M'COMBS TO BE
IN LITTLE ROCK

Little Rock, Jan. There will be
more politicians in Little Rock next
Friday than the organization of the
legislature demands, due to the arrival
in the city of William F. McCombs,
the recognized head of Democratic pa
t1onage. The former campaign man
aeer of President Woodrow Will
son will arrive in Little Rock Friday
morning from Hamburg, where he has
been visiting with relatives for the
past week. He will remain in the city
for the day and then depart for Wash
ington. The Arkansas political line
up is expected to be settled at this
time, for there are many who are
counting upon the support of Mr.. Nc
Combs, who could not expect assist
ance from the political forces in power
in the state.

FANS HOPES ARE
AGAIN BLICHTED

Little Rock, JAN There is little
chance for Little Rock to be in the
Southern League in 1913, according to
Ed Taylor, manager Of the Gay
league hotel Of Montgomery, Ala,
who is now in Little Rock. Mr.. Tay-
lor was for years a resident of Little
Rock, and he is now a strong advocate
of Montgomery. He says that Dick
TILES, the owner of the Montgomery
franchise, never gave the people of
that town a halfway chance to hold
the franchise, and even though he
went out of his way to sell to Little
Rock, that the Montgomery people
will hold on, and it will be impossible
for the franchise to get away. The
franchise was offered to Little Rock
for $4,000, but Taylor says the peo-
pie of Montgomery will pay double
that amount to keep the team in that
city. With such authentic statement
as this, Little Rock people have no
hope for league baseball this year.

New York, Jan. S.-Money is pour

volume that the clerks in the large
banks are working past their usual
hours to handle the golden deluge. At
the treasury offices the strain upon
employees is especially heavy, and men
are at their desk until late in the night

season, when large sums sent to the
interior in the fall for crop moving
are released and millions disbursed on

new YORK GUN man
SEEKS REFUGE IN ARK.

Little Rock, Jan. 7-One of the five
gun men implicated in the killing of
Rosenthal the gambler of New York,
arrived in Little Rock the last of the
week and called on several friendly
card men of the city and Argenta. The
fugitive left the city Sunday for Hot
Springs, where he expects to make his

men. was taken in Hot Springs some
months ago, and the police and city
officials there declared he could not
return, but this undesirable citizen did
not announce his intention of going to
Hot Springs until he was almost IN
that city, and even then he did not
give the name under which he would
live, or for which gambling house he
was under expectation Of serving.

Should the expected happen, and
Governor-elect Robinson go to the SEN

There has been some talk of an eff

Governor Donaghey will not discuss

WHO WILL Be
new SENATOR?
LOCAL SPECULATION RIFE
SEVERAL OF GOV. DONAGHEY'S
FRIENDS SUGGEST THAT HE
BE A CANDIDATE

Considerable speculation is rife as
to the filling of the vacancy caused by
the death of Senator Davis. His term
of office would not have expired until
March 4, 1913, and he had received
the endorsement of the last Democrat
ic primary election, which assured his
reelection by the coming Legislature
for another term of six years, ending
on March A, 1919. 1t is thought quite
probable that Governor Donaghey will
Immediately appoint some one to fill
out Senator Davis uneXpired term
ending on Marcn A, 1913. This will
leave Senator Davis successor for the
full term to be chosen by the coming
session of the legislature. 1t has been
suggested that the State Democratic
Central Committee will call a primary
election to select Senator Davis sue
cessor for the full term, and that the
action of the voters in the primary
will afterwards be endorsed by the
legislature in regular or special SEES
sion. Among those who are being
mentioned locally for the position are
Judge Joseph Hill of Fort Smith,
Judge w. F. Kirby of Little Rock, ex-
Congressman Stephen Brundidge of
Searcy, Governor-elect Joe T. Robin
son, ex-Congressman c. C. Reid and
Hal l.. Norwood, the retiring attor-
ney general. Some of Governor Don
aghey's friends have suggested that
he might be in the race for the term
beginning on March 4, 1913.

a progressive domino party at her
home on Prince street yesterday af-
ternoon, in honor Of Mrs. Leo
Schwarz of Little Rock. The hand
some home was gaily decorated in hol-
iday colors, red and green, and south
ern smilax, crimson carnations and
crimson poinsettas were effectively
used, making the interior beautiful
setting for the many handsomely
gowned guests gathered round the ia

PLAYED at nine tables which resulted
in Mrs. Frank E. Robins winning the
entire series. She was given first
prize, a beautiful cut-glass vase. Mrs.
r. H. Maddox cut the consolation,
hand-painted plate, and the honoree,
Mrs. Leo SchwarZ, was presented
with a hand-painted hat-pin holder.
Miss Irene Harrell the charming lit
tie daughter of the hostess, daintily
dressed in white, kept tally. A de-
licious luncheon was served IN two
courses, and the afternoon was most
delightfully."- spent in this hospltable
home. Mrs. Harrell was assisted IN

by Madams G. S. Brown, j. NJ. Lyon,

ADVICE AS TO
FERTILIZER NEEDS
COMMISSIONERS LETTER
KNOW THE KIND OF FERTILE
ER YOU NEED BEFORE
YOU BUY.

