CAUSES CONCERN HERE
Roman Catholic Relief Fund Was to

The arrest of Cardinal Mercier, the
Belgian prelate, by the Germans, news
of which arrived here yesterday in dis

much concern among Roman Catholics OF
this city, principally because collection

through the clergymen of the Roman

sum realized was to be turned over to
Cardinal Mercier for distribution In that
war-torn country.

this could not be confirmed. The charge
made against Cardinal Mercler by the
Germans is said to be that he pleaded

tion to other crops, but the railroad cannot, for they have only one product to sell; namely, transportation.
 Now, Mr. Farmer, it is quite true the law of the land does not fix the price at which you shall sell your cotton. But the farmer, individually and through the Farmers Union, has been complaining bitterly for many years of the evil of the price being fixed by the cotton exchanges without any regard to the cost of raising cotton The manufacturer, the jobber and the retail merchant fix prices on their goods to insure a profit. The farmer has no say as to the price he shall get for his product Liverpool and New York; where no cotton is grown, fix it for him.
 You know the evil of it and may apply your case to that of the railroads, whose rates are fixed by law without consulting the roads and with no regard to the cost of building and operating, or profits.
 The present law compels us to sell our transportation at less, and we are asking the people to adjust this condition. On ac- count of the low price of cotton the prof itable farming campaign was recently in- augurated, and the railroads assisted in every possible way. They are at all times willing to assist in the advancement of the great State of Arkansas, and are only ask ing for fair treatment in return.

ALFALFA ON A LIME SOIL
Arkansas College of Agriculture WIll
 Furnish Directions For Shipping.

If you have had trouble getting good stand of clover or alfalfa, it may be because your land is sour. These two crops are very sensitive to acid or sour conditions, and will not do well on such soils. The acidity of soils is due to the lack of lime, and it can only be corrected by the appli- cation of finely ground limestone, slaked lime, lime kiln ashes, or some other substance containing lime. Any one who suspects that his soil is acid may have it tested free by the Ar kansas Agricultural Experiment Sta tion at Fayetteville. Full directions for taking and shipping the samples will be sent to all who apply at the Experiment Station.

Passenger Rates

With the farmer and cotton planter cost and selling prices vary with the industrial conditions and the extent of supply and de- mand. With the railroads the price that they can charge for their product-trans- portation-is fixed by law, irrespective of the cost of producing samc This expense, as is well known, for the last few years has been greatly on the increase.
 The records show that for the season of 1912-1913 the average price of cotton was 11W cents per pound, or, in round figures, $6O.00 per bale.
 In 1912 the railroads received 60 cents for transporting passenger twenty miles. Today, in 1915, you are receiving $40.00 for bale of cotton, and it is admitted that you cannot raise the cotton and make any profit at this figure
 Today we are receiving 40 cents for transporting passenger twenty miles, and after giving the two-cents- -per-nile rate thorough trial, we say just as frankly that we cannot continue to transport a passen- ger twenty miles for 40 cents, continue to give the service people demand, and meet expenses.
 The government figures that the average cost of raising pound of cotton is 8 3-16 cents. Therefore, eight-cent cotton is not profitable; but the farmer and cotton planter can find relief, for he can turn his atten-
