was the first pay they have received
since they were called out by the

CREEK COUNTY WILL HAVE
LIVE STOCK ASSOCIATION

Assumed Important Pro-
portions.
Special to The World.

Special to The World.
BRISTOW, Okla, Nov. 10.-Thru
the efforts of County Farm Agent ].
w. Riley 1t is believed there will be
organized a Creek County Live Stock
association, the nucleus OF which will
be the farmers in and around Brs-
tow. There are several herds of fine
cattle, including Herefords, Poll An
gus. Holstein, Shorthorns, and Jer-
seys on this side of the county. These
men are to be interviewed with pros
pect of getting them to form an Or
ganlzation. Breeders of hogs will also
be taken in, for the reason that there
does not seem to be enough farmers In
Creek county who have specialized on
one kind of stock to form different or
ranizations. Agent Riley thinks that
for the time being these men should
&c together and form one parent or
ganiZation.
He intends to make thoro can
vass of the situation, but already has
the promise of a number of men who
have fine herds OF several OF the kinds
OF cattle mentioned who have ex-
pressed a willingness to go into an as
sociation. The association will have
officers who will be strictly neutral to
all kinds of pure-bred stock. horses
cattle, sheep, or hogs, but the main
object of the association will be to
promote the betterment OF Creek
county's animaldom.
II is his intention TO hold a meet
ing here in the near future and have
the farmers attend It with the live
stock association as its prime object,
and It Is believed that the org6niza-
ton will be formed.

now, tho they realize that we do mean

are treated with what amounts to
brutality In some instances. Their

snubbed outrageously, are treated with
the utmost contempt, even If they try
