State Senators in their respective dis tricts when the terms for which Sena- ors shall have been elected shall ex- pire before the next general election; and for judges of the Supreme and cir cult courts when the terms 6f office of any judge shall expire before the next general election; and for United States Senators and Representatives in Congress of the United States for each Congressional District; and for Prosecuting Attorneys"
 All circuit judges with rare excep- tions qualified Oct. 31, 1914, for four years terms. Practically all of the Chancellors with few exceptions qua lifted Oct. 1912 for six year terms. All their terms will expire Oct. 31, 1918, and the law says that if the terms of office of any judge shall expire before the next general cleo tion" he shall run at the preceding election, which in this instance would be in 1916.
 Lawyers who have looked into it say the conclusion is unavoidable. At least one attorney is so thoroughly convinced of it that he has already an- nounced at Hot Springs against the incumbent, and says he will seek the nomination next March.
 One of the anomalous results of this confusion will therefore be that a candidate for circuit judge will be nominated in March, 1916, will be elected in November, 1916, and Will not take his office until Jan. 1919, three years after he made the race.
 Unless the Legislature sees fit to remedy the condition it will recur every four years.
 And so it becomes confusion worse confounded.

MORE HALF-BAkED
 LEGISLATION
Act Consolidating State With Federal ElectiOns-Att0rnev General Calls some Ablest Lawyers in State.

Little Rock, Aug. 1O.--More "half- baked legislation" of the recent Gen eral Assembly has been discovered that threatens to cause unlimited con- fusion in the judicial system of the state.
 This is the act providing for the consolidation of the state with the federal elections on November.
 It will not materially affect officers whose term is fixed by the Constitu- tlon at two years, since it is provided that they shall hold office until their successors are elected and qualified; the principal effect upon them will be that those now serving will have from one to two months longer term than fhat for which they were elected.
 Heretofore all have been elected in September and qualified Oct 31. Here after they will be elected in November and it will be 30 days before all re- turns can be canvassed and the sue cessful candidates certified. In this particular the law is also defective, since no time is specified for any of ficers to qualify. Unless by agree ment some fixed day can be agreed upon. officers in the various counties will qualify at diverse times, and the utmost confusion will result. Jan. has been suggested as a convenient date.
 But it is in the offices of circuit judge and chancellor that the genuine difficulties arise.
 The puzzle has been propounded to Attorney general Moose, and he has been calling into consultation some of the states ablest legal minds to solve it.
 It appears at this time, and this has the weight of legal authority back of it, that all the Chancellors and Circuit Judges will be forced to run in the 1916 primaries and election, al- though the circuit judges were elect ed in 191b for terms of four years and their terms do not expire until Oct. 31, 1918.
 That date, however, is before the next general election following the election of 1916.
 The law says:
 'On the next Tuesday after the first Monday in November, 1916 and every two years thereafter, there shall be held an election in each precinct and ward of this state for the election of all elective state, county and township officers whose terms of office is fixed by the Constitution at two years; and

Water Your Hens if You Want Them
 TO Lay.

In the current issue of Farm and Preside a successful poultry man gives the following advice:
 eff you do not pay attention to the water your hens have, so that they have all they want of it before them all the time, you will not get so many eggs. You may not see any difference the very next day, but in a day or two the yield will off, and stay off for several days. Just one days of water will do that.
 You have got to keep hen busy The piece of corn we plant near the seems to fill the bill. The hens can dig in the arth and pick up bugs and bits of gravl and be sheltered while doing their work.
 "'The more you call them the more scared they are. If you just go along auitely they won't notice you
 "New men new ways new methods are disturbing factors. All changes need to be gradually introduced. All frights are followed by dropping off of eggs"

|SNJNE SPREAD FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE
Now Outbreak Emphasizes Need of Careful Inspection by the Farmers and StOckraisers.- Not Easily Detected.

Washington. D. C., Aug. 10.-The susceptibility of swine to the foot-and ,,,outh disease and the failure on the
 ,ort of swine owners to recognize it's svmptoms are giving the Federal au- |thorities no small amount of worry in Their cleanup" campaign.
 Sore mouth, a common indication of tbe disease, is an ordinary sequence of hoe cholera, and consusions on the the feet are frequent in swine which have |been driven or shipped. For these reasons little attention is paid by the owners of swine to these symptoms, and unless the herd is located within Suspicious territory foot-and-mouth disease may continue in a chronic Horn for a considerable length of time before discovery. The danger of course lies in the ability of these ami mals to disseminate the disease.
 Since the first case of foot-and- mouth disease in a herd of hogs in Michigan, which later permitted the |infection of the Chicago Stock Yards, |hogs more than any other animal have been responsible for the spread of the disease. A few months ago, in the outskirts of Philadelphia. in a district containing close to 10000 swine kept in small lots, several thousand were Hound to be infected.
 On July 29 foot-and-mouth disease Iinfecton was discovered to exist in herd of 20 cattle within the city limits of Homell, Steuben County, New York. Another herd of 20 cattle, paStured across the road from these, has been exposed and is under surveil- lance. As no know cases of the dis lease had previously been found withi m radius of over 75 miles, the source | of the infection remained a mystery until two days later, when 125 swine dvlded among five herds, were found lntected within a half mile of the hrst-discovered premises. These swine had evidently had the disease m mild form for considerable
 enggth of time Infection had been |carrled from these to the cattle through drainage.
 This again emphasizes the need the authorities state, for continued care lul examination of all live stock in previously infected areas, especially lafge herds of swine. Farmers and s.Ock rasers by giving immediate mo- uce Of any suspicious cases to the nearest health officer will greatly aid 'ne authorities in their effort to eli

inmate this pest, which if allowed to gain foothold would result in untold damage to the nation.
 Owing to the fact that few animals are shipped from the section in which the latest outbreak occurred, it is be- lieved that no serious or widespread complications will result from this new center of infection.
