AT PRESIDENTS REQUEST HE WILL GIVE FACTS ON POST
 PONING MANN ACT CASE.
HIS REMOVAL IS DEMANDED
Matter-Expected They Will Be Refused Because Incompatible
 With the Public Interest.

Washington, June 25.-At the re- quest of President Wilson, Attorney General McReynolds will make a com plete report on the circumstances which led him to direct a postpone ment of the trials of Drew Caminett, son of the federal commissioner of immigration, and Maury Diggs, who Mann act.
 From reliable sources it was learned that an effort is being made by the department of justice 10 get out from under the issue by a plea that there is insufficient evidence to prove the charge
 When the officials were asked about this alleged attempt of the de- partment, the reply was that the case did not come exactly under the Mann law They agreed, however, that the case of Jack" Johnson, the prize fighter, who was convicted recently by a federal jury of violating the Mann act, was almost a parallel" One official put up the plea that there was a difference in the class of the people concerned.
 Demands Superor's Removal.
 Another development in the case, which caused the resignation of United States Attorney John l.. Me Nab of San Francisco and his charges against McReynolds, was the receipt by the president of telegram from Clayton Harrington, special agent of the department of justice, in charge of the federal bureau of investigation at San Francisco. demanding the re- moval from office of Attorney-General McReynolds, Herrington's official su' perior.
 The department of justice was in ignorance of the special agents pro- test until it was called to the atteD- tion of the attorney-general.
 The Republican organization in the house promptly took hand in the muddle in an attempt to put the Will son administration "in the hole" by means of what they term full hedged pOltlcal scandal
 Calls for Papers in Case.
 Representative Kahn of California introduced a resolution calling upon the department of justice to lay be- fore the house all the papers and cor respondence in the case.
 Representative Hinebaugh, the Hi nois Progressive. asked that the ju- dietary committee be ordered to make a searching investigation into the en- tire case, including the facts which led up to the indictment.
 It was believed that the adminis- tration might refuse to give to con gross the papers in the case. t is more than likely that the president or attorney-general will reply to the Kahn resolution with the statement that 'it is incompatible with the pub lie interest to send the papers to con- gress."

up the old Jeff Davis forces for their candidate, who was always one of the leading Davis men in South Arkansas. They are en- deavoring to draw the same lines that were drawn between Brun. didge and Senator Davis in their last campaign, and at the same time split the balance of the poli ticans as they were divided in the Brundidge- Robinson race for the United States Senate before the last legislature. They are under taking to declare the Brun didge campaign Donaghey one, from the fact that R. F. Milwee has always been allied with the Donaghey forces.
 Senator J. P. Clarke has an. nounced he will keep hands off in this race, and former Gov. Dona- ghey emphatically states he is out of state politics for the time being, and will not espouse the cause of anyone in the guberna- torial race. It is probable that Col. Brundidge vii come out with statement in a few days, declaring hi n elf not a candi- date for the United States Sen ate to succeed Senator J. P. Clarke, and that he will be satis- fled with the office of Governor for four years,
 The State Committee will pay no attention to the district and county contests for offices in which vacancies have recently occurred, that being entirely up to the county committees, which must make provisions for getting the names on the tickets, and supplying judges and clerks.

WEEKLY LETTER OF
 JOHN H. PAGE

Tn the heart of every man there Is more or less prejudice against anyone who undertakes to sug gest a better plan than the offe he IS already using. No man will thank you for telling him that you know his business better than he. These facts have their -truest expression in the relation which now exists between the so called book farmer and the farm. CT himself, Every farmer who ln truth is farmer, feels keenly the attempts of the scientific farmer to show him better re- suits, which is human nature and would be true in any business. In any particular case which may arise the human nature po- sition will prevail, unless there has been a concrete example of the practicability of the other side of the issue.
 That Is just the question; there has been a concrete example of the practicability of almost every great principle of scientific agri- culture in every community in the State of Arkansas, no matter how small. Every farmer in our State has seen it proved that TO tation of crops pays; that live. stock pays; that leguminous fer tilizers pay; that commercial fer tllizers pay; and that scientific care of the orchard pays; that cotton is not the only money crop that can be grown in Arkansas; that seed selection pays; that shallow cultivation and lots of it pays, and that a hundred other comparatively new ideas that sense in them after all. Th e truth of which, nearly every farmer or anyone else, would have been slow to admit until shown, simply because the great majority of these ideas sprang from the experiment station wor k and demonstration work and were given to the farmer by the so called book farmer"
 The time has now come in Ark ansas when good judgement de- mands that we throw aside our little prejudices and don the spirs it of co operation with all those who are being paid to transmit a little of the truths learned by ex. pertinent and especially to agree when we have so many concrete examples of good practical scien. titic farming in every communi- ty. Prejudice is the worst ene- my to progress on the farm. When a truth is shown, good judgement demands that we ac- cept it or abide by the results. The book farmer" is the farm CTS best friend.
 In this office we have books on nearly every farm subject, and the results of thousands of ex- periments, the majority of which have been proven to be sensible by our own farmers in Arkan sas. There are very few farm CTS who are able to buy text books or have time to keep up with the experiment work. We are here for your service, and we have the experiences of thou sands of others in every phase of farm life, which are yours for the asking Let us hear from you.
 John H. Page,
 Commissioner.

