LIFE ON THE FARM
IN DICKINSON
COUNTY
By ORSA COUNTS

The writer was impressed by
an article printed in recent is
sue Of The Herald, which stated
the numbers of cattle, sheep and
dogs that are reported to h e
Treasurer's office for taxation.
There seems to be an interest
ing experience which follows,
that I believe will be of value to
lots Of farmers in Dickinson.
Suppose we begin at Dec. Il,
1945, when the Japs and Germans
had all petered out and, govern
ment war plants were cutting Off
their workers, thereby returning
to the farms thousands of farm

the first snow.

lllC AA1ob S1IOWs
All set now to take care of my
newborn lambs, which will be
coming to see me in January, but
the first snow brings something
else besides lambs to play around
my feet-"Those ever-thoughtful
fox hunters" to leave your gates
open and climb over your wire
fences, letting your sheep out in
to the woods.
The next thing that has to be
done is get out in the woods, with
the snow knee deep and get your
sheep back into the field.
You find five here, ten there,
and few somewhere else, and
wonder what has scattered your
sheep all over the mountain,
when all of a sudden you hear
sound of dogs barking down by
the creek, so you start running
for all your might, and when you
get to the dogs you find your
thorobred buck, that you gave
$4,000 for, lying in the water
with its throat cut by the dogs,
and 18th lifeblood floating down.
stream with the water.
You turn your back on your
prize sheep that you have work
ed so hard for, and with sorrow
in your heart, walk away.
Over in the next hollow, you
find three Or four prize ewes,
torn and mangled, some dead,
some dying and the most pitiful
of all, some looking at you and
begging in a sleeps peculiar way,
for you to do something to ease
their pain.
You promise the suffering ami
mails from the bottom of your
heart that you will avenge their
wrongs, so you go to the owner
of the dogs and tell him what you
have seen with your own eyes,
then he informs you that his dogs
will not run sheep and that he
also buys his dog tags, for $1.50
each, and he has a right to keep
dogs and hunt where he ppleases.
Again you are thinking of your
prize sheep that the dogs It h e
ones that you see at that moment
lying stretched out on the porch)
killed and crippled, and you won
der what to do next.
1 wonder what this man would
say, and how he would feel to-
ward me, if I should go before
our circuit court judge and pay
for permit to carry pistol and
then shoot down his horse, COW,
or sheep-killing dogs just because
I had paid for the permit.
Sheep raising in Dickinson
could be a million dollar business
if it were not for the worthless
dogs.
I think this one true experience
on a Dickinson County farm will
answer the question asked in the
previous issue of The Herald.
Why do you not see more sheep
on our farms?
How many farmers will join
me in a drive to GET RID OF
THESE SHEEP KILLERS?

Regarding the federal civil

Jim Crow COLLEGES
Attacked at Herald
Tribune Forum

New York--"It looks as though
may become an old woman be-
fore ! become a lawyer" declared
Mrs. Ada l.. Sipuel Fisher before
the 18th annual New York Herald
Tribune Forum being held this
week at the Hotel Waldorf As
toria. Mrs. Fisher, who has been
unsuccessful in her thirty four
month attempt to secure a legal
education in Oklahoma, is denied
admission to Oklahoma Univer-
sity's law school solely because
she is a Negro.
Stating that her decision to
study law was "tantamount to a
fight against segregation" Mrs.
Fisher reviewed her case, which
has been carried by attorneys o,
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
to the Distrit and Supreme Courts
OF Oklahoma and the United
States Supreme Court.
Mrs. Fisher told of her refusal
TO seek admission to the make

set up by the state after the U.

she be provided with educational
facilities equal to those at the

admission to the University in
August despite testimony by legal
experts calling the special school

Speaking at the same Forum,
Jack Summerfield, graduate
student at the University of Tex

ton and recalled the unsuccessful
attempts of Heman Mario
Sweat, Houston Negro, to enter
the University Of Texas law
school in 1916.
No one can deny that Unequal
tiles exist between the Univer-
sitys law school and the law
school for Negroes which holds
classes in a basement ........ ;" stat
ed Mr. Summerfield. He declared
that not even the "phenomenally
rich" state Of Texas could afford
to establish duplicate schools that
would meet the legal require

policy, and added that a segregat-
ed educational system is degrad-
ing and obstructs the progress
