 who had been suffering for the past several years with pelagra. She was taken to New Orleans early ir the winter for an operation, but upon consultation it was decided not to perform one and she has been back at her home in Strong for several months and was appar- ently getting along we'll until re- lapse Sunday shortly after dinner which resulted in her death.
 Minnie E. Wallace was the daughter of James Murphy. one of the most respected old settles of this country. and was AZ years Of age. She leaves to mourn her death besides the devoted husband six children as follows: Mrs. Jack Dykes of Columbia county; Mertie. Matte Lee, Mary Gordon. Pugh and Cora. She was faithful Christian character beloved by all her circle of acquaintances and devoute member of the Baptist church. The funeral was held from the family resident Tuesday afternoon, interment taking place at Spring Hill cemetery near Oak land La. the services were con- ducted by Rev. McGraw, of the Baptist church.

Arkansas Growing Fast.

Industrially. Arkansas has gone forward by leaps and bounds dur ing the past two decades. In 1880 the wealth of Arkansas amounted to $286.ooO. GOO; in 1909 sti.e wealth of the state was $1.1z3,- 100000. In 1886 the assessed valuation of real and personal prop erty was $154, ,4o6, ,625: in the latest report it is $5z8. 100000. In 886 there were 1z5.9 .956 chil- dren enrolled in the public schools; for the school year ending June 30. 1910, the enrolment was 5o5. 5.9z8. In 1888 we expended for public education $9O1.l9O. The public school expenditures for the last school year were S5. llO.- l64. In 1886 the value of manu- factured products was $6,OOO,- GOO; since then this figures has been increased ten-fold each year In 1880 we had less than 1000 miles of railroad; today we have 5000 miles. In 1880 the popula- tion of Arkansas was 8O2.5 .525. The last census gives Arkansas a  population of .5z4.445. In 1880 the individual bank deposits in Ar kansas amounted to $843,O1O; in 1909 the individual bank deposits were $23,z16.1oo.

State-Mide Prohibition Campaign.

Contrary to the opinion expressed in some quarters that the nomna- tion of Hon. Joe T. Robinson was a victory for the whiskey ring, it develops that many of his most ardent supporters are among the most earnest advocates of state wide prohibition. Hon. Jno. H. Hinemon of Morrall, who was one of his campaign managers, has written personal friend in Little Rock as follows:
 Certainly the report that the supporters of MT. Robinson will oppose statewide prohibition is news indeed to me. On the con-

trary, nearly all of his supporters, so far as know, will actively sup port this proposition. As you know. the movement to submit this question at the next general election did not meet my approval. l thought it better to try to pass statutory bill through the legisla ture.
 However, there is nothing left now but for us to fight for success in the general election with might and main. So far as am con- eerned shall avail myself of ev-. cry possible means of promoting this measure. My pen. my voice, my time and such of my means as 1 can spare will be gladly and eheerfully given the cause. earn estly hope that God will give me strength to canvass the entire state for the cause. If we fail before tte people, there is nothing to do but wait two years and try again. It is adle to talk about statutory legislation if we fall before the people.
 You may say that am at the service of those who are in charge of this movement. If we win in the general election, promise that Gov, Robinson will do his best to enforce the measure"
 The statewide campaign con- mittee is in correspondence with MT. Hinemon, and he will have some active and prominent con- nection with the work of initiating and electing the statewide bill.

Seed Bed for Cotton.

We hear much complaint each spring of poor stands of cotton. Frequently cotton fields have to be planted a second or third time and this entails the loss of much yalu- able time.
 4 Fully Z5 per cent of this trouble and loss of time is due to the trashy or cloddy condition of the seed bed Often the beds are so porus and become so dry from an excess of clods or unrotted veget- able matter that the seed will lie for weeks without sprouting unless rain comes. Even then the ger imitation is very imperfect.
 The remedy consists in prevent ing the clods or getting rid of them and of disposing in some way of the unrotted vegetable matter.
 To prevent clods as little break- ing as possible should be done at this time of the year. Many farm CTS bed their cotton lands during the winter and rebed in the spring. This results in a clody condition of the soil and if the weather turns off dry there is not moisture enough at planting time to sprout the seed Don't rebed. Let the old beds lie. Harrow them. Freshen them at planting time by running a cultivator ahead of the planter. If you must rebed start the harrow immediately to pulver- ize the clods.
 This year there is a great deal of cotton land that has not yet been broken. This should be bedded just as soon as the weather clears. Open a good deep center furrow and bed out on this. turning under deeply as much as possible of the surface vegetation and trash. Start the harrow as soon as the beds are made and pulverize the clods. At the same time you will drag out much of the unrotted vegetation near the surface. Do not rebed this land. Put in your time with the harrow. Cotton land that has been broken broadcast should have about the same treat ment as that recommended for un- broken land.
 We need to use the harrow more on farm lands in the spring instead of doing so much rebreaking, par ticularly in the case of stiff lands. The harrow treatment will give a much better seed bed and will make the handling of noxious veg citation later on much easier.

