How to Bone Collars.

The collars on all the waists ara
higher than they have been for years
but, strange TO say, they are not at
all uncomfortable, for they are cut
I'm such a way that the heed can
move easily. They are not at all like
the old style CHECKERS that almost
sawed our heads on. but they are
shaped 10 u comfortable height un-
der the chin and gradually slope mp
until they almost touch the ears. ANA
from here they follow the line of the
hair.
:; Is impossible to keep these coll
lars in place without boning them
well, and these bones should be care
fully sewed in or else they will dig
into the neck when the head is NOV
ed. Collar supporters can be bought
ready to be sewed into the collar,
and any height can be procured.
To bone a collar properly one
should have five bones, one for tie
back and two for each side. The ono
FOR the middle OF the back should
De seWed ON the right side OF the
Jac& ana should be sewed straight
IN and down. The two highest
bones should be sewed on under each
ear ana should be slightly slantec
rhe bones should be slanted togard
he back. so that the head can move
freely The smaller bones should be
| slanted also.
Many people prefer featherbone to
the prepared supporters, and when
these are to be sewed into q wash
waist the best way is to sew little
| tape pockets into the collar and slip
the bones into these, so that when
| the waist is ready for the laundry
they can be removed easily and re-
| placed easily.

To Save the Fruit

A novel scheme is being en- ploy' d by an association of or chardists at Rogers in order to save their fruit crops from be- ing killed.
 A consignment of 4500 Cor chard heaters" have been pur- chased and will be placed in the orchards.
 Crude oil is to be used as fuel and when cold snap comes along that is calculated to kill the fruit these stoves will be fired up and the temperature of the orchard will be kept above the freezing point. Oil will be TUT chased fir m the Tulsa oil field, a 21000- gallon cement tank having been constructed to store it in.
 The Rogers Repnbli Jour nal says that if the experiment proves success as it has 1T Colorado and New Mexico, 300, GOO stoves will be ordered b, 1 Rogers growers next season.

Col. Nunnal1y Attends
 Banquet at Little Rock.

Col. Len Nunnally, the veter- an shoe salesman, was called to Little Rock during the holidays to attend banquet given by the Norton Berger Shoe Co.,, at the New Capital Hotel in honor of the employees of the company, at which gathering the Colonel was scheduled to relate the "Ex- periences of one who knows the travelling game" and but for the fact that we have since noticed him on the streets of Green Forest, we might conclude that Col. Nunnallv is there talking until yet, for we are certain he could not do the subject justice under two weeks; and we do not mean to convey the idea that Col. Nunnally is affected with stoppage of speech either. He has a gift of gab that is a genu- inc asset, and when he is able Ito deliver the goods," as he is when backed such firms as N2rton- Berger, it is little wonder that he is one of the most popular drum mers on the road.
 At this meeting of the employ es of this popular shoe firm it was decided that Arkansas is of right entitled to a million dollar shoe house and accordingly 8 campaign is set for it in 1910. Col. Nunnally agrees to do his -hare and he will do it. His component parts consist princi- rally of get-up-and-g get. He has nothing else to do but to work.
 Green Forest people are prou d of the citizenship Of Col Nun naliy becanse, like the Norton Berger Shoe, he is made out of good material, and we find some special pride in the fact he hap pens to represent a home institu- ton that is trying hard to keep at home a few of the vast mill lions that float to eastern markets on account of the shoe industry.
 Since going with Norton Berg CT Mr. Nunnaly tells us that he has sold more shoes and has done more satisfactory busi- ness all round than he has ever done before in his long career as a commercial traveller. He is well deserving of such success.

STILL BEGGING AWAY
Oil Drilling Proceeds Slowly
 During the Bad Weather

Severe weather and hard rock have both tended to retard the progress of the work upon the oi1 we'll the past week, but the drill . era are still pounding away, the 1 depth now reached being sup posedly between 100 and 200 feet The Tribune is not keeping tab upon the number of feet and in- ches ae the drill proceeds down : ward, for the reason we have no very accurate means of keeping up with it. For reasons best known to themselves, it seems, the prospe"tors do not givr out the depths at every turn of the drill, and as that is matter that concerns them m re than it does the public, we will not fall out with them about it.
 There is one thing we can say for certain and that is the pros ptctors have not yet found any thing to scouraSe them in their campaign to open an oil field here. The couple of pockets of gas struck during the past week only brought a natural smile to the faces of Payne and Dodd. The editor inquired of MT. Dndd if such experience was unusual in drilling prospect wells. He said no. not where oil and gas are to be found. It might be very unusual where they do not exist.
 If you have not visited the prospect we'll, you are welcome to call any time. You will find 8 genteel set of men in charge and ihey will do their hest to make you feel at home. If the news paper reports are not satisfactory go over and get the news first handed.
