FARMERS WANT
 FREE DELIVERY

B. F. Hooker with other prominent planters and residents of the country adjacent to Pine Bluff have asked Congressman Joe T. Robinson to as- sist them in the formation of a new rural free delivery route, which is to be known as Rural Free Delivery Route No. 3. The length of the pro- posed route is about 27 miles. It runs from Pine Bluff to the Wh1ttenton store via the Taylor place and Ladd s postothce. From this point 1t goes back to Ladd's and thence to the Reed, Currie and Hankins places, re- turning to this city by the Monticello road To bring about this new route several repairs must be made in the road, and this will be done as soon as the free delivery is assured.

TEACHERS BEING
 EXAMINED TODAY
Certificates Issued to Teachers by County Examiner Lytle Will Be Recognized in Any County in
 Arkansas.

County Examiner G. w. Lytle to- day began the examinations for teach CTS licenses, the co]ored examina- tions being held at the Merrill High School and the white examinations at the Pine Bluff High School, which the School Board has been kind enough to lend for this purpose.
 A teachers institute was held last week both for the white and colored teachers, and teachers were present from several other towns in the state to take part in the institute. Quite large number will take both exami- nations, but the more marked in- crease is among the colored teachers, for an exceedingly large number of them will take the examinations.
 By recent act of the State Legis' lature the certificates which MT. Lytle issues must be recognized by any county officer in any county of Arkan. sas. Heretofore it has been purely optional whether the certificates were recognized Or not.
 These examinations will last two days, today and tomorrow, and it is that quite a large number of first grade certificates will be ls- sued

LIFE INSURANCE IN 1906.

The Insurance Press, a worthy puh- lication devoted to the interests its name suggests, gives some interesting data According to it, the life insur- ance organizations distributed in the United States and Canada during 1906 the sum of $327576, ,199. In addition there was paid to foreign policyhold- CTS annuities for dividends and for surrender values $120,00,O00. This exhibit is noteworthy considering the disturbanc ein life insurance last year The amount distributed during 1906 was more than $20,0o0,0o in excess of that distributed i'll 1905.
 During last year 31 regular com panies reported more than 343.009 lapsed policies for more than $523,- 100000 ordinary insurance. There were also surrendered 96,7T policies for $207,S73, ,099 of ordinary insurance, as compared with 79,945 policies for $112,779,19S surrendered in 1905. The comment is made that the lapsed poli- cies were needlessly sacrificed, as nothing occurred to warrant the exhi- bition of lack of confidence ill the abil- ity of the companies to meet thei, contracts. It is declared that a mum. ber of fraudulent organizations took advantage of the ignorance and feal of policyholders to offer impossible benefits.

According to f. H. S. in Farm Jour
nal (Philadelphia), we should be mo.f
inclined to 'try nature" He ais,
throws out the following pertinent su
gestions:
We should feed fowls so as to prt
serve them In the best state of health
AS fowls become domestlcated the.
are brought within our control an
consequently are largely deprived
their natural rights.
AS they depend upon us to care TO-
them, it is a self imposed duty to care
for them in the best manner possible.
Fowls in a natural state subsist upol
food of meager character, and yet they
are in perfect state Of health. Fooc
of such nature is what they require.
In winter we cannot of course get
green grass for our poultry, but We
can do as we do with our cows wheT
grass is out of season-feed them hay.
Late cut rowen is just as good as any
green food we can get in winter, and
supply should be kept on hand for THU
purpose. Cut it fine and steam BY
pouring hot water over it. Let i
stand for few hours, after which NH

cIucl.s and Cackles.

The pullets, if they have been prop
erly bred and fed, should now be doing
steady laying.
You never saw scrawny hen lay
ing. 1t is the we'll fed hen, the one
that looks neat and trim.
Rusty iron placed in the drinking
water at this season serves an excel
lent purpose as a tonic.
It is mistake to think that common
or mixed chickens are more profitable
than pure bred varieties.
Good birds cost high. Bear this In
mind when purchasing new stock
Good ones are the cheapest in the end.
1t is important that the interior OF
the houses, including the floors, be
dry and that plenty of fresh air can
get into the pens without drafts.
1t is equally important that the drop
pings be gathered each morning, SC
that a good sanitary condition can bs
maintained.

GUINEA HENS.

They Would BE Popular IL IA
value Were Better Understood.
In many localities the guinea hen !
considered as kind of a novelty
nuisance about the place. 1t does no
seem to be thoroughly well understoot
that the eggs of the guinea hen arr
highly valued by bakers for cake max
Ing and that the young guinea fow
will bring the highest price of am
broiler upon the market, says th'
Feather. Ii more attention We're giyei
TO the selection of the breeding stock
preventing too close inbreeding an
providing separate house away from
the chickens for the guinea fowls, then
cultivation might become more genera
and profitable. Guinea hens may bt
taught to live almost the same as
chicken hens. The trouble experienced
from keeping guinea fowls in building'
or poultry houses Is the overp0werins
influence Of mites and lice upon them
They are much more easily destroyed
by lice and mites than the chickens
The young Of the guinea hen scarcely
exist at all when once attacked by lice
or mites, which quickly destroy them,
Guinea hens live out in the open
build their nests or select their nests
under an old stump, a stone or in some
out of the way place. When once they
locate their nest and lay a few eggs
therein they continually remain about
the locality, and 1t is not difficult FOL
this reason to locate their nests anf
take from them part of the eggs. These
eggs may be placed under chicken hens
or the guinea hens themselves. Wher
either of these are permitted to hatch
the young guineas it is well to contint
the mother and young as soon as the
Young are hatched and keep them near
at hand, where they can be looked after
and properly fed and cared for short
time until the young guineas become OF
n size that enables them to follow the
mother about.
