In reply TO a query from Helena,
asking what the Little Rock clubs pro-
posed doing after the statewide pro
hibition law becomes effective Jan
uary l, it can be stated that all the
clubs, including the Elks, Eagles,
Quapaw, Concordia, etc, will dis.
pense with their grill departments al
together after January l. Under the
Arkansas statute II is made felony
to manufacture. sell or give away any
intoxicating liquors after the end OF
this year. The give away" feature OF
the law will prevent clubs from main
tanning private lockers for the use OF
their members. The majority OF the
clubs some time ago adopted resolu
tions to quit handling intoxicating IL
quors Of all kinds when the new law
becomes effective. The Arkansas
prohibition law is said to be the most
drastic in the country, as 1t provides
for a three-year term in the peniten
tiary for each violation, besides courts
have power to order the seizure or all
liquor found on premises after next
New Years. Some OF the lawyers
claim that this will not prevent peo
pie from having liquors in their pri
vate homes, but all of the attorneys
are agreed that under the law it can
not be given or served to guests
There are several other very drastic
sections in the law, which would
make it very unpopular with the vot
ers II the event its repeal is sub
mitted at the next general election
under the initiative and referendum
amendment to the constitution.

INCREASE SHOWN IN HAY AND
GRAIN, BUT SHORTAGE IN
COTTON.
MILD FALL IS BENEFICIAL
Claims II Farmers Can Save and Get
Full Benefit Of Crops They Have
Raised, 1915 Will Be Recorded
as the Banner Year.
Little Rock

Little Rock
State Agricultural Commissioner
John II. Page, in his weekly letter TO
the farmers of Arkansas, makes valu-
able suggestions on the important sub
ject of saving the crops after they
are harvested. He says:
Arkansas farmers have just finish
ed gathering probably the largest
crop in the history of the state, bulk
considered II the final figures show
a shortage in cotton, they also will
show an increase in hay and grain.
The mild fall weather has prolonged
the growing season, especially for
garden stuff and pastures, and has
made it possible for the farmer to har-
vest clean his fields. The barns are
full, the pantries are full and the hay
stacks are bulging.
Winter approaches now and bad
weather may be expected. The far
mer who has worked hard to make mis-
crops should see that they are safe
guarded from the elements so that he
may enjoy them. Feedstuffs should
be stored above all things, in a dry
shelter and where they will be con-
venient for use. The potatoes, OF
which there is a splendid crop this
year, should be housed where they
will be safe from freezing, and there
should be protection for the stock,
which is the motive power and meat
and butter Of the farm.
Southern farmers often have been
lectured to about the careless man
ner in which their cotton is stored
through the winter. Millions Of dol
lars have been lost each year through
weather damage to this great staple.
If Arkansas farmers can save and
get the full benefit of the crops they
have raised, 1915 will be recorded as
one of the fattest years in history. 1t
cannot be said that Providence has
not favored the grower in the work Of
the harvest Let us make the most OF
our good years and hope there will be
more Of them.

HENRY FORD IS
A CLOWN, SAYS
A. B. PARKER

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-Former Judge
Alton B. Parker issued a typewriter
statement here concerning the sail
ing of the Ford peace party. He said:
IF we could only be sure that all
other nations would estimate him as
we do-as a clown strutting the stage
for little time-no harm would come
of it,"
The statement follows:
In common with many others,
have deemed it impossible that an I'M
Informed man, exploited by those who
would fatten on his millions, would
venture abroad proclaiming the right
to speak for our people in a critical
International situation We are now
confronted with the sailing of Mr. Ford
and his party and he still persists
The time has come for the people to
let him know that under our govern
ment the president is authorized by
tie people to speak for them, or desig-
nate who shall.
"Ford's ignorance and conceit en-
boldened him to seek the honor and
power of such a designation, coupled
with the presidents blessing, which,
according to Ford, was denied him.
Still he persists, and at last has
secured the blessing of former cab
met member, which he has published
broadcast.
IF We could only be sure that all
other nations would estimate him as
we do-as clown strutting on the
stage for little while-no harm could
come of it, but we have no such assur-
ance. The chances are that his antics
Will be taken seriously and that they
will tend to bring US into contempt, if
rot hatred
His program of summoning the
troops from the trenches by wireless
il leading to serious discussion abroad.
The possibilities of worse absurdities
IL the near future is shown by the
antics and mouthings of the past two
weeks. The people and press of this |
country should tell him to stay at
home and the government should re-
woke his passport and those of his !
guests
