CONCRETE DIPPING VATS
The Most Practical Method For Tick
 Eradication

The most practical method for tick eradication in Arkansas is the use of the concrete dipping vat and the svs- tematic dipping of cattle. Immediate. ly after county is placed in the ticl; eradication district, from 25 to 10 dipping vats are built in various sec. tions of the county. The vats are lo- cated so that cattle will not have to be driven more than three miles 10 be dipped
 Cattle are allowed free range and are not quarantined in pastures. but every three weeks during the summer season they are dipped at a designated vat Where the majority of people want to eradicate the tick it only takes about two years to clean a cour., ty, however. it can be done quicker. The only reason for taking two years is that with some cattle owners m- different or hostile cattle are often hard to find on the range.
 The system of constructing dipping vats and the systematic dipping of cattle has passed beyond the experi- mental stage. In Arkansas the sve- tematic dipping of cattle was frst tried by the writer in Newton county. The cattle were allowed the freq range and were dipped every tbrea

LEGAL POINT OF IMPORTANCE
Exclusions" Sufficient to Cause the Breaking of Will Must Be Along
 a Certain Line.

The New York Law Journal tells of two cases recently decided which are of some interest upon the contention quite frequently made that testators were victims of insane delusio1s," when, in fact, they had merely i'm bibed false impressions or were strongly prejudiced or eccentric in their modes of thought In re Alex ander's estate in the supreme court of Pennsylvania. it was laid down that a "delusion' of testator, such as will invalidate a will, must be an insane belief or a mere tigment of imagination-a belief in the existence of something which does not exist and which no rational person, in the ab- sence of evidence, would believe to exist" It was further laid down that the burden is on a party relying on the existence of a delusion to inyali- date a will to prove that such delusion controlled the testator's volition and destroyed his freedom of action in disposing of his estate. The evidence was held insufficient to show that the will was executed in consequence of an insane delusion on the part of the testator, the petitioners father, though testatOr practically disinherit- ed her and may have been mistaken in his judgment that she had been guilty of unnatural conduct toward him and her mother.

first week in March in northern Ar. kansas.
 The seed bed should be thoroughly broken and firmly settled The use of the disk harrow and sec tion harrow before seeding leaves the seed bed in ideal condition, Seeding with a drill instead of broadcast, according to the results of various experiment stations gives an increased yield ranging from two to four bushels.
 Tests carried for five years at the Arkansas Experiment Station, in dicate that seeding spring oats at the rate of two and one-half to three bushels to the acre gives best and most economical returns. More seed is required for seeding broadcast than with a drill, and no less thar three bushels should be sown in this way.
 Spring varieties adapted to the state are characterized by earliness in ma turity. Northern varieties as a rule are later maturing, rust badly, produce considerable straw, and do not fill out well. Results Of variety test at the Arkansas station have shown that Burt oats lead in yield among spring varieties. This oat is of light dun color and has a slender bearded grain The Red Rust Proof variety with its various StrainS-Appler and Texas Red-also give satisfactory results Early yellow rat5-Kherson and Six ty Day-do fairly well in north AT kansas.

WHAT? OATS? COTTON?
 PROSPERITY? PANiCS ?
The Farmer Must Bear the Loss or Receive the Profits-Spring Oats Is An Emergency Crop.

In choosing crops to replace cotton :t is important that Arkansas farmers first select those crops which will aid in supplying grain and forage for home consumption. Where no winter oats have been sown spring oats should by all means be given a place.
 To make the greatest success with spring oats the seed should be sown as early in the spring as possible. This will vary from the first part of February in southern Arkansas to the

New York; not all the circular letters that can

TO PREVENT UNHAPP1NEss.

- 2 ~ =. .EF
A court of domestic relations. such as pro
posed at a meeting today of public-spirited men
and women of Honolulu, should be of very
great value to Hawaii AS is well stated, it
would aim at corrective and preventive action
rather than punishment; it would attempt
definitely to prevent divorces by reconciling
the parties; it would deal early and in a broad
way with the marital troubles such as now get
on court calendars usually at stage when
reconciliation is impossible.
Such court would carry further the splen-
did work that Judge Whitney has been deyel-
oping.
A year ago the Star-Bulletin commented
upon the experiment IN Chicago of court
along the lines proposed for Honolulu. We
are reliably informed that the Chicago expert
ment is working out so successfully as to make
it valuable precedent.

No proof whatever could be adduced to show

either of news or of news handling In the very
nature Of news, it is impossible to secure q
monopoly of it, and there is not city in the
country where rival news furnishing compan-

poses or those with an axe to grind.
