Tue meeting at Mrs. lilies on the 18th inst. was quite success. Rev. Cooksey read the 10th chap ter of Exodus. Key. Park offered prayer. A song was sung, with Mrs. Legate at the piano, and an interesting paper by Mrs. Purdum was read. The discussion, "Will the Education of a Public Senti- ment to a Single Standard of Morals Eradicate to Large De- gree the Social Evil?" by Revs. Cooksey, Park and Irwin, resulted in the agreement that there should be a single standard of morals, but 1t would be better not to use morals as standard Of perfection, but that all should look to God and follow him and thus reach the true and perfect pattern; that much of the social evil results from the carelessness or inattention ot parents; that the young people of today have liberties too great. aud that the oareuts shorld watch over and guide, equally, both son and daughter. So much truth was propounded, SD many WIS tboue bts expressed and the char acter so forcibly dulineated that we could see that the shadow casl was the same that is without sex.

FOUR DROWNED IN
 FOURCHE LA FAVE
Knox Sanders Drove Team Into Stream and Wagon Bed Was Carried Off Gear and Capsized-B -Boatman
 Rescnes Three.

Waldron, April l4.-Four per. sons were drowned and three others narrowly escaped in the Fourche La Fave, five miles east of Parks, Tuesday, when wagon in which they were trying to ford the river, capsized ia midstream. Three were pulled from the river unconscious, and today 1t IS said that they might not recover. The dead:
 Miss Elizabeth Lears, l2 years old.
 Mrs. Thomas Lears, 35 years old.
 ~wo children of Mrs. Lears, aged ? and 4 years.
 All the bodies have been re- covered.
 Knox Sanders, 40 years old, his wife and infant son. were rescued by a boatmau, who was attracted to the scene by their cries. Recent rains in this section of the state have swollen Fourche La Fave into a torrent. 
 When Sanders drove in, the bed floated away from the run. ming gears in the middle of the river, and the occupants were un- able to cope with the current, Sanders made desperate effort to swim to shore with his wife and baby, but was forced dowr by the current twice before ait reached him.
 The cries of the people in the wagon attracted Mankius, who mmediately put out in boat He saw the loosened wagon bet capsize and the seven people plunge, screaming, into the water and at once went to the rescue succeeding in pulling three out O the water into the boat.
 Neighbors soon arrived aud ar ti6cial respiration was employed to revive them. The workers sue ceeded partially, It is said, bu when the three victims were car ried to the nearest house 1t wal declared that they might not re cover. The condition of the bab, | is considered most critical. 1 Sanders and his wife. with Mrs Lears and her family, were or their way to Parks when the mis hap occurred.

COTTON CONDITIONS GOOD
Leading Cotton Man Believes Prices Will Remain High Mechanical
 Picker Almost Hopeless.

Little Rock, April l3,-Even though Arkansas and the other states of the South should have a bumper cotton crop this season, P. P. Byrd of Pine Bluff, one of the leading cotton men ot the state, is of the belief that the price will remain above 12 cents. "The conditions have not been so favorable for good crop in years as they are today said MT. Byrd while in the city Tuesday attend ing jobbers convention, 'for the farmers have had pretty weather long enough to get their ground in condition, and a large percentage of the crop was plant ed in time.to get the advantage of the rains. Much cotton is now up. If we have big crop l do not expect 10 see the price go be- low l2 and IA cents, and II any thing happens to curtail the yield, the pric will be cores pondiugly high. l do not look for cheap cotton again. Experl- ments with cotton pickers Tn my section in the state are still going on and there is a machine no W perfected which the builders think will do the work, but there is no cotton to try it ou. 1 doubt very seriously if we will ever get mechanical cotton picker which which will do the work for the simple reason that all of the cot ton does not open at the same time. + 1t did, the result would be easy, for we could thresh 1t but with the top and bottom cot ton being about a month apart the mechanical cotton pickel seems almost hopeless.

 Mena, Ark.
 Dear Sir:-I have your letter of April Sth, reporting the selection of Magnolia instead of Mena, as the To- cation of agricultural school for Third district of Arkansas. It is, of course, very much regretted that Meua has lost this institution, but feel that yourself and your associates have done everything possible in your efforts to influence the committee to select Mena. Neither yourself nor the progressive citizens that are work ing so hard to develop Mena should be discouraged by this defeat but should work all the harder to locate other industries to take the place ol the school that has been lost. Yours truly, J. A. Edson.

PEACH ROT CAN BE CURED.
A Remedy Also Found for Several
 Apple Diseases.

