 ING FOR MEMBERS
Set 5000 as Number to be At
 tained-State Divided into Dis tricts, Systematically Worked. Headquarters at Little Rock.

Little Rock, July 16.-Never before has any frat2rnal organization made such a campaign as that which is now being carriel on in Arkansas by the A. o. U. w. for membership. It has set 5000 as the number to be attained and the state has been divided into districts and is being systematically worked by deputies. H. L. Cross, the Grand Recorder, who came to Little Rock from his home at Bentonville, establishing his headquarters here so that he may the better conduct the campaign, says: "The year 1915 pro mises to be the greatest year this A.. o. U. w. Jurisdiction has ever wit messed, and surely every member should rejoice over the really remark able work that is being done by the A. O. U. w. members in Arkansas. Progress has been made such as we have been longing to see for many years, and wo are especially proud of tn fact that there are more A. o. U. w. members in this state now than there has been at any time since July, 1903, and before 1915 is over we will have more members than were ever in Arkansas before"

tions, which was explained to the ac- countants."
 The Atorney-general explains the items about trips taken by himself and assistants, on state business, and says;
 "The Chairman of the committee must have known about some of the trips, because he had talked with the Attorney-gencral and the assistant on the subject and he could have known exactly the reasons why each of these trips was tken, and in what respect the public had interest in it. The committee apparently wanted no in formation except upon points which would reflect upon the integrity of the office"
 Other charges are also answered and refuted.

THE COMMERCIAL
 GRADING OF CORN
Grades Fixed by The Secretary of Agriculture Widely Adopted
 New Department Bulletin How to Determine the Grades.

Washingtor D. C., July 16.-The grades for commercial corn which were promulgated by the Secretry of Agriculture on January 3, 1914, and which went into effect on July l. 1914 have been generally adopted through out the corn belt and in the cities in that part of the United States and at the Gulf ports, but are not in use in the cities along the Atlantic sea- board. The grades include the classi- fication of white, yellow and mixed corn into six grades and Sample" and have been recognized by the Grain Dealers National Association, the State associations affiliated with this organization, the State grain inspec- tion departments of Washington, Min nesota, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Ok lahoma, and the Department of Ag- riculture, Commerce, and Industries of the State of South Carolina.
 In order that the producers. dealers and consumes throughout the United States may more fully understand the correct Interpretation of the Govern ment corn grades, somewhat detiled explanations are given in the new bull letin of the United States Department of Agriculture, No. 168, Grades for Commercial Corn. The classification which was made by the Secretary and became effective July 1, 1914, divided commercial corn into 6 classes and sample" the classification being bas- ed on the moisture content of the corn, the color, the amount of damage, for eign material and cracked corn. It also included II general rules for making this classification. Necessar- lily even with the definite limits for the more important factors, points will arise on which the best exports may differ. For this reason, the bulletin gives someWl at in detail methods of securing a representtive sample from bulk corn, mixing samples for detaii- ed analyses, the size of samples, siev- .es for screening, moisture tests, de- termining the amount of damage of corn, foreign material and cracked corn. It also includes a color plate which represents, as nearly as possi- ble, the various types of kernels from the standpoint of color. This bulletin may be had free upon application to the United States Department of Ag- riculture, Washington, D. C., as long as the supply lasts.

AND
GEIER SERENADE
THE WATERFRONT

Repair work on the lifting .scows
and the dredge Gaylord and the prep-
aratfon OF gear to he used in salvage
work, is the sum total of operations on
the FL job today. At the navy dock
a small army of skilled workmen are
busy putting the finishing touches on
the machinery with which it is ex-
pected the sunken submarine will be
eventually raised.
This afternoon the new compressor
brought up from the Pearl Harbor
naval station, will be installed on the
dredge Gaylord, and everything put
in readiness to apply the salvage hose,
by which it is hoped some hundred
tons of water can be forced from the
sunken boat. The diving. crew under
the direction of Chief Gunner Still
son, is ready to resume operations
whenever the call comes from the of
ficers in charge of the salvage work.
Diver Loughman, who nearly lost
his life two weeks ago, when his line
became fouled 225 feet below the sur
face, is well on the road to recovery.
He is able to sit up and converse
with his companions, and although it
is highly improbable that he will be
in shape to do any more diving for
many months to come, he is absolute
ly out of danger now.
The cruiser Maryland has returned
to the navy dock, being on the Eva
side this time. This side of the dock
is longer, and the berth far better
suited to the big armored cruiser. 49,
Last night there was a hands

band started to play at
about $50 o'clock AS soon as the
first piece was finished, the men of
the Geier cut loose with some real
cheering, and the Geier's band fur

applause, and for two hours the ships

front. The singing of the German
sailors was a special feature of the
