CARELESSNESS AND FIRES

Popular Science Monthly: Dur
ing the year 1917 our national for
ests were devastated by 1914 forest
fires. According to the report of
the forest service OF the depart
ment of agriculture, all these de-
structive fires, with the exception
OF 2,l32 whVh were caused by light
ming, could have been prevented;
952 were undoubtedly incendiary
fires, while the rest were due to
purecarelessness OF campers. hunt
ers, railroads, settlers or travellers.

ID R. FRANK P. DAVIS
FOR cow RN 0 R
CONCEDED TO BE ONE OF
THE TWO LEADING CAM
DIDATES.
WHY DAVIS WILL WIN

| DR.. Davis will win at the com
ing primary for two reasons-twc
reasons which should be the essen
tial qualifications of eevry success
full candidate: (D because of hi!
character as man; (2) because o.
the things for which he stands.
He stands for O Loyalty ant
Patriotism; (2) Equal Suffrage
(5) Prohibition; (4) Military Train
ing in High Schools and a State
Military Institution; (5) Full time
for teachers; co. A thorough Geo
logical survey of the state; % Ex-
emption of the soldiers property
from taxation; (S) Reduction OF
state expenses to a war time ba-
sis; (9) School of Mines and oil
experiment station.
Most of these principles need no
comment but we do wish to call
your special attention to the plank
requiring a geological survey of
the state. Such survey would re-
veal the probable location OF oil
and minerals, knowledge that the
landlord has a right to, and that
would mean untold wealth to the
people OF the state. Our state IS
exceedingly rich in oil and miner
ais which only requires the knowl-
edge of the expert to bring to light.
Such survey not only would show
where they are but also would show
where they are not, and would save
the waste OF prospecting in unlike
ly places. 1t would pay the people
of Oklahoma to elect DR.. Davis on
this plank alone.
Another proposition we wish TO
call your attention TO is that OF
exempting from taxation the prop
erty of the men IN the military
service of the country. There is
not a loyal Democrat in the state
who would wish to burden a man
with taxation who is carrying
gun in defense of the Stars and
Stripes, and we should support the
man who Is in Tor removing the
burden.
who Is Frank p. Dsvis7 He Is a man
who has lived in Oklahoma sixteen years:
who is well known TO thousands Of her
people: who received the largest vote
ever cast for any man in the state. who

dreamed that he was in heaven, and
of course, in the choir. But even
he had not imagined what a fine
voice he had. There were millions
of sopranos, contraltos and tenors,
but he was the only bass present.
During a chorus Gabriel, who was
conducting, waved hand to the
Welshman and whispered. Not
quite SO much bass, please"

Ripened by Cooling.

Popular Science Monthly: Sun
shine is not in the least necessary
for ripening bananas. All that is
necessary is to subject them to a
heat of about Is degrees for about
eight or ten hours, and then grad
ually cool them to a steady temper
ature of about 60 degrees. This
quickly produces pleasing golden
color, and renders the fruit firm
and of very desirable appearance
for sending to market.

Life: A man and two women

seized in the raid by local officers
on the Henderson road the night

TOWN MEETING RAISES
 TAX 1-2 MILLS
Town Requires $s5,ooo, Which Neces- sitates the Raising of the Ttx.

Danielson, April l.
 Kiilinglys tax rate was jumped from 15 to 16 1-2 mills at the ad- journed annual town meeting Monday evening and April 29 was set as the time for correction. The meeting was very largely attended. Selectman Charles A. Downes explained in detail the financial means of the town for the remainder of the current fiscal year and submitted figures to show that $95, ,0e0 would be required to meet the gross financial requirements of Killingly. More than s21, GOO will come back in credit, however. so the net needs will just overtep s74,000 which sum can be raised by Is 1-2 mill tax on the new grand list. Greatly increased costs of commodities re- quired in running the towns business and increased labor cost are respon- Sible for the decided increase in the budget. The meeting adopted the budget presented by the selectmen after resembling the budget vote that was passed at the special town meet ing in November.
 All of the matters that were on the warning for special town meeting held after the adjourned annual meet ing were unfavorably acted upon. The propositions included revaluation ot the property of the town, on payins for teams that are on town work $1 a day. Attorney Harry B. Back was chairman of the meeting.
