PEN Is MAKING
MONEY FOR STATE
THE APPRAISERS REPORT
STATE FARM WILL SHOW NET
PROFIT OF $4,000 FOR YEAR
JUST CLOSED.

Little Rock, Nov. 30-Although no
department of the state was founded
with the intention of making money
the penitentiary is rapidly increas-
ing revenue producer for the state, as
shown by the report of f. Dalton of
PoCahontas and w. S. Atkins of Hope,
the appraisers who have just complet-
ed the work of appraising the peniten-
tiary property. They placed the ag-
gregate values at $682,802.71, which
is an increase of 100000 over the ap-
praisement Of two years ago.
The appraisers value the state farm
1856 acres-at $4,000, and the
penitentiary site at 100000. The
state electric plant is valued at $685.
900 and the states mules at $40, ,425.
The state farm was purchased about
10 years ago for $4,000, and inter-
est amounting to about $4,000 was
paid in addition to this.
The crop on the farm this year will
IGz1CU dUOuL Y1OO,OOU, ShC Ad1 III
will show a net profit of about $4,000
for the year. The state has sold
about $50 bales of cotton and about
1,1O0 have been ginned to date. 1t is
expected that the crop will reach at
least 1900 bales of long staple cot
ton, which is the estimate of Capt. J.
A. Pitcock. Other state officials place
the estimate higher, and Secretary of
State Hodges has wagered hat with
the penitentiary official that the crop
will reach at least 1880 bales.
In addition to the cotton, the state
has made over $4,000 bushels of corn
this year, besides a large quantity of
peas. The state has lost upon only
one thing planted, and that is short
staple cotton, which has been found
to mature no earlier and produce no
better than the long staple variety.
Only about so acres was planted in
the short staple cotton, as an expert
ment.

INSTRUCTIONS TO FEED MEN.

Little Rock, Nov 30.--Commission-
er of Agriculture John H. Page is to-
day sending out to the manufacturers
of feed who are disposing Of their
product, or portion of their product,
in Arkansas, some very pointed in
structions as to how their products
must be labeled if they are to be sold
in the state
The last legislature passed an act
which requires the manufacturer to
show all the ingredients of the feed
offered for sale. This was for the

REED AND HIS TEACHER.

Ex-Speaker Reeds boyhood was
not particularly eventful. He was
tall and slender, and had not the
chubby face of his late years Of pros
perity and power. He was indepen-
dent in his ways and decidedly out
spoken-a trait which he inherited
from his mother. He often got a
birching from his teacher, for, in
spite Of being a good student, he was
mischievous.
"If any one knows of any reason
why these apples should not touch
the lips of Tom Reed, let him speak
now, or forever hold his peace" said
the young rascal one day, right I'M
der the masters nose.
And he gave a bite at one Of the
great red checked apples in his
hand.
Quick as a flash out came the
birch and the teacher said:
eff anyone knows any reason why
the rod should not warm the jacket
of Tom Reed, let him speak now, OF
forever after hold his peace"

He did not get the whipping.

colors of the Fiftieth regiment of

Of rifles, cavalry carbines, saddles,
swords and cartridges to swell the
Turkish war supplies. The hills and
hollows of the desert, usually so
lonely, are alive with men and horses
and dotted everywhere with tents.
There are tents Of every size and
hue and shape; the green rot-proof
canvas Of the headquarters staff, the
white bell tents Of the soldiers, the
low black hair-cloth booths Of the
Arab irregulars and the rough sack
ing and flour bag shelters hastily set
up for women and children and
camp followers.
and in this city Of canvas
houses, or, rather, in these groups
of canvas hamlets, are men Of every
race in the Levant. There is no uni
formity of type even among the Off
GERS, for the Turkish empire com
many races, and in the same
mess tent you may see a Cretan cap
tain chatting with a lieutenant from
the Bulgarian frontier, an Albanian
rendering his cigarette case to a
Yemen Arab. But among the rank
and file of the Turkish soldiery the
racial types are beyildering in their
variety.

so, the foreign ships Immediately combined. This
occurred about five years ago. As soon as the
combination perfected it raised freight rates
over 400 per cent 1t Immediately increased the
rate ON ton Of wheat sent from Seattle to
Liverpool from 81 % to $3.50 This rate was
afterwards increased to $500 per ton, and no
vessel in the combine permitted to take
freight for less than this amount and several
ships last summer left Seattle in ballast rather
than carry freight for less than $500 per ton,
although before the combine was formed they
were willing to do it for 1925
eve have had some experience with foreign
ships in carrying coal for the government from
the Atlantic to the Pacific coast. When foreign
ships first employed we had few American
ships Then the foreign ship carried the coal
for 1926 per ton The American ship disap-
peared and the foreign ships charge 1925
per ton These two illustrations clearly demons
trate what would occur if we were to admit for
eign ships to the coastwise trade. Once our flag
had disappeared and shpyards were de-
strOyed we would be compelled to pay these
foreign ships far higher rate than we now pay
our own ships. On the contrary, after the Pan
anna Canal is opened and larger number of
coastwise vessels engage in this trade. freight
will be greatly reduced until will carry our
own commerce in our own ships as eheaply as it
can be done in foreign ships. The history of
American shipping the Great Lakes demon
strates the truth of this conclusion If the amend
ment proposed by the gentleman from Tenneccee
CHR Sms) should be adopted there would not
be single shipyard left on the Pacific coast
within twelve months It's adoption would mean
the complete disappearance of our flag from ships
not only upon the high seas, but also in our
coastwise trade 1t would mean that our ship
yards would become desolate places, and that not
only commercially would we be at the mercy of
foreign nations, but would be helpless in time
of war. If for other reason should pre-
can vessels as a matter of common defense. If
foreign ships are to be admitted to TIE coastwise
trade then it would be far better for the Pacific
coast and for the entire country if the Panama
Canal had never been constructed
Congress will not admit foreign ships to
coastwise traffic The vote since taken in the
House seems to settle that. But the House has
allowed sentiment in an election year to cause il
to exclude steamers owned by railroads, and this
means that our trade will not receive the i'm
petus it should from the opening OF the canal
