Farmers are feeding potatoes to
cows and hogs. there being more profit
in this plan than to haul them to mar
ket at the prevailing price of about so
cents per 100 pounds or 80 cents a
bushel. One man reports his cows gave

feeding spuds and will probably empty
his bins before the excitement is over.
OF course potatoes should be fed in
moderation but no doubt there is
splendid food value in them for hogs
and cattle.

THE BRooMcoRN CONVENTION

Broomcorn growers and dealers in hroomeorn are holding a
convention in Chickasha this week Tor the purpose Of promoting
their mutual interests. The basic idea in the minds of those who
were instrumental in bringing about this gathering, as We under
stand Il. is that there are many interests which growers. buyers
and users Of broomcom have in common and that these interests
can be subscrvcd by cooperation. Unqucstionably this idea IS
economically sound and all connected with the industry stand to
gain by applying It.
In this immediate section OF Oklahoma but little attention
has been paid TO the growing OF broomcorn. That a small crop
of il could p~ro6tably be produced on practically every farm. IS the
opinion OF many who have made n careful study OF the matter
Dyorsihcation il is generally agreed. is essential 20 profitable To
agriculture. and il is especially desirable in this country where the
soil and climatic conditions are SO we'll adapted to growing a great
variety OF crops. 1t is not advisable for any farmer To 50 hog
Wild on broomeorn or any other crop but it Is certain that broom
corn may we'll form a more important part IN the program OF
profitable farming in this section OF The country. A few acres OF
this crop. properly cultivated and cared for after IT is grown.
means more cash for the tincrs OF the soil.
The caring for croomcorn after IT is produced and methods OF
marketing it present many problems which call for discussion and
careful study. Intthe convention OF men interested in this great
industry much information bearing on these problems will be
brought out and the logical result OF the gathering should be
better broomcorn and more profit for those who grow 1t. The
people of Grady county have much to gain from the meeting and
should be grateful to those who made it possible. Chickasha is
glad to have the honor OF entertaining visitors who have come to
the convention and is earnestly DESTROYS that it will accomplish
the great good which should result from such a gathering.

THE PATIENT is BETTER

Uncle Sam has been a pretty sick man.
For six years the money making fever worked upon him with
ever increasing intensity.
Last year he reached the crisis and for months his financial
life was despared of and some doleful. prophets Of evil predicted
his political demise.
Today, the fever has left him; he is able to sit up and take
nourishment and he knows what has been wrong with him, says
a contemporary.
War is a terrible thing; but war isn't half as dangerous as the
prohteerng fever which accompanies and follows it. Uncle Sam
had the get rich-quck- pass he-cos to-the- other fellow fever to
about the Nth degree and didn't seem to think much of the econ
Aomic doctors who kept telling him he was dangerously i'll.
The reason Uncle Sam can safely be pronounced out OF dan
Seer is because the patient is displaying a normal appetite and a
norma. interest in normal things.
OF course, Uncle Sam has a pimple or two left, and once in a
swlile his digestive tract will rebel, but, as a whole, he is doing
k6ne. thank you. A number of industries are holding out for high
level Of prices and some labor leaders are working on the old re-
sstricted output and high r-cost-theory but Uncle Sam is getting
in first class condition and will be able to throw off these and
other minor ailments, as a husky giant of a man who has the
fountain of youth in his veins should do.
About the hardest labor we know of it being done now by the
men who are trying to pick political plums-Topeka Capital.

PARTY BOSSES MUST BEAR BLAME

OF all the monumental bones" pulled by mortal man since
the arrival of Adam on the planet. IT will have to be conceded
that the leaders in the lower branch OF the OklahQma. Legislature
put over the prize-winncr when they precptatcIy Brought The
session to a close Saturday night. Not only did they prevent the
passage Of the appropriation bills necessary TO keep the state in
stitutions and departments of government going but. they also.
killed many Important measures which the house itself had pass
ed and which needed only the signature of the presiding officer
to make them laws. So bent were they on adjournng before the
conference committees could reach an agreement on the appro-
priations that they FASTENED to pull up stakes and hike out even
before the speaker of the house had time to sign these bills Of
their own making, in open session as required by law, and hence
work to which they had given much time was left unfinished.
II the house members had been willing to work a little long
er for g a day, it is highly probable that the necessary bills could
have all been passed but since it is scarcely conceivable that they
V ..eu to see the state institutions and departments shut down,
we must conclude that they were determined to force the calling
Of an extra session. Whatever object they may have had in mind
in taking this course, it is difficult, il not impossible, to see how
the welfare of the state or the interests of those who loot the
bills for government could have entered into their calculations.
An extra session at IS a day for the members, together with
mileage and all the other expenses OF a session which there is ev-
cry reason to believe would be prolonged for weeks, is a very
costly proceeding. The proposal to initiate the necessary appro-
priation measures and put them directly before the people for
outside of the realm Of the possible. However strong the reasons
which naturally make the governor rebel against the idea Of call
ing an extra session, this plan appears to lis to present the only
feasible method Of pulling the state out OF the middle into which
the stupidity and short-sightedness Of Republican politicians have
put it. Purblnd politicians must not be permitted to block the
progress Of the state and the responsibility for putting the states
affairs in such a pickle that the people must bear the huge ex-
pense Of an extra session must be placed where it belongs. The
G.. O. p. bosses, bent on playing politics, have spilled their own
beans. 1t was a bad piece of business for them as well as for the
state and they must take the consequences OF it.
