THE CODE OF HAMMURABI
Local College Man Assists in the Translation of Ancient Work.

A few days since Dr. J. E. Godbey handed us for examination a copy of the Code of Hammurabi, Babylon ian king who ruled about 700 years before the time of Moses. The tablet on which the code was written was discovered in the Acropolis at Susa in 1900, and it is written in the cuen- form characters.
 It is a matter of local interest that Dr. Harper, president of the Depart ment of Semitics of the Chicago uni versity, by whom the book was edi- ted, acknowledges valuable aid rem dered by Prof. R. B. McSwain of Hendrix College in the preparation of this work
 The book itself is one deeply inter- esting to students. Many of the laws of the Babylonian king are identical with the laws given by Moses cen turies after. This fact suggests many questions especially interesting to Bible students.

BETTER PRICE FOR
 STATE CONNECTS

Little Rock, Sept. 18.-At a called meeting of the penitentiary board yesterday resolution was adopted directing the superintendent of the penitentiary to take all negro con- victs to the state farm except those needed by the state capitol commits sion, and that all white convicts not needed by the commission be placed at work for w. l.. Reaves, who is to pay for the labor of such convicts I$1.25 per day for each convict for the next 60 days, and thereafter un- til his present contract expires $1.10 per day per convict.
 The order means that the superin- tendent of the penitentiary shall transfer to the state farm all negro convicts, except those needed on the state capitol work, which are only 25, to be employed in picking cotton on the state farm. To carry out the or der of the board, the superintendent must take from Reaves about 200 convicts now employed by him at $l per day and about 250 in the employ of MT. Raleigh and about 60 at Rus sellville. Mir. Reaves is to receive the surplus number of white convicts, which would give him about 100 men for 60 days, for which he agrees to pay the state $1.25 per day each for their services.

CONSTITUTION
 WAS RATIFIED.

Little Rock, Sept. lS.-By a vote of more than four to one, the local union of Arkansas ratified the new constitution of the state Farmers Union, which was submitted to them by referendum vote on September 4. The executive committee yester- day formally canvassed the vote and declared the constitution formally adopted. Besides some important changes in the law of the union it provides for the doubling of member ship fees from 5 to 10 cents per month, and an increase in the salary of the secretary treasurer and the president.
 The committee held an hours con- ference with Governor Donaghey over the appointment of trustees for the new agricultural colleges, and submitted to him a list of recommen- dations for the places. The governor took them under consideration and stated he would announce the appoin- tees on October 1.
 It was not only decided that L. M. Burge, member of the committee who was appointed state tax conmis- sioner by Governor Donaghey, might retain both positions, but a resolu- tion endorsing the appointment was adopted by the committee.
 The work of preparing program for Farmers Union day at the state fair was left in the hands of J. E.
 Rogers of Magnolia, who is now en- gagged in the county demonstration work in Faulkner county.

DRAIN LAKE AND
 FIND MANY FISH

Although it is not the lenten sea- son, the laborers employed in the Tu- pelo ditching project are subsisting chiefly on diet of fish at present, as all they have to do is to raise a net stretched across the mouth of Turner lake and help themselves. This lake, which is in reality a sluggish bayou about one mile in length and an av- craze of about 50 yards in width, was tapped by the big ditch last Thurs day, while Governor Donaghey was present, and the water began to flow out with a rush. The stream is of such length, however, that the water lis lowered very slowly, and will not reach the level of the ditch for sev- eral days. Up to this morning it had fallen only about eight inches, or about one-half the amount which the depth of the lake will be reduced.
 The ditch for the four miles below the lake is now practically complete. About the only remaining portion of the ditch, which is being supervised by Governor Donaghey, is distance of about $50 yards between the up- lper end of Turner lake and the lower end of Tupelo lake. This work will be completed within week or two.
 Work on the upper end of the dis trict, which is being supervised by H. B. Ingram, is also being rapidly pushed to completion.

NEW 0RPHANACE
 NEARS COMPLETION

Little Rock, Sept. 1S.-Three weeks more and the $150,O00 St. Joseph Or phanage, which overlooks Little Rock from the summit of the mountain range five miles west of the city, will be open to the public and for the re ception of orphan children without respect to size or creed This school represents the work of several years and is not only one of the finest build ings of the state, but also one of the best equipped. It has every conven- fence a building could have in city, and the location is an ideal one.
 Bishop John B. Morris has looked after it's construction personally, as he is deeply interested in the work among the orphans. There are 19 children in the old orphanage, which is located near the site of the new building. The grounds are now be- ing cleared off and the furnishing will begin next week. Bishop Morris stated yesterday that he was not giv- ing attention at the present time to the looks of the grounds, bending all of his efforts toward the completion of the building itself, so the orphans could get in it as soon as possible.
 The building is of buff brick with white stone trimmings, and four stories in height. It towers over the city and can be seen from miles up and down the Arkansas river valley.

If 1t is left in the system gases arise
from 1t, and it is absorbed into the

The muscles surrounding the diges.
tive canals of a little pig are not
strong. It is not natural they should
be. Therefore the little pig is not
fitted to cope with large amounts of
crude fiber. 1t needs bulky but fine
feeds. Coarse cellulose, such as is
found in oats, barley and things Of
that sort, it is almost impossible for
a small pig with it's rather feeble mus
cular activity to handle. The mucous
Innings of the intestines and stomach
are tender and delicate. They become
irritated very easily by coarse, harsh
substances. Giving them rough, graf.
ing feeds would produce about the
same sensation in their intestines that
getting a cinder into the eye does upon
the membrane of the eselid.
The cells of the digestivs tract
through which the nutrients pass out
into the system are small. The alb
sorption powers of the pig are there
fore weak. He cannot handle az
many nutrients nor as easily as can
the large celled mature ehimal. To
give him more than he can absorb,
is not alone a waste of feed, but also
a waste of his energy. The nutrients
that he digests and does not absorb
simply pass out with the feces. They
do him no good at all, but he has
nevertheless had the work of digest
ing them.

FEEDING OF THE YOUNG PIG
re Do 1t Properly Is Both an Art and
q Science and Well Worth
Studying.

It is both an art and a science to
properly feed young pigs, and is some
thing we'll worth any farmers time to
study. The most economical gains
that a pig ever makes are made while
he 10 young, and upon his early
growth and the proper development
of his digestive system depends the
economy and success with which he
will later be fattened. Hence one
must consider not alone supplying the
nutriments to make continuous growth
but supply such feeds as will develop
and prepare the digestive system for
the handling Of the kinds and quanti-
ties Of feeds required in the finishing
process.
When the pig is born it's digestive
tract is filled with a manlre (the re.
suit of mucous %excretions probably,
called meconium. Nature has provid.
ed for the removal of this by making
the first milk of the dam very rich in
oily .globules which act as a laxative
