State Penitentiary Board.

The Board of Commissioners of the State Penitentiary were in session the first of the week. A resolution offered by Acting Governor Pindall, providing that the Arkansas Brick and Manu- featuring Company shall be furnished enough convicts to make up the aver age of 300, according to contract, was defeated, as was also a resolution by Attorney General Kirby, authorizing the superintendent to withdraw from the brickyard all conyicts in excess of 300, the number now there being 354. Both resolutions were defeated by a tie vote. Pindall and Tucker voted for the first resolution and Moore and Kirby voted against it. On the second resolution Moore and Kirby voted in the affirmative and Pindall and Tucker in the negative. The report of Superintendent Pitcock showed that there were TAO convicts at the various camps and institutions, as follows: State farm, 193; brickyard, 1S9; rock crusher, 102; Ell Dorado, 63; Fordyce, 67; Casey, 53; within walls, 73. In the report of Dr. $. w. Col quit, assistant physician in charge o1 the hospital at the state convict farm in Lincoln county, it is shown that the following cases were treated during the month of July, the greater number being malarial fever:7 Anisaconia
 asthma, biliousness, congestion of bowels, delibity, fracture of skull
 hepatic acites, hemorrhoids, neuralgia pleurisy, pneumonia, tuberculosis scrofulosis, one each; malarial fever, 36; rheumatism, T.; slight wounds, 2. The secretary of the board was in. structed to give such notice as nee essary to parole cases on trial in ac- cordance with directions and inStruc- tions from the attorney general. There are three cases of this kind pending before the board, those of Reedy Vance of Pulaski county, serving a term of 21 years for murder in the second degree; Tank Brown, a negro convicted in Chicot county on the charge of larceny, and Jesse Montague of Monroe county, serving two years sentence for manslaughter. The parole of the latter is recommend ed by State Senator John P. Lee of Monroe county, author of the parol act. On motion of Commissioner Tucker, the attorney general was re- quested to give an opinion as to the character of boys and girls that should be sent to the reform school and the secretary instructed to mail a copy of the opinion to each circuit and county judge in the state of Ar kansas. The Superintendent of the reform school was instructed to as- certain the cost of the services of a physician for the institution.

It is positive fact that more than one-half of the sickness on the farm comes from the bad water used. There is no other source of pollution that is half so active as the well, spring or open tank that you com monly find on the farm. See to it that your we'll is clean and that all around 1t is kept clean. A dirty hole in the ground near we'll will soon find a downward seep, and down into the nell it goes with all the filth of that hole. A cistern may become pollut- ed, and frequently does, from the mas tiness that is swept off the roof and allowed to stagnate, grow and fester in the, still water. The open tank is not fit for water either for the stock or for man, but the beasts, being in a natural sort of condition can, and will throw off the i'll effects that are ab- sorbed and make sick the more arti- ficial human being. Ie you want to enjoy life, beat the doctor and keep the undertaken at arms length, insist above all on having good water. You cook your food, and kill the most of the little disease breeders in it, but you swallow them, heads and all," like Esau did the snakes, when they are in the water. Look well after your water.

Now, look here you able-bodied, good-looking farmer, you fellow who has been in the habit of going to town and getting ori-eyed with cheap whis- ky, let us tell you something you have heard, but not needed before: That man who is getting your money and your manhood, and the money you owe to your wife and children, isn't giving a continental cent for you only so long as. your money holds out not your money either, but the money of your family. Haven't. you seen him kick out the good-for-nothings as soon as they ran out of money? Of course you have, and you are not a whit better than any other old down 'and-out," except that you haven't spent all your family's money. There isn't farmer on earth today but who is respectable enough to know that his family deserves at his hands a man who will keep good company. It is a streak of yellow that he ought to work out that takes a. man where he don't want his wife and children to so. Now, ain't that the gospel truth?

The Farmers Union is now too big to allow it's members to go around whining. Boys, get out in the sun shine where you can cast shadow, and get used to 'seeing things" The Union is in the fix of the boy after the woodchuck, they have to get him. The Union has gone on and on until there is no time for stopping to listen to the winners. Cotton is going to bring 15 cents this season, and every thing else that the farmer handles is, on the same basis. Things are high that he has to buy, but not nearly so high in comparison with the prices of ten years ago as cotton, wheat, corn and meat. The silly farmer who has Atn- Ahllu- -tha-- -thines--that ought tn be. raised on the farm is in the middle of bad fix, but the diversifer-ah, he is on the top of the heap now.

: This is the day of organizing all sorts of business to the end that ad- vantage may be taken of everything pertaining to the success of that buss mess. Less than this will not do for the largest success of the farmer. A railway run on the haphazard style of the average farm could not remain in business six mouths. The mer- chant would have to close his store in a few days if he took no more ad- vantage of opportunities and circum- stances than does the farmer of the average sort. It is to educate our people up to this point, to bring them to a realization of their own power when united, that the Union is now in existence. This is the groundwork of the Union.
