Col. W. A. Bright, representing the Arkansas Construction Compa- ny of Little Rock, was III our city last week to look over the proposed railroad from Fayetteville to Still- we'll, via Prairie Grove, d distance of 35 miles. !. J. Bagget, Drs. G. Mccormack and $. E. Rogers accompanied Mr. Bright over the route from this place to Boonsboro. He thinks the road could be con structed very cheap oyel the entire line with the exception of the Cane Iill mountains, of that he could not make an intelligent estimate without survey. Col. Bright was very iayorably impressed with our country, and thinks the pro posed road would be a paying in- vestment. Now is the tune to talk railroad. If we fail now to get a road we may never get one, hence it behooyes everyone to be up and doing. Let everyone who can talk at all, talk railroad, ard everyone who can raise a dollar be ready when the solicitor calls on you to contribute to this laudable enter prise - Prairie Grove Globe.

Although th, shipments were not so heavy as was anticipated, the seasor has been profitable. neverthe less. and has turned out mucl better than was expected at the beginning of the shipping sea son The returns for 33 cars shipped by the Union have been received. and the pros poets are that Springdale ship pers will get more for their berries than any other associa tion along the llne, as they have always done in the past The result of the season just closed has already shown tc 10 the growers that to make a success of the business they must have less acreage and grow better berries. To illus. trate, the last three cars ship. ped by the Union will net them more money than any of the others from the fact that the berries were all fancy, most oi them being Of the Candy va riety.
 Only three cars have been since our last report, This makes a total of 39 cars by the Union, and one by Sam Crawford brings the car lot shipments up to forty. The express ship ments since last report were 522 crates. Express ship ments previously announced 6,223 crates, making q total of 6,745 crates. Placing eco crates To the car We have over eleven ear loads shipped by express, bringing the total shipments up 10 over 51 cars. It costs about $500 to pick and load a car of berries and the reader can figure the amount of money scattered in this com. munity.
 Our people are not dlsheart- ened at the outlook, but will come next season with better berries than ever.
