GROWING ONIONS.

A reader OF these notes makes in
quiry In regard TO the raising of onions
wants some pointers that will be of
some assistance to him In the patch he
plans TO grow the coming season. The
first thing needed for crop of onions
Is good rich soil. If the patch chosen
isn't naturally ~ ii should be enrich
ed with finely pulyerized manure. but
fven better than this is commercial
fertilizer consisting of tankage. 800
pounds: bOnemeal. $50 and muriate of
potash. 800 pounds.
This should be applied with drill
close to the seed rows The soil should
be made fine and compact by either
rolling or floating before the seed is
sown. The Seeder should be adjusted
so as to scatter about three and one
half pounds per acre. Some growers
use more seed and some less. but the
important point is to get good stand.
If too thick. the young onions can be
thinned ut the time of the first weed
ing II is quite important that the

should he as free as possible from
weed seeds On clean ground two
weddings should be sufficient. but cul-
tivation should he continued through
the growing season, and this holds es-
pecially true If rains are frequent and
the soil shows tendency to bake. In
selecting variety of onions to grow.
one should write to his nearest market
and find the variety that is usually
most in demand The writer is partial
to the red globe. but some other va
riety might sell better I'm another sec
ton. Only the best seed and from re-
liable seedsmen should be used, and
in the end this will be found by all
odds the cheapest 1t never pays to mon

onion seed. Many truckers make a
practice of giving a second application
of commercial fertilizer. and this is
done when the onions are about six
inches high. being scattered with
drill close to the rows. For an early
crop the seed is often sown thickly In

Also Has Critics

Little Rock, Sept. 13-That the Arkansas Tax Commission is not without it's severe critics appears from a statement that has just been issued by County Judge A. F. Smith of Scott Co.,, in which he says:
 That the State Tax Commis- sion and Equalization Board is a Cravesty on the Democratic form of government seems to be the conclusion of most men who have carefully investigat- ed the law, and 1 must say that 1 fully concur in that opinion. Any law that permits a man, or set of men to arbitrarily fix val ues on the peoples property and set aside the oaths of the citi- zens of a county or state is in line with autocratic or despotic form of government and not a Democracy"

Atty Gen. Renders Opinion
WEST SECOND ST.

Little Rock, Sept. 13.--In re- ply to a question propounded by the Auditor of State, Atty. Gen. Moose has called attention to the fact that under rulings of the courts, an assessor is enti- tied to one dollar and no more for assessing all lands of non- residents and unknown owners in each township in which there may be any lands of either non- residents or unknown owners. In other words, if there are twenty-five townships in a given county, the assessor would be entitled to one dollar for each township, or $25 for the whole county. ''This case has never been reversed" says Judge Moose, "and the decision there in rendered is the law at this time"

LOGGING PARTY DELAYED
Bad Roads and Broken Cars
 Delays Party at Texarkana

Delayed by bad roads, break downs, etc., the official logging party which is making the trip over the proposed Ocean-to- Ocean highway, will not arrive here this week. They were to have reached Prescott Friday but at this time it is not known when they will arrive here.
 They arrived in Texarkana late Thursday afternoon and left there yesterday morning accompanied by number of TeXarkana citizens in their au- tomobiles.
 The trip was made without special incident until the party was near Homan, when one of the cars of the logging party broke a spring and was put out of commission tenn porari l y. Shortly afterwards the remain ing car also suffered a broken spring and it too was laid out. One of the Texarkana cars had run a considerable distance ahead of the party, and miss ing the others, returned to see what trouble had arisen. They no sooner reached the two bro- ken down machines than, as if in perfect sympathy, tire blew out on the TeXarkana car and placed that machine in the class with the other two.
 The occupants of t h e ma chimes left the cars where they were and went on into Homan where the entire party took the train for TeXarkana where they will be laid out for a day or so until new springs can be put on their machines.
 The party is now two weeks behind it's schedule and t h e greater part of their trouble has been brought on since their ar rival in this part of the country. As quickly as the cars can be put into commission the party will continue on it's way and if the present rains continue they will have ample opportunity to put their machines to the best possible sort of tests for etfi- ciency in logging cross-contl- nent highways.
