GOOD DOPE FOR FARNIERs

Here are several extracts from the
April bulletin of the Oklahoma A.
& M. College at Saltwater, issued by
w. d. Bentley, state agent. 1t i'm
presses us as good dope:
Oklahoma land is all right for
corn, but the sky is uncertain. Plant
corn for roastingears and kafir for
feed, unless you have extra good
corn land.
Don't bet, unless the chances of
winning are at least equal. On most
Oklahoma lands the chances for a
corn crop are not equal The chances
are more than equal that kafir and
milo will make good crop in spite
of the drought and hot winds. The
farther west in Oklahoma the better
the chances that kafir will make
good.
When you have planted enough
feed stuff for all your farm and two
times as much garden as your fam
lily needs, put the rest of your land
in some cash crop.
For most of the State cotton is
the best spring-planted cash crop.
However, at present prices, Spanish
peanuts will beat the average cot
ton crop, especially on sandy soils.
There is a good profit in them at
so cents or more per bushel 1t is
easy to sell Spanish peanuts by the
carload, but it is sometimes difficult
to sell them in small lots.
County Agent Geo. R. Lea, of Gar
vim County, says that W. E. French,
of Lindsay, Oklahoma, sold last a
week or two ago seventy-six capons
at II cents per pound, amounting to
S1.2S each. For eating chickens
S1.23 is certainly some price.
Better send for your county agent
to teach you caponizing.
1t is not the county agents place
to do your caponizing, vaccinating,
and other farm jobs, but it is his du-
ty to help you to learn to do it your
self
The county agent is the represen-
tative of the A. & M. College and of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture in your county, and you
should send for him when you need
help.

If you use any considerable guam

doubles noticed that il is costing
you some real money these days If
the family consumption has Bept up

Former Corporation Board Expert An
nounees His Candidacy.

Henry Willmering for several years
statistician and rate expert for the
state corporation commission and now
assisting in the preparation of the
states case in pending railroad rate
litigation, announced Monday his can
didacy for the democratic nomination
for corporation commissioner to sue
ceed George A. Henshaw. Mr.. Hen
shaw has announced that he will not
seek reelection.
In regard to his candidacy Mr.. Will
mering said:
"It has always been a pleasure to
me to be able to work on the propo-
sitions that the corporation commits
sion has had to deal with and my can
didacy results from a gradually de-
veloped ambition to be able to apply
my ideas upon my own instead of 9TH
ers' responsibility. The place of a
commissioner is the only place in the
state anording this opportunity. My
extensive technical training has been
such that the members of the commits.
sion have seen fit to approve my being
retained in the rate cases temporarily,
and feel that, considering all the
facts, l am justified in offering my
services to the people as commits
sioner. have been encouraged in be-
coming a candidate by prominent men
in both public and private life"
From the formation of the corpora
tion commission, in 1907, until 1911 Mr..
Willmerirfg was statistician and rate
expert.

Governor Williams has been pc
titioned to appoint an industrial
commission for Oklahoma to be COM
posed of eighteen members selected
from the various commercial organi-
cations of the State. This commits
sion will be supported by these COM
mercial organizations and the en-
dorsement of the Governor is plan
ned merely to give official standing
to their work. Each member of this
commission is to submit material
covering the resources and conditions
in the section of the State which he
represents. The commission in turn
would mass this material and use 1t
in a campaign of education to the
people of the entire United States re-
garding the inducements and possi-
bilities that exist in Oklahoma, not
only in trade, manufacturing and
commercial way, but from a mining,
agricultural and general industrial
standpoint. 1t is argued that such a
commission would be given such
standing that its publicity endeav-
ors would be materially enhanced
by reason of its semi-official charac-
ter. A committee of members of the
Oklahoma City Chamber of Com
merce has been appointed to perfect
the plan"
