The Ozark National Forest, with
headquarters in Harrison, in its re-
port tor July, shows total cut Of
4S0, 600 feet board measure, having
a value of $1,90732. Timber sold
during the same period amounts to
2,72S, 900 feet board measure, which
has total value of Sl3, 800 OF the
revenue, $5,329.10 reverts to the
state TO be expended in the couuties
in which the forest lies in road aud

National Forests the forest service
has to its credit the construction of
the first wagon bridge in Stone
county. As an example, Of the
aid to schools; Flint Ridge school
house, up to the time Of forest
revenue, had only three months of
instruction, whereas, now it has six,
and new frame building has been
constructed to replace the old log
house.
During the fiscal year ending June
80, 1915, the national forests turned
into the United States Treasury
nearly $2,500,00O an increase of
more than $4,000 over the pre-.
vious year The timber sales,
which amounted to $l,164, 600
yielded, on account of the depressed
condition of the lumber industry,
about $4,000 less than the pre-
vious year, but the gain was made
possible By large revenues from
other sources.
The grazing receipts, which total
81 ,125,0 increased 1927 900 over
last year, and the water power
receipts, which amount to not quite
$50, 600, show an Increase Of nearly
$42, 600.

Over Three Hundred Car Loads Market,
ed la Three Weeks.

I This weeks shipments of peaches
from Harrison and other near by
points on the M. & n. A. ruu the
total over three hundred cars-and
more yet to come.
Although the rains have interferred
considerably with the gathering and
packing the year has been record
breaker in peaches as in other lines,
and receipts from fruit will boost
our prosperity as never before.
I This years shipments are the
largest in the history of the section.
Last year the crop was a failure
and only SO cars were shipped, The
previous year 165 carloads were
shipped from Boone, Carol aud
Searcy counties. Eight new orch
ards, cultivated and cared for under
the latest methods, are producing
fruit this season.
In Boone county alone since an
uary 100000 peach trees have
been planted. These trees will re,
quire about Eve years to begin bear
ing, but eachyear from now on will
bring in more trees.
Movement of carload lots from
other points is estimated BY COM
peteut authorities as follows:
Highland from 700 to 500 cars;
Dardanelle, 60 cars; Rogers LIS cars;
Decatur 28 cars; and Bentonville 40
cars, Benton County which con-
tains a number of fine orchards, will
ship between 400 and 500 cars,

Democrat. Two years ago the
county produced 500 cars, and this

City Mail Delivery.
Inspector from Post 0ffics Department
To Visit hari ison Soon.

Postmaster Watkins received
notice this week that an inspector
will visit Harrison soon to go into
the details Of establishing regular
city delivery here.
Even last year the receipts of the
Office were sufficiently large to
Justify this move, but it is the policy
of the department to see that a
city'S growth is permanent.
The receipts for the year just
closed were much in excess OF the
amount an Office is required to have
before free delivery can be installed
and the continued increase shows
that there is no chance of our falling
below the mark set
1t is altogether probable that we
will get the full system of free
delivery before the end Of the present
wear.

AT directors meeting of the
Spanish LeMarr mining company
held in Harrison this week it de-
veloped that the profits of the mine
during the past six weeks of its
operation had been sufficient to pay
off an Indebtedness Of 1,100 and
leave a snug sum still in the
treasury. Much of the stock of this
mine is held in Harrison and it is
being operated under direction of
E. K. Springer. 1t is seven miles
south of Jasper and its ore is hauled
over thirty miles by wagon to
Harrison.
NEVER before in history of this
field has the faith in its merits been
demonstrated by nonresident land
owners as it is to-day-their faith is
being demonstrated by their work.

their own lands which they have
owned for years, but for the purpose
Of leasing aud mining other lands of
merit, aud mining them in a busi-
ness-like manner, Echo.
c. A. Monroe Meadows, of the
Jasper Times, who was in Harrison
Thursday, tells Of great activity in
mining and prospecting through
out Newton county, and Of good
results in almost all parts Of the
county. Regular ore shipments are
being made via Harrison from two
of Newton County's mines. E. K.
Springer from his mines ten miles
south of Jasper is marketing free
carbonate pro6itably in spite of the
long wagon haul; and Ike Kilgore,
near Ponca City, is doing likewise
with free lead with like results. With
the present activity it will not be
long until all available teams of
Newton county are busy hauling
ore.
The new mill at the Silver Hollow
made it's first run last week with
good results. Two shifts will be
worked in the mine hereafter.
