TINE TO GET BUSY,

There's one thing to be said to the
merchants, manufacturers and pusi-
ness men of Pine Bluff thing to De
said once and not repeated because
there's little good in repeatedly ar
ING these things. 1t is this: Pipe
bluff tradesmen must be up ana
doing il they are not to lose a great
mart of the trade in the Pine Bluft
territory. Memphis and Little ROCK
New Orleans and st. Louis, and even
Kanaas City is reaching out for THIS
trade. The resumption of traffic on
sthe Mississippi and the Arkansas
rivers will help three OF these big
competitors the completion OF the
Pine Bluff-Little Rock interurban
will afford the capital city advant-
ages for attracting trade from this
city and section it does not now pos
sess. Pine Bluff people must become
active now, arrange for utilizing the
Arkansas river and get the people
into the habit of trading in PINE
Bluff, If we wait until the storm Is
upon us, it will be too late to hunt
cover. That's all. but just think
about it.

BUTTON SAVES LIFE.
Bullet Is DETECTED and Only Wounds
DR.. Alex Stephens at
Conway.

Conway, Ark, July 10.-Thc deflec-
ton of bullet by suspender but
ton may prove the saving of the life
of DR.. Alex Stephens, of Springfield,
who was shot during a pistol duel
with DR.. James Cole, of the same
place.
The bullet, entering DR.. Stephens
abdomen, was DETECTED around the
walls of the abdomen by the suspend
err button, and lodged in the physl-
clans back. Surgeons have removed
it, and he has a good chance OF recov-
cry.
The cause of the fight is not known,
but it is said to have it's origin in pro-
fessional relations. The two men, who
had been enemies for some time en-
gagged in fight. Cole was knocked
down, but fired at Stephens from the
ground, the first shot disabling his
opponent.
Dr. Stephens is brother of Post
master A. J. Stephens of Morrlllton.

ern Arkansas discussing amendment
No. IA, the bond issue amendment,
and so little opposition was found to
it in that section that it is safe to
prophesy that it will be adopted in
that section by tremendous major
ity. This being measure for the
people, they are meeting it with open
arms 1t being a measure for the
towns and cities, the residents of the
rural communities are pledging
themselves to it's support in order
that the cities may make improve
ments they desire. 1t is necessary
that the voter in the country pre-
cincts support the measure or it will
fail, for majority of all votes cast
must be in favor of the amendment
or it fails to become law. The fact
that the citizens of the towns and
cities must vote for bond issue, and
the power does not rest with board
or small body Of men, assures them
that the bond issue is properly safe
guarded.

CAN'T CATCH 4 WILD HORSE.
Farmers in North Carolina Find Sport
in the Chase.

Chatham, N. C., July 10.-About two
NoI three months ago couple of drov-
ers came here with about fifty or six
ty unbroken horses and sold them to
the farmers and other. They were as
wild as could be, none of them ever
having had bride put on them.
Nearly all of them were soon broke
to work to harness, but one or two
managed to escape from their owners
and make for the tall timbers. One of
them was soon caught, but the other
one was too wild and has refused to
be taken into captivity again. He has
afforded several of the citizens around
here lots of long chases and any
amount of fun.
One man living in the country shot
at him several. times and tried to kill
him, as he was destroying the farm
er's corn and oats. The pony is not
dead yet nor has he, at last accounts,
been caught, although a party spent
part of yesterday trying to catch him.

