Farmers Learn mo rthern Grown" Tu

For years st has been the aim or
potato growers TO plant only north

been that potatoes grown IN a colder
climate were moro hardy and more
vigorous in germination than those
grown Whera 4 I is warmer. But
"northcrn grown has always been
more or less meaningless, for what was
northern grown for one region was
home grown for another. However,
Tennessee growers found Ohio seed
better than their own: Virginia farm

Now i seems that the reason for the
! superiority Of northern grown seed was
not a matter Of climate at all and that

In a recent lecture In the Columbia
University agricultural course, Profes-
sor Frank J, App of the New Jersey
College of Agriculture, told OF the sue

having, with the new idea OF saVinS
seed. According to Professor App tne
secret of the yirility Of northern grown
seed does not lie primarily In the lati-
! tude or the climate in which they are
grown but in the fact that the season
being short the frost kills the vines
before the tubers are fully maturcd. IL

MAY RAISE WHEAT IN
 MATANUSKA VALLEY
Attempt Will Be Made to Relieve Alaska of Depending
 On States

To assist in the governments food program, the first serious attempt to raise wheat in any quantities in the North will be made this year. accord ing to Royal A. Gunnison, of Juneau, United States food administrator and former federal judge of the First jud- icial district of Alaska. The Northern food administrator, who arrived in Se- attle Saturday, says that the fertile Matanuska valley, on the line of the new government railway, has been se- lected for this years attempt at wheat growing. This is along the pol icy of trying to make Alaska less de- pendent on the states for foodstuffs during the war This year big saw ing in food fromthe outside was affect ed through the growing of potatoes and other vegetables. Nearly every home, road house and miners cabin in the North had its own garden this year, said Mir. Gunnison, and the Alas kans have entered periodically into the idea of food saving Pork, he said has almost entirely disappeared from the markets in the North. excepting the local product raised in the vicin. ity of Juneau.
 "The food administration's program offers some problems in the North" he says. For instance, when we were ordered to use wheat substitutes we found that we didn't have more than a ten days supply to carry out this program in coast towns. In the in terior the lack of barley, rice, oatmeal and other wheat substitutes will make it impossible to carry out the new wheatless program"
 Mir Gunnison is not in favor of the killing off of game in the interior un- til absolutely necessary, as the rein deer and caribou are the only sources of food supply in cases of emergency. The Alaskan food administrator leaves for Portland tomorrow to at- tend a conference of the food admins. trators of California Oregon, Wash ington and Alaska-Post.Intelligencer.

him and wanted a permit to have
four barrels of water each day TO
water his flowers.
The mayor said while there are
many reports of fragrant violations
of the ordinance, and want OF effort
on the part of many people to con-
serve the water supply, there are
some who were trying to do all they
can to help. He told of some peo-
pie not allowing the used water to
flow from their bathtubs, but were
carrying it out to water their trees,
and others are using wash suds for
this purpose.
The minutes of a called meeting,
held Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock,
were read, showing that the contract
for experimenting the supervising
of the construction of the work nee
essary to secure an additional water
supply had been awarded Mcintosh
& Co. of Oklahoma City.

Health Officers Report.
The report of City Health Officer
Willard for the month of May was
received and filed. 1t showed that
he had treated ll2 cases during that
month, filed five complaints for vio-
lation of the sanitary and pure food
laws and had served thirty notices
on persons to cease violations of the
sanitary laws. He again recon-
m'ended the erection of an emerg-
ency hospital in the city and asked
that the health department be not
overlooked in preparing the budget
for next year.
1t was shown that the oil engine
at the pumping station is broken
and in poor condition; that it had
been badly handled, evidently by
some person who did not know how
to operate it. A representative of
the factory was present and stated
that to purchase the necessary parts
and rebuild the engine so it would
be as good as new would cost about
81 500. 1t was voted to have the
repairs made.
The commission took a recess
subject to the call of the mayor.

Empire Takes Over Brownwood
Pipe Line.

Tulsa World The Empire Gas
and Fuel Company has closed a deal
whereby it takes over the pipe line
formerly operated by the Producers
Pipe Line and Storage Company OF
Brownwood, Texas, and the trans
fer of properties will be made july ].
1t is said that the Empire will
boost the price of Brownwood crude
TO the regular market price OF Mid
Continent crude from its present
price OF sos per barrel. AS the
Producers Pipe Line and Storage
Company was an organization OF all
producers in the Brownwood field,
the Empire will control the price OF
crude produced in that field.
The above probably marks the
beginning of the Empires pipe line
work in north Texas. If drilling
operations in the vicinity OF Brown
wood are as successful as they now
appear to be, the line from Butler
County TO Gushing will probably be
extended south. Reports from
Brownwood are 10 the effect that
production of that field is now near
the 3,000-barrel mark due 10 com
pletions west OF town, and while
this may be little high, there is
little doubt but that it will produce
more oil hereafter than it ever has
before.

With hot winds and the thermom-

there is not very much activity in
the oil fields. Even the wildcatters
are inclined to remain within reach
of an electric fan, and it will require
something more than rumor to
start them on run for new FL

story of liquid wealth beneath the
townsitc of Comanche, Okla, and
The Oklahoman today carries a
yarn OF big scramble for leases on
town lots at that place, but it is
altogether probable that the scram-
bic will be confined to few curb
stone brokers of that locality. 1t
will take something more than a
news item to the effect that the En-
pirc Gas and Fuel Company has
taken a few leases in the vicinity of
Comanche to startle real oil men
enough to send them rushing after
town lot leases, at least while the
weather remains as it is at present.

Important Meeting Called.

An important meeting is called
for Monday, July 8. at Oklahoma
City for the formal organization oi
the Oklahoma chapter OF the Amer
lean Mining Congress.
The meeting will be in the nature
of conference between the produc-
ers Of oil gas, coal and metals in
Oklahoma. and, incidentally, those OF
the bordering territory.
The ever-changing conditions OF
the present confront the producers
with problems which are becoming
more and more evident, and the re-
construction period, which must
necessarily follow the declaration of
peace, will bring more problems, in
Guiding those of marketing, trans
portion, labor and costs. 1t is this
combination Of conditions which has
led to the organization of a chapter
of the American Mining Congress,
wherein the Oklahoma fraternity
may work in conjunction with the
recognized mouthpiece OF the min
ing fraternity at the national capi-
tol.
The call is signed by P. c. Dings,
Ardmore, as chairman OF the organ
