He Doesn't Think Arkansas n Desirable Home for
Soldiers.

To THE EDITOR: In your issue of May Ia
is letter from C. w. Harrington, advising
comrades to go to Northwest Arkansas and
take homesteads. Comrade Harrington may
be honest in what he says, but ne is surely
badly mistaken in the needs of comrades.
There is vast amount of land subject to
homestead entry in the northern Counties Of
Arkansas and the southern Counties of Missouri,
but all that is really desirable for homes was
taken up years ago.
A comrade who has just returned from the
country alluded to tells me number Of COM
rades have taken their ali and gone to Arkansas
on the strength of Comrade Harringtons let
ter, with the expectation Of finding good homes,
only to be disappointed.
There is undoubtedly vast wealth hidden in
those mountains, but the old soldier with but
little money, and whose health was shattered
in his country's service is not the man to de-
velop that wealth. Having spent between two
and three months in those mountains think
I know whereof l speak. Comrades, don't
take your families there until you have
thoroughly investigated the matter. As .
health resort the country spoken Of has no
superior, and if you have plenty Of Honey to
spare you could not do better than to spend
two or three of the hot months of the year at
some of the springs, drinking the pure water
and breathing the mountain air.-A CoMRADE

The National Convention showed their good
sense in electing Mrs. Alkaline p. Kent, OF

Kent is the wife of Comrade J. Horace Kent,
and she is held in high esteem by all who know
her. She is Department President of the N.
III. Woman's Relief Corps. and President Of
Corps 6, Portsmouth, of which she was one Of
the organizers. She is well able to fill the
place, being woman of extraordinary intelli-
gence, great executive ability and very easy
and pleasant in her manners and address, and
it may be set down as moral certainty that if
she will accept she will in the not very distant
future make a most acceptable National Presi-
dent of this excellent charitable auxiliary Of

With all the attention to business de-
tails, Which characterize the cattle bus
iness, it seems strange that cattlemen
should depend almost entirely on com.
mission men to conduct their sales.
OF course it is the simplest and easiest
way to dispose of cattle but we doubt if
1T is the most profitable. Tho commits
sion man sells at whatever. price he
chooses, delucts his commission and ex-
penses and gives the balance to tile cat
tleman. It is astonishing that the COM
mission men are as honest as the lack Of
serious complaint shows them to 4 be.
It would be q very simple thing to have
an understanding between the buyer
and the commission man and make tile
seller lose the t'cahoots.' "a remedy for
this is hard to find but 1t seems strange
that some move is not made toward lin
iting the absolute power Of the commits
sion men in making sales. We confess:
that these remarks arise from a we'll
founded ill-Will the editor has foL:conl-
mission men in another limo Of business.
Lately, however, we have seen two cat
tlemen who are seriously dissatisfied
with tho present way Of making sales.
It is anatter that sllonll be considered
by stock organizations.
