An Arkansas Boost

From the handsome colored cover'page portraying in a wreath the products of Arkan. sas, the spirit of the state ore. vails in the September issue of the National Magazine. The edi- tor, Joe Mitchell Chapple, made an extensive tour of the state with his associates, mingled with the people and has written an ac. count of The Awakening of Ar kansas, which is geography and history up.to date. Nearly every county and city in the state was visited, and the story will do much to bring the attention of the people of the nation to the remarkable resources of Arkansas now being develop. ed.
 MT. Joe Mitchell Chapple writes pictorial and personal story that glows with the hospit. able courtesy which was extend. ed to him in the various places visited. This magazine will be preserved in every home in Ar kansas, and will be sent broad cast by her people to friends in other parts of the country who may not have a conception of the wonderful strides toward devel- Opment being made in this state. Thousands of acres are being re- claimed and added to the fruitful farm lands, the great mineral re sources are yielding untold wealth, while the homes, schools and general development in Ar kansas are unsurpassed by any state in the Union in proportion to it's population.
 Arkansas Reverie," i" by Opie Reed, is a literary classic in it's way, and fitting tribute from the former editor of the Arkansas Traveller. Mr. W.R. Lighton, who recently awoke en- thusiasm with his story, My Arkansas Farm, has written another article for this special number.
 Altogether, the Nationals $ story of Arkansas, ref ling her splendid progress and immense opportunities for future 'nvelop- ment, should stir the [ Ide and stimulate the interest Of every one within the state.

$35O,OOO FOR
 62,ooo ACRES

That Arkansas lands are the most attractive investment in the United States is the opinion of E. w. Grove, the millionaire medicine manufacturer of St. Louis. Within the past three years he has purchased through J. k. B. Moore of Little Rock 62,000 acres in eighteen counties of Arkansas paying S350,000 therefor.
 Mir. Groves policy of investing his surplus money is to put it in Arkansas lands. He turns down stocks, bonds, securities and other popular forms of invest ment in favor of the broad lands of this commonwealth. He has announced to Mr. Moore that he intends to plant S100,000 annual ly in Arkansas acres. Mir. Grove is reputed to be worth some S5, 100000, and part of his yearly profits come to this State. He is spending the summer in Yellow, stone Park and Mir. Moore thinks he will make a visit to Arkansas this fall
 MT. Grove has purchased 28,- 900 acres in Nevada County, 15,- 900 acres in Prairie, 7,0O0 in Desha, and 6,O0O in Drew Coun- ty. Other smaller holdings are in the following counties: Hemp stead, 4,200 acres; Woodruff, 3, 900; Pike, 2,OO0; Monroe, 1000; Phillips, 1, 100; Jefferson, 1,057; Ouachita, 52C; Polk, 24O. He has 160-acre tracts in Carroll, Madi- son, Johnson, Lonoke, Faulkner and Arkansas Counties.
 The 15, 5,000-acre tract in Prairie County is known as Groves ranch" since he is making a great stock farm of it. Robert Caldwell, formerly of Tennessee, is the manager, and it is being developed into one of the great model places of Arkansas. In Pike, Hampstead and Nevada the three tracts join each other, and on this aggregate of 34,200 acres thirty-nine are farms. Messrs. Grove and Moore want to bring German and other up-to-date farmers from the North to settle on these places and by scientific, modern methods inspire native farmers nearby to progressive agriculture.
 When one of Mir. Groves tracts is sold he immediately reinvests in other Arkansas lands. That he is a wise and judicious finan- cier is proven by the fact tha t some tracts purchased three years ago for $5 per acre are now valued at $20. MT. Moore, who has been his agent since he first came to invest in Arkansas, says that MT. Grove was the only pat ent medicine man in the country who has ever put his money back

REPORT OF NEVADA
 COUNTY GRAND JURY
To the Hon. J. M. Carter, Judg e
 of the Nevada Circuit Court:

of the Nevada Circuit Court:
 We the Grand Jury having completed our labors beg to sub- mt this our final report:
 We have examined 31 witness. es, and have returned 19 Bills of Indictment
 We have returned indictments Tn all cases wherein our iudg- ment the evidence would warrant doing so.
 We find the books of the seve- ral County officers neatly and well kept. We did not enter in to all the accounts of the differ ent officers, accepting in the main the report of the Commis- sloners of Accounts, appointed for that special work. We find only small balance due by Con- stables and would recommend that the County Court look after these small delinquents. All the Justices of the Peace have filed their reports as the law directs, as we'll as all the COnStableS. and we find that the Road Overseers have all reported under the man. ner of the work as now conducted in the County Court.
 We appointed a committee to look over and investigate the county farm and from their re port we find the farm in good condition and well kept. We rec. ommend that the farm be sold and that forty acres be bought nearer Prescott, as the farm is an out of the way place and more land in our opinion than the County needs.
 We visited the county jail and find it in a sanitary condition and we'll cared for. We would call the attention of the County Judge to the damaged condition of the' West corner of jail build. ing and recommend that he pro ceed at once to have necessary repairs to protect the property. We ask that the old jail build ing in the south corner of the court house yard be torn down and removed from the court house yard. Itis a very un- slightly structure and should not be allowed to remain there any longer.
 In conclusion we wish to con graduate the County upon the fidelity and care exercised by the County officers. The Clerks books and records are unusally we'll kept The Collecting off cers have settled fully on time. We note that Mir. Hood the Sher- if will retire at the end of his present term, after years of faithful service. The citizenship of the County has had in him a faithful officer.
 Thanking your Honor and the officers of the Court for prompt ness and efficient manner in as sistlng in the discharge of our duties.

ROAD BUILDING EXPERIMENTS
Results of Tests Made Near Harris
burg, Pa, of New Methods.

Important changes in the matter of
constructing state highways are likely
to be made as a result Of experiments
being conducted by the Pennsylvania
state highway department. These were
begun two years ago, when it became
apparent that under the stress of in
crcasing automobile traffic the ordi-
nary standard macadam roads could
not be kept in first class condition
without expensive repairs.
The various experiments have been
made in the vicinity of Harrisburg, in
order to be frequently inspected. The
first was piece of road built on what
Is called the penetration system in
1908 Upon the usual foundation VAS
placed layer of crushed stone, half
the thickness of that ordinarily used
in macadam construction, and into
the intcrsticcs was poured an as
phaltic oil containing about so per
cent of asphalt. The surface of the
road was then covered with dry stone
screenings and the mass rolled. Al
though subjected to heavy traffic for
over a year. the road shows but little
evidence of wear and is nearly duStlcSS.
