ing for $25.9O The porker weighed 3zO pounds and brought seven cents a pound. Farmers who are losing money through the ravages of the boil weevil, floods and drouths should consider this fine source of revenue. Hogs need to be fed only about thre months in the year in this climate and they pay heavily on the invest ment. Especially is this true of the better strains. Arkansas is ridiculed of her razor backs, but anyone who will investigate vii see on many of our farms as fine strains of hogs as can be foune anywhere. With our climate, tn splendid range which is available 1T most sections, and the ease witt which the best hog food. such a. alfalfa and coWpeas can be pro duced, Arkansas might soon be famous for her hogs as Missouri is for her mules.

CATCH COLORED BOYS

Raymond Bass. the small colored
boy. who stole a horse and buggy from
his employer. c. J. Ayres, five miles
east of Milton, last week, and left it
the next day out by the show grounds
on North Nineteenth street, was found
at the Connersville fair yesterday by
MIR. Ayres, who Immediately brought
the youth to this city and gave him
over to the custody of the police Bass
admitted that he had stolen the outfit
but stated that he lust wanted to take
a ride" He doesn't appear to realise
the seriousness Of his offense or the
fact that he has done anything wrong.
It is thought by the police that he was
encouraged to steel the horse and rig
by some other person and that he did
not do it on his own responsibility.
What to do with the boy is a puzzle to
Chief Staubach. but he will very prob
ably be bound over to the Juvenile
court, 1t is said.

Usefulness.
WANT. EARLHAM AS A SITE
NEW WEST RICHMOND coNGRE-
CATION WILL ASK THE YEARLY
MEETING At ITS SESSION TO
TAKE ACTION.

In view of the fact that facilities
at East Main Street Friends church
are neither ample or perfect to accom-
modate a Yearly Meeting, nor even
small gatherings, the important ques-
tion of tearing down the church and
building another on Earlham campus
will be considered at the Whitewater
Quarterly Meeting of Friends. next
Saturday. The decision of this body
will then be handed down to the Year
ly Meeting for its approval or disap-
proval, when it convenes September
IL.
At a called meeting Of the West
Richmond Friends. held this week, the
matter was considered and the body
determined to ask the Yearly Meeting
to cooperate with them and build a
church, sufficiently large and with am
pie accommodations. suitable for the
holding of the Yearly Meeting, in Earl
ham campus.
Means Smaller Church.
Providing the Yearly Meeting APP
proves of the course, the East Main
Street Friends church will be torn
down and another structure, but much
smaller. erected for the members of
this church 1t will also mean the
plating of the square for residence
purposes.
One of the members Of the West
Richmond Friends church said today.
that the organization had decided to
build a church on Earlham campus
in the near future. He said that
while no estimate had been made by
any architect on the proposed church.
the body was willing to invest $685.
900 in a meeting house.
He said that the body was DESTROYS
to have the Yearly Meeting cooper
ate with the West Richmond Friends
and build new Yearly Meeting house
on the campus. A new Yearly Meet
ing house will be a necessity in a
few years as the present church, at
Fifteenth and Main streets. is out of
repairs and large sum will have to
be spent in few years in order to
restore it to good condition. The pre-
sent Yearly Meeting house is also
undesirably arranged. At the time
of it's construction. the matter of ar
ranging a large auditorium SO that a
speaker could be heard even in the
remotest corner, was not thoroughly
understood.
