New Superintendent of Lonoke
 Schools.

Prof. Oscar E. Williams of Fayetteville has been elected superintendent of the Lonoke schools.
 The Lonoke School Board has chosen wisely. Prof. Williams is young man of high integrity, farseeing ability and untiring energy. He takes charge of his new position fully prepared from standpoint of both train ing and experience. He is re- cent graduate of the University of Arkansas and during his col lege career he was the recipient of many honors and won for him. self reputation for brilliancy as student. He has had a num- Der of years experience as a teacher and is regarded in North west Arkansas as a successful educator. Success will crown him in his new location.
 Prof. Williams has had con ferred upon him a position of importance and responsibility at an unusually young age.
 It is the day of the young man. Young men everywhere are filling places of trust and significance. Time was when people hesitated to place young men in such positions but for tunately that day has passed and now, when young man com pines ability of a high order with fixed determination to succeed as does the subject of this arti- cle, he is doubly to be preferred.
 The Lonoke School Board has made no mistake in it's selection.

Better Horses Needed.

leIe Is d cdU IlCCo III ellC southwest for all kinds of good horses. Plugs we have in abundance. The breeding of horses for the market has for many years been neglected in this section, on account of the price for them not justifying the expense, time and care demand
 ed in breeding and rearing of them. Horses in recent years have been and are now in active demand for good serviceable animals of any type and bring their owners satisfactory prices. This demand is not likely only to be maintained but will increase for desirable stock. The good road movement, now exciting action, to have them. will further stimulate a greater use for the horses. The requirements of the government for cavalry and draft grades are enlarging and foreign countries are coming to America to secure good army horses. There is a deficiency in the southwest, particularly in Arkansas, of well bred stallions and brood mares of all kinds. the former especially. Draft, coach, roadsters and saddlers are all wanted. In communities where there is not sufficient pat ronage to warrant one person in buying and keeping a stallion for public service, it is feasible proposition for a number of neighbors to unite in purchasing for their own use and incidetally for others. a well bred stallion of any type most suitable to their wants. There are some such clubs in existence at this time, which are successfully operated on this line. MT. Boyd McLen- don, of near Lacava, in Sebastian county, Ark, in the past two or three years has imported quite a number of German coach stal- lions, a very desirable breed of general utility for this vicinity and sold them to clubs of farm CTS in western Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma with doubt less profit to himself and certain ly great benefit to the country. There is needed more men like Mir McLendon to bring into our midst valuable stallions, bulls. boars, rams and high standard grades of fowls. Such men are public benefactorS and the more there are of them like him the better it will be for everybody, and more money for the farm Southwest Farmer.

Power From the John Day

A company headed by Fl. V.
Gates and taking in local and east
ern capital has fled water rights
on the John Day river, about twelve
miles above Monument, for the
purpose of constructing a power
plant to supply Heppner with light
and power.
The company has surveyed out a
ditch and power site and filed
rights on it and has also surveyed
out dam site where the river can
be put over fall of 20 feet. 1t is
not likely that either project will
be touched until ne6t spring or
summer, as Mr.. Gates desires to
travel in Mexico and other states,
looking over different projects
where dams are used. From either
project plant with a capacity OF
developing 1000 horsepower is to
be installed, which will give Hepp.
ner and Morrow county plenty o'
power and light for some years to
come.

Sheepmen Hold Lambs.

A. L. Bunnell and A. E. Harden,
Klickitat sheepmen have returned
to Goldendale from Glenwood
where they looked after their focks
on the summer range in the Mt.
Adams country. They report a
number of buyers in the field for
lambs and mutton sheep for the
fall market. Buyers are Offering
to contract Spring lambs, on the
range for $3.50 with 5 per cent
cut. The sheepmen are not dis
posed to sell at this figure as the
grass is good and their sheep are
in excellent condition. Some of
them expect to receive as high as
81 without cut for their lambs,
but the ruling price will probably
be 1915 to 1888. while choice lots
of spring lambs may bring 81. The
output of Spring lambs and mutton
from Klickitat county will be un-
usually large this year as weather
conditions during the lambing sea-
son were very favorable and many
growers will take advantage of the
high prices offered and sell close.
Sheep from the Mt. Adams Forest
reserve are driven from Glenwood
to Lyle and shipped from there to
Portland and Seattle markets. A
few years ago nearly all of the
sheep from this territory were mar
keted at Troutdale but for the past
two or three years Sound buyers
have been unusually active in this
field.

A. Real Country Editor.

The Franklin Printer asks,
"What is a real country editor" AS
if it were conundrum. Every
DO oIy knows what a real country
editor is. But for fear there may
be some who doubt their Own judg-
ment we will say that the country
editor is man, sometimes woman,
who never does anything right,
who knows nothing about anything
worth while, is the target for all of
the abuse of the eighborhood, who
can say all manner of nice things
without praise, can mention all
sorts of people without thanks, but
let word appear that does not
quite tally with the views of "old
subscriber who is likely three
years behind with his subscription /,
and heilistopsy at once.
The country editor is the free
horse, the OBSERVER of all adverse
criticism and the only one in the
community who does not know
how to run newspaper.
