berry plants, and the rust was worse
nearer the plants than father away.
The only place where any rust could
be found in wheat up to the middle
of June was near barberry plants.
This and other striking evidence
leaves little doubt in the minds of
those who have campaigned against
the barberry that it is the principal
factor in spreading infection.
E. c. Staknlan, of the Minnesota
Experiment station, who headed the
campaign in the central west for the
United States government; E. M.
Freeman, also of the Minnesota Ex-
pertinent station, who had charge of
the campaign in Minnesota, and A. c.
Ruggles, state entemologist, believe
that the state should completely era
dictate the barberry as early as posi-
BILE before it has a chance to esta-
blish itself as wild plant and thus
become constant menace to the pros.
perity of Minnesota's farms.

TIME TO GET ON THE MAP

The coming Legislature is to be
asked to spend 100000 for the next
two wears to advertise Minnesota as
a summer resort.
The bill may appear large to prac-
teal legislators who see IL lakes but
p problem of drainage who see in
trees but an obstacle to the tllllng
of the soil, who see in fish but SO
many ounces of good or bad meat
who see in river but an abandoned
medium of travel.
But such an attitude is OIL indie
alive OF an unfortunate and unfrult-
full provincialism. The savage or the
peasant may think nothing of the
most enhancing natural beauty in
the world if it may fall to his lot to
live beside it. We of Minnesota, be-
cause we live in the midst of it, may
'easilv fail to realize the unlimited
beauty of that part of the earth in
GUIDED in our state boundaries.
How, then, can we and our legis-
lators know of it? One answer is
by seeing and realizing what other
regions have. East of the Rockies
there is no state endowed with the
beauty and outing possibilities with
which Minnesota is clother. We
have lesser rivals in Michigan, Wis
consin and Maine. And we are less
visited by vocotionists than any of
these states.
But how many legislators Know
what we have in Minnesota? That
is the second great point Have our
lawmakers been up the st. Croix
Have they motored on Mile Laos or
camped on Leech lake? Have they
seen the quaint origin of the Mis-
sissippi? Have they canoed on the
Rainy river? Have they fished OF
/ lust few of the small interior
lakes? Had they seen but a tenth
of the vast fairyland of minnesota
beauty spots, 100000 would look te
them like a nickel.
- So great are the outing allure
Rments of Minnesota that we may
call many parts of it virtually unex
plored If the Mississippi river from
st. Paul down were as much adver'
tised as Yellowstone or Glacier parl
we dare say it would be famou:
and as popular. We haven
scratched the surface yet of Mime
sofas outing possibilities. A million
dollars invested instead of 100000
would more than pay for itself il
returns.
But all that is necessary now j.
to "get Minnesota talked about.
This accomplished our lakes, rivers
and forests would plead their owl
cause Let us first through q small
investment, get minnesota GIN The

WHEAT ACREAGE
is BOOSTED BY
GOVERNMENT AID
Loans to Farmers in County
Amount to $69,360; Will
Plant 23,120 Acres Here.

One of the largest wheat acresges
in the history of Grady county will
be planted this year as a result of the
government seed loan here of which
$C9,3G00O, according to the RECORDS
in the office of J. w. Owens, county
farm agent. This amount will pur
chase the seed for the planting of
23,12O acres, Mr.. owens says.
Yesterday was the last day in which
the farmers could make applications
for the federal loan. All apphca-
tions not in the hands of the Wichita
office by - o'clock last night will
be given no consideration, Mr.. Owens
states.
Only two per cent of the applicants
from Grady county was turned down
and most of these were annulled be-
cause Of the failure of the applicant
to show that he had been the vic
tim Of two successive crop failures.
Most all the money derived from
the loan is now in the hands Of the
farmers. Several applicantions We're
made at the last moment, however,
and the money cannot be had until
the early part of next week.
Reports show that the loan in
Grady county was well distributed
The Minco and Tuttle districts.
which were the most lightly hit by
the drooth, possessed practically
enough seed to plant large acreage,
and therefore applica ions from there
were very few.
A total OF 400 farmers accepted
the government offer of assistance.
and the average acreage to be plant
ed with the government loaned
money will be 60 acres per farmer.
In many cases the wheat over the
county has been planted and larger
portion is in its infant stage of
growth Some of the wheat will be
pastureable within thirty days the
county agent thinks.

White. The order advises Mr.. White
to prepare to leave Chickasha imme-
diately upon receipt of further or
ders.
Recruiter White does not know
just where be will be sent, but says
he will probably be assigned to duty
at the Oklahoma City office. or may
be transferred to sea duty.
The extension of the selective draft
law scope, which enables the sending
of contingents of drafted men into
the naval service, is given as the
cause for the closing order.

~ THEATRE wv
"The House of Mirth"

A Metro all-star feature play from
Edith Wharton's story by the same
name.
Edith Wharton's The House OF
Mirth," one OF the most wonderful
plays ever produced will be the at
traction at the Sugg theater tonight,
in which will be seen an all-star cast
of Broadway players, everyone of
whom is a star III his or her own
right.
The story centers around a young
society girl, Lily Bart, played by
Katherine Harris Barrymore, who has
been brought up in effete luxury and
then left penniless at the death Of
her parents Living with a wealthy
aunt, who will not tolerate her reck-
less extravaganza she decides to mar
ry for wealth and resolves to sell her
self to the highest bidder, thereby
throwing over the man she really
loves.
She becomes involved in scandal
and divorce and sinks lower and low
er in the social scale. Through the
love of good man, however, she is
reclaimed and finds happiness such
as she has never had before. The
story is gripping and intense and
such a revelation of social conditions
of today that it will awaken many to
the realization that the Orientals who

al than many members of our own
society. The all-star cast contains
such illustrious players as Henry Kol-
ker, Joseph Kilgour, Sydney Bracy
and many others of equal fame.

That necessary work preliminary
to he actual construction of the gas
pipe line from the Gorton wells t

statement Of Dr. r. II. Williams OF
;he Corton Natural Gas company this
morning.
In speaking Of the proposition, DR..
Williams said, Before anything can
be done now, the approval of the
government must be secured We do
not anticipate any trouble on this
score, as the emergency as to coal
for fuel is acute and the presence of
natural gas in Chickasha would great
ly relieve the situation. | am fully
confident that our operation will be
approved,

ton to the Capital Issues commission
and have had advices that in its pre-
liminary state, it has passed inspec-
ton of the Kansas City board by a
unanimous vote. It is now before
the commission at Washington and
will be acted upon this week, we
have every reason to believe. AS
soon as we get the approval of the
commission, we will be in position to

Press dispatches of yesterday car
ried the news that the Oklahoma Nat

state capital.

Whether or not the contracts secur-
ed With Cement field operators called
for gas to be furnished the Oklahoma
City line from the Gorton or Fortuna
wells or whether the pipe line men
were simply betting on future pro-
duction, was not given out.
1t was pointed out by oil and gas
men, however, tht the Oklahoma
Natural has certain knowledge of
where they are Sitting" taking into
consideration the fact that they are
planning to spend many thousands of
dollars to construct the line, accord

The Oklahoma Natural is a $2,-
100000 corporation and, it is under
stood has plenty of available capital
with which to push whatever project
they undertake The first reports
on the line are to the effect that 1t
will be IL inch main.
No information is available as to
the survey Of the line close to Chick
asha, but those who are CLOSE to the
source of information state that al
though the line will pass not a great
distance from this city, Chickasha
viii not, in all probability, be per-
mitted to tap the line, resolving the
proposition into a separate gas pipe
