Smith had been ordered early il

Smith had been ordered early in the week. Congressman Otis T. Wingo of DeQueen, Aykan- sas, has been quietly at work for several months investigat- ing charges against Postmaster Smiths manner of handling the Van Buren postoffice. After considerable effort Postmaster General Burleson finally called for the resignation. The order was made public today, although it is understood the action of the postmaster general was talk en early in the week.
 Judge Harry c. Pernot un- doubtedly will be named to suc- ceed Postmaster Smith, although it is rumored that an influential member of President Wilson's cabinet is making an effort to have a relative of his appoint ed. Congressman Wingo, how ever, is insisting upon the ap- pointment of Judge Pernot. In statement issued today, MT. Wingo said: Judge Pernot will be postmaster at Van Bu- ren by January l."
 He refused to comment upon the removal of Postmaster Smith in no way ref1ecting upor the character refiecting upon the character of the present postmaster. The Van Buren postmastership pays $2,10.

Postmaster Is Removed.

Washington, D. C., Dec. G. Postmaster General Burleson has ordered the removal of Postmaster John l.. Smith at Van Buren, Arkansas. The grounds for removal are failure to keep the postoffice in proper sanitary condition, lack of dis cipline in the office and a lack of intelligent attention to the in- terests of the office.

Foot Ball Yesterday

A foot ball game between the second teams of Clarendon was played on the local grounds yes terday.
 The Clarendon boys evidently forgot that it was to be the sec- ond team game as it is claimed they 'rung in" several of their big men and thus out weighed the Brinkley boys. The score was "A to 12 in favor of Claren- don.
 The Clarendon strong men" were Webber Benton and Pete Graham while Brinkley had Harry Hurst and Gustavius Ellege.
 The feature play of the game was 69 yard dash by Elmer Ma bry.

HAY CAPS FOR ALFALFA.

Alfalfa should be raked and either put in the barn or if it is not sufficient ly dry, put into hay cocks. It is mat ter. of economy to have two or three hundred hay caps (made of six-cent cloth one yard sQuare) to use in case of bad weather. You may think this Is considerable bother. but poor al falfa is poor stuff. and when we re- member that good alfalfa brings us In actual results nearly as great returns as wheat bran, we can better realize the importance of taking care of It. If any of us had 500 hay cocks of bran" in the field, we would take care of them, but with alfalfa we think of it as just hay"
 These cloths may have wooden pegs or some sort of weights attached to each corner to hold them in place; the pegs can be pushed into the hay to hold the corners fast. Hay caps will soon pay for themselves in finer quality of hay guaranteed by their uS0

This experiment was conducted al the Kansas Agricultural college:
 The pigs shown in the accompanying chart were litter mates. The larger pig was fed on ration of corn and alfalfa hay; the smaller on corn alone
 Several filters of weanling pigs were equally divided into two lots. The pigs were carefully chosen as to weight and thriftiness. SO that each lot represented a fair average of the total number of pigs used in the experi ment.

very thing that the pigs did not get when fed upon corn alone.
 Corn is deficient in protein and has an abundance of starch and sugar. Neither alfalfa nor corn when fed alone will give the best results, but a combination of the two make per fectly balanced ration.
 A balanced ration is a combination of feeds containing elements necessary for the proper physical development of the animal. Protein, the most essen tial element in animal feed, builds the frame of the body while corn is essen tially valuable for the production of fat
 The bones of the 'corn-alfalfa' lot of pigs were double the size of the lot fed on corn alone and stood breaking strain of 1870 pounds as against 520 pounds for the lot fed on single ra- ton of corn.

RUsE TO CATCH DESERTERS
Pawnbrokers, In League With Military
Authorities, Bring DIssster on
Many Cuiprits.

To prove a man a deserter from the
army is often a difficult task, for if a
policeman were to take action before
be was sure of his man. and the man
afterwards proved to be an ordinary
citizen, there would be trouble in
store for that policeman. As a con.
sequence of this the ruses which are
sometimes adopted to catch deserters
are often very ingeGious.
When a soldier deserts from the
army he naturally seeks work of some
kind, and with this object in view he
scans the advertisements in the pa.
pers. This fact is well-known to the
authorities. and hundreds of deserters
have been caught by the following
trick:
An advertisement is inserted in the
newspapers by some pawnbroker who
Is In league with the police. The ad.
vertisement states that generous
terms are offered for the purchase of
military uniforms or boots. These are
generally the only articles of military
attire which deserter retains and he