ABOUT AUTO-DRIVING

The council is considering the ad-
visibility of doing two things that
should be done without more delay:
Enact an ordinance prohibiting the
use of the muffler cut-out on autos,
and adding to the police force a
motorcycle officer to enforce traffic
regulations.
Meme objects to autoists having all
the fun they please, but it is rather
disagreeable to be awakened at all
hours of the night by the put-put-put
of an auto speeding on paved street
the autoist verify likely did not help
pay for and footing the horn loudly
as though to punctuate the explosions
of the engine. Muffler cut-uts' and
loud horns should be put under the
ban. 1t is not necessary to have a
screeching horn that startles one out
OF his wits in order to obtain a clear
road The fright induced by some of
these horns, manipulated by incon-
siderate people, is almost as bad as
the injury that might be inflicted by
the car if pedestrian did not git
out de way"
Oaly by using motorcycle officer
can the law-breaking, peace-disturb-
ing, life-endangering autoist be
brought to time. Not only can a
mounted maa cover more ground, but
he can secure the evidence necessary
to convict. And when convicted, the
court should not hesitate to impose
Jail sentences if fines do not serve as
a deterrent
There is one thing, though, to be
considered in the trial of an autolst'
His manner of driving. Some can
drive a car at forty miles an hour
and are not as great a menace 10
others as a reckless, helter-skelter'
hair-bra\aed fellow driving at a
speed Of twenty miles an hour.
The autoists are responsible I'D
great measure for the good roads
movement, but unless the reckless
ones are subdued it is only question
of time when property-owners will
lnecome SO prejudiced against the
sers OF the buzz-wagons that they
uone refuse to invest money in paved
he aets and good roads.

EYE.STRAIN

Measurement of human eyes dem
onstrate that there is probably no
such thing in the world as an abso-
lutely perfect eye. That would be a
miracle which nature with all her in
finite ingenuity has never perform
ed. No human face among all the
worlds sixteen hundred million may
be held perfect, either artistically or
physiologically. TO the owner of the
face, this is relatively an unimportant
matter but to the owner of the pair
CT eyes an error of one three-hund-
redth of an inch in the curvature or
dimensions of the eyeballs may make
their all-important function abnormal
resulting in eye-strain with its at
tendant physical ills. The eyes re-
spends to the slightest physical force
in the world. that is. light waves
which are hundreds OF millions OF
times more infinitesimal than could
waves. The eyes are the hardest
worked OF all organs, and the safety
and existence of human live fire.
quently depend directly on their &C
curate working. The harmful results
of eye-strain, never wholly absent
throughout life, may begin very early
in childhood, even in the second
year. Many little children, for in
stance, are constantly tearing their
clothes, hurting their feet and legs
stumbling and falling. because theil
eyes are so faulty that their eSti-
mates of the size, location and nature
of objects are not crrectly made
adults who have been blind and arc
suddenly given good vision, require
years to learn to see with accuracy
or safety in action. Probably pei

From 6 to 10 years OF age many chill
dren show an incomprehensible
nervousness" twitching OF the hands
and lace, tickle appetite and, various
disorders, all usually due to eye
strain. Yet almost all OF these
cases of eye-strain can be relieved
and should be relieved in early child
hood. The Importance OF correcting

school years, and the influence oi

MAKE MAD RUSH
FOR POLICIES
Great Mass Of Policies Have Been
Piled Up Since the Rates
Were Published.

New York, July 1870 great was
the rush nthe part of employers
throughout the state for insurance
under the new workmen's compensa-
ton law, which went into effect on
July 1, that the Workmen's Compen-
sation commission granted an extern
sion of ten days, or until today, to
the state insurance fund and the in
surance companies, in which to get
out the great mass of policies which
piled up since the rates were publish
ed. During this time the capacity OF
the stock insurance companies and OF
the state insurance fund workers has
been taxed to the utmost. The con-
structive program outlined by the
department in the new law is expect
ed to bring monotonous change in
methods and practices Of insurance
and uniformity in such
practices that will be helpful in the
administration of the law. 1t is also
designed to revolutionize the liability
insurance business.

PARCEL POST MARKETING.

