WILD KITTEN PURRS AS
SOME PROVENCE PEOPLE
SMOOTH ITS FUZZY BACK

Certain citizens OF the Provence
neighborhood were having celebra-
tion yesterday, and it became so boist-
erous that the sheriffs office was ap-
pealed to by some of the more sedate
citizens, who reside there.
Dputy Sheriff Gaines went to the
scene of festivities, and found every.
thing as pictured to him over the
phone. There we're several very, very
drunk individuals; some who were
not so drunk as the first, and a whole
lot who had recently arrived, and
were just beginning to feel the kick
OF that old animal, designated as
white mule. The whole works was
sheriff, and a court of inquiry estab-
lished, to discover the source of sup
ply of all this joy juice that was
causing the dust to arise in the quiet
peaceful little hamlet of Provence.
1t developed NAT there was wild
cat still. No, 1t could not be consist
emily called cat; kitten would be
more appropriate But at any rate,
it developed that there was still in
that immediate neighborhood that was
furnishing the cactus juice which laid
the foundation of all the trouble.
Deputy Gaines began "stlll' hunt
around, and in a few moments had
the animal located in the kitchen OF
one Ed Donavan who was among the
ones classified above as very, very
drunk" and proceeded to dismantle
the plant. The still was a small
homemade affair, the principal part
being small coal oil can and q few
sections of bent pipe that was do
ing duty as a worm. Mr.. Gaines said
that the proprietor, who is now in
the county Jail awaiting the action
of the United States commissioner
told him that he could turn out about
five quarts of the stuff, that put a
whole neighborhood into a turmoil
every night,
Deputy Gaines said that he had
seen about everything in that line i'm.
aginable, but the coal oil can was
a new one on him, and it would not
be surprise to him. he said, If he
was to discover that some one was

With the still was found q small

HOOVER WARNS AGAINST
DECREASE IN FA2M| \ c
ESSENTIAL PR0DUCTI0A

Washington, May 26.-Decrease in
agricultural production may result in
this country becoming dependent up
on overseas food supplies, Herbert
Hoover declared in a letter to Repre-
sentative Riddick, republican Of Mon
tana, setting forth the former food
administrators views, "as to practical
measures to insure better returns to
the farmer for his labor and invest.
ment."
Derloring the absence of a con-
structive policy Of agricultural re-.
adjustment, Mr.. Hoover suggested the
creation Of a commission composed
Of highly trained farmers and skilled
economists and financial experts to
consider the causes and remedies for
the situation.
Asserting that the present high
prices Of commodities will sooner or
later" decrease, Mr.. Hoover said, this
deflation must not begin on the farm.
er. Shortage in production outside
the United States, wild extravaganza
and misuse of extended credits for
speculation and profiteering and non
essential production are contributing
factors in the present inflated prices"
he wrote.
when the collapse occurs" he pre-
dicted, intermediate dealers, will be
able to pass the greater portion to the
back Of the farmer"
war deterioration in our transpor-
tation facilities has created periodic
structures in the free flow of food
from the farmer to the consumer"
the letter stated. This has compel.
ed the consumer to buy during a
local shortage and the farmer to sell
his product during u local glut. The
continued initiation of credits since
the armistice has extended speculation
and profiteering by expending the
borrowing facilities to any food dis
tributor who wanted to indulge in
such practices and has widened the
margin between the farmer and his
market, likewise increasing the prices
of supplies that, the farmer must
buy"
The burden of taxation Is wrongly
distributed, Mr.. Hoover declared, point
ing out that the excess profits tax
authorizes appointment of food
manufacturers and distributors to
collect taxes for the government by
adding them to the margin between
the farmer and the market"

Sequoyah County Under Martial Law;

The Situation; Carter County Stockman
Upholds Stand Taken By Whitehurst

Sallisaw, Okla, May 26.-Northern
Sequoyah county today is divided
into two rival camps with the big
stock men on the west side line, lined
up in favor Of complying with the
dipping vat law, and owners Of nu-
merous small herds on the east side
bitterly opposing the regulation, and
they await anxiously word from Gov
ernor J. p. A. Robertson in reply to
the request Of John Whitehurst, Of
state troops be dispatched to the
scene to enforce the law and pre-
vent more trouble.
The real cause Of the dispute is
that the east side farmers, who are
stock men on n small scale only, con-
tend it is too much trouble for them
to drive their cattle over the hills
to the dipping vats, as their herds
are not numerous and they say there
is little danger Of the ticks spreading
seriously The big stockmen on the
west side, who have complied with
the law and had the tick quarantine
lifted, are afraid the ticks will spread
and cause re-establishing of the quar-
antine. Feeling has gradually grown
more bitter, leading up to the dyna-
hitting Of eight dipping vats. There
are Only Is watts left to serve the en-
tire north end of the county and they
are being guarded by the west side
farmers. There has been no clash be-
tween the rival factions.
All inspectors sent here to enforce
the dipping regulations have resigned
as a result of threats against their
lives

In speaking of the vat dynamiters,

who are resisting the efforts Of tho

cleaning out the deadly cattle tick.
Robert +. Scivally, one Of Carter

placing the county under martial law
and using every means in his power
tc crus- the open rebellion against

fit of the men who would make it
imperative.
Mr.. Scivally stated that the CAM
paign against the cattle tick in Car
ter county had been worth thousands
of dollars to himself alone, to say
nothing Of the benefit derived from
cattlemen at large, and he advocates
dipping until the tick be eXterrninated.
A countrywide dipping campaign has
been inaugurated in this county by

with hearty cooperation of farmers
who long since have learned the
