SORRDLLS' CASE
 IS TAKEN UP
Little Rock Would Follow in Foot steps of Pine Bluff in Dealing
 With It's Water Company.

Little Rock, Feb. S.-On motion of Alderman William Rogoski, the pro- posed ordinance giving the Arkansaw Water Company the right to install meters in every house and business place in Little Rock, was withdrawn when brought up at the council meet ing last might. Immediately after the roll call and the reading of the minutes of the last meeting Alder man Rogoski, as chairman of the Electrical Committee, moved that the ordinance be withdrawn, giving as 1ls reasons that the ordinance was apparently resented and disapprov- ed by the people. The motion was carried by a unanimous vote and without discussion.
 Alderman J. H. Hollis introduced an ordinance which was read for in- iofmatlon and later referred to the ci'y attorney to be re-drafted which required "that the Arkansaw Water company be compelled to take the water to the curb line, thus saving tle consumer payment of $2.50 for tue tapping of the mains and also 'ae cost of piping water from the @alns to the curb.' MT. Hollis in FAplalnlng his reasons for submit uag the ordinance said that this ex- pense had been previously borne by tne consumer, the plumber paying 'lis expense and in turn charging it ~ the consumer. MT. Hollis cited the usclsion of the Supreme Court in the 0ase Of the Pine Bluff Water and
 asnt Company vs- Mayor Toney, the U0c'slon rendered Oct. s1, 1909.

THE POULTRY INDUSTRY

 In spite of the fact that many hand leaps exist. the poultry industry of this state has made wonderful pro- gross in the last few years. In speak ing of handicaps. let 1t be understood that we do not refer to natural cor- ditiens found in the state. for we have the ideal climate and soil for poultry growing as it is found no where else in the world. but rather to seemingly lethargy of the peo- pie in not taking advantage of the opportunities lying at their doors. It only ill the past two or three years that there has been a general awakening to it's possibilities, duning which time the poultry industry has been receiving portion of the at tention that Is its due.
 It is no use denying the fact that Arkansas is far from being abreast her sister states, eithen in ths pro- duction of market poultry and GEES or in the matter of high class fancy and exhibition stock But let me :In- press it inde]ibly on youl niind dear reader, that all Arkansas Leeds is proper boosting and she will Set 4 pace that will mako the pou try world sit up and rub it's eyes in astcuisn- ment.
 Poultry as a dependable farm crop does not seem to appeal to many of our !armens. Just why this is SO. we have never been fully able to understand. Live poultry is in con stant demand everywhere at from 6 to zo cents per pound. dependent on the age of the product and the sea son of the year.

MistIetoe . Menace.

Few people who know mistletoe only as desirable feature of Christmas decorations understand that the plant is parasite dangerous to the life of trees in the regions in which 1t grows. It is only question of time after mistletoe once begins to grow upon a tree before the tree itself will be killed. The parasite saps the life of the infected branches. Fortunately it is of slow growth. taking years to de velop to large proportions. but when neglected it invariably ruins all trees 1t reaches. The only method of exter- imitation is the cutting down of dis eased trees.-Exchange.

Declined the Inxitatlea.

4 somewhat striking story dealing with the now obsolete conventional suicide, harakiri, or happy dispatch" !" once common in Japan, was once told by the French Admiral Gourdon. When he was young man he had 8 comrade who, having assisted in the organizing of the Japanese navy, was subsequently raised to the rank of ad- miral in that force. He took the part of the tycoon against the mikado in the revolutionary war and, having been captured, was tried by court mar tiaI and sentenced to death, which in those days implied harakin. When, however, the fatal sword was pre- scented to him he fatly refused to kill himself and declared that if he was to die somebody else must kill him. Threats and entreaties alike proved unavailing. He resolutely refused The whole of Japan was scandalized at such immoral behavior, which, how ever, saved his life. The Japanese penal code h. never contemplated such a continr ncy as man inhuman enough to refuse the harakiri, and in the end he was banished from the country and returned to France.
