BOUNTIFUL SEASON FOR
FARMERS IN OKLAHOMA

Oklahoma City, July 27.--Thc
prospects for the crops are "the
best in the history Of the state"
declared John A. Whtehurst, pres
ident Of the state board of agricul
ture, in commenting on the re
cent rainfall. He said the rains
would be Of benefit to broomcorn
and grain sorghums.
Mr.. Whitehurst declared the cot
ton prospects have increased so
rapidly during the last etn days
that everything now points to n
bumper crop A hot spell was
needed to push the crop, he said,
and now the cool weather will be
very beneZcial.
With the western part Of the
state threshing the biggest wheat
crop in its history and with the
corn crop over that section better
than it has been for years, add
to the bumper cotton crop now in
prospect, a season Of unprecedented
prosperity seems in store for Ok
lahoma farmers.

after 10 o'clock Meanwhile Shamrock
dropped her tow after rounding
Sandy Hook point and breaking OUT
an outer jib slipped away for Am
brose Channel
The wind had hauled into the east
ward, as it did yesterday at this
time and the challenger was able to
head for the light ship on the port
track. The ocean was filled with soft
spots, but Jersey fishermen believed
that before the day was over the
wind would get into the southwark
which would give the yachts a beat
to the outer mark.
At las the code flag ARP" was
set indicating south.southwest
course for the final race. This viii

Shamrock " today led Resolute
across the starting line in the finM
international yacht race to settle
the destiny of tho Americas cup,
The official starting time was the
same for both boats at 2:17:O0, be-
cause both had failed to cross with.

Although the official starting time
Of both boats remained at 217.00,
Shamrock actually crossed 40 sec
onds ahead Of Resolute. She flashed
across the line at 217:O5 and Reso.

Starting the 30 mile windward
and leeward course charted for this
afternoon, Shamrock had the better
Of it, her skipper berthing her nice

crossed the line.
Having beaten Captain Adams of
Resolute for position for the first
time in the series, Captain Burton
crossed the line on the starboard
tack and then came about on the
port tack apparently hunting for
better breeze under the Jersey shore.
Resolute did likewise.
The sea was very smooth and there
was very little quartering wave from
either yacht
The wind had picked up off shore
to about three knots, but few spec.
tators believed the yachts could fin

unless it freshened considerable.
.-r->hwest winds usually blow
stronger as the afternoon advances
and this probably was the reason for
ordering a start.

itself last night in a meeting at the
corner Of Broadway and b street at
which a number of men from Heald-
ton appeared and asked that Ardmora
give its support to J. A. Gillian 70,
that office.
DR.. G. c. Weith Of the First Pres

the chairman, Mr.. Murray of Heald-

the Coline Oil company; j. w. Sew
erline of the Twin State Oil com.
pany; j. G. Martin who is engaged in
the real estate business and Rev.

Following the talks that were made
DIR. j. f Young introduced Jack
Hyde, editor of the Healdton Herald,
who defended the fair name of his
city. Stating that his town had al

Buck Garrett
The town of Healdton has been in.
corporated under the statutes of the
state, Mr.. Hyde is the town justice
and Healdton has a board OF trus-
tees and a city attorney and is Or
ganized to enforce the laws of the
state.
The chairman of the meeting said
that petitions had been made to the
attorney general Of the state and 10
the attorney general of the United
States and that they had received
promises but only the front doors
had been locked and men had been
seen going in at back doors of joints.
The best Of feeling has always pre-.
vailed between Healdton and Ard
more and the meeting last night was
orderly and quiet. The attendance
was unusually large considering the
other attractions that were in the city
and the Healdton people We're given
an attentive hearing.
Women Interested
The women of the city are taking
an active interest in politics this year
and there were a number of them
present last night.
When the Healdton people had fin.
ished their talks j, A. Gillian, can.
didate for sheriff, was called for and
responded with 4 few remarks in
which he stated that If he were elect
ed sheriff he would enforce all the
laws of the statute books, and made
a strong appeal for votes.
The other candidates for sheriff
were present at the meetings and t
was evident that each candidate had
supporters in the crowd that had as.
sembled to hear the message which
Healdton desired to convey to Ard.
