the Oklahoma State League of
Young Mems Democratic Clubs has
been awarded !. f. Church. He
will not only decorate the interior

SHOULD ENGAGE IN
LIVESTOCK INDUSTRY

J. II. Johnston, of Oklahoma
City, in writing of the recent sale
OF cattle by the Grady County
Shorthorn Breeders Association,
states that not a single animal went
to a point east of the main line of
the Santa Fe and south OF the Can
adian River. He believes that many
farmers should engage in the live
stock industry, and says:
in the interest OF diversified
farming, and also to build up your
part OF the state-which will soon
be tick-free territory-would it not
be well Tor you to suggest to your
people that many OF the progress
i've farmers ought to get into the
pured bred livestock business?
AT our little county sale at
Chickasha our COWS averaged $40
our yearling heiiers averaged $l6l; (;
bull calves $l64; and heifcr calves
$l35. Surely a business Of this kind,
which is both pleasant and profit
able to the parties engaged therein,
and is building up the soil and the
country at the same time. should be
encouraged in every way possible.

GRAIN.

Chicago, Feb. 2O,-Continued
scantiness of receipts tended today
to strengthen the corn market.
Trade, however, was small owing TO
the fact that prices were near 10 the
maximum limit allowed by existing
regulations. Opening figures, which
varied from the same as yesterday S
finish to Is cent higher, with March
not quoted and May Sl.26 T-S;al27,
we're followed by a Slight further
upturn.
Broad general demand sent the
oats market soaring. Offerings
were next to nothing, as a result
largely of likelihood that the gov
ernment guaranteed price on the
1918 wheat crop would be raised so

to l Ia cents higher, with May $50

Provisions rose with hogs and
grain. Arrivals of hogs were much
less plentiful than had been ex-
pccted.
