UNIQUE OATH TO
 NEW ATTORNEY J. H. BURR IS LICENSED SWEARS TO OATH REGARDING MORAL OBLIGATIONS TO
 COURTS AND CLIENTS.

, Alter passing what Chancellor Jor- dan Sellers declared to be the most creditable examination of any appl- cant for admission to the bar during his administration, J. Herndon Burr, son of Prof. and Mrs. George H. Burr, yesterday afternoon subscribed to unique oath upon the issuance to him of license to practice law in the courts of this state.
 ] Under the statutes of Arkansas sue cessful applicants for admission to the bar are required only to take the usual oath administered to officers, that they will support the constitution and laws of the United States and the state of Arkansas and faithfully per form the duties of their position. The oath ae nistered by Judge Sellers to MT. BuII, however, is more far-reach- ing, involving his ethical obligations to the courts and his clients. It was prepared by the American Bar Asso- citation and is required by law to be administered in several states, though not in Arkansas, and this is the first time on record in the local courts when such an obligation was sworn to by a newly admitted attorney A copy of the oath follows:
 '1 do solemnly swear:
 ! T will support the constitution of i the United States and the constitu- tion of the state of Arkansas. T will maintain the respect due to courts of justice and judicial officers. : Il will not counsel or maintain any suit or proceeding which shall appear to me to be unjust, nor any defense except such as l believe to be honestly debatable under the laws of the land. ! T will employ for the purpose of maintaining the causes confded to me such means only as are consistent with truth and honor, and will never seek to mislead the judge or jury by any artifice or false statement of the fact or law.
 { Fl will maintain the confidence and preserve inviolate the secrets of my client, and will accept no compensa- tion in connection with his business except from him or with his knowl- edge and approval.
 { T will abstain from all offensive personality and advance no fact prejudicial to the honor or reputation of a party or witness, unless required by the justice of the cause with which { am charged.
 T will never reject, from any con- sideration personal to myself, the cause of the defenseless or oppressed, or delay any mans cause for lucre or malice. So help me God"
 Nh. Burr's examination which was conducted by the entire local bar, was rigid one, but he passed it with higl credit. Mir. Burr is graduate of Hendrix College and studied law for year in a Texas university, after wards reading at home. He will leave about the first of the year for Austin, TeNas. where he will be associated with his uncle in the practice of law.
 Contrary to expectations, Judge Sellers did not announce decisions in the Shady Grove school case and oth- CT cases which he had under consid- eration at yesterdays session. De- ciding to take the cases under further advisement, the court announced that another adjourned session of the court would be held here December 22, at which time the decisions would be rendered.

The cotton crop of 1914 will amount to 15,966,OO0 bales of 800 pounds each, according to the government es- innate issued by the department of agriculture at l o'clock this after noon.

CONVENTIONS IN MICHIGAN

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 29-The sever
al political parties in Michigan will
hold their State conventions tOmOr-
row to frame their platforms and to
complete the State tickets by nOmi-
mating candidates for secretary of
State. auditor general, attorney gen.
eral and State treasurer. The Re-
publicans will, meet at Kalamazoo, the
Progressives at Bay City and the
Democrats in Detroit. The Progress
sive convention is to be converted
into a big rally, with a speech by
Colonel Roosevelt as the main attrac'
ton. The platform of the Republi-
cans is expected to furnish more of
the interest in their convention than
will the naming of the candidates. A
contest for control Of the party or
ganization is likely to mark the Demo
cratic convention if this city. Which
ever side wins the platform viii con
sist largely of eulogies OF President
Wilson and Governor Ferris and in
dorsement of their principles.

Crop In Iowa Due To Orchard
Care

Ames, la, Sept. 29--The Iowa apple
Iowa crop service and by the state
horticultural society, indicate prob
able production of approximately L.
100000 bushels for this year. The hor-
ticulturists at Iowa State College say
this production is largely from well
sprayed and we'll cared for orchards,
so that it should be obfest quality.
This class of fruit is expected to find
ready market at fair price this year,
when it will not have to compete local
ly with the poorer grades and Gull
stock from unsprayed orchards. I'm
sprayed orchards will produce practc-
ally nothing this year, while sprayed
orchards report as high as 20 per cent
of last years yield.
The crop in other states of the mid
die West varies, but on the whole the
crop in this section will not be large.
tion of SO per cent; Arkansas, July 1,
65 per cent; southeastern Nebraska,
the principal apple section OF the state,
40 to 45 per cent; Kansas, 35 to As
per Cent; Illinois and Indiana, prob.
ably not to exceed 40 per cent Later
reports may lower these estimates.
The eastern apple producing states
of New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan
and the New England group report
prospects from 65 per cent to rs per
cent of a full crop. This will mean
nearly double last years production, if
conditions remain favorable. Ken
lucky, Virginia, West Virginia and
other southeastern states promise a
good crop. The western states of Col
orado and Utah premise very large
crop. The Augth9estern states will
produce larger cror han in 19l3 but
probably the production will not equal
that OF 1912. In addition there will
be a very much smalier shipment of
low grade frnits ircu1 that section in
to middle western territory than in
1912
Canada reports large crop, but it's
effect on our prices will remain proble-
matical until later development in the
European war determines what eX-
ports will be.
These reports, say the Ames horti-
cu)turists, indicate that the Iowa grow
er should find Already market for his
better grades The local markets will
consume a large percentage of the
fruit where commercial orchards are
scattered. New York has new grade
law which will help to prevent the
shipment of large quantities OF poor
stock into this territory as has been
done in the past. The export trade
this year cannot be predicted at this
time and if curtailed by European
war, much of the usual export stock
will be consumed in this country. This
would cheaper eastern and western ap-
pies, but Iowa growers have splendid
market which is partially closed to
these states, owing to the long freight
haul 1t is the opinion of the Ames
men that the apple grower who,
through foresight and business ability,
has thoroughly protected fruit, will
| reap the benefits this year and it
should prove a prosperous year for
him
