| headquarters are being erected rap
! idly. Each hangar is about 100x6O
feet and will house six machines.
Seventy-five machines will be sent to
the cantonment for use in training Lie
students for the aviation department,
| Here the men will not only learn tnc
art of flying. but will master the
mechanical part of the minions of the
air. The camp will furnish quarters
| for training several hundred men.
There is 40-acre stretch of ground
as level as a table near the hangars
which will make an ideal place TO get
the momentum to carry the machines
off OF the ground and also a fine level
place to land.
10000 Soldiers Camped There.
All of the troops from Missouri and
Kansas viii be sent to the carto lment
at camp Doniphan. The total number
of troops to he stationed here will he

All OF the First Oklaho:na infantry
Will be moved 10 Fort Worth, to the
cantonment there. The troops OF each
state are being moved to neighborine
, stttcs in order that the men VIII not
be subjected to the political influence
of their home states.
The original fort Is n low square
stone walled structure which was
| erected as an army outpost In 1861.
This old building was not built to
Withstand attacks but during the early
frontier days 1t formed post from
where the soldiers sent out guards to
patro the frontier. This old building
saw several small skirnlishes between
the various tribes OF Indians in OKLA
homa during the earlier part OF the
, Civil war. The loopholes on all four
SIDES give 1t enc atmosphere Of q real
fort. 1t is in the present city OF Fort
Sill In this old relic Of days now
in ancient history we can find
wonderful comparison of the progress
made since the early days BY compar-
ing 1t with the camp which Is now be-
ing erected.

working about the camp in their
civilian clothes and this was their

THE TENANT PROBLEM.

The tenant problem is easily one
of the most serious matters which
today confront the people of the
South. 1t seems that instead of i'm
proved conditions everywhere, in
some sections at least, matters are
growing worse. There is less of that
sympathy and mutualhelpfulness now
than seemingly existed a decade or
two ago. In many sections the land
lord is growing more ~distrustful of
his tenants while at the same time
the tenant is growing more SUSPECT
Gus of his landlord.
It occurs to me from considerable
observation that the share system of
tenantry is the most preferred. View
ed either from the standpoint of the
landlord or that of the tenant, it
semes that it is preferable. It would
seem to make mutual helpfulness ad-
vantageous to both, as the greater
the crop produced the greater the
share of each would be. Also the
lease system seems preferable to that
of tenantry at will. Under the former
the tenant has some incentive to i'm
prove the soil, is encouraged to d.
versify his crops, to SOW legumes and
in numberless ways to aid in the i'm
provement of the soil. Under the
tenant at will" system there is abso-
lutely no incentive whatever to plan
or to execute the work with a view
to soil-improvement except for the
present crop.
The alarming growth oftenancy in
this country land especially in the
South during the past decade, should
cause us to make at least an investi-
cation as to the causes of this state
of affairs, and to set about endeavor-
ing to correct these abusese which
have sprung up in our civic life. Here
is a field TO rthe legislator who has
the welfare of his neighbor and the
good of his country at heart.
It would be we'll for us to keep in
mind the words of the poet: I'LL fares
the land to fastening ills a prey,
where wealth ~accumulates and men
decay" and "a bold p~easantry a
country's pride, when once destroyed
can never be supplied."-C. C. W.

until spring to begin. In the north
ern part of the Cotton Belt it is now
getting late for the sowing OF pas
ture crops, but this fall and winter
there should be a very great increase
i'm our attention to preparing the
pasture lands: The washed and gull
lied places should be terraced and
washes stopped by every practical
means. The brush should be cleared
out, and where steumps are few and
other distractions to the running of
the mower are not numerous they
should all be removed; for we repeat
the mower is as necessary to a good
pasture in the South as a cu~ltivator
is to a corn crop.
Every possible acre, which has
been idle or that has been producing
improbable crops of corr and cotton
should be seeded to lespedeza next
spring in addition to the native
grasses now growing on it, and every
cow and hog grazed which these
lands will support. Of course, too
early and TOO close grazing is to be
avoided, but with proper attention to
the pastures this fall and winter and
a free use of the mower next sum-
mer in keeping down weeds and
briars the South can Craze much
larger numbers of livestock next
summer than ever before and in
crease her revenues by just that
for it has been we'll establish
ed that the increasing the pastures
on Southern farms does not lessen
our cotton production.-The Pro-

