KILLED OVER 15 CENTS
Hub Dunn Shot by John Ruddell in Public Road Near Tuck
 erman Monday Morning

Tuckerman, Sept. 18.-A dispute oyer fifteen cents eliminated in the death of Hub Dunn and the arrest of John Ruddell, charged with murder; near Tuckerman this morning.
 The two men were neighbors and some time ago Ruddell used the telephone at the residence of his neighbor to call a doctor. The charge for same was fifteen cents for each message which was charg- ed to the owner of the phone. When the time came to pay, Dunn claimed that Ruddell owed him for four messages. The latter said 1t was only three and the matter was still unsettled.
 Thismorning Dunn and his fam fly were hauling a load of corn in their wagon when they met Rud- dell on a horse coming from Tuck ernan.
 The dispute was renewed when Dunn is alleged to have threatened Ruddell and reached for a gun in the wagon. Ruddell who was arm ed with shotgun, fired, emptying the entire load of shot into the breast of Dunn killing him almost instantly.
 After the tragedy Ruddell rode to the home of Constable Ritchie and surrendered.

0LDFIELD ANNOUNCES
Popular Congressman From This District Announces his Can-
 didacy For Reelection

The Journal takes pleasure in presenting to our readers this week the announcement of Hon. w. A. OIdfeld of Batesville as a candi- date for reelection to congress.
 Mr. Oldfeld is now serving his second term in congress and has never given the people of the dis trict the slightest cause to regret having chosen him as their repre- sentative at the national capitol. He has made the people an able, sturdy, conscientious representa- tive. Not a blemish mars his re- cord and he has never lodged a vote. He is q man of the people, is thoroughly familiar with the needs of the people, he isprogressiye and is always on the alert for an op- portunity to be of benefit to the people of the district
 Although quite a young man, Mr. Oldfeld has proven one of the strongest of the Arkansas delega- tion in congress. His work has been as effective as that of any man in the House. This fact is fully recognized by the party lead CTS, and last summer he did such effective work that MT. Byran strongly commended him in an edi- torial in The Gommoner.
 It has never been the policy of the people to retire man from congress at the end of his second term if he has made good, and that MT. Oldfeld has made good, not even his opponents will deny. Speaker Champ Clark has been in congress eighteen years, and We might mention many others who have served from six to twelve years, but deem it entirely unnec- essary, as the people all know that congressional terms are measured by meritorous service rather than by length of years. They know, too, that in Billie Oldfeld they have a faithful, honest and able servant in whom they can place implicit confidence.

FIGHT THE CATTLE TICK
Annual Loss to the Farmers of Arkansas From These Pests
 is S20O, ,00O or More

Commissioner Clay Sloan of the State Department of Agriculture in a letter to the farmers, urges the necessity of getting together to have a law passed by the next legislature for the eradication of the Texas cattle tick.
 There Is a law now which pro- vides for fighting the tick, but it is considered inadequate, as it ap- plies to only a small portion of the state. The present law applies to a portion of Independence county, but, strange as 1t may seem, is op- posed by some farmers, whose chief objection to 1t seems to be the small cattle-tax they are re- quired to pay.
 Mir. Sloan declares that if the people of Arkansas were to ship the 100000 head of cattle now be- low the quarantine line, to Chica- go, they would realize $200,000 less than if they were in good condi- ton, and that this $200,000 wisely expended, would kill all the ticks in Arkansas.
 Some interesting information in regard to the damage inflicted by the cattle tick is given by MT. Sloan. He says that it has been estimated that one tick can draw 200 pounds of blood from one animal in a sea- son. He says that it is estimated by the United States Department of Agriculture that Arkansas lost eight per cent of its cattle last year by diseases of all kinds, while Minnesota, Wisconsin, Kansas and other northern states, even with their long severe winters, lost only two per cent.

