it is but a comparatively easy matter
to ruin the work of several months
on the part of the home-owner.
Offenses this year are uncalled for,
say the officers, for the reason that
there is no shortage of flowers, and
they may be secured at minimum
figure. An effort will be made to APP
prehend those who so far forget their
rights as to appropriate anothers
flowers, and it may go hard with
someone before the spring season
closes.

"REMINISCENCES OF
OLD DAYS IN COURT
Witnesses in the HanIey Case Tell O
the Times When Sheepmen and
Cattle Raisers Were
at War.

the bad condition of the fence around
the government land Rieder said that
when Peter French was master of the
land nobody dared enter it. During the
grazing season the stock Of others was
kept out He told of continual antag
onism between the sheep and cattle
men,
"The latter claimed that sheep rem
dered the grass unfit for their stock to
feed on. This was one reason the
fence was erected.
William Allen, Hanley's foreman.
testified that the fiocks and herds of
all people were allowed to feed on the
Hanley enclosure.
r. H. Born, sheepman, confirmed
the statement, and said over 5000, 900
sheep feed in that region and that
some of the sheep belong to coyote
herders from California. Nevada and

posts at intervals in the fence.

AFTER THE CATTLE TICK.
Address at Farmers Institute ,Favors
 Strict Quarantine.

Evening Shade-That the possibili- ty of protitably raising blooded cattle in Arkansas depends upon the eradi- cation of the cattle tick was a point made by State Veterinarian w Len ton of the agricultural station at Fay etteville, who was the chief speaker on the program of the Farmers Insti- ute here.
 Dr. Lenton urged upon the farmers the great desirability of having the Federal quarantine lines moved south ward by exterminating the tick in those counties of the state which have not already been cleaned He said the farmers of Randolph, Clay, Law renee, Greene, Carroll and Benton counties, which are now above the quarantine lines, can get more for their cattle than can those below the line. He urged the necessity of the state approbriaing money not only to prosecute the work of eradication, but of preventing the feinfection of those counties already cleansed, but which have not been excluded from the Federal quarantine.

 Two crops of potatoes are grown here every year. The first will begin to mature about June 6 to s, and ship ments will then begin. About June 15 blackberries will come on and keep the pickers busy for 40) to 45 days. Present prospects for that crop are excellent.

That trademark is safeguard against paint trouble.
