MONTHLY CHOP SUMMARY

The following monthly crop summa-
ry for June, 1917, has been issued by
the Oklahoma State Board Of Agricul-
ture. Frank M. Gault, president:
At this time of harvest wheat show
ed rendition of 6s per sent. This is
an increase Of z per cent over the con-
dition Of same date in 1916. From re-
ports received from our crop CORES
pondents, we estimate the average
yield of the total acreage planted at
95 bushels per acre. Estimating the
total yield for the state based on the
above figures, Oklahoma's wheat crop
will produce 27,113, 600 bushels. Up TO
the 25th Of June 81 per cent Of the
wheat crop had been harvested.
Oats showed a condition of 60 per
cent at the time of harvest This is
13 per cent above the condition of
same date last year The average
yield per acre Of this years crop is
255 bushels, according to estimates re-
ceived from our crop correspondents,
This assures Oklahoma of crop Of
24,435, 900 bushels. Up to the 25th of
June n per cent of the total crop had
been harvested The counties show
ing the best yield per acre Of wheat
and oats are the ones located in the
northeast part Of the state.
Corn shows a condition Of rs per
cent. This is 9 per cent below the
condition Of last month and II per cent
below the condition Of same date one
year ago.

AMERICA AT THE FRONT

II Is not without significance that
the first all-American units at the
front in France are made up of Ameri-
can nurses and American surgeons.
Six great base hospitals now fly the
stars and Stripes and men whose
names are famous in the annals of
American medicine are devoting their
skin and their science to the needs OF
the brave men whose bodies are shat
tered in battle.
The people of the United States are
a peaceful people 1t is only slowly
and gradually that they are worked
ND to the pitch of stern anger which
Is necessary where grim war is to be
waged. But we have always been a
mercilul people, philanthropic peo.
pie. We have always been nation
that prided itself upon it ability and
its desire to succor the needy, to bind
up the wounds of those who are hurt
TO feed those who are starving.
II is no surprise, therefore, to find
that our little armies Of mercy are at
the front doing their work of healing,
long before our bigger armies are
ready for the stormy test of battle. BY
and by those bigger armies will also
be in the trenches Of France, engaged
in bitter work, but doing it with a
view to the larger mercy-that Of pro-

ratio the archeologist. He continued
king Constantine Is a trickster and
he always gets away with it. He's as
bad as the two sharpers.
1.-TWO sharpers, getting stranded In
a country town, decided to gouge the
populace by means Of a hog rattle.
They got up a poster that said
"'To be raffied, a fine Berkshire hog.
Tickets, 20 cents
'The rattle went well. The two
sharpers made lot of money-$150, in
fact. Then came the day when the
result was to be announced.
"The sharpers read over their list
of victims and selected the man they
thought most gullable and meek, 10
him they wrote: N
"Dear Sir: We are happy To In
form you that the rattle Of the magnif-
cent hog was held last evening, and
you were the fortunate winner. We
hold the animal at your disposal, and
shall be pleased to forward same on re-
ceipt Of your authorization to do so.
We beg to congratulate you on the ac-
quisitlon Of this truly magnificent pedi-
greed hog
"But the winner had hardly received
this letter, the first' thrill of delight
had hardly warmed his breast, before
he got another mlssive:
"'Sir: We regret to inform you
that your magnificent hog died very
suddenly last night at 8 80 o'clock. We
do not know the exact cause Of death,
but would impute same to the hog

Owing to the existing sanitary regula-
TOMS, the animal had to be buried with
out delay. We shall be glad to receive

Constantine's, but like the allies, the
duped man was afraid to investigate,
lest worse befall."

RUSSIA is FIGHTING

Whether the Russians will be able
to maintain their offensive, so bril-
liantly begun, only time can tell The
fact that they captured over 10000
prisoners in the first two days fight
ing. however, proves their ability to
strike hard, in spite Of all the disad.
yantages under which Of late they
have been operating Ten thousand
prisoners is more than the British cap
tured at Messines; it is more than
either the French or the British cap
tured in the entire month of May.
The ability Of the Russians to strike
such a telling blow proves, probably,
another fact that their army has re-
tanned its vitality in a remarkable de-
gree. It indicates that the Germans
have seriously weakened their lines in
the east, both in men and in big guns.
Germany had evidently greatly under
rated Russia's remarkable recupera-
tive power, and had practically count
ed the new democracy out of this
years fighting.
If the organization back of the Rus
sian lines is sufficiently in shape to
supply the armies without delay, Ger
many may be in for a bad handling on
the eastern front. Given anything
like fair equipment and sufficient food,
the Russians are splendid fighters,
and they are in overwhelming num-
bers. Moreover, they will have back
OF them the national spirit, as the JOY
with which their brilliant advance
everywhere was hailed abundantly
proves. Russians now fight not for
the czar, but for themselves, and to
liberate their land from an invader.
If Russia really is back in the war
to anything like the extent indicated
by this first blow, it is impossible to
conceive how Germany can survive an
other year.-Wichita Eagle.

"THE WOMAN YOU ARE TO BE"
It All Depends, Says Writer, Upon
What You Put Into Your Head
as Days Of cirlhood Pass.

There comes a time in a girls life
when she passes from childhood into
the land of dreams and flowers, and
the question that now arises has to
do with the woman that she win be for
the rest of her life. Is she going to
furnish the nice, clean recesses of her
brain with things that really count, or
is she going to toss an indiscrlminate
mass Of jumbled nonsense into her
heart?
She has 1t within herself to make
her brain a power, to teach it to rea-
son, to cram 1t with intelligence, aHi
to force herself as a personality to re-
spond, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch.
There Is still another thing that she
may choose to do-she may decide to
leave it entirely empty In that case,
which is the saddest Of all, her eyes
will count for nothing, even though
they be beautiful, for they viii be ex-
pressionless; her lips that, closed, are
SO perfect in contour, when opened
will frame those tawdry nothings so
pitifully evident of the empty brain
behind them. Old age will have moth
ing Of interest in its wake, for the
wrinkles and lines that speak for
character will be absent, and the face,
pleasing in youth because of its fresh
beauty, in old age wiz become moth
ing but a hldeous mask.
Think well what you viii put into
your head, for you will purchase from
Life itself at q high price.