WANT NEW TOWNSHIP
Would Divide Big Bottom and Add Slice From Logan and
 Wycough Townships

There is a rumOr aflOat that the next session of the county court will be asked to create a new town ship from a portion of Big Bottom and number of prominent citi- zens of Newark have expressed themselves in favor of the scheme.
 The plan is to create a new township of the eastern half of Big Bottom, dividing the township on north and south line, and give Big Bottom a slice off of Lo- gan and Wycough to make up for a part of her loss of territory.
 The proposed line of division be- gins on White River at the section line at the southwest corner of section 26-12-4, and runs north on the section line to the Logan town ship line, making a new township of that portion of Big Bottom now lying east of this line.
 People of Newark whom The Journal man has interviewed on the subject say they will offer no strenuous objections, to the move ment, provided the petitions for the change are so amended as to give Big Bottom a slight exten- sion northward. In order to do this it is proposed to continue the division line north another mile, so far as this township IS concern cd, to the northwest corner Of sec ton 35-13-4; thence westward on the section line to Magness town ship. This will cut a small section about a mile square from Logan and add it too Big Bottom and will cut off a strip a mile wide the en- tire length of Wycough and add it to Big Bottom.
 It is argued by those in favor of the change that it is movement solely in the interest of better roads, and they claim that each township affected will be benefit ted by the change.

 By dividing this into ten pay ments we will not know that we have been out any money-in fact it means very little to any one. This will add to the property value in Newark and show to the people who come here that we are d live, wide-a-wake and progressive peo- pie. It will be permanent, and as soon as this is paid for we can build other walks and soon have

THE FARMERS
Government Demonstration Work Has Proven a Big Success
 For Arkansas Tanners

The farm demonstration cam paign inaugurated in this State five years ago by the federal gov ernment has proven big success. There are now 49 County Demon strators in the State, and it is hop ed that another twelve-months will see one in each county.
 Heretofore the work in Arkan- sas has been directed by general agent for Arkansas and Louisiana at Shreveport. The work has grown so important in this State, however, that C. w. Watson of Mississippi has been assigned to the Arkansas territory, with head quarters at Little Rock, and all the county demonstrators and dis trict agents will report to him.
 The government has set apart for the use of Arkansas in 1912 the sum of $36,000 and will give each county $337.50, provided it pays an equal amount, which the last legislature authorized the Quorum Courts to do. In some counties much more than this is paid the demonstrators. Sebas- tian county pays $500 a year.
 Thousands of farms are being worked in the state on the princi- ples laid down by the federal de- partment of agriculture, and the results have appeared in the in- creased quantity and quality of the yield. The average per acre production of corn in the state has increased from Is bushels to 23 bushels since this work was start ed five years ago.

In bringing children into the world woman full fills her highest duty to nature; in looking carefully after their bodily health and promoting their physi- cal we'll being she discharges her highest duty to man, and in im- planting in their breasts a desire to live up to the highest ideals she fulflls the highest duty which God has given her. Therefore 1t is only the mothers of the race who are complete in the fullest sense of the word.

Secretary Fishers Emergence From
pinchotism.

Secretary Fisher has made highly
favorable impression on the people OF
Boise City. At a public meeting held
there he said that he means to do all in
his power to correct all of the inequali-
ties and injustices and wrongs suffered
by the people of the west as the result /
of bad thing in the law. or mistakes in
administration. He said the settler
should get early title to his land, |
whether on "a homestead or on a recla-
nation project. He said the govern
ment Should make good when settler
suffers on account of overflow or seep-
age water, and that protection should
be provided in the, contracts. He said
he is going to try to have. the law
changed so these injustice will not con-
tinue any longer. His. slogan is: 81
am for the man on the land" He
thinks that Withdrawals should be
checked over and the land should be re-
= stored to entry; Wherever found proper
as fast as possible. He stands for con-
structive development. -
Shown the map of Idaho, or what
little is left of 1t after Roosevelt and
,.Pinchot had duly conserved its area,
he said: 1T was an Illuminating pic
ture,vto be: sure. admit that when
the people first became aroused over
disclosures as to the things that were
happening, and when the public made
up its mind that -unregulated private
exploitation is wrong, absolutely wrong
the pendulum did swing too. far the
other way. l think maybe things were
frightened little too much.'
+ Commenting on Mr.. Fisher the Boise
Statesman, which at the time of incep
ton gave its entire support and sym
pathy to the Roosevelt Pinchot pro
gram, says: ''Those who remembers,
his attachment and admiration TO
Clifford Pinchot, and had counted min
among the ultra-radical school of visio
nary theorists and merciless idealist
that gathered at the feet of the for
mer forester of the United States

