Dickson on the many improve ments they are making on their pretty ranch two miles south of Brinkley.
 The Park ranch northwest of Brinkley has been leased to a practical rice farmer from Stutt- gart and they will put in 50 acres of fine new ground in rice.
 Out on the big Hunter Rice x Land Co.,, ranch northeast of Brinkley where Manager Walter Dickson made a 27,000 bushel crop last season, they are put ting in about 580 acres of rice and about 75 acres in corn, peas and oats this year.
 From every ranch comes the same prosperous talk and ii Brinkley situated in the hub of this great rce belt doesn't move up many pegs this year, it will be a surprise to many.

From every corner comes the report that there is going to be an increase in the rice average in the Brinkley territory. this year. The splendid results ac- complished the past year, the splendid price of $l.00 and more per bushel gave to every rice farmer a wonderful good feeling and a desire to do even better this year, when it is nearly a sure thing that the price of rice MUST stay up around the dollar mark.

 Time and Method of Seeding.
 Sudan grass may be sowed in April, May or June, either broadcast or in rows Of 211 to feet apart. Broad cast seeding requires 15 to 20 pounds per acre. while row planting requires only two to four pounds per acre. Pre- pare land as for any other crops and have ground smooth and as level as possible. Peas or soy beans may be mixed with sudan grass to make hay.
 Yield and Quality.
 The yield of this grass is high. Nearly five tons per acre have been obtained where conditions favored. and it rarely ever falls as low as one ton per acre of cured hay. Analyses have not yet been made or. at least reported, but it has proved palatable. ana probably has about the same feed. Ing value as Johnson grass or a little better as it is more leafy. It is use. fui as a soiEng crop for feeding dairy cows.

City Health Officer Stout on Tuesday discovered that the Water & Light Go. were again pumping water from the open pit, use of which has been out lawed by the Health Officer some, mon ths ago.
 Health Officer Stout stated that the health and lives of the people of Brinkley were being endangered by such a disregard of laws by the Water Company and that criminal prosecution will probably follow any other violations of the health laws by the Water Co.
 The sincere thanks of the public, many hundred of whom have to depend solely on city water, are due Doctor Stout for his prompt action in protection of their health and lives, by go- ing with the City Marshal and forcing the abatement of this dangerous violation of h e health law.

carefully gone into the matter and had made a report, that the ARGUS had published this report as a matter of news, and when Mananger Thompson angered by same, had called and dubbed this report a lie and threatened against further publication that he had offered MT. Thompson the whole front page of the ARGUS (without cost if necess- ary for him to explain wherein it was a lie, or unfair to him. and that he had not seen fit to say a word. Folsom stated that he did not know a man in Brink ley who was unfriendly to MT. Thompson and his company, that he KNEW that there were many who had shown their friendliness
 
 in a stronger way than mere talk. Folsom contended that the ARGUS in taking the stand it had done, was only doing it's duty as a newspaper, and that so long as he owns the ARGUS it would continue along that line, and that all of the pressure of Attorney Greenlee, the Light & Water Co.,. or any other monied interests would not keep him from doing what he conceived to be his duty in the publishing of what he considered was fair and right.
 Editor Folsom together with Benj. Emmons, appreciating President Chaney's embarrassing position, and his splendid ser vice to the League, moved that the League decline to accept his resignation which was so voted after which, as a courtesy to him, the League agreed to so amend its acts, that MT. Chaney could consistently remain as presiding officer.

and peppery you ought to begin attending the Brinkley Commer- cial League meetings, that is if the past two meetings of that body are to be considered fair samples.
 The meeting on Tuesday night was opened by President Chaney who presented his resignation. MT. Chaney explained that in as much as the League at the last meeting, after receiving the Special Light and Water Con- mittee's report, had gone on record as backing up the City Council' in their efforts to secure an adjustment of differ ences with the Light & Water Company, and in as much as he | is Vice Pres. and a share holder in this company that he felt, it his duty to resign as presiding officer of the League. Capt. Mccullough was placed in the chair. Attorney c. F. Greenlee securing the floor, explained that he hadn't been attending the League meetings and wasn't present at the last meeting to hear the report of the special light and water Committee, composed of L. K. Brown. F. T. Murphy, and Jas. Grant. Not withstanding t h is Attorney Greenlee thought Mgr. Thomp- son of the Water Co.,, was doing his best, didn't deserve any criticism. etc. Attorney Green lee paid his respects" to those who are contending that the Light & Water Co.,, ought to comply with the provisions of their ordinance. but more par ticuIarly did he go after' the ARGUS for it's acton in the matter. He wanted 'em to "trow de knocker out" because of it's position on the light and water question and because it had seen fit last Fall to publish the complaint of a number of our farmers who were then forced to haul their cotton seed from Brinkley to Clarendon in order to get S20 per ton rate when Attorney Greenlee's gin wouldn't pay 'em but $14 per ton. Attorney Greenlee was very caustic in his remarks and all of the farmers and merchants of the north end should have been present in order to fully appreciate just what the news paper man has to go up against when he takes stand, in their behalf or in behalf of the entire people, as in this present Water and Light Co. agitation. MT. Greenlee concluded his remarks by insisting that Mir Chaney retain his office.
 Editor Folsom made reply to the remarks of Attorney Green lee. He stated that the League had appointed a special Con- mittee to look into the light and water situation in Brinkley for the purpose of securing some real results. That this Con- mittee was composed of fair minded competent business men, Messrs F. T. Murphy, Jas. Grant and l.. K. Brown; that they had
