Farmers ShoiId Attend Fa'rs.

want to urge the farmers anc citizens generally to attend theh county fairs, where they have not already been held. and especially to urge all who can to attend the State Fair at Hot Springs. do this for the reason that 1 regard t or great value to those who are en- gagged in agricultural pursuits or in- tefested in Agriculture.
 The farmers who can and will attend the State Fair will find the trip most profitable one. They will be able to see what is being produced in the different parts of the state, and learn more about the agricultural possibilities of the state in which they live in one week than they would by spending six months traveling about over the state.
 Another important thing is the live stock industry. The farmers of Arkansas want to awaken to the opportunities in stock raising. and a trip to the State Fair will afford a good education as to what can be done, and to some extent is being done in Arkansas with live stock. We have some live wires as stock men in Arkansas, and it will pay to see and learn what they are doing. It will give those who are interest ed in agriculture and the develop ment of the state a good idea of what IS going on, and will be a rev. cation to many.
 There is no question of the great value of attending the State Fair, and hope all who can will attend. As yourCommissioner.I I expect to be there throughout the week ard hope to meet as many of the farmers and stock growers as possible Let us get together and discuss how we can help the condition of the farm CT and advance the interest of Ark ansas generally,
 Between now and the next State Far intend to take steps to see if we cannot arrange to get free rail road fare for the farmers to and from the State Fair l believe 1t can be accomplished and shall do my best to bring it about. Let's all meet at the State Fair and pre- pare for better farming and better crops next year,
 JOHN Fl. PAGE,
 Commissioner of Agriculture.

0SLER AGE LIMIT
FOR U. S. JUDGES
MCReynOldS Bars Lawyers Over
Sixty For Federal Bench.

Washington.-No lawyer of more
than sixty years of age and no lawyers
with large corporation and railroad
connections need apply for appoint
ment on the federal bench.
This announcement was made by
Attorney General McReynolds, who re-
ceived delegations from Virginia and
Maryland in behalf Of lawyers of those
states now being urged for the va
cancy in the Fourth circuit court of
the United States, composed of the
states of North and South Carolina.
Virginia. Maryland and West Virginia.
BY this announcement Mr.. Mercy
nolds eliminates almost the entire field
of aspirants from Maryland and Vir-
ginia. The half dozen lawyers from
Virginia who are advanced for ju-
dicial honors are either more than
sixty years of age or have large corpo-
ration connections. The lone Mary
lander, E. c. Devecmon. was eliminat-
ed because he has had no previous ex-
perience on the bench and has had no
practice in admiralty courts.
The Virginia delegation was stunned
by the announcement. The men elm
mated include Charles v Meredith of
Richmond. who is sixty-two years old;
Lucien B. Cooke of Roanoke, who is
division counsel for the Norfolk and
Western railroad; Walter H. Taylor of
Norfolk. who is counsel for the late II.
H. Rogers Virginia railroad; w. Leigh
Williams of Norfolk. who is counsel
/ for the Atlantic Coast Line railroad.

/ School of the University of Virginia. is
/ the only aspirant now in the field from

nolds rule.
There are half dozen judgeship ap,
pointments which the president has to
make. Most of them are carried over
from the Taft administration and
were tied up in the senate filibuster
against all the civil appointments made
by Mr.. Taft after his election.
/ 1t is taken here that the rule laid
down by the attorney general applies
to all judiciary appointments that vii
come up during the coming four years
1t will apply equally to the United
States supreme court as to the distric
courts.
Just now there is a pressing demand
upon the president to appoint a chic

When Charles w. Morse, one time ice

and one time convict, stepped upon
the dock at New York recently he
caused a considerable shock to many
different persons. Certain physicians
and others had expected to see Mr..
Morse come back to New York in
tofin. not on his own feet, with head
erect and brisk step.
Thereby hangs the tale of how this
parsonage, doomed by the physicians
a year ago to die within twelvemonth
laughed at his doom and at his enc
mics. Morse was paroled from the
penitentiary Jan. 10, 1912. by President
Taft when the physicians asserted
that he would die in a short time if

NATION NEEDS MORE CATTLE.
Demand For Meat Shown by Big
Changes In Export Figures.

ShSHSSS III GSPOTA FiS6iS Ss
Washington. = The decrease in the
meat supply available for expectation
is illustrated sharply by the February
export figures, just compiled by the
statistical division of the bureau of
foreign and domestic commerce. They
show the number of cattle exported in
the eight months ended with last
month as 1866 head against 20, 219
head in the corresponding months Of
1907 and the quantity of fresh beef ex-
ported as 4,709,047 pounds against 175,-
SO6,649 pounds in the same months.
That this shortage in the expectations
is due in part at least to an actual re-
duction in the number of cattle in the
United States is evidenced by the fact
that the total number of cattle on
farms, according to figures of the de-
partment of agriculture, on Jan. ] last
was only 56,527 900 against 70, 534,O0
on Jan. 1. 1907
Still another evidence of the demand
in the United States for an increase in
its cattle supply is found in the figures
of the department of commerce, which
show an enormous increase in the i'm
portation of cattle, the number import
ed into the United States in the eight
months ended with last month being
$4,000 head against 12,513 head in the
corresponding months of 1907.
The table which follows shows for
the years 1907 and 1913 the number
and value of cattle on farms in the
United States, of those imported. OF
those exported and the quantity anC
