BLOCKING THE FEE MILL.

One of the most pernicious systems of law enforcement, to have the sanction of the courts and the law is the fee system that controls township and a ma- jority of the county office throughout the state.
 There is a growing opposition to the system that must fight it's way against political odds in ev- cry session of the legislature, when various counties attempt to secure immunity from the leech- like process of the fee grabber.
 Justice records all over Arkan- sas are disgraced with entries of fines of "one cent and costs," or "one dollar and costs, "-always the costs-for the justice and the constable must be taken care of, and petty misdemeanors are their lawful prey.
 From time to time the fee mills are blocked by courageous judges or grand juries, and the time is coming when all officers will be placed on a salary and justice will be dealt out more justly.
 The county judge of Sebastian county has just given orders that will stop a practice justices have of suspending fines in con- sideration of the payment of costs. He has ordered that the practice must be stopped, and that hereafter the constable will be held responsible for all fines wherein defendants have paid costs.
 In Pulaski county Circuit Judge Fulk ordered that jurors shall receive certificates of ser vice only at the end of their ser vice, which will eliminate fees of $1.15 for each certificate issued. With the publicity act in force, such a prohigate dissipation of the peoples taxes would not look well in print.
 Gradually but surely condit- ions are fighting themselves.
 And the fee system is one of the things that must go.-Ark- ansas Progress.

connection. The first is that no odors can escape from a build lnTs doors and windows if ex- haust fans make an indraft at these openings. The second fact IS that if air impregnated with foul odors is passed through the furnaces of the power plant of a manufacturing concern the odors are destroyed, as the practice at modern garbage reduction plants proves.
 Now the packing concerns of National City can afford to make these changes. The dullness of the times on account of world war has not cheapened food. Beafsteak and ham and lamb chops are still "skurce and high" The packing houses of National City have been too long permit ed to foul the air breathed by 1000, ,0OO human beings. And if wise in their generation their managers will move to correct this at once.

AN OPINION OF DEM
 DESPERATION WORK

Mir. J. Hillister Tull, agricul- turalist of the Kansas City Southern railway with head quarters at Mena, Ark, sets out his opinion as to the value of the Farmers Cooperative Demon stration Work as follows:
 "The Kansas City Southern Railway runs through parts of five counties of this state and up to this year there has been a good agent in each county. This year there are two counties which l believe do not have agents but think the necessary funds will be raised for this work for another year. Up to this year we had a good man in Polk county and his good work can be seen all over the county this year. We will have banner crops He was recently elected county judge and we expect some better thing in another year. There has been a marked change for the betetr in our territory since the Demonstration agent became the county unit around whom this development revolves. He IS the man to whom everybody looks for agricultural promotion and is the man who generally makes the county fair possible, which everybody knows is the crowning feature for all farmers after the crops are produced.
 "l often spend a day with the agents in their territory and find that they are highly respected by the business men of the town and that their opinions are sought by the farmers. I con- sider the personal contact work which these agents carry on over the country as being worth more in the way of agricultural devel- opments than any one other phase of development work which is being carried on today.
 Each farm is a unit and has characteristics which are different from all other farms and each farmer has diff ferent problems to overcome. The county agent makes a good advisory board as two heads are better than one and while the agent cannot give him every thing he can give him the best of all things he gathers in his travels over the different com munities.
 T find all of the agents in our territory good fellows and prac- tical men and 1 know they are greatly improving their local On account of our small territory in this state am not prepared to say just what they are dong as a whole over the state, but will state that if the rest of the agents are doing as we'll in proportion as the few in our territ ory the farming con- ditions in Arkansas will show a marked increase in another five years-so great indeed that peo- pie in other states when one says he lives in Arkansas, will not smile but will say: Tell me more about it as 1 have heard something.'

try the same thing again. You won't
be able to smoke enough to hurt your

tracing the cornsilk habit.
Dime novels make good summer

Birds occupy q unique position
among the enemies of insects, since
their power Of fight enables them at
short notice to gather at points where
there are abnormal insect outbreaks.
An unusual abundance of grasshop-
pers. for instance. in a given locality
soon attracts the birds from q wide
area, and as rule their visits cease
only when there are no grasshoppers
left. However unlike they may be in
appearance, structure. and habits, all
are similar in ono respectfully pos

birds-Quite unlike I'M appearance. but

name. The bobwhite Is loved by every
dweller In the country and is better

In this stage the spores are produced

rapidly and appears to do the greatest
amount Of harm.

ity Of the asparagus plants is reduced,
the third and final stage, known as the
