City Officials 0us,ed.

The Union Circuit Court met at Fl Dorado in an adjourned session last Thursday and took up the custer cases of the state of Arkan- sas against the mayor and mem bers of the city council of Fl Dora do. The present city officers were elected at an election held in April. 1911. and the state contended that the election was illegal be- cause it was held in the wrong year, the law requiring cities of the second class to hold elections in the even year and not the odd year.
 The defendants answered that the city of Fl Dorado was raised to city of the second class in May, 1908. after the regular municipal election, and that at the next an nual period for an election it elect ed it's officers and that two years thereafter. in 1911. it held another election, at which the present of ficers were elected.
 The court sustained a demurrer to the answer and rendered judg- ment, busting Mayor A. P. Nc Mahon and Aldermen T. M. Hank ins. Peace Reynolds and R. J. Elder. The other aldermen being hold-overs since 1908. are held to be entitled to their offices. The defendants will appeal to the Su preme Court.

Money in Making Hay.

A farmer came into our office the other day who is raising noth- ing but hay and hogs this year. He has 100 acres in hay from which he will get from 200 to 25C tons. an average of from 2 to 212 to the acre, and he is already sell ing part of the crop at $50 a ton. In other words. he is getting as much off his land as he would get for cotton, and his labor expense, he declares, is only one-fourth as much. Two college boys who are with him are all the help he has had except, of course, improved implements and machinery. l will put either one of the college boys against any two negroes Tn the country in getting work done, he declares.-The Progressive Farmer.

The Two TOilers.
Commissioner of Agriculture.

Two men pass my cottage door, on their way to do their work: one goes to a beeswax store. tother a sauerkraut clerk. One goes slouching on his way, sour of face and sad of eye: he will soldier all the day, count the hours as they drag by. So he journeys down the street, on his way to earn the mon. and he lifts his sluggish feet just as though they weighed a ton. Foil to him's a thing of tears, making him with anguish thob: when he's labored twenty years he will hold the same old job T'other man goes prancing by with a step that s bold and free; there is ardor in his eyes. and he whistles Nancy Lee. He goes gaily to his task, not in bitterpess and tears. and in for tunes smile he I'll bask as he travels down the years. For the gods adore the man who will work with might and main. and the shiftless pilgrims plan void of vir- tue is in vain.-W Walt Mason.

A Treat in Store.

The famous Georgia humorist, on Tuesday evening. December 5, at the Union church, under the auspices of the Library Associa- ton, will deliver one of his noted lectures. During the last two de- cades, Prof. Chas. Lane has deliv- cred upwards of 1900 lectures. It is quite probable that he is one of the best known humoriStS on the American platform. Those who fail to attend on this occasion will miss a great treat. He weaves seams of gold all through the de- posit, nuggets of heavy weight here and there. but he is pre-eminently a humorist. Grave theologians lose dignity and silence under his matchless power of bubbling humor. and soon logic and taught CT, unchecked prevails. His hu- nor is dead shot for blues and torpid flyers.

Phosphate Rock.

In Tennessee. Florida, South Carolina and Arkansas, deposits of phosphate rock have been mined for several years. More recently beds have been discovered in parts of Idaho, Wyoming and Utah. The government has reserved control of the latter. The conservation of the soil is thus recognized as National necessity.
 It is everywhere known that as people advance in intelligence they advance in agricultural methods. A knowledge of the needs of the soil and it's adaptation to certain products are basic principles. De- monstration Farms. Experiment Stations and Agricultural Schools are begun and maintained on this truth. It is trlte saying that all plants are living things and require food very much the same as animals do.
 What is said in Bulletin No. 40 issued by Lexington. Kentucky. University, applies to Arkansas: There are thousands of acres of soil in this state now unproduetive In nearly every case crops have been grown and removed from year to year, thus removing large quan- titles of plant food and destroying the humus. Soil can no more be drawn upon indefinitely without re- turning plant food and humus to the soil. than a bank account can be drawn upon indefinitely without making further deposits. /"
 The use of fertilizers has passed the experimental stage in the state and elsewhere. Under our laws, the farmer is protected against inn position. The manufacture must show his formula and a square deal is assured.
 We not only have deposits of ap- proved phosphate rock. but we have veins of iron pyrites, the source of sulphrric acid. At the Louisiana Purchase exposition, through the efforts of Prof. Pur- due, now state geologist, and the Arkansas Fertilizer Co.,, an exhibit of phosphate rock was made. A solid block, 4 feet wide. 8 feet long and more than 4 feet thick from the company's mines, attracted much attention.
 Ire farmers feed the world. The soil feeds the farmers. Ferti- lizers feed the soil.

London. Nov. 25.-That the motor

the coming of clean design" was the
sentiment burned into the minds Of
American and British engineers Wed
nesday at the international session OF
the American and British societies OF
automobile engineers, by Howard e.
Coffin, reputed the leader of American
engineering practice.
Mr.. Coffin said that "clean designs"

iron and steel-were an absolute GER

ing to the trend of the principles OF
engineering practice.
Mr.. COINS address was made at the
dinner given for the American Society

The American engineer expressed
the belief that this constantly increas-

for women to drive the gasoline car

The fact that this trend toward SIM

an enlarged field OF usefulness.
Mr.. CONN went on to say that in the
greatest car he himself had built he
had found upkeep cost decreased by
elimination of a thousand parts. He
said that the big item In motor oar

ination Of rods, and other features
that could be dispensed with. 1t was
possible to triple the quality Of parts