The three important constituents Of
a commercial fertilizer are nitrogen,
phosphate and potash. Each Of these
supply a different kind of organic mat
ter and often a combination will work
the best result. Oftentimes we have
to resort to green manures 1egumesl
OF to stable manures, or to deeper cul-
Itivation to restore fertility. Howev-
er, there are few land marks b.
which one may detect the lack Of any
particular element.
Generally speaking, crops grown on
soils poor in decaying vegetable mat
ter (humus) are, as rule, benefited
by application of heterogeneous ma
nures. A sandy soil is usually def
cient in all the essential plant food
constituents = nitrogen, phosphoric
acid and potash. When a plant looks
strong and vigorous, has good stalk
and foliage, it is well supplied with
nitrogen. For average and poor soils
nitrogen is necessary, applied either
through the form of legumes Of COM
mercial fertilizer. Black soils are gen
orally very productive, as you see in
our Well-drained black bottoms. 1t is
because they have plenty of organic
matter in the form of hunus
You will observe the need Of phos-

is good, but the date of maturity late,
and the fruit smaller than you would
expect, to judge from the stalk. Crops
grown on soils well supplied with de-
caying vegetable matter are benefited
by phosphates and potash. Upon
heavy soils phosphates are likely to be
more beneficial than nitrogen, while
the reverse is the case on light, dry
soil.
A clayey soil usually contains the
mineral elements phosphorus and
potash in abundance, particularly
potash. On the other hand, a soil very
rich in vegetable matter is frequently
deficient in mineral matter, while
limestone soil is likely to contain con-
siderable proportions of phosphoric
acid. Thin, dry, humus-hungry soils
need a phosphate, acid phosphate pre-
ferably. On the other hand, when the
same is we'll supplied with vegetable
matter, ground rock phosphate is as
good and much cheaper.
If you take piece of soil to plant
cotton and there is found to be a red
clay foundation, and cotton on this
paticular spot has not been given to
blight or rust, when planted in corn
the ears fill out fine and full; you may
know that that soil does not need pot
ash. Potash is a sort of blood purifier.
Almost all of our hill lands need pot
ash. All sandy soils are, as a rule, de-
fcient in potash, while clayey soils
contain potash in larger quantities.
Space will not permit description of
each soil and the fertilizer that soil
requires.
The important thing is, know some
thing at least about what your soil
needs before you invest in fertilizers.
Write DR.. C. F. Adams, Fayetteville,
Ark, or this department for formulas
for various crops. If you can spare
the money, have some good chemist to
analyze your soil, if not, write Prof.
Milton Whitney, Bureau Of Soils,
Washington, D. c., for his Bulletin on
"How to Tell What Your Soil Needs"

WHO Will SUCCEED
DEAD SENATOR?
THE QUESTION OF THE DAY
MANY COURSES OF PROCEDURE
ARE OUTLINED BY PREDICT
ING POLITICIANS.

Little Rock, Jan. 4.-While Little
Rock is paying homage to it's respect
ed dead, Senator Jeff Davis, the poll
tician is busy and by the time the fu-
neral is over Sunday afternoon, some
announcement may be expected as to
his successor Who this will be is the
object of much speculation in Little
Rock.
The first report was that Governor
Donaghey would resign and be ap-
pointed to the position by Acting Gov
ernor w. c. Rodgers, who would sue
coed him. AS the Office would permit
the holder to remain in Washington
only through the balance of the pres
ent session of congress, and the legis-
lature must elect a successor to take
office March a, it is hardly probable
that Governor Donaghey would take
this course. He is expected to ap-
point James H. Harrod, R. F. Milwee,
Judge Joseph NJ Hill or some one else
who would make effort to hold on for
only the brief remainder of Senator
Davis term.
From other sources it is intimated
that Governor-elect Joe T. Robinson
will be appointed to the position. 1t
is generally conceded that he can be
the next senator, selected by the gener-
! al assembly, if he says the word, and
it would be merely clearing the way
for a grand gubernatorial handicap if
he would accept the office now. Friends
of Governor Robinson insist, however,
that he was elected by the people of
Arkansas to perform certain duties as
governor of the state, and he would
not consent to accept promotion
without having first served one term
as governor. This would take him to
the point of opposing Senator James P
Clarke two years hence, making it a
three-cornered race with Governor
| Donaghey.
For several weeks it has been rumor-
ed that Senator Clarke would resign to
accept place in the cabinet of Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson, and in this
event the legislature has been counted
upon to select Governor-elect Robinson
as his successor. This would make a
vacancy in the office of governor and
| co,,orol oopI; 1otoc bayo announced in
case such condition arose. The death
of Senator Davis brought forth anoth-
er complication, and should Senator
Clarke accept place in the cabinet,
there will be two vacancies to be filled.
| is natural that Governor elect Robin
son, if he considers only his own polit-
zeal future, would prefer the appoint
ment to fill the unexpired term of Sen
ator Davis, and to hold his new term
which begins in March, for he would
thus have six years to serve. If he
was appointed to succeed Senator
Clarke, in case the senior senator
takes a place in the cabinet, he would
have but two years to serve and then
be forced to compete for reelection
with Governor Donaghey.
Because the friends of Governor
elect Robinson desire to see him in
the office for several years at least,
shifts the probable selection of a
United States senator to fill the term
to which jeff Davis was recently