Wide interest has been excited in
the experiments of the postofflce de-
partment in marketing by parcel post
and the developments have. been
watched closely, for there seem to
be great possibilities in the idea.
The original idea of the department
was that the parcel post would be
used most in the vicinity of large
cities in the marketing of butter,
eggs and small fruits in small guam
titles Unexpectedly, the parcel post
system of marketing has been taken
up in New Mexico, and it is an
nopnced that fruit raisers of the
Pecos valley will ship plums to mar
ket by parcel post in carload guam
titles. The Hope Press explains how
this will be done:
"W. p. Riley, one of the largest
fruit growers in the Hope district,
will ship several cars of plums this
year, and at least one car will be sent
via parcel post, consigned to whole
sale houses in Ell Paso. 1t has been
a little hard to get lPecos, and PeIa-
SEQ valley fruit into Ell Paso, as the
freight and express rates are based
on milage, and the mileage around
either the north Or south is something
awful. But under the parcel post
rules Ell Paso is in the second zone
from Hope and from Artesia and with
the fruit packed in 50-pound pack
ages it can be shipped to Ell Paso for
$1.9S per 100. This includes the haul
to Artesia, which would cost. the
growers Is or 20 cents per 100. The
fruit will be put through to Ell Paso
in the same time as the Their mail,
and the cost will be less than ex-
press charges. If, as is now thought,
the limit on parcels in the first two
zones will soon be raised to 100
pounds, it will reduce the cost of
transportation to $1.O4 per 100.
If this experiment proves success
full the parcel post marketing idea
may take an altogether new trend
Instead of being used by the small
farmer to market barnyard products
to individuals, it may be used by
large dealers to market any kind OIL
product to the consumer. Corpora
tons will be quick to seize the idea
if it is practicable and the individual
farmer may be left at the post in the
race. Only by cooperation will hi
be able to hold his own In this da,
| and age the class of men who fail t.
cooperate are at disadvantage, M
matter what their line of endeavor.

THE COTTON ARMY WORM.
By George G. Becker,
Entomologist Arkansas Experiment
Citation

by OGOl &c VI. DSChSI,
Entomologist Arkansas Experiment
Station.
This is the slender green caterpil-
lar, frequently with black markings
which comes in late summer and
rage" in the cotton. 1t can be dis
tinguished from most other caterpil-
lars by it's Looping motion in walking.
Control: The insect can be con-
trolled by busting the cotton with ar
senate of lead or Paris green. The ar
senate Of lead for many reasons is SUI
perior to the Paris green and should
always be used when it can be obtain
ed. Paris green when busted on the
cotton should first be diluted with an
equal amount of cheap. flour or air
slaked lime, One pound of Paris
green properly diluted should be ap-
piled to one acre. Arsenate of lead
powder does not have to be diluted
and where it is used should be applied
at about the rate of pounds per
acre. The busting can be best done
by a cheap devict constructed espe-
cially for the purpose. Take 1x3-
inch board and cut it so that it will be
about IL to Is inches longer than
the distance between cotton rows.
Bore hole with an inch and a half
auger about inches from the end Of
each board. Now tack under each hole
a sack which is the width of the
board about five inches deep and Is
inches long. This is tackled around
the edges of the board, making in eff
feet two sacks which can be filled
through the holes in the board. The
cloth used should be an ordinary I'M
starched sheeting running about four
pounds to the yard. Each person
busting SHOULD be equipped with two
of these SO that one can be left to be
filled while thu other is in use. With
such device person goes down be-
tween the rows on foot or muleback
and dusts the cotton by gently tap
ping the board. The poison should be
distributed at the rate previously in
dictated. The worm should be distri-
buted at the rate previously Indicated
The worm will usually appear in
spots variously scattered over the
cotton field. These spots should be
busted at the very first appearance
and if subsequent examination shows
the worms rather generally scattered
over the field no time should be lost
in doing the busting. The time to
dust is when the worms are few in
number. 1t is the second crop Of
worms which does the damage. The
second crop should be prevented by
killing the first. Rains frequently
make it necessary to make more than
one dusting. ..5,.
Precaution: Sores should be band
aged to prevent the poison from get
ting into them. If breeze is blow
ing tie handkerchief over the nose
and mouth. Upon clearing the throat
do not swallow the saliva. Stock
used in busting should be rubbed
over with a moist cloth at the end Of
each day.

Ham. Good, Is IS Years Old.

New England, N. OAK, July 1O.-A
ham, thirty-five years old, was dug
up today by excavators whl are pre-

Herald building here. In 1887 people
from the New England states started a
colony and town site here, calling it
New England. This ham was in eel
lar, which later caved in, burying the
meat, which is in edible condition and
bears the imprint of we'll known
packing company.
