The Way Samose Works Its Wonders

More than half the readers of The

flesh forming food, but 1t is only within

Marion Letcher as the United States
consul at. Chihuahua, together with
serious developments within Mexico
City, Americans here today are In fear
for their safety.
President Madero has issued an or
der forbidding Americans to bring any
more arms into the capital, saying that
he considers the arming Of foreigners
dangerous to Mexicans. OF the 1000
krag-Jorgenaen rifles shipped here, few
have been taken out by Americans
owing to the prohibitive price at which
they are held, and the great mass Of
foreigners are entirely unarned. They
charge that the Spanish papers here
are uniformly against them and through
published articles are endeavoring to
start fighting. Should the United States
have to take any action toward Mexico
the Americans believe there would be
an uprising against them, Talk of in
tervention has been revived and rumors
were spread that an invasion may be
expected April 15

1t must be understood that Pennsyl-

Colonel Roosevelt. A disaster in Penn

The one uncomfortable feature of the
Nebraska situation, as 1t Is viewed by
the Roosevelt people, Is the La roulette
candidacy. Senator La Toilette has
stumped the State. and his organization
is frankly out now to prevent Roosevelt
getting the delegation. The progress
sives are being split, but despite this
the State is confidently expected to give
Roosevelt a clear majority.

~.. Captured North Carolina.
That Roosevelt has captured North
Carolina, definitely and finally, was the
admission implied by an announcement
that came from Charlotte today. Most
Of the county conventions have beer
held. Today announcement comes OF
the last effort of the Taft people to
save something from the wreck. Theii
rlan is unique:
John NJ. Morehead State chairman
and Taft leader. declares that the State
pro-rated between Taft and Roosevelt
in the ratio of their strength in the
State es q. whole. On this basis. More
head says, Taft would get of the D

Debates Proposed Pacts

The Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee held a special meeting today
to consider the treaties providing for
loans to Honduras and Nicaragua
The committee discussed the treaties
at length, but took no action upon
them.
The Senate Democrats are opposed
to the treaties as a matter of party
politics. A number of Republicans
are also opposed to them and their
fate is very uncertain.

That Roosevelt will make winning

 AnotLer evidence of the impor- tance of Forrest city, as a business and commercial center. may be found i'll the facts that IL is the junction of two trunk lines of railroad-the Rock Island and the Iron Mountain and it's shipping facilities are unsurpassed Forrest City maintains and supports the largest telephone system of any town Of its size in the state, there being now in use in this city some thing like 800 telephones connected with the local board In addition to this the county is covered with d splendid system Of rural lines which brings tie county districts in close touch with the city. The postal revenues and receipts of Forrest City, which have increased at the rate of from 6 to To per cent annually for the past SIX or eight years, amounted to S10, poo for the fiscal year just closed, which entities this city to a Federal building as home for the postotfice. and there is a petition now before Congress asking that an appropria- tion be made for a Federal building here, which our citizens have every right to expect will be granted at the coming session of Congress in Decem- Der
 Forrest City has number of thriv- ing and prosperous manufacturing enterprises - the large sawmilling plant of the Forrest City Manufactur- ing Company, the Forrest City Box Company, the Forrest City Slave Company, two large ginning plants, each with capacity of 100 bales per day, the Forrest City Steam Laundry. Bottling Works, Ice X Coal Company, the Forrest City Compress Company, the Forrest City Cotton Oil Company, and many others.
 Forrest City needs other manu- featuring enterprises, such as brick manufacturing plant, furniture factory, a creamery, a canning fac tory and many other things that might be handsomely and protitably supported here. These are proposi- tion that The Times wants people to investigate.
 The soil adjacent 10 Forrest City seems to be especially adapted to the fine fiavoring of tomatoes. A can hing factory which operated here ] several years ago turned out pro- duct of canned tomatoes that were simply beyond compare in flavor and quality. and a score or more of car l load orders had to be turned down for want of capacity The product was-all readily sold in advance III the Texas markets, and jobbers rushed in repeat orders that we could not fill. The fruit and flavor was pronounced at that time to excell Coulter's cele brated brand, or any other brand on the market at that time. Farmers responded liberally 10 the demand for acreage, and sufficient fruit was fur nished to run the factory up to it's fullest capacity. Anyone interested in the canning industry will do no better than 10 investigate the con-

 Forrest City is surrounded by one of the most fertile sections of farming country i'll the state. It is the ceh- tral market through which from twenty-five to fifty thousand bales of cotton are sold annually

This county boasts variety of soils As We have mentioned before. along Crowley Ridge, high and healthful, where perhaps the best opportunities await the investor, the soi is adapted to fruit, truck. berries, Irish and sweet potatoes, and cotton and corn in the valleys and along the creek bot toms. This Ridge IS already becom ing dotted with orchards and the homes of successful farmers and hog raisers, but.w hen it is more fully de- yeloped and cultivated scientifically, il is destined to blossom like the rose and become the garden spot of East ern Arkansas. To mention few of the successful ones, who are always enough interested in their section 10 write about It, We name $. NJ. Blalock, Colt. Arkansas: J. w. Simmons & Son. WynDe, Arkansas: George W Kirby, Forrest City, Arkansas, and hundreds of others.
 To the east of Crowley Ridge lies the far-famed St. Francis Valley, rich in undeyeloped agricultural and timber resources. There is no finer scope of country in the world for the growth of cotton and corn than the St. Fran cis Valley, and, as consequence the lands in this valley are very much in demand. In fact, very little of the tillable land is for sale but many good things may be picked up by the in yestor in cut-oyer timber lands in this section Of the county, where large number of men have made fortunes within the past fifteen years specu- lating in timber and real estate
 To the west and southwest of For rest City and Crowley Ridge, lies the aristocratic farming section of St. Francis county. In the latter direc- tion the country is level and is as pretty as ''crow ever flew over.a It is ideal for stock raising, dairying and poultry: cotton and corn crops grow luxuriantly, and the land is also fine for any kind of hay and grain crops, and is the section where the farmers live in good homes and many Of them ride in automobiles. While to the west lies another rich stretch of coun- try, comprising the townships of Prai raie, Goodwin and Wheatley, where the vast area of prairie lands is mostly given over to rice culture, which, within the past five years. has deyel- oped the greatest progress, from an agricultural standpoint, of any other section of Eastern Arkansas. The land planted to rice in Wheatley and Goodwin townships this season will approximate something like 25,0O0 acres, and this crop will be handled by d s50,0 rice plant, located at the town of Wheatley, where it is esti- mated that 100000 bushels of rice will be milled for the market this season.
