The electric power plant is to furn-

ready been paid about $4,000. The
cost of power machinery Is $4,000;
rice mill machinery, $4,000; rice mill
buildings, $4,000. It will require
about 100000 feet of lumber for the
various buildings.
Two of the large boilers, weighing
ten tons each, came in short time
ago and are now in place ready for
the masonry, the concrete work hav-
ing been completed.
The rice industry of Arkansas
means millions Of dollars to the state,
and it comes from lands that have not
been considered very valuable for
other farm products. It opens up the
finest field for investment in the state
as the rice crop gets its nourishment
from the water and the atmosphere
and the water supply is unlimited.

Eating Oysters.

Surely the queerest way Of cooking
an oyster is that mentioned in the
year 1872. when Richardson. the fire
eater. took live coal on his tongue;
on this he put raw oyster in Its shell.
while an attendant blew upon the coal
with bellows until 1t famed and spar
kled in his mouth. This continued
until the oyster opened and was per-
fectly cooked
The European Magazine for 1905
contains an account Of 4 young lady

Wheatley, Ark. June 12.-Wheatley
% one OF the old towns of Eastern
Arkansas. 1t has only four hundred
or five hundred Inhabitants, still it
has always enjoyed nice little trade
derived from about two thousand
bales Of cotton, q few carloads of
prairie hay and a little timber bust
ness.
The timber has been practically
cut, and the lands that have been in
cultivation for many years are. not SO
fertile as they used to be. Still the
town has held its own and slowly i'm
proved q little. It has always main
tanned q good school and has plenty
OF churches. first class cotton gin
and sawmill. as well as a good spoke
factory, which is in full operation.
The population Is pretty well divided
rs to whites and blacks, but harmony
has always prevailed. the whites al
ways showing disposition to give
the negro what was his due.
Are Prairie Lands.
The lands east, northeast and south
east OF Wheatley are prairie. which
up to three years ago was not consid-
cred Of much value for farming pur-
poses, as 1t is underlaid with hard
pan which was considered great det-
riment to the land, as the water that
fell had to either run off or be taken
up by evaporation. but now things
have very much changed. What was
considered a detriment to the land
now proves its salvation.
Three or four years ago A. Bryson
conceived the idea of raising rice on
the prairie land. He spent several
thousand dollars In his experiments,
which have given the most flattering
results. growing from fifty to one hun.
