Dr. Roy T. Fisher has moved here
from Sallisaw. He is with the fed
eral government and succeeds Dr.
Ward in the tick eradication work N
Carter county DR.. Fisher states
that the Board of County Commits
sioners at the May meeting will take
up the matter of raising revenue to
prosecute this work in the county and
he is hopeful that every farmer who
would like to have the county rid of
the fever tick would become interest
ed in the proposition and aid the
county commissioners in doing their
part of the work. The federal and
state governments are working hard
this year to organize the tick eradi-
cation movement so that all Of
southeastern Oklahoma will be above
he quarantine line within another
year.
Or. Hiatt of Oklahoma City, who is
nj the head of this movement in the
state. will meet here with the com
missioners the first Monday in May.

BRoomcORN A FACTOR
W. =. Kerr Observes Marked Increase
In Acreage.

That broomcorn is going to be a
factor in the fall receipts of the
farmers adjacent to Ardmore, specif-
ically around Ringing, is indicated
by reports reaching w. F. Kerr, Sec
retary of the Ringing Chamber OF
Commerce and booster of that town.
"The acreage this year is largely
increased and look for very large
crop" said Mr.. Kerr yesterday. The
farmers in our vicinity have been
greatly encouraged by the buyers,
some of whom have been to Ringing,
and have encouraged larger acreage.
The farmers are fully alive to the
possibilities, and this part of the
country is going to contribute some
of the best straw in the country. The
cotton acreage is going to be large,
but in my opinion the man who
plants peanuts and broomcorn is
going to show the best returns. a
large peanut buyer from the east
told me recently that every bushel
raised down here would get top price.
They are in greater demand THAI
ever

A HISTORIC STRUGGLE

America is regarded as the cham
pion of humanity and as being the con-
science of the world and for that rea-
son the doWn-trodden people of
Europe are looking to this country at
least for moral support in their eff
forts to obtain recognition before the
peace councils when the world war is
at an end.
The condition of the Jews in many
portions of the war zone is intoler-
able under normal circumstances and
now under the stress OF war is utterly
unbearable. The Jews of America
are to be congratulated that they have
begun work in an intelligent manner
to amelorate those conditions for the
present, and to place their race, fol
lowing the war, where it will have re-
ligious and political freedom. The civ
ilization of a nation can truthfully be
measured by the manner in which 1t
treats people of other natonalities
The treatment of the jew in Russia is
barometer by which the enlighten-
ment of the nation can be judged, and
no people can grow great while it
heaps indignities upon those who are
not able to defend themselves.
In looking at the results of the war,
one man sees the shedding of blood
upon the field of battle, another sees
the distress at home among widows
and orphans, while another sees Gnan-
cial wreck and ruin, but the jew is
steadfastly looking for a higher civil
iaation and with the faith of Abraham
is working now to obtain such re.
ligious and political freedom as all
nations and nationalities are entitled
TO.
The generous heart of America
will beat in unison with the purposes
of such of its citizens as shall devote
their time and money to give the
world that high ideal of civilization
that will result in the freedom of
their people in Europe.

their goods against their own inter

grave situation confronts us. That

CONDITION
Of CROPS IN
JEFFERSON co.
SAID TO BE AN INCREASE IN
BOTH CORN AND ALFALFA -
MORE INTEREST BEING TAKEN
IN LIVE STOCK.
CBy w. +. Kerr


Ringing, Okla, April 22.-Agricul-
tural conditions in general are salts
factory in this section of Oklahoma.
There has been sufficient rainfall for
the planting of all spring crops, al
though cool weather has made the
season little late Overflows in
creek bottoms damaged corn to some
extent, and some of it had TO be
planted over. Corn growing condi-
tions are good, and the acreage is
larger than normal, due to an in
crease of the growing of cattle and
hogs for the fat stock markets and
the desire generally of farmers 10
raise enough feed for all purposes.
The acreage of cotton probably will
be increased, due to the general Opin-
ion that war conditions will guaran-
tee another season of high prices
Planting is under way in some com
munites, but most of it will be plant
ed during the latter part of May. The
wheat acreage has been decreased.
Opinion prevails that wheat is not
well adapted to this section of the
state and this is backed by small
wheat production per acre during
the last few years. The oats acre
age has been increased and the crop
is looking well.
An increase in the acreage of al
falfa is noted this year, particularly
along river and creek bottoms, but
patches of il are small, especially
where cotton produces more than 4
bale to the acre. Peanuts are more
popular this year than ever before.
The Creel Grain company of Ringing
has advice from its eastern agents
that they will guarantee to buy every
bushel that can be obtained in this
region this year at the highest mar
ket price. This fact was made known
to the farmers in time for them 20
llltl tUSt lltII peanut lOl'tt-t'
The broomcorn region, which has
centered about Lindsay, gradually is
extending southwark this year, and
jefferson county probably will have
the largest acreage in its history.
Comparative failures in the broom
corn crop in the semi-arid regions
of western and northwestern Okla
homa, coupled with the ARRANGING
prices of brush, had to do with this
southwark trend. considerable bcoOm-
corn seed of good quality has been
sold by local grain dealers this spring.

the list of counties having farm dem
cnstration agents, AMI the work of ;he
agent during he last few weeks has
been notably effective. He came
early enough in the year to get his
ideas working all over the county. He
is organizing corn, cotton, pig and
