel
or sand deposits generally. South of
Peckham, it is in gravel deposit on
the side of cut. In past years, mona
zite was found in a number of places
and was described as a phosphate of
ceria No commercial use had even
been found for the sand until it was
established that in certain of its forms
the sand possessed the property of
Transforming heat into light waves. 1t
is as the source of thoria, that mona
zite sands have industrial value, nj
trate of thoria being the fluid into
which gas mantles are dipped.

GERMANS WILL PAY

to buy 100000 bales of American cot
ton at Is cents pound if delivered in

16 cents. The firms have deposited
securities with the American consul
late in Berlin to cover the purchase
price and guarantee that the cotton
will not be put to military or naval
uses. Delivery at Bremen will be i'm
possible, however, unless some modi-
fication of the British orders in coun-

ZINC BEING MINED
IN AR8UCkLE MOUNTAINS

Oklahoma City. Sept. PA large
order for machinery for the zinc re-
ducing mills near Davis, in Murray
county, has recently been placed in
this city by c. M. Lane of the Washita
Lead and Zinc Mining company. The
company will make an exhibit at the
state fair.
The zinc mines are nine miles west
and south of Davis, in the Arbuckle
mountains, and the Washita company
has already invested $4,000 in the
property. The Morrison Mining COM
pany also has a mill running at the
same place. The Washita company
has two mills and the third is being
built.
The zinc deposit in the Arbuckles
has been overlooked until recently
when the Washita company went into
the field. Some work was done there
several years ago, but later it was
abandoned. Mr.. Davis believes the
zinc there is in such large quantities
that there will be many more mills in
a few years. Water power is close
at hand, he says, and the place is ideal
for lead and zinc mining.
at would not be surprising to see
a town of 5000 to 10000 people there

Industry in the state is large, but the

Special Notice

wish to make the following state
ment to the public in regard to the
statements l have made in my ad-
vertisements in this paper.
The skeptical minded person is apt
to foster the idea that all local ad-
vertising is done only to "catch"
and mislead the public, and in this
respect it might be intimated that
my advertisements, claiming that
l would meet all mail order houses
prices, was only a "catch" to get
customers to my store, and then
raise the pride" on them.
But what I want to say to you
emphatically that this is not true. /
positively want it known that at all
times you will find catalogs on dis
play in my store, from all the mail
order houses in the country, and
they are here for your inspection,
to enable you to compare prices and
descriptions Of all articles which
you are interested in.
Don't think for minute, dear
reader, that after having consulted
my prices, l will be sore if you
think my prices too high, or the
quality not good enough.
In fact, it will be impossible for
you to think this after. comparing
my prices with those found in mail
order catalogs on the same items.
And remember, too, if you do not
find just the kind of article you
want here in our store-if you want
better grade or a cheaper grade
of article than l can show you on
the floor, just remember / can get
it for you quicker and cheaper than
you could do by sending away for
it.
am here to serve the community
to the best possible advantage, and
all l ask is that if you need anything
in the furniture line, floor covering,
wall covering, china and glass ware,
crockery, lamp stock, and in fact
everything to be found in a first
class furniture store, just give me
a call. Rest assured you will be
treated right, financially and person
ally.
Yours for better home town,
