will be three lectures each day from l o'clock until i and two lectures each night from ' o'clock until 3. This school will be of value to every farmer who feeds and raises stock.
 The Stock Show will be free to every farmer who comes. The show stock will be cared for while in Little Rock at no eX- pense to the owner. If you have not entered your blooded stock yet, write the secretary at Lit tie Rock. There will be a great show of blooded stock. Every kind of registered animal in Ar kansas will be represented. Among them will be one 5000 Jersey Heifer and two $500 Jer sey Heifers, two 5000 Hereford Heifers and five of the best stallions in the country. Every class of fine bred hog will be on exhibition. The show will be worth the trip to the meeting. You will be surprised to see the variety of the finest blooded stock in Arkansas.
 You are urged to attend this meeting. It is an opportunity to familiarize yourself with the types and breeds of the best stock and learn how to handle them. At the present time there is no new enterprise of so much importance to the Arkansas farmer.
 The Secretary of Agriculture has furnished an expert on Dali lying and on the Silo. Crops for Ensilage will be discussed by men who have made a life's work of the subject. The school will be for farmers who want to know something more about stock and the show will be for the further benefit of these far mers.
 Make. your plans to attend this meeting of the stock grow CTS. It is not necessary that you be breeder of high class stock. Come and you will enjoy the work.

Dried Fruits An Economical And
 Valuable Diet.

Valuable Diet.
 Special to Independent.
 Washington, D. C., Feb. B. Fresh fruits are divided into two classes, "flavor fruits" and flood fruits," according as they are valued for their flavor or as food, according to the Office of Nutrition Investigations for the United States Department of Agriculture. Those that are 80 per cent or more water fall un- der the first classification (ap- ples, pears, peaches, and most of cur common fruits), while those containing less fall under the latter (bananas, grapes, and figs). The food value of a pound of dried fruit is, of course, much greater than that of a pound of fresh fruit. A pound of the lat

Enforcing Ten Hour Law.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Feb. 3.-The ef- forts.Gf the State Labor Con- missioner, J. c. Clary, to enforce the ten-hour statute against saw mills and blaming mills of the state, is causing a great deal of discussion.
 MT. Clary is today holding a conference with a number of the mill men of the state at the Ho- tel Marion for the purpose of considering the application of the act to the woodworking in- dustry of the state. The act is said to be working a great hard ship on the mill-men of the state, as it has been construed, as it forbids working overtime even with consent of the labor CT, and for increased pay.
 That the act does not apply to heading mills and furniture fac tories is the opinion of Attorney General w. L. Moose, who has written Dan T. Cutting, presi- dent of the Lumbermen's Club of Eastern Arkansas, at Helena: {:
 "Your letter has been received in which you ask whether or not Act No. 49, passed in 1905, pre- scribing the ten hour law for saw mills and blaming mills ap- plies to other woodworking plants such as heading mills, slave mills, veneer mills, and furniture and chair factories.
 'In asmuch as the statute is penal statute, I think it should be strictly construed, so as not to include any other plants ex- cept saw mills and blaming mills. Unless the other mills you men, tion were operated in connection with saw mills and are consider ed a part of the plant, think the act would not apply to them. In construing a statute of this kind words should be given their ordinary acceptation and a head ing mill or furniture factory could not properly be designat- ed a saw mill or blaming mill Besides, the act, having speci- fled saw mills and blaming mills

tricts Into which the country would be
divided. The bureau would have power
to establish and conduct FREQ public en-
pioyment offices.
The National Bureau would have juris-
diction over all private employment
offices doing an Interstate business or ac-
cepting workmen for shipment to other
States. state, municipal and private en-
pioyment offices would be urged to CO.
operate with the national bureau and to
adopt uniform methods and regulations
The bureaus most important service
would be to gather and distribute ac-
curate information regarding the labor
market In various localities. This IN
formation would be published In the form
Of bulletins to be issued In English and
other languages at frequent intervals and
to be classed In such q way that they
would be available to every person In
search Of work and every employer seek
Ing workmen.
One Interesting feature Of the plan Is
the proposal for the appointment OF an
advisory council for the national bureau
houses II would be composed OF an
equal number Of representatives OF en-
pioyers and Of employees and would
assist the director In all matters pertain
ing to the management would aid In
determining policies and would see that
tUo bureau was trUphT'Idt III ulSpbtco wv
tween tabor and capital. thus gaining for
II the confidence Of the whole public. Tho
district advisory councils would be APP
pointed by the Secretary Of Labor.
Every employment office conducted by
the bureau would be required to send q
daily report OF business to the clearing
house Of the district In which II was sit
uated Every private employment agency
would be required to make q weekly re-
port to the district office. Every State
and municipal employment office would
be requested or induced to mako daily
reports
The proposals include rules and regu-
iations to be enacted into law prohibiting
false representations requiring notice OF
strikes. prohibiting fees before service Is
rendered and otherwise safeguarding the
patron OF the employment office against
exploitation.
Copies OF the proposals have been sent
to persons who will be summoned to
testify before the commission at the series
OF public hearings that begin May
In New York and that will include hear
ings at many large Industrial centres.
This part OF the commissions work Is
being directed by w. NJ Leiserson. State
