Oklahoma has a sufficient supply OF
wheat TO feed the state and no shortage

Frank Foltz secretary Of the Oklahoma

his attention was called TO a statement
OF Harry A. Wheeler. Illinois food ad
ministrator. that the supply OF wheat in

days before the new crop starts coming
in next July
An exhaustive report Of the amount
OF wheat held in the state and the
amount needed by the state was submit.
ted to the milling division OF the fed

month. said Mr. Foltz and when at

Mould be given immediate attention

The Oklahoma mills running at 70 per

result in loss to householdcrS, he SAID,
through the flour being damaged while
improperly stored.
\ The milling of kaiir, cotton seed and
ieterita, which has been proposed, SAID
Mr.. FolI, would diSarrange the pres

,would be better for housewives who

"There is no economy IN substituting

o. HENRY's METHOD OF WORK
Writer Gathered Little Material for
the Remarkably Interesting Stories
He Turned Out.

o. Henry in his real work could write
only by the light within. There was
no elaborate scheme of preparation to
take the place of the inspired word.
He read nothing, or next to it. He in
veStigated nothing. He saw nobody
He had no propaganda, no views to ex-
pound, no lesson, in the meaner sense
to teach. His was not the dull indus
try that investigates, notebook in hand,
the Slum, the factory and the mar
ket place, and turns the mass of accu-
mulated fact into the vast contempo-
rary novel that pours its slow current
of alluvial mud through the channel
of a thousand pages.
Ignorant-undoubted except of life
itself gloriously ignorant he was. No
college, not even theological school,
could have matriculated him. Even of
New York, so they now tell us, he knew
practically nothing. But of little
threads and patches, a vision of a bag
gard face seen for a moment In
crowd, fallen word, the chance glance
of an eye-of such as this interviewer
with the cross thread of his marvellous
imagination, he did his matchless work.
Let it so rest as his best monument.

older child finished his book of stamps
first, and then watched the younger

but sympathetic elder.
When the booklets were completed
the older child read the stories and
pointed out the suitability of the poster
stamps and their shortcomings, and
the other child did the same with the

played with the baby for awhile. until
the mother felt that it was time to

declared that he should be the conduc-

lap, played the role of a passenger.
In few minutes the field of opera
tons was extended beyond the seats
occupied by the family. and every pas
senger in the car was given an oppor-
tunity to hold ticket to some remote
destination. Even the nervous person
declared that she would be glad to
travel to the end of the line in such
good company.
When the train did at last get to the
end of the line, after eight hours of
travel, the mother took off the three
children that had aroused the appre-

were very tired, but still good-natured
and ready for any new excitement that

girl is very susceptible to colds, and.
in fact, this is the only winter and

When Vap-O-Rub is applied to the