A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

1 would have our ordinary dwell
ing houses built to last, and built
to be lovely; a srich and full of
pleasantness as may be, within and
without, with such differences as
might do to express each mans char
acter and occupation and partly his
history. When we build, let US think
that we build forever. Let it not be
for present life, nor for present use
alone, let it be such work as our
descendants will thank us for, and
let US think, as we lay stone upon
stone, that a timesis to come when
these will be held sacred because our
hands have touched them, and that
men will say as they look upon the
labor and rock substance Of them
"See! this our fathers did for us!-

MAKE USE OF OUR CORN MEAL

, At the present time 12pound sof
corn meal sells for 75 cents and an
equal weight of wheat for 80 cents.
One pound of corn meal has 1928 CAL
cries of digestible nutrients, and
wheat flour has 1908 ~calories, accord
ing to our Government figures.
Thus for one dollar one can buy
27,648 calories in corr meal, and Is,
040 ~calories in wheat-a difference
of 9,608 ~calories.
Considering the fact that the ma
jority of Southern farmers buy their
flour and raise their corn, it would
seem that to use the corn is decidedly
better business.
"When 1 can sell corn at 1920 a
bushel it pays me to buy white -four"
remarked a farmer lately. There are
Sc pounds of corr in a bushel. He
therefore sells his corn for a little
less than four cents a pound, and
pays seven and a half cents a pound
for wheat. Corn meal runs 48 pounds
to a bushel, and at SO for 48 pounds
of meal it is bought back at six and a
fourth cents,-a distinct loss.
More than this, there is the pa
triotism of the thing; this leaving the
wheat to be sent to our boys in the
trenches. Even if there are those
who do not like corn meal, there is
surely compensation in eating like a
heroine-some degrees removed per-
haps, but still doing her bit in help
ing to win the Wharf.-The Progressive
Farmer.

RAPE A GOOD CROP.
Makes an Excellent Pasture and
Provides Feed in Short Time.

Clemson College,-Rape is the
best winter pasture crop if seeded
on good soil, say the farm crops mer
of Clemson College. 1t will come tc
a stand in three days, and is ready
to Craze in fifty days.
Early this fall turnips, mustard
and rape were planted at the same
time and on the same land. The sol
was prepared the same way. Yet the
rape was first to come up. Also, il
grew up very much faster than the
others.
South Carolina farmers should SOW
seed rape as early as possible now to
get the benefits of the good season,
The seed are cheap and a small
amount will cover a lot of land, and
will produce abundant pasture.
The crop is best adapted to. q
rich loan well prepared. 1t does
not prove very satisfactory on poor
soils. It is a fine pasture crop,
Chickens like it, and all kinds Of
livestock relish it. Also, it may be
used as a human food. It makes ex.
cellent salad.
Dwarf Essex is the variety to
SOW. Prepare a good seedbed, the
same as you would for turnips. The
seed may be either broadcasted OF
drilled in rows. If broadcasted use
six pounds to the acre; in rows,
about four pounds are sufficient.
Cover shallow as you would turnip
seed.

RICH LANDS A PRE-
REQUISITE TO PROFITS

With cotton at 500 a bale, the
difference in value between our av-
erage yield of one-third of a bale per
acre and'a yield of a bale per acre
amounts to $66.66. Even at $50 a
bale, THE difference is 1888 per
acre.
Now since the cost of breaking the
land and planting and making the
crops is practically the same, it is
evident that we have a very wide
margin indeed in which to pay for
the extra cost of making the extra
yields. Soil-improving crops and
fertilizers may be used rather lavish
ly if they will double or treble the
return.
But, as in everything else, there's
a right way to 60 about the matter
of getting double the average yields.
The use of commercial nitrogen will
often pay, but the use of atmospher-
ic nitrogen, supplemented by plenty
of acid phosphate, will pay better.
Moreover, it will furnish us the hu-
mus that IS per cent of u soils so
soreiy need.
Here, then, is our first and biggest
farm management problem, and its
solution is through the use of plenty
of velvet beans and peas in summer
and clover and rye in winter. These
mean rich lands and prosperous
farmers.-The Progressive Farmer.
