ARKANSAS WILL

Washington. Aug. 12. R. D. Duncan. vice president and cash fer of the State National Bank of Little Rock left for home Monday night after he and the Arkansas delegation in Congress had con ferred with Secretary McAdoo would not stipulate what amount would be loaned to the Arkansas banks, but let it be known that all the money to be used for nov ing the crops in Arkansas will not be deposited in this State. Mir. McAdoo gave as his reason for doing this the fact that many of the country banks do not tran sact business and have their cor respondent banks in St. Louis. Kansas City, Memphis and New Orleans. As a result some of the money will go to the banks in these States.
 The Arkansas delegation ask ed for $l. .0OO, ,00O, and although Mir. McAdoo did not commit him. self he said that at least $500, 900 would be depoisited in the Little Rock banks. He also said that the money would only be deposit ed in banks which are national banks. holding government se- curities to cover the amount of the loans.
 Mir. Duncan said that he was pleased with the idea of the gov ernment advancing h e money and that he thought a fair dis tribution would be made. He expects to arrive in Little Rock Wednesday.

Parcel Post Stamps Eliminated

That the parcel post system has
proved a success and becomes of the
established order of things, seems
the conclusion from a postoffice or
der which went into effect July LIST.
No parcel post stamps are now nee
ssarv to distinguish the use of the
system, and the sender may use or
binary stamps for his parcel and be
saved considerable inconvenience.
Another new order which went into
effect was the c. 0. D. service, and
the article may now be paid for at
the receiving end of the line.
The stamp order reads as follows:
Order No. TAI: On and after
July |. 1918, ordinary postage
stamps shall be valid for postage and
for insurance and COLLECTION delivery
fees e..fcGreaclass -wais, gid dis

ART OF THE JAPANESE.
The Charm Of Their Paintings ls Ir
Their Bold, Free Hand Strokes.

The Charm of Their Paintings Is In
Their Bold, Free Hand Strokes.
To outline briefly the peculiar
methods of the Japanese artist, he
uses neither oils, canvas, cardboard
nor Whatman paper, but employs
instead painting silk or absorbent
paper, with ink applied with a well
watered brush, with or without 9TH
er colors. There is a fixed sequence
in the strokes of his painted objects,
with an established order in which
these objects are introduced into the
composition.
The artist rarely outlines. He
prefers to paint without defining
boundaries. This charming manner
is known as bokketsu. He paints
upon the mating floor seated on his
heels. He makes no tentative
strokes. He knows in advance what
is needed and paints from a well
stored and trained memory. He
never retouches. A stroke once
made can neither be recalled nor
concealed. He paints with the great
est freedom of the arm, with the
brush held perpendicularly and with
a stroke vigor '1ike the movements
of a dragon" and he invests each
stroke with a sentiment correspond
ing to the very nature of the thing
painted. Nor must he hesitate or
delay in the act, else the psyche
logical moment would be gone.
He never sketches casts or living
models, and Buddhist influence has
always prohibited the nude in art.
In painting robes or other garments
there are eighteen different ways of
executing the lines thereof. In
sketching from nature he interprets
it not photographically, but aesthet-
ically, and omits unessential details.
He paints no shadows nor c~onceals
in chiaro oscuro anything he paints.
Finally he seeks for repose or free
dom from all care as the ideal condi-
ton under which to pursue his art.
MOI can it be insisted upon too
strongly that the chief charm of a
japanese painting lies in the in
spired strength and character of the
brush stroke, which conveys a deep
if unsyllabled sentiment, not only
corresponding with the emotions Of
the artist when producing the work,
but also enabling us to see with his
eyes and feel with his soul. Through
the magic of such stroke is repro
duced the very nature of the thing

The States Future

OF course there will be SOME wheat
on these prairies for years,
but the Press expects to see the time
arrive when wheat will be a minor
crop, and South Dakota will become
a sure-enough mixed farming and
stock growing commonwealth, like
all states east and south of US have
become. with corn as the leading
crop. And it IS a pleasure to state
that Hand County is one of the first
to see it and begin working towards
the desired end.
This county's per caDita resources
in cattle. sheep. hogs, poultry, dairy
ing, brings her close to the top of all
South Dakota counties. Also every
year is increasing her acreage of
corn and feed crops.
With the above conditions assured
the Press would add just one more
point to the ultimate progress and
prosperity of Hand county, namely:
Never break another acre sod on anv
farm, until the ground of that farm
already under cultivation has been
re-broken II to l6 inches deep.

cron Conditions

The entire northwest has been dry
and hot. Papers from many parts
of South Dakota, Minnesota, Wis
cousin, Nebraska. Michigan and Can
ada, report dry weather and retard-
ed crops. In fact, the month OF
June was very charry of moisture,
except in spots favored with local
showers. Under such conditions 1t
is only natural that crop prospects
of May have deteriorated con.
siderably as regards wheat. Corn
is reported in good condition. And
localities attracting the most atten'
ton and adverse comemment are the
localities where wheat is grown to
any considerable extent.
The reason for this is that wheat
is the gamblers product. In wheat
centers the gamblers thrill, either
buying or selling. owe every rumor
or slight indication of a condition af-
fecting the growing crop. It's their
bushes. and they make the most OF
it.
In many localities newspapers and
agricultr raj experts r plainly and
forcibly calling attention to the I'M
certainty of wheat growing. They
advise the growing of feed stuff,
particularly corn and alfalfa, all
kinds of stock dairying, poultry, etc,
and to get away from the wheat as
rapidly as possible.
This, of course, is but a repetition
OF the experience of all older local
tiles. Ask any old citizen, or read
the history of any older locality, ano
it is readily learned that the com,
munity made very little, if any
progress, until the people cut out
wheat. This experience seems al
most universal.

Hot Wave

Friday and Saturday we're the re-
cord days of this summer for heat
and dlsagreeable weather. Tier
mometers overlapped the hundred
mark by a couple of degrees, and a
strong south wind added to the gen
eral discomfort. bringing clouds of
dust into every open door and wind

properly describes it thus: 1T sim

Locally it was the end of a hot,
dry spell, IS several showers came
Sunday and brought relief-also a
demonstration of what nature can do
when she lays herself out to make
everybody sit up and take notice.
Sunday afternoon and evening were
as ideal as any one could wish, with
a drop of % to 80 degrees.
The water guage established on
the First National Bank building,
which catches the rainfall and carries
it in tubes to the bank room below,
showed over half an inch of moisture
for Sunday afternoon.
