 ciation Visits Forrest City.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
 Forrest City.-All doubt which might have existed heretofore with reference to the route of the National Highway Associations read through Arkansas has been settled Col Dell M. Potter, president of the Southern National Highway Association, visited Forrest .City and delivered an address before q good roads meeting held in his honor at the St. Francis County court house. He said that the association of which he was at the head and had the honor to represent, was succeeding most satisfactorily in binding the states through which the natios7l highway would run together in sleHdid or ganization for the building of this road and that some of the state had already made substantial and liberal provisions for the construction of that. road and that he had been assured by. those i'll touch with the grand move nent that the people of Arkansas would not prove tardy in the matter of: raising funds for the completion of tEis road through this state.
 Great enthusiasm was manifested at this meeting and work on the road between Forrest City and Memphis, most important link in this highway through Arkansas, is already in prog ress.
 While in this city President Potter said that the route through Forrest City had been definitely agreed uko1 as the accepted part of the road gnd that. although he had been engaked in the work for number of years hs lad never had the good fortune tosfall into the hands of q more earnest and jealous band of good roaders anywhere than he had met in Forrest City.

The health commissioner of New York city asserts that many manufac- turers of pies and other pastry are using benzoate of soda more freely than is good for the human stomach: For this reason he proposes to pro mitigate regulations that will force the restaurateurs and others who sell these viands to display placards or print line in the bill of fare that will convey notification of the pres ence of the chemical preservatiye to the ultimate consumer.

ARKANSAS WILL
 HAVE B|G CROPS
CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT STATE REPORTED GOOD IN SPITE OF
 BACKWARD BEGINNING.
WAS BIG YEAR FOR BERRIES
Increase in Acreage of Corn, Cats and Other Feed stuffs-Grass Crop
 on Big Increase.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock.--From all indications Arkansas will have one of the best crop years of it's history.
 General crop conditions are regard. ed as much better now than at this time last year. The condition of cot ton is about S6 per cent, whereas a year ago it was 75 per cent. The acreage is slightly increased, especial. ly ln southern Arkansas. The boil weevil is not causing much worry this year.
 There is a material increase in the acreage of corn, oats and other feed crops. Wheat is normal, and the con dition of all others is good. The grass crops throughout the state are in ex- csilent condition, and there is a de cided increase in the acreage of al falfa.
 This has been Arkansas greatest year for berry crops. The yield of strawberries shows about 20 per cent increase over that of last year, and prices have been good. Apples and peaches have not been damaged ma tefsaliy. The reported damage done by frost now is said to have helped tae fruit. The yield will be little less in same sections, but the quality of the fruit will be bettered, and the total yield in the state will exceed tf'ae of last year. Farmers in Benton and Washington counties, the two ap- rle counties of the state, are optimis- tic.

 square in what it says about fitness for preferment, and that none but the. fit need apply or be applied for. $
 Some Leaders Are caustlc.
 Occasionally the Democrats of au-' thority and place who seek office for others get a trifle caustic in their comments on the administration afs titude toward them and their friends. They say It may be only an accident. but that most of the men already ap- pointed to offices are original Wil- son men. It remains, however, for the critics of the presidents course to. point out more than one or possibly two original Wilson men who have been given preferment and who have not been able to qualify under the ability clause of MT Wilson's private pronouncement.
 The Democrats say that with spring crowding hard on the heels of sum mer all the big offices should be held by Democrats. but that as things are now the Democratic administration is doing it's work hemmed fn and in part regulated by hoid-over Republican off seials. The Democrats do not like It.. but their resentment is not likely to- take on an aggressiyely severe form.

How Appenuell Stitch is Made.

The Appenzell stitch is really just
laying sation stitch in the opposite d.
rection from that usually employed
when doing this work The stitches
are laid from the base of the petel or
leaf to the tip.
The padding is laid from side to
side in the way that finished satin
stitch is worked then the outer COW
ering is laid from stem to tip. A diff
ferent appearance from the original
satin stitch is thus produced, which is
quite effective for some flower forms.
This method of working Is often
seen in the French embroideries, but
is now used to carry out the larger
patterns. The name is taken from a
little town in Switzerland. where this
method of embroidering large flower
forms was first used.-Cleveland Plain
