HOW TO CONTROL.

Although these pests are very difn-
cult To control there are certain prac
tices that will help greatly 10 check
ing them.
Destruction of old plants: AS soon
as the crop is gathered all vines. foli-
aye, and trash in the fields should be
plowed as deeply under the ground as
possible. This will prevent the moths
from emerging.
Early planting: As these worms
are more serious late 10 the summer.
early paintings and early maturing
varieties are less likely To be seriously
injured.
squash as a trap crop: Squash has
successfully been used as trap-crup
where melons or cucumbers are the
main crop Tie moths prefer t. lay
their eggs upon squashes rather than
the other plants. Rows Of summer
squashes should be planted 10 the Gu
cumber and melon fields as early as
possible, the rows being planted every
two weeks so there will be flowers
throughout the summer. The squash

Many interesting facts were brought out during the discussion. One local business man stated that the patronage with local packing houses at this time totalled about $28,000 year and this state- men created much intens st on the part of the visiting packers.
 Lee B. Veil said after the meeting that he thought Pine Bluff offered q fine field for a packing house. His father said that they had the money to build the packing plant here, but MT. Whitestone's plans were not per fected as yet and for that reason they could give him no immediate answer. They left early this morning for their homes.

WILL PLACE BLAME FOR AWFUL WRECK SEARCHING INVESTIGATION TO BE MADE TO .sSt BRITAIN
 WHO ERRED.
FOUR ARE KILLED
J. T. Harahan, Former President of Illinois Central, Among Them
 Flagman Says He Signaled.

Chicago, IIl., Jan. 22.-One of the most searching investigations in the history of railroading will be begun tomorrow at Champaign, H., to fix the responsibilities for the death of J. T. Harahan, former president of the Illinois Central Railroad Com pany; E. O. Melcher, second vice president of the Rock Island system; Edward B. Pierce, general solicitor for the same system, and Eldridge B. Wright, of Memphis, Tenn, all of whom were instantly killed early this morning in a railroad wreck at Kinmnndy, III.
 W. L. Park, vice president of the Illinois Central railroad. has invited corps of leading mean headed by Sherman Prouty, of the International Commerce Commission, to go to Champaign.
 There in public investigation it is proposed to fix beyond question the responsibility for the death of the four men and take steps to pre- vent similar accidents.
 Led by a1r. Prouty the others who will constitute the Investigating committee are Dean Goss, of the University of Illinois; G. L. Pittin- ger, capitalist and a representative of the Illinois Railroad and Ware house Commission.
 Every employe connected in any way with either train, the employees Of the Rock Island system at the scene of the wreck, the residents ot Kirmundy, will be closely interro- gated in on open inquiry, so that the public may have the facts in the case and any one having informa- tion to offer may have the oppor- tunity.
 Apparently the blame of the wreck lies between the engineer on the Panama Limited, which crashed into the New Orleans Flyer while at full speed, and the flagman, of the flyer, who was supposed to go back and flag the limited when his train stopped to water.
 Or. it may be that lack of facili- ties may be held responsible for from all accounts it appears that %bnro woo coarcitv 0f wator Silnn1v stations along the line in this vicin- ity.

PROMINENT BANKER SAYS GREAT THINGS ARE IN STORE FOR

BOOST REAL ESTATE
Real Estate Men Are Doing Their Part In the "Wide Awake" Prop0si.
 uOns Now Before Them.

J. E. Boyce, the we'll known bank CT and real estate man. i'll discussing the daily meetings and activity Of tho members of the Real Estate Exchange. yesterday, gave out an interesting in- terview regarding the possibilities of such an organization.
 The Willingness-aye zeal" said MT. Boyce, with which our people are responding to the demand for financial support from the Chamber of Com- merce, indicates that that institution will soon be in position sufficiently strong to accomplish much for our business and property interests. The Real Estate Exchange, working within the Chamber of Commerce as one of its constituent parts, is preparing t, do it's definite part in the campaign to bring desirable people here to help Us improve our lands and create in and through them greater wealth for our community. It is hoped that our peo- pie will realize and appreciate the good work that the memDer rs of thia body, which comprises practically all the real estate dealers of our city ara trying to do for them.

The necessity of provid- ing TOT other crops and methods or cuiture IS apparent to all The rais. ing of all kinds of live stock and tha building of packing plant to provide market for them are now two of the most important projects before us. The forming of fruit and truck growers association is the latest move and should it be carried to a successful conclusion would provide one of tho surest means of doubling the values Of our hill lands. A few years os intelligent effort along these lines would produce condition of affaics far ahead of the one-idea cotton crop In Louisiana the usaul boil weevil panic was had but they have worked out their salvation in the way of stock raising and diversified farming. and that state is now more prosperous than ever before and it's people could not be induced to go back to the old order of things.
 Tn bringing about a similar state of affairs here the Real Estate Exchange will be found in the van doing all 1l its power to people our lands with ! good warmers and create greater values for realty. It will do, perhaps, the greater Dart in assisting the Chamber of Commerce in working our packing plant and it's Packingtown, and securing the desirable factosy sites offered 1t by Mir. Burke. These projects both mean much for Pine Bluff and it is hoped they will have the cordial support of our people"

PACKING HOUSE PROPOSITION DISCUSSED AT MEETING IN
 C.,OF c. ROOMS.
PROJECT LOOKS GOOD
Ben Veil, of Evansville, Ind, and Lee B. Veil of Birmingham, Are
 Ready to Build.

