BENJAMIN F. BUSH RECEIVER FOR RAILROAD SYSTEM WITH
 LINES IN ARKANSAS.
IS ATTEMPT TO REORGANIzE
Other Plans Failed-Assurance That Working Conditions Will Not Be Disturbed By Change-Pro-
 ceedings Agreed To.

Little Rock. That the receivership of the Mis- souri Pacific and of the St Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Railways will have little effect, if any, in Arkansas is the general opinion being expressed. Assurances have already been receiy- ed that the Argenta shops will not be affected.
 Benjamin F. Bush, president and chairman of the boards of the Missou- ri Pacific and of the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern railways, was appointed sole receiver of the two lines.

 The receivership proceedings were agreed to because of the refusal of some of the security holders to agree to the reorganization plan recently announced It is hoped under the pro- lection of the federal court to bring about reorganization

The great possibilities of low-priced Arkansas lands for grain production have been effectively proved by re suits at the railroad demonstration farm at Hope with both wheat and cats during the past year The wheat yields averaged 29 bushels per acre and oats 64 bushels per acre. A test field put in for comparison of Fulgrum cats and winter turf oats showed a yield of 77 bushels per acre of the Fulgrum oats and 91 bushels per acre of the winter turf oats Other fields or winter turf oats yielded, respective ly, S6 bushels per acre, 70 bushels per acre, GA bushels per acre. The lowest yield was 51 bushels per acre. The demonstration farm was started at this place three years ago on piece of land that had been in cotton over 50 years and which was practically worn out. The yields mentioned were made under practical farm conditions and methods, therefore show what can be done even on exhausted land. Al ter charging up rent on land, expense of labor, etc, the grain crop of the Hope farm shows net profit of $14.50 per acre, which is more than the land was worth three years ago, when dem onstration farm work was started.

The State Highway Commission an- nounced that it's contingent fund, out of which the costs of road surveys and estimates is paid, is exhausted and that seven surveyors and draftsmen employed by the commission since March have been released. The only force now available to attend to sur veys consists of the state highway en- gineer and assistant. Their salaries were provided for in the appropriation for the Department of State Lands, Highways and Improvements. The to- tai appropriation for the department made by the last legislature was $49,- GOO, or $16000 less than in 1913. The contingent fund was cut from $12,500 to S5,000. The fact that requests for road surveys have been quadrupled since the passage of the Alexander road law caused the rapid exhaustion of the contingent fund, according to officials At present q requests from F counties, asking for surveys of 45S miles of new road, are on file with Hugh R. Carter, state highway engi- neer.

Several Little Rock bankers who at tended the meeting of Southern bank CTS in Galveston, Tex, returned home enthusiastic over results accomplished at the meeting.
 Representative bankers from eight cotton growing states pledged them selves to stand behind the producers in an effort to secure fair and uni form price for cotton, and in this they were pledged the support of the four Southern federal reserve banks.
 The means by which it is proposed to secure to the producers fair price is the gradual marketing of cotton. The bankers have agreed to advance money to the farmers on cotton secur- ities and the federal reserve banks representatives agreed to rediscount this paper. Thus they hope to offer no more cotton than the market will instantly absorb.
