WILLIAM ROCKS REVUE

Authorship of the book OF William

mystery. On the program II is an
nounced as having been written by
lingo. However, there was q book
once. and IL sounded most amusing
when read In the script. but. like
most musical comedy books, il had
to be rewritten In the course OF re-
hcarsals. The result was that Will
liam Rock and Billy Il. Van took ad-
vantage of their long cx5erience in
the comedy world and rose TO the
emergency. They had been pursu-
Ing laughs for so many years that
they could track good one To its
lair without the slightest difficulty.
II WAS extremely easy for them to
concort a number OF comedy scenes
that could not fail in effect and yet
would blend with the musical num-
bers. AS the result. there Is said
TO be legitimate reason for every
thing that takes place In Rocks
Revue. and 1t is due to the expert
knowledge of the stage possessed by
both Mr.. Rock and Mr.. Van. The
new revue will be seen here at the
Strand Thursday. Friday and Satur
day and Saturday matinee. and

FARMERS ARE URGED
TO REDUCE COTTON
ACREAGE 50 PERCENT 7

Walker Colbert, president Of the
Oklahoma Cotton Growers AssCcia-
tion has received communication
from the president Of the Arizona di-
vision containing q petition and ask
irg that the same be signed by grew
ers piedeing to reduce the cotton ac-
reage 90 per cent next season.
Mr.. Colbert stated that he was of
the opinion that It would be good
idea to call county and state wide
meetings to present this matter to
the growers and ask them to pledge
to cut the cotton acreage in half
in 1921.
On the other hand ]. A. Whitehurst,
president of the state board OF agri-
culture does not wholly agree with
such proposition according to a tele
gram sent by him to the Chamber OF
Commerce at Memphis. Tenn, eX-
pressing regret that he would be un-
able TO attend a meeting called by
that body to consider this problem.
Mr.. Whitehurst however, advises farm
ers to plant no more cotton than they
can harvest with their own labor, and
the labor available in their imme-
date neighborhood. He predicts that
as result of falling prices the ac>
reage Of cotton planted in Oklahoma
next year will be from % to SO
per cent less than in 1920. His mes
sage is as follows:
II am not in favor of artificial
agreements to restrict the acreage
crop production, on the other hand
| think it is a matter Of prudence
and good sense for farmers next year
to be conservative in their planting
They should not put in large crops
of cotton which they will be un-
able to harvest without going out
side their own families and commun'
tiles to get expensive labor"
The yield OF cotton averaged much
larger in Oklahoma this year than il
did last year. In many districts yields
of 1000 pounds Of seed cotton to the
acre were frequent, while an average
of 600 was considered normal.
Total wagon receipts here so fai
this season are close to the 10000
mark, with a lot of cotton yet in the
fields and with nearly every farmer
in the county holding bales at home
waiting for a better market.
