 ly because the scarcity of feed does not justify the Arkansas cattle raiser in keeping them. He is forced to sell or lose money.
 The greatest cause of this decrea SC in the number of home cattle, however. is death Cattle, like other domestic animals are heir to many diseases. Every year cattle raisers of this state lose hundreds of thousands of dollars on cattle dying from tick fever, but the most rapacious disease among Arkan. sas cattle and the one that causes more deaths than probably any other one factor, is starvation, aided more or less by last seasons tick crop.
 We say we cannot afford to buy feed for those starving animals, yet there is one resource. our credit. It would pay to mortgage those cattle to raise the price of little grain for them to eat In early summer when they have had chance to fatten we can sell these we can spare to pay off the mort gage. Two pounds of cotton seed meal per day contain more nourishment than all those bleached out stalks a COW can hold. In sixty days We shall begin to have good pastures. Twen. ty heat eat forty pounds a day Sixty days requires 2.400 pounds of cotton seed meal. Feeding that to your cat tie will leave fertilizer on your field that will cost S30.46.

Carlisle Wins One and
 Looses Two.

The Carlisle base ball team opened the season here last Thursday by winning 3 to } game from the fast Lonoke bunch. Thompson Presley who did the fireing and receiving for Carlisle had good support against Reed and Apple who held down that part of the game for Lonoke It was fast game from the start; both teams playing good ball.
 On MonCay the return game was played off at Lonoke. The Carlisle boys blossomed out in their new uniforms, which i'm proved the appearance of the team considerable, and the at. tractive ads on the backs of the suits of the different firms who furnished them attracted much attention, but failed to affect their playing much. Stauber who appeared on the mound for Carlisle failed to show his regu lar form and, also. received poor support; Lonoke winning g to 8.
 Wednesday afternoon Carlisle crossed bats with the fast Brink ley team on the home grounds. Presley who did the twirling for Carlisle received very poor sup. port; Toler let several hot ones by on third baNe, which was costly to Carlisle; Brinkley vim ing 12 to 9.
 Carlisle will play Brinkley here again to day.

ARKANSAS CATTLE DECREASE
Hunger and Disease Are Instrumental
 In Disappearance of Good Stock.

Each year witnesses a decrease in the number of Arkansas cattle. In late years the rate Of disappearance of the cattle of thiH state has become ap- palling With this fact staring him in the face the cattle raiser of Arkansas has begun to cast about for reason. He asks, why is this taking off of the best Arkansas cattle getting greater every years?"
 The answers to this question are manifold Many of the very best cat tie of the state are being sold annual

The organization, thru its size and
scope, was able to take advantage of a
choice export business this year thru
being able to prepay temporarily all
freight and insurance charges on ex-
ports, amounting to $376,361. This
also included the payment Of cold stor-
age charges, so that the fruit could be
moved from eastern cold storage. The
maximum advance OF this kind at any
one time was $4,000. This Mr..
Robbins states, was only possible thru
a cooperative plan.
In addition to financing its own tenn
porary needs the organization was able
to aid its subcentrals financially by ad-
vances OF $410,112 during the season.
Most OF this was liquidated within 80

The Sixteenth Century Carver.

At the formal banquet Of the six
teenth century the man who carved
the meat was bound with the red tape
of precedent. When carving for distin-
guished guests he had to remember
that certain parts of the birds or meat
must be set aside. In carving for his
lord and lady he was expected to exer-
else great discretion In the size of the
pieces he sent round, ''for ladies will
be soon angry and their thoughts
soon changed, and some lords are soon
pleased and some not, as they be of
complexion" He was expected to have
the rules both of the Kitchen and the
peerage at his knife's end. A pike, for
instance, must be dished up whole for
a lord and in slices for commoner folk.
The rank of his diners, too, determined
whether pig was to be served up
whole, sliced, plain or with gold leaf
or whether new bread or bread three
days old should be eaten.

SWISS MILITARY SYSTEM.
Tests All Youths Must Pass Before
They Become Soldiers.

They Become Soldiers.
The Swiss system is ultra militaristic
and probably would never be accept
able to the United States. But 1t Is
interesting, nevertheless, as indicating
how the problem of defense has been
met and apparently solved by the earn
est and patriotic people of a republic
like our own.
The Swiss system Is compulsory and
begins with the early schooling of each
boy. He does not drill or handle fire
arms, however, until he Is twenty years
old, when he reports to federal au-
thorities for physical and literary ex-
animation. He must be able to read
and write and figure, and answer ques-
lions in elemental Swiss history and
geography.
The physical tests require that the
applicant shall cover at least eight feet
in running jump, lift a weight Of
thirty-seven pounds in both hands at
least four times, and run eighty yards
In fourteen seconds.
Those who fall in these tests are
given an extension of time for further
training, not to exceed four years, and
If physically disqualified at the end
of that period they are obliged to pay
tax, or to take some assigned posi-
ton which they can fill.-Kansas City
Journal
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1915-03-19

Lord Rosebery is II great lover OF an
imals, and on one occasion he actually
went so far as to risk his life for II
favorite dog. His lordshlp was on
board a steamer when suddenly his
dog fell overheard. Much distressed
Lord Rosebery asked the captain to
stop the ship-a request which was re-
fused.
"If 1t were a man overheard said
the captain, why, then, of course
"Oh," said Lord Rosebery, that can
be easily managed" and, to the cap
tain's establishment, he leapt overheard
after the dog himself.
Naturally, the steamer was promptly
stopped, n boat was lowered with all
speed, and both dog and master were
rescued, none the worse for their eXpe-
rience.-London Tit-Bits.

BATTLES AND DoWNPoURs.
There Is No Connection Between Gum
fire and Rainstorms.

fire and Rainstorms.
So far as the records are available,
the rain accompanying or Immediately
following great battles is not unlike
that which might have been expected
In the course Of natural events, says
writer In the Popular Science Monthly.
Bearing'in mind the fact, already stat
ed, that throughout large areas rain
occurs on an average once in three or
four days and also the subjective fact
that rain associated with July cele-
brations or with battles would doubt
less not have been remembered had 1t
not been for such associations, the by
pothesis appears to have no foundation.
In 1892 the United States government
disproved the idea by experiments in
which violent explosions of dynamite
were produced within clouds by means
Of kites and balloons, with no rain fol
lowing as a direct or even as an 1ndi-
rect result. The practice, still followed
in various European countries, of at
tempting to prevent hail by lombard
ing approaching clouds or of projecting
vortex rings of smoke upward also is
without scientific basis. The relatively
feeble correctional currents resulting
from these artificial attempts to in
fiuence the weather are too meager
to have any appreciable effect upon
the massive convection accompanying
storms and are wholly inadequate to
influence precipitation.