When You Buy Nuts.

IF you have plenty of time and there is
some one in your household who knows
how to crack nuts so that the meats are
not crushed and broken, but emerge from
the shells whole and sound. then IL Is
economy to buy nuts in the shells
If you do not know how to crack nuts
nicely. and If none of your family does,
then it Is economy to buy them shelled-
economy both of time and labor. They
can be bought shelled in two ways-ln
glass jars and in pasteboard boxes. OF
course, thoses in the glass jars can be
seen before they are purchased. AT the
end of the nut season these are the
safest sort to buy, although they are
the most expensive.
But at the beginning of the season
and this Is the beginning OF the season
all nuts are likely to be fresh and good.
Those in packages that are not trans
parent are safe IL they are this years
nuts
The relative cost OF all nuts, shelled
and unshelled, is about the same. Here
is the actual cost of pecans in different
forms: With the shells on. 10 cents a
pound; In q pasteboard box, without
shells, 40 cents for half a pound; in o
glass jar, 81 cents for half QRpnd.

Interesting Methods

American Holiday.

ut is almost necessary to have certain
vegetables on Thanksgiving at the
home dinner French artichokes
and asparagus tips may be all very
well, even at a Thanksgiving feast.

the old-fashioned home holiday feast
demands squash and onions and other
homely vegetables.
Modern taste does not relish a success
sion Of boiled onions. boiled squash,
boiled carrots. boiled sweet and white
potatoes. boiled turnips and boiled
parsrips. SO the ingenious cook must
devise ways of presenting the homely
winter vegetables in new ways.
A good way to prepare carrots is to
choose them OF rich. red color. Wash
and scrape them and cut them in slices
Put the slices through a chopping
machine, screwed to coarse" Then boil
the carrots until they are tender. but
not mashed, drain them and put them in
a double boiler with melted butter, pep
per, salt and a little very finely minced
parsley.
Turnips cannot be turned into very
dainty dish. The best way to cook them
is to boil them in slightly sailed water

neat, even dice and serve them with a
little cream sauce. They should not be
smothered in heavy sauce, but
moistened and covered with a rather thin
sauce, we'll seasoned.
Another way to serve both carrots and
turnips is to wash and scrape them, and
cut them In balls with a vegetable SCOOP
Then boil them separately in slightly
boiling water. and when they are tender
drain them CarGfUlly. Put them tO2ctler

IL made Of velvet, lined with satin, and
interiined with some heavy fabric to
make 1t more bulky. Sometimes it is
made Of soft suede, lined with silk.
It is made in every color imaginable, so
that it can be found ready-made to go
with any suit. It also can be worn to
advantage with separate skirt that is
worn with a coat of velvet or fur Of a
different color. In this case it would be
better to get the belt of the color Of the
coat.
This belt reaches we'll below the waist.
and sometimes reaches well above it,
too. It is pointed in front, sometimes in
two points and sometimes in one. Some
times, too, it points decidedly up in the
front Sometimes there are points in
back, but generally the back line is
straight.
The belt illustrated is made of black
velvet piped with deep blue, and but
toned with big blue velvet button. 1t
is worn with a blue satin skirt and a
blue chiffon blouse, trimmed with skunk
at the neck and wrists.
There was a time when, If the winter
street suit was too thin for comfort,
women would pile on heavy wooden I'M
derwear. These days Of steam heat make
wooden underwear almost impossible.
There was another time when a flannel
waist would have been looked on as the
logical solution of the thin winter suit.
That day, too. is gone. The diaphanous
waist is established in its place. Today
it Is necessary to pile more outside
clothes to make up for the lacking inner
clothes If the suit, with furs, is still too
thin, a little under jacket Of some sort
can be worn.
The waistcoat fills the need for some
thing to make the neck warm If the suit
coat opens wide at the throat. Waist
coats that button snugly from the waist
to the neck can be bought in velvet and
heavy silk we'll lined These can be
worn to keep the chest and throat warm
At the same time they enhance the looks
Of the suit with which they are worn.
The heavy muff1ers or flannel waists of
our grandmothers would raise havoc with
the looks Of a modern suit.
Some Of the waistcoats are made like
mems waistcoats, with little jacket that
| fits loosely in back as well as In front.
Some are simply in the form of two
fronts, that are pasted into the coat Inc

cotton flannel, with the furry side toward

used Any of the big patterns companies

There are many lovely materials that
may be chosen for waistcoats, and yet
there are many awful mistakes made in
choosing suitable materials. The figured
and brocaded velvets are all good, but
they must be carefully selected with a

they are to be used. Duvetyn is a good
choice, for It Is warm. pliable and comes

If you would whip cream easily and

put it into fruit jar-the sort that has

the top down firmly and then begin to
shake the Jar, holding il firmly in both
