 Ben Johnson, IT,, sold milk COW Friday evening for the sum of S100. Claude Davis was the purchaser. Mir. Davis is in the dairy business and this COW will be quite an addition to his herd as tests show that she will aver age 2 pounds of butter per week.

 The returns from the various school districts of the county af- ford scant encouragement for the advocates of County Supervision and as for the fellow who fail- ed to agree with Mulkeepmo-a rhymster of the Hoosier State says.
 Never talk back to feller that's abusin' Jest let him carry or, and rip, and cuss and
 swear;
 And when he finds his lyin and his dammin' :
 jest amusin' you.
 You've got him clean kaflummixed, and
 you want to hold him there
 Never talk back, and wake up the whole
 community,
 And call a man aliar, over Law. eI Politics, You can lift and land him iurdeI and with
 gIacetulleI impunity
 With one good jolt of silence than half a
 dozen kicks" Sam Glaypoole and his little black mule makes several trips a week to Fayetteville to deliver milk products for the local dairy men. The Rogers people are not getting any goods here now as better prices are obtained at Fayetteville.
 Memorial Day services were held at the National Cemetery at Fayetteville Saturday, and on Thursday, June 3rd, Decoration Day services will be held at the Confederate Cemetery at Fayette- vile. A lot of Johnson folks at tended the services Saturday and others are arranging to go down on Thursday. These sad spring days bring solemn thoughts 10 those of Us who watch the limp ing march of the few gray-heads who make this yearly pilgrimage to garland the graves of their dead comrades so few of us ap- preciate these old fellows who finger yet
 Time rolls his ceaseless course The race

 Who danced our infancy upon their knee And told our marveling boyhood legends

 Of their strange ventures mapped by land or How are they plotted from the things that
 be-
 How few. all weak and withered of their
 force,
 Wait on the verge of dark eternity. Like stranded wrecks, the tide returning
 hoarse
 To sweep them from our sight Time rolls
 his eeaseless course"
 Mnlkeepmo has been in Ark ansas long time, and is ac- quainted with lot of people, but he has seldom enjoyed more pleasant day than that spent at Springdale Saturday. Folks were there from miles away and the most of them were there to attend the Strawberry Day doings. The Zion band played well and Mully regrets exceed ingly that all the boys were not along. The speakers acted well their parts, and Springdale should make this an annual gala day. Don't Worry was the only one of the correspondents that Mully met. He has promised to come down to "the reservation one of these bright spring days. The threatening clouds i'll the west caused several folks to de- part for home before the evening program was rendered, and Mully got safely back to Johnson short ly before the big rain-and il rained. Clear Creek and all the branches were higher than a week ago. It is an established fact that it "allns rains on Decor. ation Day"