have high quality seed to plant Here is the way it is done.
 THE SEED CORN PATCH.
 Before you begin planting corn select small plot of good land for seed patch. Have this far enough from other corn to avoid mixing. Buy enough high quality seed corn to plant this patch. This plot need not be large. If you de- sire enough seed corn to plant twenty acres next year, one-half acre will be large enough to select from.
 Plant this patch carefully and cultivate we'll throughout the growing season. Before the pollen IS ripe and ready to fall from the tassels cut down or detassel all barren or defective stalks and next fall select enough fine ears from the best stalks, according to in- structons sent out by the United States Department of Agrilture, to plant next years crop. Write the Secretary of Agriculture, Washing ton, D. c.. for instructions on the field selection of seed corn.
 THE SEED COTTON PATCH.
 Select another small plot of good land for growing your planting seed of cotton. If you desire seed enough for thirty acres next year. two acres will be about right for the seed patch. Two acres ought to yield 30 bushels of seed and that quantity will be sufficient to plant the crop twice if necessary. As with corn buy first class seed for start. plant carefully and cul- tiyate well.
 In the fall select according to government instructions enough of the best stalks to furnish sufficient seed for planting next years patch Save the remainder of the seed from this patch to plant the main crop next year.
 } Make arrangements with the ginner to avoid mixing your fine seed with common seed. This can be done by running the stands clear of cotton before yours is started through.
 GET THE BEST SEED.
 Be sure you get first class seed for planting these patches. If you have neighbor who has fine seed buy from him. If not, purchase from a seed house that you know to be absolutely reliable.
 INEXPENSIVE WORK.
 The whole amount of this work will scarcely require more than three days of extra time or cost more than $4 or $5. Yet the re- sultant increase in yields will con- servatively add from $lOO to $l5O to the yearly income of the average small farmer. Seed se- lection sometimes looked upon as a little thing is really one of the biggest things on the farm.

Goodyear Motorcycle
Tires Make Good

Although 'No-Rim-Cut' tires have
placed the Goodyear Tire and Rubber
Company among the greatest tire pro-
ducers of the country" says s. A. Falor,
sales manager of the Goodyear COM
panys motorcycle tire department, the
fact cannot be overlooked that Good
year motorcycle tires are just as prom
inent in the motorcycle world"
Commenting on the recent meet OF
the Federation of American Motorcy-
clists, Mr. Falor said:
"Out of the twentythree champion
ship races twenty-five were won on
Goodyear blue streak tires, Constant,
the Brooklyn rider, winning the amateur
championship and the Bosch trophy;
Eddie Hasha, of Dallas, carried off the
ten-mile professional championship on
the same tires, covering the distance
In six minutes and forty seconds, and
Raymond Seymour, of Los Angeles, won
the five-mile professional championship
on Goodyear tires.
The same exhaustive experimental
work and the same corps of tire experts
that have been responsible for the high
degree of excellence and popularity OF
the 'No-Rim- Cut automobile tires are
also responsible for the lasting quality
and urability of blue streak motorcycle
tires. Ninety per cent of the races are
won on Goodyear tires, and 100 per cent
of motorcycle manufacturers use Good
year tires for equipment"

that Bruce-Brown, two-time winner OF

on the second day, when his car ran out
OF gasoleno. There has been great
deal of discussion since as to what the
outcome of the French race would have
been had not this unfortunate incident
occurred. For that reason the duel be-
tween Bruce-Brown and Boiilot will be
keenly watched at Milwaukee. There is
no getting away from the fact that
Boillot Is O great driver, as his victories
in Europe are numerous.

AUTOMOBILES ARE
NOT So INTRICATE
AS MANY THINK
Study of Working Parts Re-
veals to Owner Much
Simplicity

