money. There is difference, however.
Hundreds and thousands Of pennies are
spent by children--tots who want a
penny's worth of this or that. Many
Of the children have the habit Of put

can happen to a coin when placed in
the mouth Is wel1-known. A penny or

One knockout and nine decisions

lefts are more natural for them than
for men, but they can't land straight
one. When they try that the result
is always a haymaker.
"The girls from the farm are hus

that may explain why eight out of
nine decisions at our first show went

lion Of Necessities

Oklahoma City, April 1.-THE fol
lowing resolution passed by the
State Council of Defense, is of vital
interest to the entire state:
The government Of the United
States has called upon Oklahoma to
make sure this year of producing
food for the people of this state and
feed for the livestock on the farms
so that it may not be necessary for
us to call for the use of transporta-
ton facilities so greatly needed in
supplying our armies
The United States department of
agriculture, through its direct repre-
sentatives in the agricultural exten'
sion work throughout the state, has
formulated definite program of pro
duction based on accurate knowledge
of what should be done. The essen.
tlal feature Of this program is:
Smaller Cotton Acreage. =
"Not more than one-half of the
cultivated land on any farm should
be planted to cotton"
Supplemental to this recommends
ton and of equal importance with it
are the following recommendations
There should be a garden on
every farm, sufficient to supply home
needs, consisting chiefly Of products
which may be stored in their natur
al state or canned for winter use"
"There should be planted on every
farm not less than l acre of cane or
Sudan grass for each head of horses
and cattle on the farm.
Planting of Corn.
Corn should be planted only on
land where corn produced crop
last year good enough for seed this
year; other land being planted kafir
milo, or fetrita for grain for feed, and |
to peanuts for feed and sale.
EVERY effort should be made to
poultry production and to
produce on every farm a sufficient
supply of dairy products and of pork
or home consumption
County and school district coun-
Ills of defense are directed to see
o it that every effort is made to
ompIy with these recommendation,
dapting their application to differ
noes in local conditions existing
throughout the state.

Slight Damage by Frost.

o. c. Cooper the county farm agent,
states that the recent frosts have
damaged, to some slight extent, the
alfalfa hay and potato crops. "The
hay will be all right in time, but the
potatoes will do much better if their
tops are cut. AS yet it is too early
to ascertain whether any fruit has
been frost bitten. as fruit trees do not
show injury until the third or fourth
day after the frosts," said Mr.. Coop.
