Mrs. A. E. Orr Dead

Mrs. A. E. Orr was found dead at her home on East Main street last Saturday afternoon by her son-in-law, B. H. Logan. Mrs. Orr lived alone, and 83 years old. She was rather an eccentric char acter and would not live with any of her children, though they did every thing in their power to get her to do so. Some of the rel atives would 20 to see about her about every day. and MT. Logan went down to see after her Sat urday afternoon, and could not get in the house, all the doors being fastened. pryed one open and found her dead. She had been dead for several hours.
 She leaves four children, Mrs. B. H. Logan of Prescott, Mrs. Charles Wingfeld of Hope, Mrs. Reece Lamb of Murfreesboro and Sam Orr of Dermott, Arkansas.
 Funeral services were held at the residence of MT. and Mrs. B. H Logan, Sunday and her re- mains were carried to Dobyville. Clark County, for burial.
 Why should we worry" said one of the Soulh's leading think CTS to us a few days ago. T used to think we couldn't grow corn in the South, but Iknow better now. With as good fert- ilization and cultivation we can make fifty bushels of corn on an acre that will make a bale of cotton. If the war lasts till August, as 1 believe it will, corn next fall will be about $2 a bush el and cotton seven cents a To. Why worry about getting only $35 an acre from the cotton if we can get $75 or $100 an acre from corn?" The Progressive does not intend to vouch for this gentleman's prophecies. but we may cut his estimate of $2 corn in half and then find it a consol- ing reflection It's results that count. and $50 worth of corn per acre is as good as $50 worth of cotton, Progressive Fla mer.

BUILDING MODEL HOG
BARN
Ezekiel Sweet of Sweet Prepar-
ing to Fatten Hogs on
a Large Scale.

Zeke Sweet, the big stock rancher
of Squaw creek valley, is finishing a
big hog barn on his ranch near Sweet
that will be a model. 1t will have a
capacity of $50 head.
The building will have cement
floor, constantly flowing water piped
from a spring, self feeding bins, feed
grinders and cookers anG a corn crib
above the grinding machines. Mr..
Sweet claims this is the only corn crib
in Gem county, if not in the state
The second floor also has room for
storage of alfalfa, which will be chop
ped before being fed TO the hogs.
Mr. Sweet, contrary to the usual
custom, built fine farm residence be-
fore providing such nice quarters for
his hogs. It is a bungalow, equipped
with fire places, hot and cold water,
bath, beamed ceilings and roomy, well
lighted rooms. The large front porch
is supported by pillars made of quartz
from the old Liberty mine, of which
Mr. Sweet is heavy stakeholder and
which he expects some day to become
a rich producer.
Zeke Sweet is a pioneer of pioneers
in that section, and the pleasant lines
in which the evening OF MS and his
good wife's lives are cast are richly
deserved by the years of toll and grit
and perseverance which every pioneer
puts into the development Of new
country. May they both live long to
enjoy the fruits of their labors and
good works

Had Tailholts

While driving a horse to a buggy
one day last week, one of the Rynear-
son girls dropped the lines and the
horse ran away. As the horse ran at
full speed down Boise avenue, the
girl grabbed it by the tail and held on
for dear life. 1t was a spectacle both
exciting and amusing. The horse ran
to w. f. Fishers place, turned back
and finally ran into Walter Larkin's
livery barn, with the plucky young
lady still hanging on for dear life to
the horses caudal appendage. No
damage.

party be deprived Of victory in the
campaign of 1916, Senator w. E
BOrah fired the hearts of the Republi-
cans assembled at the organization OF
the Gem County Republican commit
tee with enthusiasm. He urged Re-
publicans to fight with all their might
within the party to secure the adop-
tion of a proper platform that har-
monies with the views of the major
ity. The defeat of 1912, while unfor-
tunate, was not without its compensa-
tions, he said:

lican party thoroughly united in
1876" he said after the split took
place in Chicago the breach widened
as a matter of course, but really at
the time the breach occurred it was all
over the method of manipulating the
Chicago convention and the manner
of seating the delegates. But l feel
that the cause of division has been re-
moved. The national committee has
no longer any power to pass upon the
credentials of a primary elected dele

certificate of the returning board. In
addition to this, the representation of
the south has been cut down so that
they now have about 81 votes out of
about thousand. l have taken part

sides so far as the voters are con-
cerned and that we will find in 1916
that the division has practically dis
appeared. There may be some on
both sides who feel different, but l
think the great mass of the voters
feel that there is but one thing to
