that there was "a foundation Of merit

BASKET BALL AT
 SUTTON SATURDAY
High School Team of This City De- feated by the Team of Sutton
 State High School

The High School five visited Sut- ton Saturday and played a game of Basket Ball with the Sutton State High School team and were defeated by a score of 31 to 6
 The Prescott boys went to Sutton to show that team there "how" to play the game and they evidently received some instructions themselves. They played a very good game and claim that they were out weighted. Another game will be played between these two teams, probably on the high school campus in this city.

just deep enough to- turn the crop un- der well and the usual narrowing and pulverizing to get fine soil before seeding.
 Where there has been no fall and winter breaking done, as is the rule in some sections, it is not advisable to break as deeply in the spring as in the fall; usually not more than two inches deeper than before, and then the clay subsoil should not be turned to the surface. The blow can set to edge the furrow. 1t is found more necessary to get spring broken land finely pulverized and thoroughly pre- pared before planting. It is better to delay planting several days rather than put the seed in poorly prepared bed.

The American Practitioner declares that suicide increases with education and civilization and adds: Tt has been said that the spread of the alpha bet is coincident with that of self murder. The savage rarely takes his own life. In Italy, Russia and Spain where the standard of education is low, the fewest suicides on the conti- uent of Europe occur while in France and Germany, where the people are more sensitive and refined and where the standard of edAcation is higher, the percentage is much increased"

JUDGE REFUSED TO ALLOW
 COST BILL OF SQUIRE
Benton Arrested on Fugitive Warrant Issued by Squire Pope and Judge Mccall Refused to Pay Same
 out of County Treasury

Camden, Ark, Jan. 1.-The second page in the history of the case of the state vs. Frank Benton alias Van Williams was turned on Friday when County Judge E. B. Mccall refused to allow the cost bill of Squire s. A. Pope out of the county treasury.
 Benton was arrested on fugitive warrant issued by Squire Pope, charg- ed with being a fugutive from Texas, having there committed an assault with intent to kill. Gov. Hays also issued an extradition warrant for Van Williams, who committed the crime in Texas. The trial of the fugitive case was set for Dec. 29th and in the mean time a habeas corpus proceeding on the extradition warrant was institut- ed and also set for the 29th. At the habeas corpus hearing, County Judge E. B. Mccall, sitting for the circuit judge, held that Benton was not the same man as the Williams wanted in Texas.
 Following this holding Deputy Pros ecuting Attorney L. B. Smead dismiss ed the fugitive case before Squire Pope. The costs before Squire Pope including the mileage and fees for wit nesses from Nevada and Hampstead counties amounts to something under S200. This bill was presented to the county court, on the ground that it was felony case, and therefore to be paid out of the county treasury County Judge Mccall refused to allow the bill Attorney R. K. Mason, rep resenting the officers and witnesses, took an appeal to the circuit court.
 The case presents point that has rot been settled by the Arkansas Su- prcme Court-whether the accusation

SPRING PREPARATION
 ON SOUTHERN FARMS

Washington, D. C., Jan. 19.-In no section of the country does a well pre- pared seed-bed give better returns than in the Southern States. The best spring preparation of the soil is prac- tically impossible unless it has been properly turned and deeply broken during the previous summer or fall. The necessity for deep blowing in the South is probably not realized by those who are not familiar with the heavy rainfalls in this section, which frequently packs and runs the parti- cles of soil together so as to exclude air and sunshine. The absence of freezing prevents any loosening up of the particles, besides in many places there is an almost imprevious hard pan of subsoil, either natural or brought about from a continuous GUS tom of shallow blowing. In other sec tions this deepening and loosening of the soil is done partly at least by the lOlNSo Ol iiotulS boO Ncll OIlly US complished by the blow in the South. Such are the findings of the Depart ment of Agriculture.
 The best implement for deep break ing of the soil is the disc blow which turns, pulverizes and mixes at the same time. When properly adjusted the disc breaks the land deeply and thoroughly loosens it, mixing this soil and the subsoil to some extent but does not turn to the surface enough of the inert subsoil to injure the sue ceeding crop. The next best method for deep breaking is moldboard blow ing, set to turn furrows on edge and this is followed by a subsoil blow in the same furrow as deeply as desired
 If the cover crop is to follow the fall breaking a thorough preparation of the seed-bed should be made before l planting the seed. If no cover crop is sown the disc harrow or spring tooth harrow should be run over occasional ly to crush clods and keep surface crusts broken for admission of air and sunlight. The usual method is to flat break and where this is done it is best to throw up into beds before planting. Planting may be done with small blows or just as effectively and much faster with disc cultivator set at the proper angle Should there be clods a roller may be used and this is followed with section harrow.
 Too much care cannot be given to the preparation of the seed bed. It not only saves cultivation but makes plant food available and furnishes proper conditions for seed germina- tion and rapid growth. The best farm CTS will tell you that through prepara- tion is more than half the expense of making good crop.
 The spring preparation is never as deep as the land was when broken in the fall or winter. With nearly all field crops firm seed bed is prefer able. Only the first few inches need to be freshened and pulverized at planting time. When the cover crop is drawn under, the blowing should be

 Postal Service:
 The splendid manner in which ev- cry employee of the postal service, in the Department and in the field, aquitted himself in handling the enor- nous quantity of mail during the recent holiday season is not only source of deep qualification to me, but a pride to every American citizen. Although the parcel post more than doubled the usual volume of Christmas mail, the task of handling this mail proved not so much a test of capacity of the postal service as an opportuni- ty for the employees to demonstrate their ability to meet all emergencies. The result is substantial evidence of the energy, resourcefulness, efficiency and loyalty of every employee, where yer his post of duty from the highest to the inconspicuous. This achieve ment assures me that all emergencies of the future will be promptly and eff fectively met.

WEEKLY LETTER OF
 JOHN H. PAGE.
Commissioner of Mines, Manufac-
 lures and Agriculture.

The time for preparation for the 1914 crop is here. One of the first things to look after is seed. Good seed pure seed, and seed that will come up when planted, are what you want. If you selected your seed corn from the | field, you are fortunate. Now is the time to test the seed to see if they will give you good stand. The plan of testing was discussed in former let ter. Do not fail to make the test. Remember that after you plant your crop you are going to cultivate the land just the same whether you have good stand or not. Every hill of corn that is missing will count against you at gathering time in the fall. It will not take much time or labor now to test the seed.
 If you did not select your seed from the field, go to the crib now and get the best ears and test them. If you haven't good corn in the crib, it is better to buy your seed corn. If you buy it, would advise you to get it in the ear. You can then see the character of corn. It will cost a lit tie more, but it is worth the difference. Also look we'll after your cotton seed The conditions last fall were not favorable to good cotton seed for planting. Doubtless some of our farm CTS selected their cotton for planting but many did not. There is almost sure to be trouble in getting good planting seed this spring. Now is the time to look after this. You may have to send away for seed. If you do be very cautious, and make a thor ough investigation to see where the seed came from. Ascertain if they came from a boil weevil district, or from section where they have cot ton diseases. Anthracnose is becom- ing more prevalent in this State, and seed from sections where that dis ease prevails should be avoided.
 1t IS a good idea to test your cotton seed before you plant. Do not plant several varieties It is better to con fine yourself to one variety. The few CT the better. If the farmers of a whole community would club toge- ther and plant only one variety and have it all ginned on the same gin in the same way, they would doubtless be able to sell their cotton at a high CT price, especially if they had 300 or a thousand bales.
 Prepare the seed bed well. When the seed bed is well prepared before planting, it will save labor in culti- vating afterward.

 Commissioner of Agriculture.
