 Jas. Venable, our Elm Springs correspondent, was up Saturday, and he reports that in that sec ton there will be at least fifty per cent of an apple crop. In some sections there has been com plaint of apples falling from the trees, but Mr. Nenable says such Is not the case in the vicinity of Elm Springs. There now seems to be but little doubt but what we will have good apple crop this season.
 J. w. Hughes, residing III the vicinity of Johnson, was in town Friday and called and renewed for The News. Mr. Hughes re- gently returned from Alton, Oklahoma, where lie had been to see his son, Arthur Hughes, who was kicked in the face by horse. When MT. Hughes lett Alton his son was getting along nicely, but after arriving home he received word to the effect that there was little show for the young man to recover. He is tWenty-four years of age, is married and has wife and two children.
 Bob Boydston and family came in Friday afternoon from Vest vile, Oklahoma, and will spend few days visiting relatives at this place. Bob IS running barber shop at Westville, and few days ago met with all accident which will "put him out of busi- ness for several days. He uses coal oil stove, and one of tie local dealers sold him gasoline instead of coal oil, and when 1t was lgnited there was an explos- ion, which burned several of his fingers He IS fortunate that 1t Was not more serious.
 Harry Terrell and Ira Martin came in few days ago from Illi- nois and have rented the Opera House and will operate moving picture show. They call it the "Casino, and opened up Satur- day night. It seems that Spring. dale ought to support such a place of amusement, when other towns have from two to three, and we believe 1t will If properly conducted. Messrs. Terrell and Martin expect their families i'll soon. They have the appearance of being energetic young men, and The News wishes them SIC cess.
 Bob Atwood lost fine milk COW last week from eating too much clover and green stuff, and We have heard of a number of other cows being sick from the same cause. When first affected the cows swell rapidly, and unless given immediate relief death soon results. H. A. Daily had an experience with the disease last week with his COW, and he succeeded in saving hel by tying stick in her mouth which kept the mouth spread open until the swelling departed. Others hav- ing cows similarly affected might try this remedy to advantage. Fasten the stick in the mouth just as a bridle bit IS held in q horses mouth.
 Among the names dropped from the News subscription list on May l on account of their subscription having expired was that of Floyd Thompson, of De Queen, son of Mir. and Mrs. A. l.. Thompson of this place. In response to our notice Floyd pro- ceeds to "hand us package as follows: sSend your old paper on; here is q check for 2.50. Guess you will move to Tonti- town when the railroad gets there. Pay in advance and you will get another railroad" That's all right, Floyd, we believe the people would be willing to pay for the railroad in advance if they felt 1t was as sure as the regular coming of The News.
