Come to Arkansas to Study
Fungi.
We've DOT EN- lin Infinite Variety.

"North Arkansas is not only a
good place to study apples ana
peaches said Miss Lizzie Rubart,
horticultural expert late of the Mis-
souri, University, to the TIMES man
the other day, "but from the Tact
that up to very recently the fruit
raisers of the section have made no
effort to destroy either the tuhel or
the insect enemies of the trees or
their fruit, it offers a splendid held
for the study of these things also
They are more numerous and more
active here, than anywhere | know
of. "
Miss Rubart came here several
months ago expecting to remain but
short time. She combines the abll-
ity of the artist with the technical
knowledge of horticulture, botany,
and kindred subjects, which makes
her models sought after by UNIVERSE
ties and scientists throughout the
country. Our people have had an
opportunity to see some splendid
specimens of her work IN the WIN.
dow at Allison's millinery store,
where it is not uncommon to lind
strangers looking with great inter
est at the models, surprising them to
be samples of the fruits oil the
country.
Made of a clay composition,
these models are not only intended
to give in detail the peeuliarities oil
the different varieties of fruit. but IN
many instances they give infinitely
the fungus growths which live upon
and injure the apple or peach, and 1t
is in the study of all these diseases
of the fruit that Miss Rubart has
prolonged her stay with us.
She thinks this will be a great
fruit country, but not until our fruit
rasers have learned to successfully
combat the forces which operate Tor
the deterioration of the product.
There is food Tor thought III all
this for our farmers, every one OF
whom should be also a fruit raiser
To get the results justified By our
climate and soil, there must be an
intelligent study of the subject, aud
they are the men to dc It. Every
year they neglect the matter the are
losing big, round dollars BY the
handful, and there is no exeus. tos
delay.
Next Thursday morning there will
be free lectures in Harrison on these
subjects by Messrs Vineenheller and
Jacobs, OF the Arkansas Experiment
Station, and we hope to see them
speak to large audience OF people
who are practically interested.

They Couldn't Be Kept at Home Nights.

Deputy Sheriff Lewis Dowell re-
turned from Little Rock Wednes-
day, having attended to the NEAR
ceration in the penitentiary of the
two boys, Hugh Mcdaniel and
Boone Hames, who will suffer four
years punishment for burglarizing
several of the stores of the town.
The disaster thus brought into the
lives of these young fellows should
impress parents both in and out of
town of the danger to the boy who
runs the streets at nights. If you
don't look after your boys as YOU
should now the Sheriff and the PEN
itentiary Overseer will look after
them later,

While feeding the thresher at the
Pullen farm Tuesday R. A. Price,
whose home is at Alpena, had the
two last fingers of his right hand
torn off, One of the bundles had
been bound with wire which caught
the fingers in hook, making it nee
essary for him to pull the fingers off
or have his whole hand and arm
drawn into the machine.
1t is not likely that he will suffer
more than the loss of the fingers as
it is, and he is to be congratulated
on the presence of mind and nerve
which led him to mann himself as the
best way out of a serious dilemma
which called for instant decision and
action.

NEW BRITAIN GOES
Bank Wrecking Polo Team 8 Farewell Game at Home
 To- morrow Night.
NEW RINK NOT YET READY
As Result New Bedford Team Will Have to Play on Road--1rans-
 fer ncplorcd Here.

The New Britain polo team will make its farewell appearance in that town tomorrow night when 1t meets the New Haven quintet fin the final home game of the season Tho official transfer of the team according to the papers now in possession of Manager Hanna will be made on Thursday. the 24th, but as the Now Bedford rink Is not yet ready, the team will have to play all of its scheduled home match cs on the road
 The transfer of the Bank Wreclting team al this stage of the game when it is putting mp one of the fastest games fin the league is almost a pity, Admitting that the team will be the same, and all that goes with the ad- mission, the fact nevertheless is to he deplored that the only team In the central part of tho Connecticut state Is to he transferred to a Massachusetts town. especially when It's position Is at tho head of tho league
 A peculiar feature of the change however is that although changing its home town a distance of hundred miles or more there will bc no change in the letters of tho sweaters of the players the "N B." standing for New Bedford as well as for New Britain
 This change Is but ono of series with which the league managers have been dealing since the season started. Tho league started with ten clubs in tho circuit, the public of Salem and Hartford however failed to support their teams and as a result the two forfcitcd" their franchises. This was a hard blow to the Connecticut inter- ests as the Capitol City team was right in the heart of tho central section of tho state. Manager Hanna after selI- ing his New Britain franchise bought up the Bridgeport team and his actions with regard to the carrying on of the game in that city is anXiously awaited by followers of the sport In this city.
 lAt the last meeting of the league magnates representatives from Lowell, Lawrence and Lynn were present and made requests for franchises, Behind these applications there evidently is some meaning one that if the public in the two Connecticut towns namely this city and Bridgeport fail to support their teams as they ought to thereby giving the managers paying basis on which 10 work at least the managers will have the option Of transferring tbeir team to some other city

DoWD TO NEW BEDFORD.
Manager of Hartford Club Last Year to Pilot New England League Team.

New Bedford, Mass, Dec. 1s.iThom- as I. Dowd, the well-known baseball manager and player, who piloted tho Hartford club of the Connecticut league last season, has accepted forms with the owners of the New Bedford club of the New England league and will manage the team In 1909, Dowd had offers from the owners of the Wil- mlngton club in the TrlState league and the Binghampton and Albany clubs of the New York State league but turned them down.
 Dowd made a proposition to the New Bedford management and his terms were accepted at once. He is expected to make good leader here, but will have to handle a tailend club Dowd made a fine showing in Hartford how ever, with comparatively poor material and landed the club in second place after a. hard seasons campaign. Tho new manager will sign players during the winter and report here about tho first of next April