Washington, April 13.-The Department of Agriculture be- llsses that it has found cures for the two most serious enemies of the fruit crops that affect the western states. They are the brown rot in peaches and a way of treating the apple trees so that nn harm IS done 10 the fruit from the use of chemicals. The de. par msnt IS prepared 10 furnish Information to farntrs aud fruit growers on application.
 Through experiments conduct ed largely iu Virginia, Missouri and Georgia, the ceparlment determined that by the use of a sell boiled lime-sul phur spray the brown rot of the peach could be absolutely cont oiled. This di- sease has probably cost an annual loss of not less than 2 million dollars.
 The wash is used as a spray, beginning after tue fruit has set m the spring and following with applications at intervals of three or four weeks for three or four sprayings. The self-boiled lime sulphur spray is one that can be used in summer. This has not been possible with fuugicides that have been used before on ac- count of the tender nature of the peach foliage and the injurious effect of lhe copper compounds used in spraying the trees while in foliage.
 The next most important deve'- opment in fruit diseases is in con- nection with the control of the apple scab, blotch and various other diseases which have been most serious in commercial apple growing. The Bordeaux mixture has been found to cause the rus seting ot the fruit and a great 1eal of injury to the foliage, to such an extent that many sections have stopped using the standard fungicada. By using the self boiled lime-sulphur spray, and by adding copper sulphate and iron sulphate 1t has been found, this last year, that the Iusseting ot apples can be controlled step that marks the most important epoch in apple orchard spraying iu twenty years.

SUIT OVER POWER
 SITE THREATENED
Proposed Dam at Ross Ford on 0uachita River in Montgomery County Will Not Be Built Until Contentious
 Are Settled.

Little Rock. April 15.-Before the question of which company, the Garland Power & Develop ment Company or the Ouachlta Power Company. shall dam the Ouachita river at Ross Ford, Montgomery county, has been settled, one of the biggest law suits in the history of the western part of the state is expected. While the Ouachita company IS vet to secure charter, the Gar land company having that much Of the advantage, the value ot the right is clearly shown by the work that has been done by the two companies in securing right of way for the overflow in that vicinity. The Garland company within the past year has acquired title to several hundred acres of land in the vicinity of Ross Ford, where the dam is to be located. Prior to their purchase, Sam Storthz of Little Rock, who i' supposed to be identified with the other concern, purchased an even larger tract, which adjolns that of the Garland company. Since the plans of the Garland company l became known, the agents of the opposition have been active and Storthz is said to have bought ul considerable land along the river

WAR DECLARED ON
 FLY AND MOSQUITO
A P.al "swat 'En" Canpaigl Started in Little Rock to Wip 0at Ma lafia "a Work for Law
 makers.

Lit le Rock, April IA. - W ar to inc knife upon the mosquito and ,h Il for the purpose of elimi- n,ting IS far IS possible malaria anu |, phoid fever. was decllfed ,.s piy ht al meeting of resi- deots of the south end of the city ., inc Arkansas School for the R,ua. Fo- The purpose of carry mo on thrs W .rflre aud driving these diseases from the district ,epresenied an Crg aniZdtiou was perlected and steps were taken 10 secure the co opeartion oi the council and city officials in the campaign.
 With the d, claration that every tune a death from typhoid fever occurs lu Little Rock some one is guilty of a municipal homicide, Dr. Morgan Smith told those present at the meeting that scien- tlsts had proved beyond doubt that the mo- quito was the sole means of communicating m malaria; !; that with the mosquito extcrmin- ated, malaria would disaI pear.
 A man is to be appointed for each of the forty-nine blocks h the district 10 act as sanitary off. cer for his block.
 The introductory speech was made by Superintendent Stephen D. Lucas of the blind school, who dt fined the ol ct of the society and talked generally about the fiy and mosquito and their rela iion to diseases.
 "It is easy to prevent the breed ing of mosquitos in small areas, /" he said. ''It is necessary to watch and attend to b lck yards, streams and pools in the neighborhood. {. In town branches and places un- der culyeTts where pools form there is an opportunity for mos quitos to breed.
 "1'he house fly is the most dan gerous and diff .ult to deal with of all.. The fly will breed from the egg to full grown fiy in two weeks" he declared. "The eggs will hatch in eight hours. The number of eggs one fly will lay at time IS l20.
 Says City Government is Stupid.
 "The mosquito is the only fac tor in the crusation of malaria, :" declared Dr. Morgan Smith. "He is one of the causes of yellow fe- yer also. What is our duty as citizens? What right has a man to breed an insect in his back yard that will go oyer his neigh bor's fence to hts house and there perhaps infect babies with dis ease? Oar municipal government IS stupid in not living up to and enforcing the laws of sanitation.
 "If our council would pass an ordinance declaring against con- ditions permitting the breeding oi mosquitoes on private premis .s and they could be successfully prohibited, malaria would De wiped out of Little Rock in two weeks"