views, and where he might have com

he left it last night full of friends an
earnest supporters"
1T is entirely reasonable, to suppos,
aside from the statements and the fact

in the case, that Secretary Fisher is
developing practical and sound views
for the simple reason that he IS that
sort of man, having been worker
and an Garner all his life. He had to
make his own way, and has grappled
with the hard and big problems hand
to-hand, in a fashion that has caused
him to know some of the difficulties,
adversities and failures that must be
COPIED with as Incidents of the days
work. On the other hand, it is unrea-
sonable to suppose that Roosevelt and
Pinchot will ever develop practical and
sound views, for the simple reason that
they live off ready-made fortunes and
only have the most remote and vague
IDEAS of what productive labor is. They
understand, in a general sort of way,
that there is poverty, need, elfzdenial,
wearisonA. toll misfortune, calamity
and oppression throughout the: 'land,
lust as tie rest of us believe in p.lrga-
tory, the inferno, and all that. In each
instance Che terms are thought to be
symbolic and relative-labor and neces-
sity meaning about the same to Roose-
welt and Pinchot as hell and birthstone
mean to the rest of US. The land, the
natural resources and natures forces
and mans relation to- them are about

How Old is Your Horse?

There are four ways to tell the age
of horse, according to Prof. E. L.
Potter, of the Oregon Agricultural
College: by his teeth, by his ribs, by
the flesh on his tail, and by the skin or
his cheeks.
In young horse the cheek skin is
soft and elastic, and flies back quickly
when raised in an old one, it is life
less and goes back slowly.
Old horses apparently have wider
and more distinct space between their
ribs than young ones. And with age
the flesh on the tail of horse shrinks,
making the joints more distinct than
they are on a young horse.
Judging by the changes in the teeth
is a more acurate method. The coming
of the temporary teeth first and then
the permanent ones; the development
to maturity; the change in shape on
account of wear. the coming of the
cups in the teeth, and their wearing
away afterward; and the change in
the angle of meeting of the teeth,
from straight together at five years to
a sharp angle at twenty: all these are
signs by which the experienced horse
man can read accurately the age of a
horse.
1T must be remembered that the
permanent teeth, above and below,
come in at the same time" says Prof.
Potter, but that the cups do not wear
away until all the cups below are gone.
1t must also be remembered that the
changes begin at the center and con-
tinue at the rate of one pair a year
that horse at maturity, which is at
five years, has everything-that is, all
his permanent teeth and all the cups.
If one remembers this much, he has
the whole thing in a nut she'll"

'The best time to prune young
tree is in the month of August" " he
said. This period, | think, applies
generally through Oregon and Wash
ington. 1t is then that the wood be-
gins to harden and has less succuIent
growth. Summed up in a word, |
would say that if one has a cultivated
orchard and it is well developed, prune
early, but if your orchard is not prop
erly cultivated, prune later in the
Summer.
'There are three types of apple trees
common in the Northwest. They are
known as the high-headed trees. the
low-headed trees and the bush trees.
All are more or less extreme types.
The kind ! believe that is the best for
practical purposes is the half-open
base tree. The tree has a center limb
as a leader, SO that the tree is not so
open in the center and is not as likely
to be damaged by the winds. BY pro
ducing this kind of a tree scientific
pruning is followed.
1.-The great difficulty with orchards
generally is that they have never been
pruned properly. The orchardists are
learning more every year in regard to
this important feature of their work,
however, and believe that in the next
few years we will have much better
orchards in both states. "-Oregonan.
