see all Of the writer's send in nice
letters. As for me, we'll, like to
read them after someone else has got
ont and looked for things and written
them M and sent them in to the News
and had 1t given to the public. Yes.
IL may be little selfish or lazy, at
any rate love to hear from SO many
oldtime friends. They say the easiest
places to get lost are in a great wild
eruess, or on prairie or in large city.
/ am lost as far as getting anything to
write I see lots of things and hear
lots of things that are of interest to US
here. but to reproduce and send 1t
there as news item, it would not be
of much interest to the many good
people that read the News.

Of Dallas this week. The prospects
for crops are fine. Wheat, oats and
corn are looking fine. / saw one field
OF wheat that was about 10 inches
high and good stand and of fine,
hea thy color. Corn is looking fine,
about six to ten inches high, and as |
passed thru the vegetable and truck
farms Just out of the city, it looks
like they could furnish the Kaiser's
army and then have enough left for
home supplies.

with good strong repremand' and al

Lizzie Prigmore's death. One more
good woman gone. Lizzie was always

We are still scared out here over the
Mexican trouble. The last picture
thrown on the public screen dld not
look bit good, besides it had hav'
or of burnt powder, blood and treacb-
cry. Not pleasant thought to dwell
on
"Oklahoma Jack do not get so
industrious and spend all of your time
in the strawberry field, to the exclus-
ion of the many readers of the News.
But if you do. don't forget that the
parcel post does business in Dallas, and
if there is anything like better than
a nice dish of awberries, it would
be two nice dishes of strawberries
I am glad to heaT that our friend,
"Oklahoma Jack" is doing well, ana
