BIG DIAMOND
 PROSPECT SOLD
George ". Rogers of Little Rock tc. quires 300 Acres of Pike County Soil For Chicago Capitalists--May Mean Another Company in the Field.

Little Rock, Dee. 1.-The organi- zation of the two companies ill Little Rock to exploit the Pike county dia. nlond fields has evidently excited the interest of outside capitalists and 8 party of Chicagoans have purchased 300 acres of land in that section, which will no doubt be prospected for sparklers.
 The transfer was made during the present week, the property being teeded in the name of George W. Rog- CTS of Little Rock
 Mr. Rogers stated today that it was true the property had been deeded in
 his name, but that he had no inten- tjon of embarking in the diamond min ing or any other kind of mining that he was simply acting for a third party ill this case, and the name of the third party he refused to divulge Inquiry among local diamond inter- ests fails to reveal the identity and purpose of the purchasers, but it is believed that third company will soon be organized to probe the dia- mond bearing dirt of Pike county in the hope of unearthing a few dia- monds.
 There is great activity in the dia mond field at this time and land in that vicinity is being transferred al most daily.
 The 300 acres sold this week con stitutes one of the heaviest transfers for some time, but there are pros Ipectors and prospective purchasers in the field almost every day, and it is predicted that all the land which may possibly bear diamonds will be gob bled up by capitalists within a short space of time.

Easy Money in Sheep.

There is no other class of stock
that will produce a greater dividend
for the amount invested, if properly
cared for. They require no special
care except through winter and
spring. We breed our ewes to bring
lambs in February and March. They
should be kept away from other stock
at this time until lambs are old enough
to avoid being run over and trampled
on. It's very necessary to have shell
ter during winter and especially dur
the the Landing period, when they
should be inclosed every night. Our
sheep barn is situated at the intersec-
ton of three fields and is divided into
three parts, which makes it much cas-
Ter to care for and save the young
lambs
Last fall I invested SITS in 81 ewes
and buck We have sold from this
flock 1928 and have the original dock
left, which are worth over 81 per
head more than they were year ago.
We saved As out of 46 lambs and
started them nicely on rye pasture
before they were turned on grass. On
date of delivery, July 5, they weighed
almost 100 pounds each and brought
$6.75 per 100 pouSs. This, with the
wool, makes it quite easy.-J. w

FARMER AND
PLANTER
CATTLE TICKS DISAPPEARING.


Experts are Slowly Driving Them out
of the South.
The work of Graduating the fever
tick In the infested area was not I'M
dertaken by the Federal Government
until July /, 1906, yet as result there
have been released from quarantine
certain areas in Virginia, North Caro-
lima, Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas and
California, amounting approximately
to 10000 square miles. twenty coun-
ties previously in quarantine have
been admitted to provisional quaran-
tine and good Roadway has been made
in still other areas. During the last
fiscal year the work has been pursued
in cooperation with State authorities
in the States above named, and in
Georgia Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri,
Louisiana and Oklahoma. 1t has in
cluded 1,934,4S8 inspections of cattle,
539,674 of which were re-inspected,
thus indicating the inspection of L.
394,S14 individual cattle, these com
posing 1856 separate herds. Various
approved methods for the eradication
of ticks have been used, including pas
ture rotation and dipping, spraying
and hand dressing with oil and oil
emulsion.
The number of cattn9 moved from
the area quarantined for Southern
fever to Northern markets during the
guarantee season of 1906 was 1,000'
629, shipped in 36,213 cars. These cat
tie were all for immediate slaughter
and were handled under the super
vision and regulations of the Depart
ment of Agriculture at Washington
There were also inspected in the pro
visional quarantine areas of Texas
and Oklahoma 1928 head Of cattle
which were permitted to be moved
North for purposes other than imme
date slaughter. Supervision was ex
ercised over 1892 clippings in crude
petroleum, and over the cleaning and
disinfeetion of S6,S95 cars.
There is much satisfaction express
ed over the work of the Federal au
thorities in Texas during the last veal
in dealing with the tick problem, ant
it is hoped that during the next veal
much more favorable results may be
obtained through the hearty co-opera
ton of all the ranchmen who are in
terested in this very important propo
sition. While there has been more o.
| less cooperation during the last year
better results could have been obtain
ed if all the cattlemen in the interest
| ed trrritory had fallen into line, ant
during the coming year every possible
effort will be made to get them int
line.
The Federal people, who are co
operating with the State officials in al
effort to solve the tick problem arr
hopeful that as the excellent result!
Of the work being done become clear
ly apparent, there will be genera
revival of interest among all cattle
men in the infested territory, which
will be sufficient to insure determine
ton to carry on the work until all thu
ticks are wiped out. There are M
ranchmen operating in the infestet
territory who are not fully conversan
with the evil effects of tick domino
ton. The losses that occur from thu
presence of the ticks every yea
would be far more than sufficient t
pay the total cost of eradication, blu
the work of educating the ranchmel
up to their duties in the premises ha
been a slow and laborious process

WILL MEET THE
CITY HALF WAY
M. 0. Bogoger Feels That he has
Been Misrepresented.

NJ. O. BOgOger stated to REPORTER
representative yesterday that he had
been somewhat misrepresented regard
ing the Vine street matter in a local
paper, and he asked that a true state
ment regarding his position be stated
in this paper.
Mr.. Bogoger states that he employed
Architect A. f. BilImyer and Archi-
tect Geo. Miller to figure out the cost
of moving his buildings back a suffic-
lent distance to allow the city twenty
feet the full length of his block.
Their figures differed somewhat, but
the lowest was something over $4,000.
When approached by the board of pub
lie works regarding the matter Mr..
BogOger showed them the figures, and
after dickering for sometime he offered
to take an even $4,000. They offered
him in return but $4,000. Mr.. Bogoger
feels that he has nothing to give away
in this matter, but he is perfectly
willing to meet the city half way.
