OUTLOOK GOOD FOR
 BERRIES AND PEACHES

Van Buren, March 27.-Nev- CT III the history of the fruit growing industry in Crawford county has there been as encour- aging prospects for full crop of all kinds of fruits as our growers are now facing. The shipment of strawberries in small quan- titles has begun, showing the season to be just three weeks earlier than ever known before, and by April 10th they will be shipping them from here in solid trainloads.
 No danger of frost k felt here at this time, and the sole fear of growers k that they will not be able to get piekers enough to care for the crop.
 Promising as the berry and other small fruit crops are, the Elberta peach crop will be the big crop this year. A half mil lion trees will bear their first crop this year, aud as the oldest trees even are vigorous and heavily fruited, with favorable conditions for maturing and mar keting, the crop of peaches alone is estimated at roo cars from Crawford county alone.

It was also decided that in the event of any of those who are barred from receiving tickets be given one through mistake, and 1t should be awarded a premium on tile day of distribution, that said ticket will not be honored.
 The Merchants Advertising Association was organized for the purpose of attracting trade from the territory outside of Springdale, the supposition be- ing that home people would have sufficient local pride to do their trading at home without the ex- tra indueement.

WHAT IT WILL COST
 TO BUILD GOOD ROADS.

The Fayetteville Democrat has figured out the cost Of building roads in Washington County un- der the Arnold road law, as fol- lows
 It is believed by those who have studied the matter that under the new Arnold road law that 800 miles of macadam road can be built and paid out. inter- est and all, at q total cost of 5000, ,000. 00 in Washington eoun- ty, Arkansas. Three hundred miles of such road would cross every township in the county twice on the average, and would on the average put every inhab- itant within three miles of macadam road. What 1t would cost. 5000, GOO paid in thirty an- nual installmentS is go, ,o0o per year. There are 536. .5S0 acres of land in Washington county, Ark ansas. For example, as consid- erable of this land k waste that We throw away getting 10 benefits worth mentioning 12s,- 5s6 acres of land leaving 100000 acres to bear the burden of s20,- GOO per year for these roads. This i9 tie stupendous sum ot tive cents per acre per year. And this calculation does not consider tile portion ot this cost which the railroads having q valuation of ss53, 740 would bear.

John W. Brown of Mystic, Assails the
 Direct Primary Bill.
 John w. Brown of Mystic, accompan- jed by band of New Haven social democrats, spoke to c small crowd of man and boys on the Green last night in an attack on the "direct primary bill now in the hands of the judiciary committee of the state legislature, The minority paries will figh the bill be- cause, as Mr. Brown said, it would force these parties to an expense of $l3,000 for the nomination of a complete state ticket. The bill provides that a payment be made to the district in which the election is held for every candidate nominated but that in case the candidate receives ten per cent of the total vote cast the payment shall be remltted. The minority parties have never been able to poll over five per cent of the vote and hence can hope for no remittance. The prohibitionists, the populists the social democrats are ali out to defeat the bill.
 John Brown of Mystic, is travelling over the state and speaking in all the towns against the bill Rev. Irvine so- cialist leader of New Haven, is expect ed to take part in the attack on the bill later on. He was in New York last night.
