TWO KINDS OF MEN.

WYE ARE to have automobile races Saturday at the
w State fair, a fitting and brilliant close to a sue.
ccsSiul exposition.
There will be a crowd which will tax the seating capac-
ity Of the graudstand Here is a situation which the man
agement found it physically impossible t]oimprove, on ac-
count OF the burning OF the old grandstand a few week,
ago. Men have worked night and day to finish the cement
g~rand,tand. but ouly a portion of it is completed, and al,
who wish to buy seats canno, be accommodated
This calls for h~ospiablc treatment on the part OF home
folks. so that the man who cauStically commented on some
Of the empty box seats at the Wednesday races will hay"
no opportunity to repeat his pertinent remarks.
Here is what the man said
q saw a man buy an entire box, so that his family OF
four would have seats and so tina, no undesirable persons
could purchase the remaining seats in the box. The pur-
chaser had a right to do this The fair management Is
ready to sell entire boxes and the buyers can do what they
please with the seats.
"Thc two seats in the box remained empty during all Of
the time Wednesday that the huge crowd swarmed into
the g~randstand looking for inches Of space on which I.
rest. Tired women stood outside the boxes and gazcd
wistfully at the tempting seats-not in use, but paid for.
lust a short distance away another man occupied a
box which he had purchased for his family of three. Tn,
remaining seats were not to be placed on the open market
for those who might not be desirable companions in The
family circle.
But this man never intended that those three scat
should be empty all Of the afternoon. He bought then
for protection, not to put them out of commission.
Looking keenly over the large audience this man wit
the three seats spotted three aged people from the coun.
try. Promptly he invited them into his box to use thu
three seats. and three elderly patrons Of the State Fair
will not forget the hospitality which was extended them
Here is a bit of comment which suggests that the colder
rule can well be employed in large crowds and not con
fined within selfish limits

SEVENTY-FIVE-CENT EGGS.

Mo, eggs arc not seventy-iNe cents a dozen III y
~ homa. but the people OF Boston are alarmed I" INC
statement Jus, made by the secretary Of the Massachusetts
board Of agriculture who confidently predicts that the boS-
ton housewife will pay such a price about the time snow
flies in New England.
While this prediction Of an official seems over en'hu'
,a,tic. the egg market over the land is steady and the price
now in effect and prospective is an invitation to Oklahoma
to expand its poultry industry
MANY residents of Oklahoma City are successful ~
raising poultry in their ~backyards. Fancy BIRDS are sol"
at high prices and eggs are marketed to private custom

many families are ready to pay extra prices tor eggs KNOW

Oklahoma poultry raisers are not looking forward to
rrice Of seventy five cents for their eggs, but they are con
fident that the approaching cold season will bring to Their
an extra profit.
The poultry industry in this state has been neglected
Oklahoma ha, an ideal climate for chickens. A visit II
the poultry building at the State Fair proves that our state
can produce fowls OF the highest type, but the quantity ma
been Disappointing.
When high prices OF farm products prevail unusual AZ
tention is generally given to such crops in the hope ina
the advanced values will be maintained. Yet often a STAN
pede to produce heavily OF any commodity results in al
over supply, which depresses prices. But such Is not I'ke'!
to develop in the poultry industry.
The demand for poultry and poultry products seems t.
be on the increase, similar to the situation in the beet mar

THE UGLY

y ESIDENTS OF Lake Forest, Ills, a suburb OF Chicago,
~ have notiiied the owners OF biilboards to remove the
uusghtly things or the police would do so The citizens o.,
that community propose to have a city beautiful and vii
not permit tho ugly monsters OF billboard, to remain
longer to blast the scenic effect
For some year, the civic association OF this city has
been preaching for more civic beauty The results have
been magic-ilowers prevail IN great quantity, green lawn,
present a yelycty appearance, shade trees line the boulc
wards, flower boxes decorate the windows and porches OF
homes which have limited ground areas to cultivate-but
the billboards stretch their ugly heads high in the air at
every corner which can be utilized for the purpose.
The lover of civic beauty has a duty to perform His
work is no, finished until he has banished the billboards
from inside the city limits, and they are bad enough when
seen from a car window away out IN the country.
Whenever we can bring enough influence to bear to bar
this menace to civic beauty and plant flowers where the
billboards now arrogantly confront us, we will have
brought about a condition which will enable us to herald
Oklahoma City as a center OF poisoning loyelinc'S.

public demanded something wild, rough Tough. But the
public didn't, and the show people have found it out
These side shows at the State fair are Of the kind that
anyone can attend and no, he shocked. In former days
it was hazardous to step inside one Of the tents which
offered hot entertainments. And no man dared take hi,
family into one OF them.
But arrangements OF side shows have found out that
the public wants high class, decent shows. The one at
the State fair is being literally patroniled simply for the
reason that Us collection OF shows is Of the kind that
entertain and do not offend.
