OKLAHOMA COTTON MARKET
BETTER THAN OTHER STATES

The Oklahoma cotton market is high
er this year than in any surrounding
state. according to records of the
L. $. Bureau of Markets and of the
State Board of Agriculture.
II attribute this condition to the
cooperative marketing of good
per cent of the crop in Oklahoma
this year" says John A. Whitehurst
president Of the State Board of Agri
culture. "There is no question but
that the activities of the Oklahoma
Cotton Growers Association are res
ponsible for the higher price paid on
the streets in our local markets in
comparison with Texas and Arkansas
Local street buyers have been fore
ed to pay all the cotton is worth, and
in many cases considerably more. The
result Is that non-member growers
are benefiting as well as members.
In previous years, according to
government records, Oklahoma grow
ers have received on an average
pound less for their cotton than their
neighbors in Texas and Arkansas
On December /, 1920, the difference
between Oklahoma and Texas and
Arkansas market prices was almOs,
3 cents.
Referring to the Importance of q
knowledge OF grade and staple to the
grower, Mr.. Whitehurst says, Il be
lieve the Oklahoma Cotton Growers
Association will justify itself anc
doubly repay the expense incident tc
its organization and operation If II
gets for its members the benefit OF
the true grade and staple of their
| cotton when II is sold

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are
Using Recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre
or when it fades, turns gray. dull and
lifelcss Is caused by a lack of sui
phur in the hair. Our grandmother
made up mixture Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful and thousands of women
and men who value that even color,
that beautiful dark shade of hair
which is so attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of 9TH
er ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell II has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and sulphur Compound Is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance of abundnce. adv.

through the three prairie provinces,
equal any to be found in the east
,r south. The growing of corn has
made great Roadway in this region
in the last few years"
A few years ago corn was grown
only for fodder in Western Canada.
In this form it furnished consid-
cradle part of the silage crop. But
the development of corn, like the
Dent variety, adapted TO northern
climate has made ear corn large
crop. Dent corn this year has been
an abundant crop in .he Red River
Valley in Manitoba. In other parts
of the West settlers. swarming in
to win independence and prosperity
on rich land still to be had at COM
paratively low prices, are including
corn among the crops Of their
diversified farming programs.
Under water in the great irri-
gated sections of Southern Alberta,
Dent corn yields 60 bushels to the
acre. Sweet corn Yields 1000
dozen to the acre which, at an aver
age of 30 cents a dozen, is $500 an
acre. Dent corn of the Southern
part of Western Canada compares
favorably with that from the corn
belt of the Western portion of the
United States.

Federal Farm Loan System

The federal farm loan system is now
in full operation, so far as the fed
eral land banks are concerned, and
is closing loans AT rate which will
result in u greater business from July
| of the present year TO July l next
year, than has been done during any
preceding year. The twelve federal
land banks are now closing loans at
the rate Of q million u month each,
This is. of course, not uniform, but
the total loans closed during the pres
cnt month will reach tnat volume
and u somewhat larger volume Is an
ticpated to meet this volume of busi-
ness, approximately $3.50, ,000, 900 in the
aggregate-but the question OF meeting
all the demand is quite u different
one. The farm mortgage Indebtedness
Of the country, as you know, Is vari.
ously estimated at from four TO sew
en- billions Of dollars and II would
be, cf course, a physical impossibility
TO take over this volume of business
In one or five years.
Secretary of farm loan
associations are pretty definitely ad-
viscl by the respective land banks
as to the approximate amount of
funds that will bc available in their
territories and should be able to give
inQuiring farmers fairly definite
statement as to whether or not they
can be taken care of, and Of the time
when their loans will be reached in
regular turn, and each one will then
have to determine for himself whether
or not the federal land bank can get
to his case in timc TO serve his need.
We are very hopeful that the major
portion of the demand may be met in
an orderly way, although frankly II
seems at present somewhat excessive

Formula for Strength of Rope

How strong Is rope? At the Bu'

Department of Commerce, = tests have
been made that have resulted In
answering that question with u for
mula.
For thrce-strand regular lay manila
rope from l.2 to 4 l.2 inches in diam

give the breaking load of the rope;
The average breaking load in pounds
equals 5000 multiplied by the diam
eter of the rope in inches, multiplied
by the diameter of the rope increased
by one.
This will give. of course. the aver.
age maximum weight that the rope
will hold. but the working load or the
load that contractor or safe haulcr
may apply with proper safety and

COUNTY EXPENSE
FOR YEAR EXCEEDS
MILLION DOLLARS
Budget Makes Provision for
Continued Growth and I'M
provement of Maui; Liberal
But Not Extravagant.

Maui's expense account for 1921
will be $1,177,325, according to the
figures of the board of supervisors
shown in the budget which that body
adopted at its meeting last week. This
is in addition to any public improve
ment projects authorized or to be au-
thorized by the legislature for the pur
pose of which bonds of the territory
are sold. 1t is the amount on which
is based the tax rate for the year.
Next in size to the operating eX-
penses of the county govrnment which
is placed at $3.50, $50, the largest single
expenditure is for schools, there being
two items, one of 100000 for special
schools, providing for the high school
building and other construction work
and the other school funds" which
amounts to $165,325, the two combined
giving total for public educational
purposes of $265,325.
Looking After Needy
Third in size is the provision for
the sanitarium and the hospitals
which rebounds to the credit of public
spirit on Maui 100000. In that pro-
vision there is not the great increase
that would appear on the surface for
formerly those institutions were pro
vided for in the general fund.-" but,
even so, there is handsome increase
in the monies available for the support
of those institutions.
Another item which shows Maui's
forward position in welfare work in
the Territory is a provision of S32,5Ot
for child welfare support. But in ad-
dition to that there is much other re-
lief work, including provisions for the
care of indigents 70 rand pensions for
which $4,000 is provided.
A summary of the budget follows:
