RECENTLY there was meeting of the
cotton goods trade in New York at which
a substantial reduction of the duties on
cotton goods was called for by resolu.
tions. The preamble stated that the
duties were needlessIy high before the
present tariff was enacted; that the Payne
Aldrich law greatly increased them, and
that these high rates were not desired
b. either the wholesale or retail distribu-
tors. the garment manufacturers, or even
by the majority of the American cloth
manufacturers, but were secured by ques-
rouable methods by a few specially
favored interests" If this be true, the
cotton goods duties were manipulated in
favor of part of the trade, as the wool
duties were fixed for the benefit of the
manufacturers of worsteds and to the
disadvantage of the manufacturers of
carded wool

Life on the Farm.

A contented and intelligent rural popu-
lation is the true basis of permanent
agriculture. There are several conditions
essential to the best country life. The
success of the farm as business enter
prise is of prime importance. 1t must re-
turn an income sufficient to insure all Of
the necessities, most of the conveniences
and some Of the luxuries of life. The
community life of the agricultural popula-
ton must be such as will stimulate men
tai activity TO amply satisfy the social as
prations of the countryman and his
family. II l.. Russell

The State Of Chapas was more or less
unknown few years ago, and its re-
sources seldom received investigation on
account of the lack of transportation fa-
cilities and the remoteness of the State
from all business centers; but with the
advent of the Pan-American Railway out
slders are awakening to its natural ad-
vantages. The Pan-American Railway
has opened up one of the most fertile
parts of the State, running through re-
gion where rubber, coffee, grain, cattle

In most interesting and able address
before the Union League Club of Chicago
in advocacy of greater economy and
efficiency in the Government service
Charles d. Norton, late secretary to
President Taft, prefaced his argument by
the significant statement that George
Washingtons Administration conducted
the public business with only 1876 en-
poyes. The present number Of officers
and employees of the United States Gov
ernment, exclusive of enlisted men and
officers Of the army and navy, is All. .322.
In other words, while Washington man
aged to get along with one official to
every 1900 persons, there is now Gov
ernment employe for every 22o persons
in the population. The disparity in pay
is more striking than the difference in
numbers. On the score of efficiency the
advantage of the beginners" in the ex.
pertinent of free representative govern
ment as compared with the practical
hands" now in the service has been still
more amazing Philadelphia Record.

ARKANSAS FARMERS
 MORE CHEERFUL

With indications for more rain and reports showing there are no sections of the state now ab. solutely crying for additional moisture, the farmers of Araan- sas are a bit more cheerful than they were week ago when it seemed as if the entire crop was going up under the strong glare of the sun.
 Reports show the rains have been general, and the corn, which was rapidly reaching the stage where rain would do it no good, has taken on a new lease of life.
 The cotton was never in danger and the rains have come just in time to make it take on good, healthy growth.
 Supt. James A. Pitcock, of the Arkansas penitentiaEy, has re- turned from an inspection of the farm. He reports that a good rain fell at the farm this week, and the cotton is looking fine. He expects some of the seed which was planted, but did not come up on account of the drouth, to sprout now, and if there is a late fall, make good cotton.

NEW FEED LAW

Little Rock, June B. Though Arkansas has no Commissioner of Mines, Manufactures and Ag- riculture, on account of t h e death of Commissioner Phillips and the declination of Clay Sloan to take charge of the office until July 1, the money from feed manufactures has begun to reach that office in large quantities. So far, over $1, ,OO0 has been received and samples by the ton are being carted to the state house for fil- ing.
 The new feed law requires ei- ther manufacturer, broker or the m erchant who sells feed, to secure labels for it at the rate of 25 cents per ton, and samples of all brands of feed must be filed with the Com missioner. As soon as the new commission qualities, stamps will be sent to the manu- lecturers covering the amount sent in.
 It..is figured that the feed law will 'assisu the state treasury about $50,0O0 annually. This, with the fertilizer tax, will main tain this department.
 About SIP, ,O00 was paid in for fertilizer tags last season, and more is expected during h e coming season.

DIET FOR THE TUBERCULOSIS
Cannot Be Given, 10 Shown to Be
Erroneous.

Many traditions with regard to the
feeding Of tuberculosis patients and
with regard to food in general, are
given severe blows in a series of ar
ticles published in the October num-
ber of the Journal of Outdoor Life, the
official organ of the National Associ-
alton for the Study and Prevention Of
tuberculosis. DR.. John R. Murlin Of
New York, assistant professor Of
physiology at the Cornell university
medical college, holds in an article en-
titled "The Dynamic Principles of Nu-
triton" that a consumptive will gain
weight and do well on three pints of
whole milk, eight ounces Of cream,
five ounces of milk sugar, six eggs and
two slices of buttered toast as ra-
tfon for "a hours. The entire diet,
with the exception of the bread and
butter could be prepared in advance
and served for cost of about fifty
cents for the day. Miss Cecilia Flick
Of the Henry Phipps institute OF Phil
adelphia also offers some sample diets
which the ordinary family can prepare
for even less than fifty cents day.
DR.. David R. Lyman of Wallingford,
Conn, and DR.. Paul B. johnson of
Washington. D. c., both agree that
the ordinary person eats too much.
and that the old notions about stuffing
tuberculosis patient at all times and
seasons have been proven false. Dr.
Lyman holds that eggs are not nee.
essary article of the consumptive's
diet, and that tuberculosis patient
should eat anything that agrees with
him that is nourishing. He thinks
that tuberculosis patient should eat
only little more than person II
