ture gives some interesting facts re- garding the cattle tick and it's eradi- cation. From it the following ex- tracts are taken:
 "The eradication of the tick is es- sential to the development of a sound agricultural system in the south Live stock is essential to such a sys- tenn. With the tick out of the way, the south can produce cattle free from many of the handicaps of other sections. Land is still cheap and much of it is making no money for anyone. The pasture season is long, feed can be produced at minimum

l0OSTOCKCROWERS MELT AT CONWAY WANT LIVESTOCK SHOW MEMBERS ALSO STRONGLY IN FAVOR OF ENFORCING TICK
 ERADICATION LAW.
From Mondays Daily.

About 100 live stock growers at tended a meeting of the Faulkner County Livestock Growers Associa- tion at the courthouse this morning, the gathering being the most enthusi- astic ever held by the association. ] pr. R. M. Cow, state veterinarian, who had been invited to address the meeting, was unable to be present, and the gathering resolved itself into sort of round table discussion, with 1 short talks by number of the mem bers.
 Great regret was expressed by those in attendance over the discon- tinuance of the annual Faulkner county fair and resolution was un- animously adopted favoring a live stock, poultry and agricultural ex- hibition to be held at the fair grounds this fall. A committee composed of G. w. Adkisson, chairman, Dr. T. c. Watson, J. E. Little, w. R. McHenry, J. L. Phillips and Thurston Fulmer was appointed to investigate the feasibility of such an enterprise and report to a meeting to be held Mon day, August 30, at the courthouse. It J is planned to hold the same kind Of | fair as always in regard to agricul- tural, horticultural, poultry and live stock exhibits, without the usual side shows, free attractions and profes- sional races, the only races to be those of Faulkner county horses. It is probable that admission will be free or only nominal charge made.
 Adjourning shortly before noon, the association reassembled at the Faulk- ner County Bank corner at 1:3o o'clock this afternoon, from which place the members were driven to the town farm of J. E. Little, the river planter, in the western suburbs of Conway. Here the visitors were giv- en practical demonstrations in filling silos with ensilage and in dipping cattle, and were shown Col. Little's splendid facilities for caring for live stock, an industry in which he has taken great interest during the past few years.
 At Col. Little's house about 75 stockmen and farmers were shown the process of dipping cattle and hogs Tn an arsenic bath to free them from cat tie ticks and other parasites. A herd of hogs and a small drove of cattle were driven into the vat in the pres ence of the visitors Afterwards the crowd was taken to patch of sor- ghum, where Col. Littles new har- vesting machine was at work, and then to the silo, where the green sorghum was being cut into silage and convey ed into the silo, to be kept for winter feed.
 All of the stockmen and farmers here today seem to be strongly in favor of immediately putting into eff feet the tick eradication law for this county, passed by the last legislature. Dr. T. c. Watson of Mt. Vernon, who is one of the county's strongest boosters for better stock, mentioned the death of a fine Hereford bull be- longing to Henry Keathley, who paid lS190 in Tennessee for the animal when it was a young calf, Texas or cattle tick fever causing it's death.

(Continued on Last PageJ COUNTY AUTO TAX PAYABLE IN SCRIP GENERAL MOOSE|SO HOLDS RENDERS OPINION TO SHERIFF BISHOP OF INTEREST TO
 MOTOR CAR OWNERS.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
 The one-half portion of the annual tax of S10 required for each automo. bile in Arkansas which goes into the county treasury may be paid in coun. ty scrip, according to an opinion just rendered by Attorney General Moose in response to an inquiry from Sher. if w. w. Bishop of Faulkner county The law provides that the collector shall collect S10 and shall pay one. half of the amount into the state treasury to the credit of the highway department and the other half into the county treasury. Sheriff BishoL was requested by local automobile owners to ascertain if the county's portion could not be paid in scrip and Attorney General Moose decided the IQuestion in affirmative.
 This, of course, would make no diff ference in a county which is on a cash basis, but where county scrip is sell ing for less than par it would enable the owner of a motor car to pay his annual license fee for less than SIC cash. General Moose's letter to Sher- if Bishop follows:
 Little Rock, Aug. 10, 1915. "Mr. w. w. Bishop, Sheriff, Conway,
 Ark.
 Dear Sir-I have received your letter of August 9th, asking my ad- vice as to whether you would be jus tifed in accepting county warrants upon the general funds of the coun- ty, in paying that portion of the tax on automobiles that is due the coun- ty. I think you would be justified in accepting county warrants in pay ment of the amount of the tax due the county.
 According to Section 1174 of Kir- by's Digest county warrants are re- ceivable for taxes for county pur- poses and for all debts due the coun- ty. So whether this motor-vehicle fee is a tax or a debt, it may be paid in county warrants.
 "Very truly yours,
 "Wm. L. Moose,
 Attorney General
 About 70 automobile tax receipts have already been issued in this county this year, the entire amount of which has been paid in cash, but as he has already deposited these taxes in the treasury, the cash can not be refunded and scrip accepted now. However, unless the opinion should be reversed by court decis- ion, Sheriff Bishop states that he will accept $5 in county scrip and $5 in cash in payment of automobile H. cense hereafter.

The south has shown what it can do, and it needs only stick -itiveness and optimism to add hundreds of millions of wealth an- nually in products of the soil which 1t has neglected for half a century" Dr. J. s. Martin of Martinville was here today on his way to his river farm.

"A Motor Vehicle Decision.

Judge Durham at Iowa Falls,
holds that man who operates a
motor vehicle contrary to law has
little standing in court, and direct
ed verdict in the damage case of
Corning-Maynard in the Grundy

plaintiff sought to recover $4,000 as
the result of injuries in a collision.
The defendant in the action prov
ed the plaintiff was operating his mo-

Want Rid Pigs of Lice? Easy.

Joseph Rupert Pennsylvania far
mer endeavored to exterminate lice
from. his pigs, and he nearly exter-
minated the pigs, too.
Taking torch and some coal oil,
he began the job on the lice. Aside
from few squeals, the porkers OBJ
jected not at all to having kerosene
rubbed on their hides. But in the
midst Of the greasing process, Ru-
pert's torch fell. There was flash
from the pan Of oil he was using, and
the next instant a terrified pig, en-
veloped in flames, darted for the pen.
Then the fun began. Soon half a
dozen pigs were in flames. They dart
ed from the pen, encircled the yard
a couple of times and then returned
to the pen, setting it on fire. One of
the pigs got bright idea and dashed
for pool of mud and water. The
others followed and the neighbors
will not enjoy roast pig dinner, as
they had expected.
Oh, yes. the lice were exterminat-
ed

farmer living near here, had a mar
row escape from instant death late
Thursday afternoon when his team
of horses ran into high power cleo
trio wire and were killed.
Einfeldt had enough presence of
mind to jump from the buggy with
out touching any part of it and it is
said that this saved his life A tele-
phone wire had been pulled out at
a cross arm and rested on a high
power electric wire. The telephone
wire hung suspended within a few
feet Of the ground and Einfeldt, who
was driving to town, came upon it.
When employees of the electric
light company arrived at the place
they found both horses dead and the
buggy charged. Einfeldt had escap-
ed without injury. The power was
shut off for some time while en-
ployes removed the wire.
