REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN FALLS
FLAT.

Since those few effervescent bub-
bes which followed the Republican
nomination, have disappeared the
country has almost forgotten who the
Republicans and Bull Moose nomina-
ted for president Every day brings
added proof that the country Is more
than satisfied with the great safe and
sane statesman in the White House
and that IT intends to engage his
services for four more years.
There was very significant de-
velopment at the Chicago Republi-
can convention, which a good many
have overlooked When the Repub-
lcans have hopes of winning victory,
there is not only a scramble for the
temporary chairmanship of the con
manent Craftsmanship too. These two
offices are high honors and the in
cumbents are the two keynoters of the
convention. This year, however, the
Republicans did not have enough is
sues for one keynoter much less for
two, and so instead of electing a
temporary and permanent chairman,
thus honoring two of its big leaders,
they made poor old Senator Harding
of Ohio, fill both bills as there was
no scramble for chairmanships this
year, for the scramblers do not like
the idea of trying to make funeral
sermon" sound like battle cry, and
so they allowed the double honor to
devolve on Senator Harding, who
was both temporary and permanent
chairman, and some of the reports
said he fell flat and others said he
blew up which is saying the same
thing in different way.

THE SHIPPING BILL TO PASS.

The determination of the Demo
Gratis of the Senate to pass the ad-
ministration shipping bill this ses-
sion is meeting with overwhelming
popular approval This bill will at
once create great merchant marine
for carrying American goods to all
parts of the world and thereby great
ly promote our foreign trade. Here
tofore, the expectation of American
goods has been almost entirely de
pendent on the great merchant ma
rines of Great Britain, and Germany
and of course these two great com
mercial countries always give the
products of their own countries the
benefit of their best service so
American trade has been at a great
disadvantage for lack of merchant
marine. This bill provides for the
creation of company with S5O,0OO,-
GOO capital to be furnished partly by
the government and partly by pri-
vate capitalists, but these ships are
to be auXiliaries of the navy, but
in times of peace they are to be used
for merchant shipping The bill is
heartily supported by both houses of
congress, except those Senator's and
Representatives who are tools of the
shipping trusts. The Democratic
leaders have declared that this bill
must become a law before congress
adjourns, as the growing industries
of the country demands.

KILL THE WEEDS AND
SAVE THE MOISTURE

The chief essentials for successful
plant growth are constant and plen-
tiful supply of moisture and available
plant food. The next few weeks will
cover the most important cultivation
period for this seasons crops. Dur
inc this time they will make their
greatest growth and consequently re-
quire large quantities of moisture.
Most Frisco territory has recently
received heavy rains, so the soil is
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1916-07-11

well stocked with water If this
stored moisture can be held for the
use of the cultivated crops alone, good
yields may be expected, even though
the future rainfall is limited.
Loss Due to Weeds and Grass.
Experiments have shown that from
300 to 500 pounds of water are re-
quired to grow one pound of dry
matter. This being true, it follows
that when weeds are permitted TO
grow in our cultivated crops they are
robbing those crops of their moisture
supply. Weeds also use up available
plant food and often seriously reduce
the yield, even when there is an
abundance of moisture present.
Loss of Moisture by Evaporation.
When a crust forms on the surface
of the soil, water evaporates into the
air. This evaporation causes the
water deeper down in the ground to
to rise to the top, and it in turn is
lost to the plant. When this crust
is broken into fine particles, the
evaporation is checked, so that water
may be stored in the soil indefinitely,
provided a proper surface mulch is
Cultivation.
The simplest method for killing
weeds and maintaining soil mulch
is by cultivation. The kind of cul-
tiyation will vary somewhat with the
crop and local conditions. Cultiva-
ton should be frequent and not deep
enough to injure the roots of the
cultivated plant. The roots feed the
plant and every one that is broken in
lures the plant TO that extent Weeds |
are most easily killed just after their
seed have terminated. This is usually !
Just after a rain, so that cultivation |
should begin as soon as the ground |
S in order. The soil dries out as
leep as it is stirred, and the young |
weed plants die before their roots get |
, hold in the moist soil.
Many farmers stop cultivating too
Early. II should be continued as
ong as the teams and implements
,aD be driven through the field with
)ut injury to the crop. Many find it
advantageous to use one-horse cul-
ivator after the crop is too large to
lse the two-horse outfit.
Care should be taken not to get
90 fine soil mulch. Soil that has
,een worked to a fine powder will
prevent evaporation, but it also pre-
,ents water from getting into the soil
EASILY. A granular soil is Just as eff
ective as mulch and also permits
he rain to enter easily.
Cotton, corn, peanuts, kafir, milo,
eterita and all other cultivated crops
will suffer if you let weeds and grass
grow in the same field with them. No
farmer therefore, should lose any op-
portunity to cultivate his crops II
weeds are starting to grow, or the |
soil has become crusted or closely
packed.

and some cereals, such as oatmeal
and corn meal. 1t must be borne in
mind that the real nutritive value of
a food depends upon the amount of
nutritive ingredients that can be
made available to the body by digs
ton and assimilation. AS has been
well said. Eve live not upon what We
eat, but upon what we digest"
1t has been found that in the food
of ordinary mixed diet about 92 per
cent of the protein, 50 per cent. of
the fats and about 81 per cent. of the
carbohydrates are utilized by the
body. The protein in animal foods
is generally more digestible than that
in vegetables 1t is assumed Of
course that these figures are condi-
toned upon a proper preparation of
the foods. A nutritious, wholesome
food may be rendered difficult of di-
gestion and its nutritive value great
ly impaired by improper cooking or
preparation.
One of the factors which has let
to an increase in the costing of food
has been the great number of articles
of prepared food which have been put
on the market. These preparations
are in convenient form and put up in
an attractive manner. Nevertheless
the cost often is two or three times
as great as if articles were purchased
in bulk. BY discriminate buying of
oatmeal, corn meal, flour, vegetables
and other food products great econo-
my could be effected. Careful inves-
tigation by federal and state experts
has also shown that many of the
cheaper cuts of meat are fully as
nutritious as the expensive cuts many
American housewives think absolute
ly essential.
Regulating the Diet.
Two general rules are to be OBJ
served in regulation of the diet:
First, to chose those things which
"agree" with person, avoiding
those things which cannot be assimil-
ated without harm; and second, to
use such kinds and amounts of food
as will supply all the nutrients the
body needs, taking care that the di-
gestive functions are not overbur-
dened with superfluous material to
be disposed of at the cost of health
and strength. In our actual practice
of eating we are apt to be too much
influenced by taste alone, and are
prone to let natural instinct be over
ruled by acquired appetite. to the ne
glect of the teachings of experience.
The chief item in the living eXpen-
ses of a large majority of people is
the cost of food. Unfortunately it is
almost universally true that few per
sons, even those who wish to econo-
mize, know very little as to the com
binations of food which are best fit
ted for themselves as nourishment,
and have little or no information as
to the relation between the nutritive
value of foods and their cost. One
must not only be advised as to the
cost per pound of the different food
products, but also the amounts and
kinds of nutritive ingredients they
contain. In a general way it may be
said that, the cheapest food is that
which supplies the most nutriment
for the least money, and the most
economical food is that which is
cheapest and at the same time best
adapted to the needs of the user"

With the increased cost of living
in recent years, especially with the
generally higher prices of all sorts
of food stuffs, the problem of food
economy has become a more impor-

is the basis of health, in fact of all
efficiency. By proper understand

The carbohydrates include such
