The commissioners of Road lm- provement District Nos. 4 and 5, through which it is planned to give Fine Bluff twenty-twO mile high way to connect with the permanent highways to be built from Little Rock and a 2O-mile highway from Pine Bluff to Tamo, to connect with the pike roads that are to be built through Lincoln and Desha counties are to meet soon and let the con- tract for the work. The commission CTS have already received bids and are now Investigating the material that has been submitted by the var ious manufacturers.
 The board of commissioners of the two districts should by all means gel a permanent pavement for the pro posed highways. It has been prover in this city and county that macadan roads, while serviceable for a few years, ats not durable and. that th, up-keep son them after the first tw' or three years, is costly and is reall. d waste Of money on the part o property owners along the road where it is used.

If the residents of South Main street and West Fifth avenue, as well as the property owners along the Pine Bluff and Cornersville road south of Pine Bluff, and the Sulphur Springs road to the southwest bad in- stalled permanent street paving and road material they would have saved thousands and thousands of dollars. Main street was graveled few years ago and it was soon ground into dust, until it became unbearable as well as impossible. The same condition ap- piled to the old Fifth avenue pave ment, where the gravel road cost thousands of dollars and was soon worn away. But the residents of these two important thoroughfares profited by their costly experience and have in recent months laid per- manent pavements, streets that will last for mate years. The macadam roads south of Pine Bluff and to Sul- phur Springs, although in use only a few years, are already showing the effects of traffic and it will be neces- sary within the next few months to expead large sums of money on them for repairs.
 It always pays to buy something good and even if the property owners along the proposed highways find it necessary to expend a larger sum than originally planned, it Will be a saving in the end to buy the best ma terial and make their roads perna- nent. Good road material-the kind that ought to be used on the Little Rock and Tamo pikes-will last for a quarter of century. .,J

CONs[DER PLANS TO
 FIGHT BOIL WEEVIL
Arkansans Tn Congressional Delega. tion That Confers With Sec. :.
 Houston. 5.

Washington, July 2o.-SenalOF HOO- inson. accompanied by Congressmen Taylor, Wingo and Goodwin, whose districts are largely infested with cotton boil weevils. attended con- terence with Secretary of Agriculture Houston and a number of senators and representatives from the cotton growing states today.
 The conference was called to con- slider the best means of checking the further ravages of the weevil.
 It appears that the weevil entered Texas, probably from Mexico, about 1892. During the IS years that have elapsed notwithstanding the7govern- ment has expended several hundred thousand dollars in investigation to discover some means of destroying 1t, this pest has steadily, advanced. In 1893 it was confined to small terri tory in southeastern Texas. In 1903 two-thirds of Texas had been covered and small portion of western Lou isiana. In 1911 the boil weevil had extended to practically three-fourths of the entire cotton growing area, embracing Texas, Louisiana, Oklaho- ma and Florida. In 1912 it was driv- en back in all the state save Ala bama and Florida, where still fur. ther aggressions were made.
 It developed at the hearings today that the department thinks the sub ject has been exhausted from sci- entific standpoint 50 far as investiya- tions are concerned and the principal work to be done in the future must be accomplished by extending farm demonstration work. MT. Pierce, who is at the head of this service in the Department of Agriculture, thinks that the boil weevil can be driven out of the United States by the expendi- ture of about $25,OO0,0OO per year. This would contemplate the establish ment of production zone, where no cotton whatever shall be produced for the next few years. ~ - Senator Robinson expressed a doubt ] as to the practicability / of this plan and indicated sa, pEefssspse for <. t4s 41ss

ALDERMAN HAS POLICE ARREST.

Hot Springs, July 25.-Three mem- bers of the local police force were ar- rested Thursday morning charged with assault and battery, trespassing and disturbing the peace. Night Cap tain Bob Bailey, Patrolman Tom Franklin and N. A. Huff were the men arrested. The warrants were sworn out by Sam Williamson of the Grea 1.

Mir. Williamson states that he will vigorously prosecute the officers. A number of travelling men who were in the rotunda at the time of the argu- ment will probably be called as wit nseses.