A public meeting of local citizens, atte nded by some of the most promin- ent business men of the city, Mayor A. c. Jordan, County Judge c. M. Phil pot, Sheriff Edgar Brewster and oth- CTS, was held last night at the Cham her of Commerce rooms. The meeting was held for the purpose of hearing a report from Simon Whitestone, pro- moter of the packing house plant, who has returned from weeks trip over the state during which he interested farmers and stock growers in the live stock growers association which will be organized at a meeting to be held in this city March 13 and IA.
 Vice President Edgar Brewster pre- sided at the meeting which was also called to give the business men an op- portunity to meet Ben Veil, of Evans vile, Indiana. and his son, Lee B. W.a'l of Birmingham, Ala, who are submit ting proposition to install and op- 1rate 8 packing plant here.
 MT. Whitestone spoke at some length during which he told of the great en- couragement he had received on his recent trip. He also went into the de- tails of the packing house plant and predicted what 1t meant to Pine Bluff business men and the city generally.
 Ben Well, who said he was not a spea1)kr but plain stockman vr forty years experience, was called upon and spoke briefly, but to the point. He said for fifty years he has been iden- titled with the packing house business. Ten years ago he took hold of the Evansville Packing Company at Evans vile, Indiana, he said. and increased the business from $400,000 to nearly $2,000,000, changing 1t from a losing proposition to one which paid a hand some dividend.
 Wherever, we build," said MT. Well. Eve will have modern plant, one with government inspection, equipped with modern machinery to work up all offal and by-products. With the as- sistance and cooperation of farmers we can create market here and can SQ g fair price for live stock. We VIII have our own refrigerator car service and market our goods all over the country"
 Lee B. Veil responded to calls for talk, saying that he and his father came here at the solicitation of MT. Whftestpne, having severed their con- nection with the Evansville Packing Company on January 1. He siad the sppostton here looked good after in-
 etigA&Sn and that he and his father and brother, who Is also a packer would take the matter under consid- eraHion and either return here togeth- CT or let MT. Whitestone hear from them within the next ten days.
 Further discussion brought out the fact that the packers would erect a < plant here of sufficient capacity tn take care of all stock raised in th3s

while the Limited rushes through tine town at top speed
 The Limited and the Flyer were 10th late. The latter train is said to have been running more than an i.our behind time and stopped at Klnmundy to take water.
 A freight is declared to have stop ped at the tank just ahead of the Flyer, thus delaying the train to which was attached MT. Melchers private car, containing himself. Mir. Harahan, MT. Pierce, MT. Wright, Thomas Busbie, of Little Rock, an attorney for the railroad; Byron Curry, MT. Melcher's secretary, and two negro porters.
 The engine of the flyer, No. 25, was drawing water from the tank and the occupants of the train, with few exceptions, were asleep in their berths, when rushing along at the rate of 50 miles per hour, came the Panama Limited, known as No. 3.
 A brakeman on No. 25, Henry J. Broecker, declared today that he had run back along the track with lantern to signal the Limited. Ap- preaching the station at Knimundy is a straight stretch of track about 30 miles long.
 Broecker said today that he wav- ed his lantern receiving an answer ing whistle signal from the engineer of the Limited, acknowledging the signal, and that instead of slowing down the Limited plunged onward. A moment later there was terif- fic crash which could be heard for a mile in every direction. The night was very clear. There was little wind and residents of Kinmundy tumbled out of their beds, believing in many cases that there had been an earthquake.
 At the railroad station there was "a frightful scene. No. 25, the Ely CT, had been standing at the sta tion with all brakes set. The heavy train had been driven two hundred feet further down the track and thu | rear coach, Mr. Melcher's private car, was virtually mass of splint. CTS, up to the tenth seat from the forward end.
 Passengers on both trains were screaming, many had run out in their night clothes and were, trying to dress, standing in the snow to their ankles.
 The first body discovered was that of MT. Harahan, mutilated almost beyond description. Besides being driven through four wooden apart ments, his body was found under meath a steel beam, which had furth- CT crushed him.
 Quickly the bodies of the others were found and from the nature of their injuries it was apparent that death had come to each instantan- eously. They had been asleep in their berths, there was an awful crash and they died without know ing what had happened.
 Immediately following the acci- dent telegrams were sent to Central ia and the relief train bearing phy- sicians and nurses was dispatched to the scene. T. J. Foley. assistant general manager for the Illinois Central road, was at Central'a when the accident occurred.
 He hurried to Kinmundy on the special relief train and took charge of the bodies of the victims, later bringing those of MT. Harahan, MT. Melcher and MT. Pierce to Chicago, while the body of MT. Wright was sent to Memphis. They arrived in Chicago this afternoon. Funeral arrangements have not yet been con- pleted but that of MT. Melcher will take place Wednesday afternoon at his home in Winnetka.
