SANITARY SURVEY OF
NEWTON COUNTY

Little Rock, June 1.-THE State
Board of Health is preparing to in
augurate a sanitary survey of New
ton county in the very near future.
An expert will be placed in the field
to cooperate with local health officer
in making an investigation for hook
worms, TO be treated at free dispen-
sary, as is being done in many other
counties. In connection with the hook
worm inspection, trachoma will also
be treated and an effort made to pre-
vent the spread of the disease
DR.. Garrison has just made brief
inspection of the county and found
twelve cases in the vicinity of Jasper.
1t is a communicable but not highly
infectious eye disease, and is causing
great deal of blindness among the
Indians. 1t is most prevalent in the
mountain districts and is largely due
to disregard of ordinary hygienic
rules. In one family of twelve child
rem he found two cases, one girl hav-
ing lost one eye entirely and both
eyes of the other being impaired.

INTERSTATE RATES

The decision of the Supreme Court
j tbe United States Monday in the
shreveport rate case was another
,weeping affirmation of that high
,ourt UNFOLDING the supremacy of Con-
cress or the Federal Government in
regulating railroad rates as against
he acts Of the individual state.
Mr. Justice Hughes in delivering
be opinion for the court, says:
Interstate trade was not left to be
destroyed or impeded by the rival
RES of local government. The pur-
nose was to make impossible tie re-
erence of the evil which had over
whelmed the confdration and to pro-
vide the necessary basis of National
unity by insuring uniformity of regu-
lation against conflicting and dis
elimination State Legislation.
aWhenever the interstate and intra-
state transactions of carriers are so
related that the government of the
one involves the control of the other,
It is Congress, not the State, that is
entitled to prescribe the final and DOM
mating rule, for, otherwise, Congress
would be denied the exercise of its
Constitutional authority and the state
and not the Nation would be supreme
in the National field.
This is not to say" the court ad-
ded, shat Congress possesses author
ity to regulate the internal commerce
Of State, as such, but that it does
possess the power to protect interstate
commerce, although the intrastate
transactions of interstate carriers may
thereby be controlled.
at is also clear that in removing
the injurious discrimination against
Interstate traffic arising from the re-
lation OF intrastate and interstate
rates Congress is not bound to reduce
the latter below what it may deem to
be proper standard, fair to the car
ner and to the public"

There are many instances of chart
table giving where the satisfaction
derived proves ample compensation
for the generous gift. An example
in point perhaps is that of Mr. Geo.
Herman, a pioneer resident of aous-
ton, Texas, who has just given to the
city 2S5 acres of land to be used as
a park. The land is said to be worth
$500 per acre which would make the
gift worth nearly half a million dol
lars. Nothing short of true philanthro-
Ply would induce one to make gift of
this character. He has memorialized
himself more indurably perhaps than
marble shaft would have done and
his gift will no doubt always be a
blessing to the people of that city.

Why Not Sand Clay Roads.

OF the 2,S48 miles of good roads
built in 1912 in Florida LAOS miles
were of sand-clay construction, S57
miles were surfaced with mari or
crushed stone, 21S miles with shell, 20
miles with gravel, S1a miles with brick
five miles with cement and about half
a mile with asphalt.
Since ample supplies of sand and
clay are to be found at so many points
in Arkansas, why isn't the sand-clay
road used more in this state? 1t is
built by mixing sand and clay, and if
properly built and maintained it gives
splendid highway the year round at
a low cost.-EX.

How to Force r. r. Com

A good many farmers about the
state annually have more or less trou-
BILE in getting the railroad company
to build it's part Of the fence of a pas
ture. AS a general rule this trouble
arises from the farmer making a verb
al request of tho section boss for the
fence. Now, the section boss has
nothing whatever to do with fences,
but at every station there are blank
printed requests for fences, which the
farmer can fill out and send. through
the agent, to the proper authority.
But before the railroad can be reauir.

farmer will have to complete the build.

farmer can build it himself and collect
the cost thereof from the corporation.

thorizing a thousand miles of govern

the final results of the experimentation
it is just that-will be we shall have to

been in operation a year or two. But
no one doubts the ability of the gov

that in the not very distant future they
will do so; aye, that all our railroads
will some day be taken over by the

a little hard on the European owners
of these roads, but then we are not
particularly interested in the size OF
