Rich Zinc Ore Found.

Harrison,-A late report from Mount Hersey in Newton County, indicates that one of the best mineral discov- cries ever made in that county has been made on the old Granby land, at a place not heretofore prospected. A few months ago the owners Leased a 40-acre tract to MT. Stump, who is a conductor on the road between Mem phis and St. Louis, who, in looking over the ground, went down to ledge which outcropped on the hill, and there found what he thought to be rich, ore bearing rock along the bluff
 He decided to have round of shots put in on the face of the bluff, which resulted in showing that the whole ledge carried good per cent of zine blende.
 They have uncovered it for a dis. tance of 30 yards along the hillside, and have broken off the ledge for distance of from 10 to 20 feet back, and it all carries ore, and in places they found solid chsnks of free zine blende which will weigh 50 to 100 pounds
 MT. Stump has satisfied himself that it is permanent body of ore, and has ordered concentrating plant.

Demonstration Farms Helpful.

Little Roek.-The movement to have a government demonstration farm or farms established in Pulaski county is meeting with the approval of many of the real estate men and active citizens, who realize the benefits to follow. The demonstrator from the government has proven very satisfactory and of great help ill many communities where he has been sent aa4t thought to be of equal value tSs t4fis \ sction
 In sPeakfGg of the result of demon strations W. W. Rightsell said a few days ago: 1.-The government demon stration farms are what has raised the Bermuda onions in Texas, for it was through government demonstration work that the soil was found to be adapted to the onion crop. The same is what has caused the eastern Arkansas lands to be used for the cultivation of rice and made what was considered cheap land very valuable
 F'The efforts of those who are trying to get government demonstration and a demonstration farm here should be given every encouragement and should be assisted by the farmers and land owners. Not only is instruction and in. formation given the farmer, but the land is increased in value as a result of the education given

Wood, reform leader and candidate for prosecuting attorney here, appear ed at an adjourned session of circuit court and made an address of an hour, setting forth that club rooms were in operation in the city, that he and other citizens had attempted to close them, but they could not get officers to act. He demanded that burning orders be issued forthwith and given over to the sheriff with orders from the court that they be served immediately

 Circuit Judge Evans issued the burn ing orders asked for against every club room in the city and Sheriff Houpt was ordered to serve them.

THE HORTICULTURAL REPORT.
State Printing Board Declines to Issue
 Proceedings in Bulletin.

In view of the fact that the State Horticultural Society is doing a great work for the state at large, and that the burden of the finances falls on the shoulders of comparatively few men, the question of the ability of the state to assist in the publication of the re ports of the society was discussed among members of the state printing board
 Secretary of State Ludwig sent q communication to the society stating that he would be willing to vote for the publication of the proceedings of the society, if it could be shown that the society was sufficiently connected with the agricultural experiment sta tion to warrant this action
 State Auditor lobe was inclined to think that the cost of publication could not be paid from the state print ing fund, as he did not regard the SO ciety as officially q department of the state government and believed the printing fund is confined to pay the ex- penses of the several departments.
 Guy B. Tucker, commissioner of mines, manufactures and agriculture, heartily endorsed the proposition, and in order to make sure that the public printing fund could be drawn upon to pay the expenses of the proceedings, called upon the attorney general for an official opinion as to whether the appro- priation could be used for that pur- pose. Commissioner Tucker stated that the printing of the proceedings of the society would be of great benefit to the farmers of Arkansas and to others outside of the state interested ill the agricultural development of the state, and suggested that the proceedings be printed to be used as a bulletin from the agricultural department of the state.
 At the meeting of the state printing board Mr Ludwig moved that the board authorize the printing of the report, which was voted down by the two oth- CT members, Governor Donaghey and State Auditor lobe.
 In giving his opinion to Commission CT Tucker as to the authority of the board to print the proceedings of the horticultural society, Attorney General NorWood says:
 . Answering your inquiry as to whether you would be authorized to make a acquisition for the printing of report of the proceedings of the State Horticultural Society. to be dis tributed as a bulletin from your office. I beg to reply that it occurs to me that this would very properly come within the scope of your duties as commissioner, and that the same could be paid for out of the $50,000 appro- priated for state printing
 CT believe the auditor would be war ranted in issuing a warrant against such appropriation to pay for such printing. It may not come technically within the provisions authorizing cer- tain matters to be printed, but many matters are printed for the informa- tion of the general public, and these matters are largely within the discre- tion of the respective state depart ments, and it certainly would be ex- pedient to distribute such valuable in- formation as the proceedings of this horticultural society among the fruit growers and farmers of Arkansas. :"
