Notwithstanding the fact that there have been only a couple of light rains, and no general rain in this county for period of twelve weeks, and the thermometer has had the highest maximum ave age, we believe, that we have ever experienced in the thirty-three years we have lived i'll Arkansas, twenty eight of which have been spent in Forrest City. still, a large majority of the people are opti- mistic, and believe the cotton crop will yield fairly good returns on the investment of money and labor. As has beea truthfully said anypody can smile when fortune favors.9 but it takes brave heart to look on the bright side when misfortune over takes you and yicissitudes pile up high and deep.

SERIOUS and fatal accidents from automobiles are becoming more nu- merous than from almost any other one source. Many of these are due to carelessness and desire to exceed ordinary and sane speed. We are liy. ing In fast age, and crowding two hours into one whenever possible
 Reckless driving and failure upon inc part or many owners to appreciate the Importance of head and rear lights
 are responsible for many serious acci- dents that could easily be avoided
 Automobile accidents are even becom- Ing more numerous than railway ac- cidents, comparatively speaking. at least, and 1t is time there should be more precaution. No use to endapger and sacrifice life for speed. Take your time; light your lamps, and al- ways be on the alert for every emer- gency The number of machines in general use is increasing every day. The automobile has come to stay. They will soon be a necessity. And they are alright when in charge of a careful chauffeur, or one who appre. ciates the dangers of reckless driving Take a word of advice from us-keer your lights burning after dusk, and your foot on the soft Slow pedal

CONGRESSMAN Caraway is having some trouble with his recommends tions in several counties. His ap- pointee, Cogbill, at Wynne, was turned down, and some others, per haps, who were said to be very un- popular with the people The climax was reached, however, when two of his recommendation for postmaster at Jonesboro had been rejected, and he is out in an open letter to Senator Clarke, in which he accuses the sena- tor of taking revenge on the people of that county for voting for Kirby. and proposing to leave the matter tC a preferential primary election. That is the way all srah appointments should be made, and if fairly conduct. ed will do away with practically all dissatisfaction.

THE DIST DEVIL.

A dream of yesterday becomes a reality of today, best tells the progress Of oiling of streets which is now in full swing. Main street and a mum Der Of other prominent streets of Cotton Plant have this week been graded and received their first coating of oil, the first in the history of the town The work of grading and oiling all the streets is progressing rapidly A com mittee of two were appointed last week to solicit funds for oiling all streets and succeeded in raising over $500 in less than one day. The town has donated an equal amount. and the dust devil has been subdued. The work when first spoken of seemed wis ionary but is now reality and 1t will probably be cold day in June when the people of Cotton Plant allow themselves to again be plagued by the dust nuisance Cotton Plant Banner.
 Cotton Plant is bustling little city in Woodruff county We are glad to note the enterprise of it's people. We have suggested ling the streets of Forrest City. It requires someone to take the lead in such matters and push them to successful conclusion It seems big thing, but we under stand that it is really cheaper in the long run than water. We have never seen an oiled street and do not know except from hearsay, how effective the oil is in keeping down the dust, but if it is a success, Forrest City should have 1t, by all means.
