ELK CONTENTION
 IS DECLARED OFF
PINE BLUFF WILL ENTERTAIN THE CONVENTION FOLLOWING
 YEAR AS SCHEDULED.
Several Reasons Assigned Why the Elks Win Not Hold Their Regular Annual Convention This Year as Heretofore.

Pine Bluff. Aprn 24-The anuua. reunion of Arkansas Elks scheduled 10 be held in Pine Bluff on May l9 and 20 in connection with the meeting of the state association was called off by the executive committee. N J. Can't Jr., state president. made this announcement ths afternoon which will be like a bomb exploded in the ranks of local Elbs Coming on the heels Of hard winter the executive committee feels like .t would be q burden upon the vsrious lodges to hire bands, purchase parade uniforms and upon the individual members 10 attend the reunion.
 The proposed big time will resolve itself into a mere business session by tIe executive committee and a num- Der of of delegates However, the 1916 reunion and state meeting will be held in Pine Bluff.
 The proposition of calling of the re- union has been discussed for several days, but few local members knew t. Pine Bluff Elks voted practically unanimously to arrange to take care of the meeting despite the loss of their home and meeting place.
 Dr. H H. Smiley, or TeXarkana, a. member of the executive committee, and Gus Bemmel of Little Rock, vice president of the state as ociation, att tended the Shriners' meeting last night President Can't talked over the matter With them and today talk ed over long distance to James Ginuo- chic of Little Rock. another member of the executive committee. All three were Of the opinion that it was best 10 postpone the reunion for a year

THAT LEAGUE ELECTION.

Unless there can be interest stirred in an election of the officers of a com. mercial organization, certainly little of effectiveness can be expected of that organization after it's officers are elected-and with this in mind, con Nderable attention should be given to tie election of the officers of the Business Mems League for the com ing year.
 This should not be a prejudiced ri. yalry, but the places within the ranks of the single business organization of the city should be sought as an honor.
 There is but a single organization of this kind here. The Chamber cf Commerce went ont of existence some time last winter when its last att tempt at sort of reorganization seemed to be taking foot. Since that time the League has changed it's con- stitution, and is working on a broad CT scale to meet all local demands.
 The former members of the Cham. Der of Commerce should become mem. bers Of the Business Mems League at an early date, and thereby have a voice in the selection of the officers for the coming year. They can mol do so otherwise.
 A single commercial body in Hot Springs ought to have at least 50O aggressive members. This does not mean mere contributing members, but members who will answer the call, and get out and work for the upbuilding of their city through such an organization. If this is possible, and it should be even probable, some bigger and better things can be work. ed out for this city.
 Again there is suggested that stere- otyped thought that a city can not stand still. When it becomes inact. i've 1t is going back.
 Hot Springs has had some jolts. it is true, but then just such setbacks and disappointments sometimes are necessary to show the mettle of cit. izenship
 From Washington within the com. ing year this resort should have some attention. There is no better way to be certain of this result than to work through 6 solid organization of busi ness men. If we get what we are en titled to get here, soon there will be

ANOTHER INVESTIGATION.

State investigatous are becoming quite popular and in order for them to be effective they should extend al the way down the line.
 For misunderstanding the session of the legislature, according to sworn evidence of Captain R. R. Rice. Gov ernor Hays called the latter to his office one day and told him that "that old one armed Ben Griffin is about to introduce a resolution to make public the names of the people who gave me and my wife our auto mobile"
 The Ben Griffin resolution was squelched. There was a reason, and the reason emanated from the com plaint of Governor Hays Who did give the governor a handsome touring car? And why was 1t given?
 Who paid the expenses of the gov. ernor on the California iunket, and why? The election of Hays cost a whole lot of money, much more, it is said than the Camden circuit judge had when he started out to be gov ernor. Where did that money come from? Who put it mp, and why were there some who were anxious that Hays be governor?
 Was anybody particularly interest ed in Hays election from Camden aside from himself? Who? And why?
 Were any unusual pardons granted during the tenure of Hays as gover nor? If so, who were pardoned. and why?
 Investigations are effective only when they extend all the way down the line. Governor Hays talks about proclamations for paying for further probes. That is all right, but the probe should go into the affairs of the chief executive if there is any talk in. Tdicabing that the office should be probed, and the sworn evidence of Captain Rice as to what investigation was squelched by the governor dur. ing the legislative session, should be next in line for publicity.

The ideal location for most varie-

For the standard sorts set the trees
not closer than 30 feet apart each

them too close together, which great

PRUNING GRAPE VINES EARLY
Comparatively Easy Matter to Deter

Grape vines that were not pruned

the vines are pruned in the spring the
better, as the grape vine 'bleeds bad

production.
AS the grape produces its fruit at
the first four or five Joints on new
growth arising from wood produced

paratively easy matter, with the fore
going fact in mind, TO determine
about how much OF the old wood to

ty to forty buds viii be enough to
provide for the seasons growth. A
greater number of buds will likely
result in more fruit clusters Of an
inferior quality.
If the fruiting wood shows a ten
dency to grow farther away from the
main trunk, good vigorous shoot
arising from near the base of the vine
or near the head should be left to re-
new the fruiting area the coming
year.
Too little pruning rather than too
much is the common fault in grape
culture. While to the average person
not experienced in such matters, the
removal of so large a portion of the
vine may seem wasteful and injurious,
nevertheless, it is a necessity in sue.

Deception Among Tree Dealers.

In purchasing trees to plant bear in
mind that there is much deception
among tree dealers. Many agents
come along representing this or that
nursery; but it is better to buy Of
some nursery direct that has long had
a reputation for fair dealing. Decep-
ton is so easy in trees, because 1t is
almost impossible, to determine the
quality or variety until long after the
planting has been done, which gives
the seller ample time to clear out of
the country or quit business. hence
1t is impossible to compel him to
make amends.
