CHALK CLIFFS.
Machinery There, and More Ordered
For Manufacturing Purposes.

Mr. John Kelley, secretary of the
White Chalk Cliff Company called
up to see ustoday and left a no
tice for stockholders meeting for
the 3rd of February, to meet in
this city.
We CLEAN the following facts from
Secretary Kelley:
The White Cliffs Portland Cement
aud Chalk Co. is composed of Dr.
Fahrney of Chicago, and w. K, and
John Kelley, of New Orleans, as
principal stockholders. Mr.. j, X
Kelly is president, and John Kelly
secretary, and Dr. Fahrney vice.
president.
The company own three thous-
any acres and will proceed to lay
off a town which they will name
Farhney, and will erect machinery
for the manufacture of Portland
cement and other articles made
from chalk, etc. Mr.. Kelly says they
viii have machinery enough to
make from 400 to 600 barrels per
day.
These cliffs rise above the ground
about 300 feet, and there is no tell
ing how deep under ground the
chalk lies, and what is in sight will
take years to consume.
These cliffs are situated six miles
from Wilton, and spur from the
Texarkana & Ft. Smith railroad
will be built out to the new town
and works.
Mr.. Kelley says DR., Farhney will
head an excursion of capitalists in
February and visit this locality, and
especially the cliffs, on which day a
town lot sale will be made. He has
every hope that Fahrney will be a
town that will draw many good peo-
pie there as citizens.

ARKANSAS ADVANTAGES,

We reprinted yesterday from the
Black Rock (Ark.) Blade a brief
but very very striking and compre-
hensive statement as to the fertlli-
ty and varied productlveness of Ar
kansas. The statement, which is
well worth reprinting a asecond time
is as follows;
statistics show that there has
not been failure of crops in Ar
kansas since the war. What bet
ter record could be asked for? The
soil, climate and natural resources
conspire to make the people pros
porous, happy and contented. Ma
ture seems to be so desirous Of do
ing her part well and faithfully
that she will meet man more than
half way in his strife for the goal.
The man who wants to work can do
more here than anywhere under
the blue canopy Of heaven. The
slothful and sluggard flourish as
well in one country as in another,
but there is lots of pie here Tor the
man of push, and he is fast finding
it out,
"a few of the divers things a mar
can raise in Arkansas
Zone to one and half bales OF
cotton per acre.
"Fifty bushels Of corn per acre
"Three crops in one year of the
same land,
"The finest apples, peaches
pears, and Strawberries in America,
1.-TWO hundred gallons Of sor-
ghum per acre.
"Four tons of clover hay per acre
give tons Of German millet per
acre.
"Four hundred quarts OF straw
berries per acre.
"Three bushels Of peaches pei
tree after the third year
"Hogs and cattle one hundred
per cent cheaper than in the
North.
"The copious showers of Arkan
sas are preclpitated at the right
instead of the wrong time. Hence
there is absolutely nothing pro
vided energy and frugality are
practiced--to prevent the judiciou'
investor from riding on the tor
rail Of prosperity
1t would be very hard to beat this
showing anywhere, and the Blade
has not overstated the case a par
ticle. Arkansas is a great State
and it has a great future. r Mem
