Any change from a one-oron tenn to one of diversified farmine ' sure to be accompanied or folloSes by mistakes, but so far most oY +ha which have been made in Arkons can be remedied," said E. !. Roama~ chairman of the Arkansas Proftah,o Farming Committee He had ins. been told of report from .Taal,so. County that farmers have diyersifos and are confronted with a lack as market for their products.
 The report was to the effect th.. the farmers have much grain and bas. and hundreds of bushels of Irish nota toes on hand which they cannot son It is said that farmers organizad marketing associations but too lato to help them dispose of their noto to crops.
 There will be no trouble in sacrr ing market for the grain,' MT. Bod. man said. One firm in Arkansas tbo Philadelphia Milling Company. bas announced publicly that it will buy all
  the Arkansas wheat offered for saIo at current market prices, and there is no scarcity of markets for other grains. The complaint that hay can. not be sold is the first I have heard from any part of the state, and 2 market can be found for this.
 Selling potatoes is different pron. osition. Before the profitable farm. ing campaign began, the government issued bulletins advising against the cultivation of potatoes on a largo scale because of the large amount left over from last year. The agricultur. ists engaged in the campaign gave this advice to Arkansas farmers and the press of the state did likewise. Far. mers were urged not to cultivate Der. ishable crops on a large scale, but tn plant grains and hay and other crops that would be staple and not deterio- rate if held"

The Arkansas Railroad Commission will make no effort to restore a two cent passenger rate on the Frisco and the Kansas City Southern Railroads, now charging three cents, it was all- nounced here, though the new freight tariffs which were made effective by the two roads were declared unrea- sonable in the federal district court.

The Kansas City Southern had agreed to permit the decisions in the Frisco suit to govern the disposition of it's own case.
 The hearing to perpetually enjoin the Arkansas Railroad Commission from putting into effect it's own tarirfs will be held in St. Louis in the cir cult court of appeals December IL. Though the Frisco tariff, in effect from April 29 until August l, when the court tariff will become effective was declared unreasonable, no re- funds will be exacted of the road.

Prof. B. A. Spradling of Cotter, county examiner of Baxter county and president of the Mountain Home College, who brought the injunction suit to enjoin the state treasurer from disbursing the common school fund of the state, said that he believed the suit would be the means of bringing the injunction suit against the state aid fund for high schools, which was brought by Senator Edmondson, to a head. He thinks that the high schools of the state are as vastly important to the public school system as the common schools, as they offer the only opportunity to the child of parents with small means to get higher ed ucation. Without state aid many of these ambitious boys and girls who lack means would never get beyond the common schools.
