FARMER DRIVES OX TEAM

Oklahoma's Champion Potato Raiser Prefers Old-Fashioned Motive / Power. Muskogee, Okla. —Scientific farming with oxen is not taught in the agricultural colleges, neither is it mentioned in the tone of press bulletins and literature sent out by the United States Department of Agriculture. Yet just this combination of “highbrow" farming with oxen has produced some remarkable results on the farm of O. K. Marks, half way between Yahola and Haskell, Okla. Marks’ star success was sweet potatoes —a big, white yam that Is marvelous for size and weight. His biggest potato weighed over twenty pounds. From one hill the plow turned up over thirty-two pounds of potatoes, one of these weighing 14 1-4 pounds, ahother 7 and still another 5, the Jast being far bigger than the average “biggest” potato. Marks absolutely refused to state what an acre of such potatoes yielded because he says it is so enormous that nobody would believe it. But he has the big potatoes mentioned and brought them here to show his banker, who immediately agreed to lend Marks all the money he needed to exploit such crops and grow more "of them. “Anybody who can raise sweet potatoes like that can get all the credit he needs,” said the banker as he gazed in amazement at these that were nearer the size of watermelons than they were any sweet potatos the banker had ever before seen. Proof that scientific methods were used in the growing these potaoes lies in ’ the fact that but one rain fell on them from the time they were planted until they matured, and that was just a few days after they were planted. The proof of the ox team cultivation are the big oxen on the Marks farm. Four years ago a five-yoke ox team drawing a great logging wagon loaded with farm supplies . plodded slowly over the paved city streets. They excited almost as much attention as a circus parade. That farming outfit going out to transform raw forest land into a farm. Marks was then referred to as a “picturesque” farmer and lots of fun was made of his outfit. -He had gone over into Arkansas and purchased his team. To-day everyone will admit that Marks and his oxen are picturesque, but they refer to him now as a “scientific farmer.” Marks merely made a dent in his forest farm the first year. He cleared and plowed just a small “patch,” then death in his family and other circumstances caused him to abandon further efforts for two years and the farm was turned over to a tenant. But- that first year Marks accomplished something that was worth while. The “patch” that he did clear and plow he worked well. In fact, he plowed it four times with a breaking plow, going a little deeper eaqh time, and after each plowing, harrowing and harrowing until a neighbor tenant farmer in astonishment said: “That man is sho’ just wearing that land out harrowing it.” That plot of ground this year was right in the middle of the potato field. “You can tell to a foot just where that real cultivation was done four years ago," said Marks, “by the size of the potatoes this year. All of the big potatoes grew in that plot. “Here is what the farming sharps had been telling us all the time. Plow deep enough so that the soil would absorb and hold enough moisture for the crop whether it rained or not. Well that deep plowing and harrowing four years ago had made a regular sponge, out of that ground. That’s why this enormous crop without rain this year. And think about such results from work done four years ago." “Farming with oxen may be “picturesque to most people these days," said Marks, “but just get a few figures. A big bull can be bought for ?50. Anybody who has ever used them knows that a bull can kill a mule when it comes to heavy logging work in the woods. Furthermore, it costs less to keep them. A bull costs SSO and a mule costs S2OO. You don’t buy pedigreed and registered bulls for logging. It’s just a bull that you want and he has a frame and weight that means power."

SCHOOL CLOSED AS PUPIL DIES

This Year There Had Been Attendance of Only One In Once Large Ohio District. Canal Dover, Ohio —Decline of the “little red schoolhouse’’ Is evidenced in Dover Township, where the Keller school has been discontinued becaijse its last pupil died. This district was once one of the largest in the county, but the attendance declined until last year there was an attendance of eight pupils. The school board decided to continue the district, with Miss Gretchen Gintz as teacher. Finally only one pupil remained, a girl of 8 years. Several dayp ago she died, and the teacher is now serving as substitute in another township.

Died Before He Lived.

Philadelphia, Pa. —A close observer, visiting an old churchyard near here,has just discovered the mournful obituary of a man who apparently had the misfortune to die many years before he was born. The inscription on the gravestone read as follows: "In memory of John Favinger, who was 'born the 18th day of September, 1774, and departed this life September the 25th, A. D. ( 1721. Aged 47 years and 7 day."

RENO, THE MAGICIAN.

■ For thirty-three years Edward Reno Bas been a magician. He is constantly Inventing new things in magic and Illusions. Magic, like everything else, bas progressed with rapid strides during the past few years. Reno lias the usual light paraphernalia, but performs his tricks while in ordinary eteuing dress and so adroitly as to .escape detection in every ease. In this respect he is a wonder. He does things that seeiu absolutely impossible of execution without the aid t»f supernatural agency. One of his performances that never fail to amaze his audiences is known as the "dove trick." He burns a piece of common paper, and a dove rises phoenix-like from the ashes. He apparently tears the dove in two, only to find that he has two doves in Ms hands.

RENO, THE MAGICIAN.

He, throws a glass of water into the air, and it changes into a dove and flies away. Not the least enjoyable feature of Reno’s performance is the runnjng fire of comment with which be enlivens everything he does. These fragmentary ..remarks are full of fun and wit. with flash after flash of good tempered satire aimed at himself or his work. He Is a man of fine personality and. engaging stage presence, with a keen mentality and an artistic appreciation of the success he has .achieved in his profession. Ina performance two hours in length he is able to spring one surprise after another on his audience, keeping his t.tidlence in a state of breathless wonder and delight until they forget to note the flight of time. The fact that many of these tricks are inventions of his own adds interest to the entertainAt the high school auditorium Wednesday evening, Nov. 18th.*
