Opinions as o 'the ACCESSIBILITY of
voting license for this city differ as
much as it is possible for people to
differ, but from what we hear in our
wanderiugs about town all seem to
be agreed that 1t is a close question
this year.
Ed Coulson, who went from Erwin

The Lake Preston Times reports
that word comes from Mr.. and Mrs
Harry Brown, who went to California
last winter with the intention OF

come their return.

Local sports have arranged for
what will probably be One of the best
wrestling matches ever pulled off in
this state. The event is to take place
Tuesday evening, April 18th, at Floto
Hall. The parties are Otto Suter,
champion welterweight, of Cleveland,
Ohio, and Anton Peterson, of Ruthton,
Mimi, a middleweight wrestler. 1t
is to be a finish match, best two out
of three. Suter stayed with Miller,
the worlds campion of that class, for
three hours and ten minutes in a
match at St. Paul. If you are inter
ested in the sport, you will find this
to be the big event of the season.
The local patrons of the game are
very enthusiastic over the prospect.
The amendment of the exemption
laws by the recent legislature is an
other act to be placed to It's credit.
As against a debt for the ~necessaries
of life there are now no more eXemp
tons than a be claimed against
a doctors bill, as we understand it
The exemptions are practically moth
ing. This is as it should be. Here
tofore a certain class, comprising only
a few, we are glad to say, contracted
Indebtedness for food, clothing. and
fuel, and then would fail 10 pay for
the same, taking refuge behind the
exemptions law which would prevent
taking any part of their small prop
erty through process of law. 1t will
be easier to collect such accounts in
the future.

action of the market to be due to the
fact that the Iastday for the liquidation
of the May option is only two weeks
off. IL can be called a natural e
ton after the big decline. The
actual situation is weaker than a week
ago. The government report issued
Monday estimates the condition of
winter wheat at 1873 per cent. a con
dition below the average, but owing
to increased acreage a cropof 100000
600 bushels is predicted. But since
April LIST conditions have improved
and the estimate for May LIST will
probably be increased several millions
The only thing we can see that is
liable to strengthen the price of
spring wheat is the fact that it is in
demand for mixing with winter wheat
for milling purposes, which may help
to hold the price up until the new
spring wheat crop.

FOOD INSPECTOR
 VISITS PRESCOTT

A. w.. Parke, state feed inspec- tor, was in this city yesterday and made the rounds of the vari- ous stores to inspect the feed stuff offered for sale. He found some of this class of merchandise which was not properly tagged as specified by the law dealing with such products and its sale was prohibited until the statute was complied with.
 The law requires all crushed, rolled, cracked or ground feed sold in Arkansas to have brand ed upon the sack or a tag attach ed to the sack, statement show ing the weight of the contents, the name of the products, by what concern it is manufactured and when, then give a chemical analysis showing carbohydrate protein, fat and fiber. and end with the ingredient nts. In t h e case of pure bran, shorts and middlings, no other tag is re- quired, but all mixed feed must have in addition to this tag, a state inspection stamp. Corn chops, cotton seed meal, chick en feeds and all sorts of mixed bran and horse feeds come un- der the head of mixed feed. The state tax stamp they bear de- frays the cost of having the in- spection made, and the residue at the end of the biennial period | is turned into the school funds of the state.

This forces the man higher up to obey the law, though it must be said to his credit, few have attempted to violate the law.

RIC PECAN CROP
 FOR THIS YEAR

Wharton, Texas, Nov. 6.-The pecan crop in this section is ps,ooubat more extensive than that of last year andDthe nuts are hoino received in large quanti' t;os Several carloadsshipments have been made and it is esti- ,otod that between 25 and 30 carloads will be shipp ed from tbis city this fall. The oceans this year are not as large as usu- ol hut the quality is good. Buy DTS are taking all offerings at urices ranging from $3.50 to A25.
 There has been an increased demand for the Texas pecan in the Eastern markets and more attention is being given in this vicinity each year to the produc- tion of the nut. Many of t h e growers here are planning to in troduce the variety of pecan pro- duced at Coleman, Texas, and which was awarded first prize at the National Nut Growers meet ing held last month at Mobile, Ia

PUBLIC SCHOOLS
 ORDERED CLOSED

At joint meeting of the board of health and the school board this morning it was decided that in order to prevent the spread of diphtheria and to better handle the situation in general, it would be best to close the grammar and primary departments of the schools of this city. Therefore, the pupils of these departments were dismissed shortly before noon today and notified that school would not be in session before Nov. P.
 This action was taken after much deliberation and investiga- tion by the board of health. Eight cases have been reported to date and the board has decided that the only satisfactory way to deal with the situation is to prohibit all gatherings where children usually participate and establish a rigid quarantine wherever cases of the disease are found to exist. Sunday schools a n d church services will be ordered abandoned and firm measures will be taken to stamp out the disease.
 Dr. Rice, president of t h board of health, states that that body desires the cooperation of the citizens of Prescott in main taining a strict quarantine and aid in preventing the spread of contagion by keeping t h ei r children at home. The coopera tion of all parents will be neces- sary in controlling the situation.
 The city council held special session this afternoon to take steps in the matter of maintain ing a strict quarantine. It is expected that special officers will be employed, whose duty it will be to enforce the regulations which may be decided upon as necessary by the board of health.

WILL ORGANIZE
 NOVEMBER P

A meeting of those interested in the cultivation of strawberries for market will be held Wednes- day Nov. 22 to complete the or ganization of an association and to make the final arrangements for securing plants and making other preparations looking to the planting of a large acreage of these berries.
 Great interest has been shown in the plans to make Prescott a market center for this crop. Large profits are obtainable in berry raising and this locality is well situated to produce h S fruit at the proper time for as- surfing the best prices at t h e northern markets. A large acre. age has already been pledged, but the greater the quantity pro- duced, tue larger the number of buyers will be and consequently the market will be better.
 Those interested in this sub ject .are invited to attend the meeting Nov. P.
