All went well until it became necessary to send the

for it but TO give the whole costume TO younger and

Of ivory white toile Rationale. The design was quite
simple but the general effect admirable In front the
round skirt in pleats and it boosted two large
side pockets worked over with washing silks IN subtle

The little coatee had tiny basque and a suede belt

were side pockets on the fronts Of the coatee and 1t
opened over white muslin chemisette which had

MANY BUSHELS OF
 R|CE IN ARKANSAS
100000 ACRES PLANTED THIS YEAR AND THE YIELD ABOUT
 45.6 BUSHELS PER ACRE.
$5,OOO,OOO IS INVESTED
The Average Cost of Farming Is $50 Der Acre, Declares

Stuttgart

Stuttgart
 That the Arkansas acreage of rice this year will be about 100000 acres and the yield about 45.6 bushels per acre, is the estimate of w. c. Sand CTS of the Southern Rice Growers As sociation. Writing to John H. Page, commissioner of mines, manufactures and agriculture, from Stuttgart, MT. Sanders says:
 Replying to your recent favor we are glad to give you the information requested to the best of our ability; however, would ask you to compare our statements with others you may receive.
 We are placing the Arkansas acre. age of rice at 100000.
 "Estimated yield for Arkansas, based on last years crop for rice, 45.6 bushels per acre. This is over what Arkansas will average year in and year out by fully five bushels per acre-laSt year was exceptional.
 We would estimate the amount as invested in the rice business in Ar kansas, including machinery, at five million dollars; in other words, it costs $50 per acre to fully equip raw land-well, machinery, livestock, etc.
 There are six mills in Arkansas proper, and we count the Memphis, Tenn, mill as Arkansas territory. Each of the six mills will average 800 barrels a day of F hours.
 "The average cost of production of rice in Arkansas is $25 per acre, from blowing the ground to delivery at mills. They get from $40 to $60 per acre. Like in all other business some rice farmers are becoming i,n- mensely rich and some are going broke each year; it depends upon the man behind the gun as to profits. Leakage is pretty heavy where pros perity is not fully understood and dp- preeiated."

 Many Arkansans are in danger of being penaliZed for nonpayment of revenue and income taxes, and prose- cution for violation of the Harrison anti-drug act, according to officials of the internal revenue office. The final date for the payment of taxes and securing licenses to do business dur ing the next tscal year is June 90 Up to date the collections have been very small
 Of 1000 persons in Arkansas sub ject to the special revenue tax, only 1000 have paid. Of 5000 persons or companies subject to taxation under the Harrison anti-drug act, only l. poration and individual income taxes which this year will amount to about $200,000 less than 10 per cent has been paid.
 If all who have not yet paid wait until the last few days to pay their taxes. it will be impossible to attend to them, according to Jack Walker, revenue collector. Notices have been sent to individuals and corporations in time to allow payment before June 30
 In the case of druggists and physi- cians who handle narcotics, the tax must be paid early enough to allow the issuance and return of, the li- censes to them. If they wait until there is not time to do this, they will be subject to prosecution for violation of the act, which provides that with out license, they cannot even keep tile narcotics in stock
 Tobacco dealers, poolrooms, thea ters and other individuals or classes of business subject to the emergency tax, will be required to close after June 30, if their tax is not paid, until they secure licenses.

Unless the participating rates for merly in force between the Frisco and Iron Mountain railroads and the Black and White River Transporta- tion Company and other boat lines are restored the lumber industry on the upper Black and White rivers will be suspended, according to testimony before the Interstate Commerce Com mission last week by H. M. Gregory, rate clerk of the Arkansas Railroad Commission. The testimony was given at Newport before a hearing on petition from shippers of the region, asking that the participating rates be re-established.
 The participating rates were estab- lished in March, 1909. Under the tariff the rates from any point on the rivers was as follows: St Louis, 1Sc per 100; Thebes, H., 16c per 100; Memphis, 14c per 100. In June, 1869, these rates were reduced 1 per cent per 100 pounds. In January, 1911, the rates were raised to the former standard, and last year the participat- ing rates were withdrawn, and some rates made to apply on shipments from Newport and other railroad points on the rivers. This caused shippers from the upper basins of the rivers to add cents per 100 pounds to the freight rates for river transpor- tation to points of delivery to the rail- roads. As Q result, they have been unable to compete with other indus tries enjoying lower rates, and many have been forced to suspend opera tion, MT. Gregory said. He said that the territory affected covers 300 square miles and includes 117,000 acres or 142.000 carloads of uncut timber. The cutting of tliis timber would open up many thousand acres Of fine farming land, he said
