OILTON Okla, oct 21.-In the oil
field district of the state corn will
average 35 bushels TO the acre this
fall. according to Dr. j. G.. Bland of
Tulsa. ono of the most extensive
owners Of agricultural lands in Greek

suwoi To- oats and wheat and that
planting will ho continued well toward
the end OF the year. Much of the

been put in alfalfa In regard TO cot

will be a banner one for that crop.

sparsely that the distance from
any one TO its nearest neigh bors
would average about Eye miles.
TO describe such vast distances
we need a new unit OF measure
ment. and a convenient one Is the
distance which light. advancing
steadily at the rate OF 10000
miles every second. traverses in a
year. Such a 'light-year" is al
most exactly represented by one
mile on the scale of our model.
Stars within thirty light-years
OF the sun are now regarded as
our very near neighbors. Greater
distances. up to hundred light
years or so. can be measured with
tolerable accuracy by direct OBJ
servauon. But the majority even
OF the brighter stars are certainly
far beyond this limit. We can
estimate their average distance
by means of their apparent drift
across the heavens, which arises
from the actual motion OF our
system in the opposite direction.
and II is found that almost half
OF the stars visible to the naked
eye are more than 400 light-years
distant, while the majority OF the
telescope stars OF the tenth mag
nitude are over a thousand light

seem to thin out considerably at
500 nsht-years. and none are
found more than 1900 light-years
from the central plane. which
passes about 100 light-years south
