COTTON CONDITION IN
STATE NOT THE BEST

Oklahoma City, Oct. lS.-The Okla
homa Farm News, published by the
state board of agriculture, in the is
sue of Saturday, says in part:
with the exceptions of the rains
Thursday the week was fair with
temperature moderate. Very little rain
fell over the western third of the
state, the precipitation being light in
the central third and quite heavy in
the east. Harvest conditions continued
splendid and good progress was made
with cotton picking. haying and the
gathering of the immense grain crop.
The early sown wheat is coming
up well, with generally good stand
and drilling continues. After a gen,
orally good growing season. the farm
er is now contending with weevil in
his stored wheat, a shortage of cars
and a falling market.
Gathering and SHOCKING corn and
heading or cutting the large crop of
kaffir, milo and other sorghums are
making rapid progress.
The fifth alfalfa cutting is being
made, but is rather light, on account
of the lack Of rain during the past
several weeks.
"A heavy frost will bring pastured
stock to market and will mark the
beginning of winter feeding. Swine
raisers are able to see a margin Of
profit with corn at 81 or less per
bushel and hogs around Sl+ per hun
dred.
Cotton picking is being rushed as
fast as the supply of pickers viii per-
NIT. Many fields have not yet been
touched and others have not COM
pleted first picking. The larger per
centage Of the upland bols have
opened, but the bottom crop is later.
Both lint and seed of the early planted
cotton are very light this year; large
boil cotton which ordinarily averages
SO bol,s per pound now averages So.
Pickers are not available in sufficien,
numbers, but relief is now promised
with the influx of hands from Texas
and Arkansas, where the first picking
has practically been completed.

Santo Domingo, the capital OF the
republic OF the same name, in the
island of Haiti, is one of the most in
teresting cities in the West Indian
Islands. its healthy climate attracts
tourists from all nations and every
ship brings it's quota of pleasure
seekers.
The city has particular appeal to
the American, for here in the cathe-
dral is the reputed tomb of Column
bus. The cathedral built in the Span
ish Renaissance style, dates from 1912
and is an excellent example of the
architectural art of the sixteenth CEN
fury.
From the cathedral an excellent view
of the harbor can be had, and where
once Columbus little sailing vessels
swung leisurely in the bay, mighty
steel warships and passenger vessels
flying the stars and stripes can now
be seen. Columbus if he could but
look down from his resting place on
the balcony of the cathedral would
view with pride the clean-shaven,
white clad sailormen swinging through
the straight and narrow streets Of
Santo Domingo city.
Founded in 1896, the city is the old
est existing settlement of white men in
the Caribbean. 1t is surrounded by
ancient walls with bastions and is a
typical Spanish colonial town Of the
period of Columbus.
At intervals American warships an
Choir in the harbor to allow their
crews liberty and recreation. The city
has so many interesting subjects that
the visitor has difficulty in seeing them
all during one visit. The old forts, the
cathedral and the wonderful cocoanut
groves are all visited by the sailor
men. There is an abundant supply of
fruits near the town which can be had
for the picking and the sailormen take
full advantage of the opportunity Of

quaint little shops will assure the
shopper that the profiteer has yet to

Along with other states, Kansas
had come to accept strikes and

while the other party looked on
with entire unconcern, the right

Kansas crystallized into instant
action. out of this situation came
a determination of the Kansas peo-
pie to make future episodes of
this kind impossible. The legiSla-
ture of Kansas, called in special
session, passed an act establishing
a court of Industrial relations,
which is designed to prevent strikes
or lockouts in essential industries.

sometimes spoken of as "thd flower
of the graces," and 1.-THE beautiful" :
but this must have applied only to
her writings, says an English COM
menter, and not to her person,
which was small and dark
You will notice that this preju-
dice aga inst the small dark woman
persisted in England until fairly
recent times. The heroine or the
novels of a hundred years aso is
so apt to explain to the hero that
she cannot possibly be called beau-
tiful because she is short and dark.
And then the hero CALAMITY as
sures her that in his eyes she is
charming all the same.
But the heroine no longer apol-
ogi2es. She knows that the petite
woman is very popular and that
brunettes are so often counted
beautiful as blondes.
If you look through the papers
of history or browse through old
court memories you will often find
that it was the small dark woman
who made the biggest stir in one
way or another.
There was the celebrated Dan
seuse La Guimard of the eighteenth
century who is said to have scatter
ed as many fortunes as any woman
who ever appeared on the stage
BY one writer she is described as
plain, thin, dark and pitted with
the smallpox" and another says OF
her that she was ugly, thin and OF
sallow complexion and below the
average height" one of her rivals
once asked--and the question be-
came quite famous at the time
chow is it that that ugly little worn
doesn't get fat on such good feed
ing?"
Camargo, a Spanish dancer, who
created such a stir in France, was
of the same type. "She is neither
tall nor pretty" said one who
knew her and her dark eyes and
skin and hair were added to hel
list of ugly points. However, she
had a foot that was regarded as
one of the wonders of the eigh-
teenth century" and that made the
fortune for celebrated shoe
maker ~
