STRAWBERRIES
 ARE RlPEENlNG

Within a few days strawberry picking will commence in this vicinity. We were shown a nun. Der of berries this afternoon by D. E. Cummings. who has five acres this year on his farm, one mile south of this city, and they are just beginning to ripen.
 Some time last year there were citizens of Prescott and vicinity wlo pledged themselves to plant a total of 250 acres of berries. We are informed that not over 50 acres were cultivated. To get the best prices for berries, an acreage that will produce some thing like two or three cars per day during the season will have to be cultivated. When this is done, and our growers can ship

not less than tivecars every other day, the transportation charges will allow them a good profit on their crop.
 The berry crop is the most profitable that can be grown. There will always be a good de mand for them and our soil is we'll adapted for them. We pre-. dict that in 1915 Prescott will ship from 20 to D cars every week during the season.

LITTLE ROCK ISO-

Little Rock, April 9-Little Rock tonight is isolated from the rest of the world. Not a train has been run out of here since early this morning. The Iron Mountain hopes to be able to run train to St. Louis tonight, but is doubtful of it's ability to do so. Local weather records wer e smashed when 9.56 inches of rain fell during the eighteen hours ending at 3 3o'clock this afternoon. The previous record was 6.83 in twenty-four hours. At Forche a sluggish creek has become a raging torrent and the homes of dozens of negroes are under wat CT. It is not believed any lives were lost, Several negro fami- lies living north Of Argenta were rescued from the upper stories and roofs of their homes by the Argenta firemen early this morn ing. The main pipe line which conveys natural gas from the Caddo, La, fields to Little Rock has burst near Benton, Ark. A great many of Little Rock homes are without heat or light as a re. suit. Hotels and restaurants were able to serve only the most simple dishes today. Gas com pany officials are unable to re- pair the break because of inabili. to transport a repair crew to Benton They may have to wait several days.

AS TO THE
 COvERNORsHIp.

Little Rock, April 1O.-There are indications that former Con- gressnan S. Brundidge. of Searcy, may have no opposition for the Democratic nomination for Governor.
 The situation has been clearing perceptibly since the action of the State Central Committe. Tuesday, in calling the primary for June 21, and assessing the cost, S1,500, against the candi- dates.
 Associate Justice w. F. Kirby gave the following official state ment to the Parke- Harper News Service, the first definite an> nouncement he has made:
 I will not be a candidate at this time for Governor. I have made three expensive campaigns during the last six years, and my financial condition is such that 1 cannot afford to enter this race,
 Hon. John H. Hinemon, a mem Der of the State Board of Char itable Institutions, made the fol lowing statement;
 Il shall not be a candidate for the nomination for Governor. In fact, 1 do not know that I shall ever be a candidate for office again. l once cherished an earn. est desire to serve the state as it's chief executive, believing that 1 could be of real benefit to the commonwealth to which l have devoted my life. 1 made one ex pensive campaign for Governor much more expensive than 1 dreamed it would be when 1 entered the contest. 1 appre. ciate the abiding confidence of those faithful friends who have recently solicited and urged me to become a candidate at this time, but 1 fear that the time has not come when a man of small means may aspire with conf dence to the position of Cover nora position of high honor and responsibility"
 It is learned from friends in close touch with Dr. c. H. Brough, of the University fac ulty, that he will not be in the race on account of the expense.
 It is also reported on good authority that Judge George w. Hays, of Camden, who has been prominently mentioned, has not fully decided to make the race.
 David A. Gates, of Little Rock, and T. c. McRae, of Prescott, are among those who have been mentioned, but they have an nounced that they will support Brundidge.
 In the event that no other can- didate enters the field, there will be no primary, and the con- mittee will certify s. Brundidge as the nominee for the election on July 23.
 The final notice of the intention of any candidate to enter the race must be filed with the sec retary of the committee, w. G. Hutton, of Little Rock, by April 21. Should only one candidate signify his intention to run. the committee will meet on April 29

HAVE LONG DURATION OF LIFE
Salt Water Denizens attain Immense
Age, If Scientific Investigations
Are Correct.

Water, particularly salt water,
seems to conduce to longevity. There
are gigantic mussels and oysters
whose age is assumed to be compar-
able only with that of the Cape Verde
baobab tree and the big tree OF Cali
fornia, which live for 5000 years In
deed, there appears no particular
reason why mussels should sever die,
though 1t is also true that, consider
ing the sort of life a mussel leads,
there seems no particular reason why
it should ever have lived.
Sea anemones, again, delicate and
sensitive though they look when we
see them in the rock pools, may at
tain great age. Sir John Dalyell, a
Scottish naturalist, captured in 1928
a sea anemone of the liver-colored
sort SO common around our shores
Its age was then estimated at seven
years. 1t flourished in Edinburgh un-
til 1887, and was just attaining a vigor-
GUS and sober maturity when, from
some unknown cause, it died.-Lon-

WHERE HER THOUGHTS WERE
Most Married Men Have Had a Sim.

Admit the Truth.

The husband was reading a news
paper account to his wife. Now and
then he paused and asked a question.
The nature of her replies made him
doubt that she was listening closely.
He accused her of having thoughts
elsewhere, and she Indignantly retort-
ed that she had heard every word.
He continued reading for a few
minutes and then glanced at her.
From the far-away look in her eyes
he knew her thoughts were not upon
the item he was reading. So, turn
ing the sheet as an excuse for a
pause, he continued as follows, ap-
parently reading
Last night, about two O'Clock in

Representatives of eleven sand COM
panies met with the state executive
council here to discuss the new law
passed by the 1918 legislature, which
requires that a royalty must be paid
the state on all sand and gravel taken
out of navigable streams in the state.
The executive council will meet soon
TO fix the amount of the royalty. Just
to get the matter of the size of the
royalty up for discussion at the meet
ing it was suggested by a member of
the executive council that a royalty
of 10 per cent of the gross earnings
be assessed on sand. A number of
the sand dealers who spoke ON the
matter objected to that amount, say
ing that If any royalty is assessed, 5
per cent of the gross earnings would
be enough. An average price for sand
received by these companies is 20
cents per ton. 1t is not improbable
that some of the sand companies may
bring suit to test the law.
