POTASH FIND IN
 CARROLL COUNTY

Little Rock, August 17.-About the time that the European war threatens to put the fertilizer manufacturers out of business, just because the worlds supply of potash comes from Germany, along comes Arkansas to the rescue and reports the discovery of sufficient quantity to supply the world. The discovery was made in Carol county, in the vicinity of Ber- ryville.
 According to reports that have come to Little Rock, the discoverers are men in the employ of Kansas City capitalists, who have for months beer hauling supplies and heavy machin cry to the mines, but who decline tt make public any information concern ing the extent of the discovery, or th' purity of the mineral.
 If the reports are borne out b! facts, the mine will be one fthe bl! industries of Arkansas, and probabl. better than had gold been discovere' in the state.

RAIL CRIBS FOR CORN.

It is not necessary to build elab- crate corn cribs. Set good posts, eX- tending two feet above the ground, put inverted tin pans on top ot the posts and then build a rail crib Ii no other good material is at hand and put in a floor with boards lad one inch apart. Build up about lo or 12 feet and cover with boards and then build another. Or lay out a larger crib base, fatten ends ot ralls with a sharp axe or adz and nall ends to upright posts or poles ana extend the crib for two or more rall lengths. But make no wider than a rail length. Protect on north side Ii possible by putting crib near build ing and then cover. Of course a much better and more permanent corn crib can be built, but this is cheap crib for small farm. But build crib of some kind, and build 1t thlS month.

From Saturdays Daid.
 Rev. Otto Wilmington, pastor of the First Baptist church at Conway, re- turned to his home here last night from Holland, where he has been con- ducting a revival meeting for the past two weeks. The meeting was un- usually successful, there being more than 70 conversions and about 50 additions to the church. It closed somewhat earlier than expected, on account of Rev. Wilmington receiving a message that his father, J. W. Whit ington of Waldron, was seriously i'll. A later message today states that Mr. Wilmington is better, and Rev. Wilmington will not leave to visit him until Monday.
 Rev. Wilmington will conduct the usual morning and evening services at the Baptist church here tomorrow and all are cordially invited to be present.

BUT FIVE LIVING
 tX-COvERNORS
FEW EXECUTIVES ALIVE
OZRA HADLEY, FORMER GOV- ERNOR OF ARKANSAS DIED
 IN CALIFORNIA.

Little Rock, Aug. 13.-The death of Ozra Hadley in Los Angeles, Calif., a few days ago, at the ad- vanced age of 90 years, leaves only five surviving ex-governors of Ar kansas. They are:
 J. P. Clarke, 1S94-1896.
 Dan w. Jones, I896-19O0, Little Rock.
 John $. Little, Greenwood.
 George W. Donaghey, 1908-1912, Little Rock.
 Joe T. Robinson, 1914, Lonoke.
 Aside from these there are a num- Der of surviving acting governors, years. Among these who have at various times temporarily occupied the governors chair, in the absence or disqualification of the regular gov ernor, and who are now living are: C. c. Hamby, Clay Sloan, J. c. Pin- nix, J. c. South, M. P. Huddleston, O. N. Killough, Jno. P. Lee, John I. Moore, X. o. Pendall, Allen H. Ham, iter, James T. Robertson and w. c. Rodgers. Among the acting governors who have died in recent years are: D. E. Barker, J. c. Tappan, R. L. Lawrence and J. M. Martin.
 Ozra Hadley was remembered by only the older residents of the state as he had not been resident of Little Rock since 1881, at which time a term as postmaster of this city ex- pired. His occupany of the governors chair dated back to 1871, when he succeeded Powel Clayton, who had just been elected to the United States senate Therefore his connection with Arkansas politics dated back to a time before majority of those who now do the voting were born.
 The fact that there are so few sur- viving ex-governors, just as there are very few ex-presidents, is due to the fact that as rule man is mature, or even verging onto the uncertain ground past middle age, when he is elected governor or president. Then too, the duties, responsibilities and worries of high executive office are so great that few can stand the strain. But there are very few who would be unwilling to undertake it.

JOHN REEVES OUT
 FOR COUNTY CLERK

From Saturdays Dailq.
 Positive confirmation of the report that he would be a candidate for county and probate clerk of Faulk- ner county at the next primary was given the Log Cabin Democrat today by John Reeves, well known young teacher of Conway. Mir. Reeves said he will certainly be in the race and will make his formal announcement at the proper time. He leaves to- morrow for Adona, to complete a summer school which he was forced to leave on account of illness in his family.
 This makes three avowed candl- dates for the office of county clerk with a probability of two or more others entering. County Examiner J, M. c. Vaughter and Roy Rogers of Conway have informed their friends that they will be in the race, and it is considered very probable that Coun, ty Clerk J. A. Lea will seek re-elec- tion, although he has not yet definite lv made a statement to that effect Former Tax Assessor w. N. Jones has also been mentioned as probable candidate.

COST OF MAKING
 SHELLS FOR FRANCE
Correspondents of the Associated
 PreSS)

Correspondence of the Associated
 Press)
 PARIS, Oct. 27.-The French shell makers have had some difficulty in obtaining the necessary quantities of steel suitable for projectiles. The largest iron-producing region is in German occupation, and home pro- duction has had to be supplemented by orders abroad, chiefly in the United States. Besides ordering their steel in the United States, the French shell manufacturers have also bought there most of their hydraulic ma, chimes for shell forging. Most of the shells ordered for France in America have been unfinished the finishing of them being committed to French in- dustry with the object of helping out the small manufacturer who would otherwise be idle and whose works are not equipped for the production of the shell from start to finish.
 The cost of producing shells nas been greatly reduced since the war began, by the immense scale on which they are produced and by the use of the most modern machine tools i'm ported from the United States The price paid for the 3-inch shells at the beginning of the war was equivalent to $7.60. This price has been reduced by one-third. American makers of large size calibres are, it is under stood, receiving for 6-inch shells about $10 apiece.
 These prices are for unloaded shells; the charging of them is not trusted to the makers from the pri- vate contractors, but is done in the private arsenals. All these shells must be made with extreme precision for long range work but for short range to pitch shells at the trenches from half mile to miles old guns can be used and castiron shells.