To one not familiar with its con-
struction. the automobile may seem a
complicated mechanism-a confusion of
| mechanical contrivances-but It Is sur
prislng how quickly both the compiled
tions and confusion will clear them
selves II the car owner will make a
study of his car.
The automobile, like every other piece
of mechanism that gives consistent serv-
ice, needs certain amount of atten-
tion, and the car owner will find it to
his advantage to watch certain adjust
ments and perform various minor du-
ties. Herewith are offered eight sug-
gestions which, II every owner will OBJ
serve with regularity, he will have an
automobile that is always ready to re-
spond to his call for service. The sug-
gestions follow:
First. See that the gasolene tank con-
tains a sufficient quantity of gasolene; |;
that there is plenty of oil in the crank
case: that the radiator is filled with
water and that the tires are properly
inflated.
second-Lift hood and screw down
grease cups; inspect the cooler con-
nections and the wiring to the mag
neto, coil and spark plugs; oil the
oil pump and fittings. --
Third-Screw down grease cups on
front springs and front axle; see that
the nuts on the spring bolts are tight;
give grease cup on steering gear
housing a turn.
Fourth-Remove floor boards and oil
the gear shifting mechanism; also the
clutch and brake mechanism.
Fifth-Screw down grease cups on
the rear springs and see that the
spring bolt nuts are tight. Inspect
the differential housing for loose nuts
or bolts: examine the brakes and
screw down grease cups over brake
shaft.
Sixth. Fill lamps il necessary In
spect body bolts and fender bolts; fill
all grease cups with good grade OF
medium weight grease; keep the
wheel rims free from mud and sharp
edges; clean the body and tenders
Seventh. Occasionally jack up car
und2r frame; pry the spring leaves
apart with a heavy screw driver and
iubricate between leaves with graph
ite mixed in OIL keep transmission
case and differential case two thirds
gravity grease.
Eighth. Occasionally drain oil from
crank case and then flush out crank
case by pouring gasolene or kerosene
through breather tube. Every ten
days or so put two or three table,
spoonfuls Of kerosene in each cylin-
der 20 cut carbon, and let stand over
night. If ever a foreign or unfamiliar
noise develops, satisfy yourself as to
what 1t is; negligence OF this kind
may result disastrously.

Demand for Non-Skid
Tires Increasing Rapidly

The demand among motorists for
pneumatic tires with non-skid treads Ia
greater at the present time than ever
before in the history of the tire making
industry. Perhaps one reason for this
Is that manufacturers, during the past
two years, have developed the non-skid
style of tread with marked success.
There is, however, a broader explana-
ton for the present popularity OF this
type Of tire. It pertains to other ad-
vantages besides protection against
skidding, which motorists have discov-
cred tires with raised treads possess.
Outlining these advantages and COM
menting on the popularity of non-skid
tires a prominent tire maker says
There are several reasons why mo-
torists prefer the non-skid style Of tire.
In the first place there Is the ever pres
ent protection against skidding. Fur
thermore. where the tread is raised, the
user gets much quicker and heavier
increasing the mileage rendered by the
tire. The manufacturer Is enabled to
place much moro rubber between the
tire carcass and the exposed surface of
the tread than can be successfully util-
lied in the ordinary smooth type of
casing.
with ordinary usage motorist
should get hundreds of miles of service
out of a non-skid tread before the tire
wears down to the regular tread sur
face.
Another advantage which motorists
claim for heavy non-skid treads Is that
they reduce the number of punctures,
throwing off sharp objects entirely or
picking them up in such way that
they do not penetrate the casing or
puncture the tube

Left Hand Drive In
The Ascendency

with the majority of 1918 cars on view
In the various salesrooms and a dis
crlmlnating public carefully examining
the merits OF each, the question OF
right or left-hand drive" is being dis
cussed in all parts of the country.
Many surprises were brought out in
this connection in the announcements
OF next seasons models. Not the least
among these is the number Of high
priced cars which have adopted the left
hand drive and center control features.
1t is an open secret that this change
was made by some manufacturers only
after repeated demand from purchasers
for cars having the drivers seat on the
left-hand side. Others foresaw the de-
mand and made the change with less
delay.
The main advantage of left-hand drive
and center control is generally sup
posed to be the adaptability of this con-
etruotion to American road conditions
j. q. Perrin, chief engineer OF a De-
troit motor company. says the mechani-
cal advantages are also important.
Left-stde drive with center control
enables the change-speed levers to be
mounted directly on the gear box, form
ing one unit" says Mr.. Perrin This
eliminates the usual right-side drive
troubles where two telescoping shafts
run from the gear box to the frame, on
the end of which the control levers are
mounted This construction requires
very careful fitting to avoid too much
rattle on the one hand or Cramping on
the change-speed lever on the other,
due to the fact that each connects two
different members of the chassis, name
ly, the frame and the gear box, and
these two units are not immovably con-
nected to each other.
Another advantage of left-side drive
is the ability of the driver to see around
street cars and slow moving vehicles
II is desired to pass. With left-side drive
the driver can see an approaching street
car or vehicle beyond the car he wishes
to pass before turning way out. With
rtght-side drive it would be necessary to
clear the car ahead before the driver
could see another car or vehicle an
preaching. This is especially important
in winter time, when in many parts
OF the city, after a heavy snow storm
the traffic is confined principally to the
two central car tracks The mirror used
for observing in the rear is of much
greater value to the driver on the left
side than when he has to see the mirror
from a considerable distance or from
the right-hand side OF the car"
