Gardeners of 1919. the home food pro-
ducers of the nation, must be the SOL
diers who will be the witnesses to his
ignominious surrender. War garden
ing was important; but the National
War Garden Commission declares that
Victory Gardening is still more i'm
portant. 1t points out that panic and
pestilence will follow in the wake Of
hunger and that there can be no real
and lasting peace until the food prob
lem is settled and the world restored
once mole to something like a normal
food supply.
Flight anarchy with food! Keep
the beast from spreading over the
world" That is the slogan, says the
Commission, under which the homo
food producers should go forth this
year to battle for the new freedom.
Food is the fortress upon which the
frontiers OF freedom must be main
tained. Raise food. more food, still
more food is the message which must
echo and reecho throughout the land
until every foot of vacant land Is cul-
tlvated. In this appeal to the people
the editors and the cartoonists will
assist; and they will add to the truth
of the old saying that ''the pen IL
Lmightier than the sword"

there was none on which they made
such n strong, such a steady such a
direct appeal as that OF food. This
applied both to the production and TO
The conservation OF food. The home
food saver was urged to save food by
the spoonful; the home food grower
was urged to raise food by tho spade
full. II was the small quantity saved
by each individual which bulked into
the hundreds OF thousands Of tons
that were shipped abroad. Similarly
it was the small quantity which each
war gardener raised in his little plot
that went TO make up the vast total
OF food thus grown The United
states Food Administration furnished
the editors and tho cartoonists with
much material on which they based

LIFE SENTENCE
FOR FRED HOGUE

This was sentence day in the dis
trict court. the day fixed for the
sentencing OF those who entered
pleas Of guilty, or were convicted,
at the present term OF court.
The first defendant called was {.
]. Sherman, who had been con-
victed OF manslaughter and his
punishment fixed by the jury at
four years imprisonment, lie was
not in court. 1t was shown that
he had been granted an appeal
had executed bond and left Ard
more. His attorney Judge Brett,
was called and he said there had
evidently been some misunder-
standing and that he did not think
Sherman had been notified to be
in court today, Judge Champion
said under this statement OF the
facts, he did not feel like forfeit
ing the defendants bond and
would fix time for the sentence,
naming March 10, and Judge Brett
said he would have Sherman in
court at that time
Ted Hogue, who was sharged
Jointly with Ralph Faulkner and
Bard Caldwell, of the murder OF 5.
NJ. Nations, and who had entered
plea OF guilty on February Il,
was next told to stand up and when
asked if he had anything to say
why sentence should not be pass
ed upon him, said he had not, The
court then told him that he had
been advised at the time he enter
ed his plea OF guilty that il he per-
sisted in it, it would be the duty
OF the court to inilict the death
penalty or to sentence him to hard
labor in the state penitentiary for
the term OF his natural lie. He
told him that governors and keep
ers of prisons are but human and
that men have died in prison under
such sentence; that still others
have been paroled, or pardoned
and what shall come to him, the
number of years he will remain in
prison, may depend upon himself
and advised him to be a model
prisoner. He said a man could be
a good or bad prisoner, just as he
could be a good or bad citizen,
He sfid there was man in a grave
out here in the county by reason
of his act; that since the begin
ming of time there had been pun
ishment for murder and all must
pay the penalty. lie then told
him he would be taken to the coun-
ty jaid and there confined until he
should be removed to the state
penitentiary at McAleSter, there tc
remain at hard labor, during the
term OF his natural life.

WICHITA FALLS
OIL MEN SHOW
NEW COURAGE.

Wichita Falls, Texas, Feb. 27.-I
Whether due to the fact that the
proposed blue sky law has re-
ceived a knockout blow in the
house OF the state legislature or
not, Wichita Falls seems today to
have resumed much of its rush and
hustle OF ten days ago. Early in
the week there was quite an appre-
ciable falling off in the crowds that
have througed the streets, but to-
day it is looking as lively as ever.
This resume coming on the heels
OF a report that the house has re-
ported unfavorably at least on some
aspects OF the bill has led some
here to think that many traders have
been lying low to see what would
be done with the bill. 1t is more
probable, however, that many OF the
transients that so to make up the
crowds have been taking a rest at
home and are just beginning to re-
turn, and it really looks as though
they were bringing with them their
wives, sisters, auntS and cousins.
OTTO Bradford, OF the Empire
Pipe Line Company, says the oil
scouts have been out on the prairieS
chasing tumbleweeds. He says a
Texas tumbeweed is the one thing
that cannot be run down with a
Ford--not even a naked Henry"
can hold its own with this pest OF
the plains. However, Otto says its
great sport racing with them.
Considerable excitement on the
streets was occasioned here this
morning by report that the Texas
Company's No. "A Bywaters well
in the Electra field had come in a
10000 barrel gusher. Inquiry at the
offices of the Texas Company for
this district failed to confirm the
rumor; on the contrary, Manager
McMahon states that the test is
temporarily abandoned at depth OF
$3.50 feet on account of tools lost
in the hole, and the rotary rig has
been moved away,
The casing in the Burkbridge test
on the Oklahoma side of the river,
opposite Burkburnett, has been set

ernments expert driller, has return

about two weeks, when the cement
has had time to harden, and will
superintend the drilling in. Several

Loyalty OF The Press

There has never been any other
period in the history OF the United

so Loyalty to the call OF the times. They

keenest and brightest thought was put
forth to stir up the enthusiasm of the
people to little higher pitch: and
how we'll they succeeded history will

from members of the Police Jury and
