LITTLE ROCK WANTS
THE STATE FAIR
Will Make Vigorous Campaign. Pu-
laski County Fair Plans to Take
Over State Fair.

Little Rock, Dec. 20 The people
of Little Rock are preparing to go af-
ter the State Fair in definite way.
Patriotic business men of Hot Springs
have kept it up for several years, but
the prospective sale of Oaklawn is
bringing about condition which may
mean the removal of the Fair from
Hot Springs. 1t has long been real
lied that Little Rock is the logical
location for the State Fair. The sue
cess that has crowned the work of the
Pulaski County Fair Association for
several years is proving an incentive
to attempt the greater undertaking.
The Association is working on a plan
to spend $4,000 on the fair in 1914,
and in 1915 to take over the State
Fair. Judge E. R. Ratterree has
agreed to donate tract of land for
the purpose if the Legislature will
make appropriation for its mainten-
ance,

WBERRY GROWERS
RECEIVE MORE THAN $500, 900
An Average of More Than $4,000
per Day. $4,000 Paid
to Pickers

Little Rock, Dec. 29.-J. A. Bauer,
one of the leading strawberry growers
of the Judsona district, in Little
Rock on business the other day, esti-
mates that there was paid to growers
during the last season through the
local marketing association, more
than 100000, or an average of about
$4,000 day. During that time there
was paid to the pickers about $4,000
which amount was distributed among
men, women and children. One man
was known to make $40 between sun
rise and sunset, at two cents box.
There are about 500 growers in the
district, and about 5000 acres of ber-
ries. The industry was started in a
commercial way in 1880 and has done
for the people of Judsonia what the
gold mines did for California, and the
oil fields for Oklahoma.

Just kill, sell or separate all the roost-
ers from the hens and keep them sep
arate. Do you know what an infertile
egg is? 1t is an egg laid by a hen
that has been kept away from the
roosters an egg that will not hatch.
We all know that among the first sett-
ings we find eggs that will not hatch.
If you examine closely many of them
are infertile. They will neither hatch
nor spoil during the setting period.
You can keep them six weeks and they
are still good You can set them un-
der the hen for thirty days and they
will still be as good as for cooking
as fresh laid egg. Try it once and
you will be convinced. | have tried
it. SO if you can produce eggs that
will not spoil, you can produce eggs
that you can guarantee. If you can
guarantee your eggs you ought to get
the highest market price. The rea-
son the price to the producer is so
low is because everybody who handles
eggs has to stand the loss on bad eggs
that spoil in the handling. Eggs are
now retailing in Little Rock at from
35c. to 40c. a dozen. You know the
price at your end of the line The
cost of transportation will not exceed
two cents dozen The hotels, the
soda water stands and Iunch rooms
are always in the market for guaran-
teed eggs. Get into the game and
make some easy money on infertile
eggs Kill all the roosters and buy
eggs for Matching purposes. The hens
will lay as well without the roosters
as with them. If you need any help
to find market drop a line. | will
help you.

LITTLE ROCKS FINANCES
IN GOOD CONDITION
May Lose $4,000 Saloon License But
Adjustment of Finances
Will be Made

Little Rock, Dec. 29.-With the
prospect of loss of about $80,O00 a
year in revenue derived from saloon
licenses, Little Rock finances are in
an excellent condition. In September
1911, the city was compelled to bor-
row $4,000 to meet the September
subsequent pay-rolls. In October,
1912, it was necessary to borrow $32,-
900. In 1913, however, the city was
able to get along until Dec. Is, when
it had to borrow $4,000 for thirty
days. Before that is due, however,
other licenses will be collected which
will repay that amount and carry the
expenses until money is derived from
general taxation, which will be con-
siderable more this year because Of
the increased assessment. The license
code is undergoing a radical revision
and this, with some contemplated ec-
onomies, will enable the city to get
along until there is an adjustment of
finances to meet the loss of the sa-
loon revenue. 1t is estimated that
there will be $4,000 collected in Ii
cense in January.

THE HEN, THE ROOSTER.
AND THE INFERTILE EGG
Weekly Letter of John III. Page, Com
missioner of Agriculture

Last week | wrote about poultry,
but there is so much to say about
poultry that is useful and of interest
that a dozen letters would not exhaust
the subject. Three things in the poul-
try line | want to mention. The hen
first She lays the eggs and cackles,
Those are considerable characteristics
of the hen. She first produces the
goods and then begins to advertise,
and keeps it up until she attracts at
tention. Some business men could
profit by the precept of the hen. The
hen should have first consideration,
for upon her rests the responsibility
of hte whole industry. She should be
pproerly fed, properly housed, and
kept healthy. Give her plenty of
grain, plenty of green stuff, and some
charcoal and oyster shells. Don't over
look the water. Plenty of clean wat
er is necessary. In freezing weather
watch the watering vessels. Some

kINGSLEI'S SUCCESSOR
WILL BE NAMED
DURING THIS WEEK

+ ttle Rock, Dec. 29.-Some time
during the coming week, State High
way Commissioner Dye will announce
the appointment of state highway
engineer to succeed L. A. Kingsley,
who resigned Saturday on account of
the press of personal business. In
resigning, Mr.. Kingsley expressed the
highest appreciation for the Highway
Commissioners, and said 81 trust
that the good work which has been
started may steadily increase and that
the highway Department may con
tlnue to grow and make itself felt" :"

times the chickens fail to get water
for several days on account of ice.
A warm house, with southern open
ings and enough ventilation and plen-
ty of light should be made. Provide
good nests with plenty of straw. Ar
range the dropping board so it will
empty out side. Keep the hen house
clean. Whitewash the inside and fill
the cracks with crude oil. If you find
hen that is not laying enough to
pay her way, fatten and eat her. If
you are in the poultry business for
profit do not keep a hen that will not
lay $50 eggs year.
Next consider the rooster. For
breeding purposes get the rooster
from other flocks, so you can cross
them. Do not raise them. Get pure
bred roosters, that score high. Pay
a good price and get them. When it
comes to breeding, a good pure bred
male bird is worth half the flock.
When it comes to raising chickens, it
pays to caponize the roosters. 1t
makes them gentle-mannered, genteel,
and quiet. They fatten fast and grow
large, and when cooked are exceeding
ly tender. For these reasons they
bring from $500 to $500 a dozen.
The caponized roosters are not fight
ers. They are even doubtful about
their own sex and will take a brood
of chickens and raise them 1t is a
simple operation to captonize Any
poultry supply house will sell you the
instruments and give you full instruc-
tions how to use them.
Next is the infertile egg. Nobody
likes a bad egg, not even when in
human form. The only place where
you can find a market for a bad egg
is on a skunk farm. Eggs Of doubt
full quality sometimes find a market
for manufacturing purposes at nom
inai price, but not enough to pay the
producer for transportation SO ther
the thing to do is to ship good eggs
Bad eggs come from good eggs. Age
continued warmth and shaking about
makes bad eggs of good eggs These
facts, well known as they are, are
responsible for the farmers getting
so little for the eggs they sell The
way to get around this is to produce
eggs that will stay good-eggs that
you can guarantee. Now is the time
to begin. The way, is to produce
nothing but infertile eggs. You can
do it without loss, expense or trouble
