Pride Precedes a Fall.

Benton, Nov. 26.-That pride goeth before fall and rolling Ford gathers no moss, was in evil dence here the other day when Bud Stead ran his car over an embank- ment. He was caught under the car. His brother, John, who was with him, was thrown clear and managed to raise the car so Bud could get out. Bud frankly admits that this being his first attempt to drive a car, he was so proud of his achievement that he turned his head to see if any one was looking at him. He escaped with a slight injury to his knee. The only dam age to the car was broken wind shield.
 With the help of several men the car was righted and Bud con- tinued his efforts to run it.

 Forty-two dollars ton for cot ton seed!
 Listens like a trumpet blast from the horn of prosperity
 Yet that price was paid in Para gould this morning by Eugene Net ties. who runs general store at Bard, buys cotton, has it ginned 1n Paragould and authorizes his agents here to pay for the seed
 All this season seed has been bringing a good picre, but perhaps the highest figure paid prior to to- day was $35 At other places in the state local fights have forced the price up, but usually when the smoke of battle clears away It drops again to the price paid at other points. At Conway last week seed went to SAP ton, and few other cotton centers have reported similar high prices.
 Cotton has been looking up, also, during the past few days. The prevailing price here is from 4.25 to 435, while two weeks ago 4.25 was the maximum. Today's quota tions on the New York exchange were: December 12.17, January 12.31, March 12.62, May 12.S3.

Masons As Soldiers.

George Fleming Moore, grand commander of the Masons, who as sisted in the dedication of the new Scottish Rite temple at Washing ton, told the Masons that "the great soldiers of the world, like Frederick the Great of Prussia, and Washington, Lafayette and Yelling ton, were Free Masons. It is a fact, however, that not one of the kings of Europe which are now at war belongs to our fraternity, all though the kings of Denmark and Sweden, both neutral countries, are grand masters of Masons in their respective kingdoms"

A perusal of the German reply to the
American note would seem to create the
impression that Germany is trying to
test the feeling of the United States be-
fore committing herself to definite policy
as regards the Lusitania incident in par
ticular and submarine warfare in general
as regards neutrals. The German reply
was merely preliminary fencing with
words, or, to use a sporting expression,
"sparring for an opening" 1t remains,
therefore, for the United States to re-
affirm her position in fully as positive
language as that used in the original note
To Germany. President Wilson took a
stand and cannot well change his posi-.
ton at this time.

GARLIC FLAVOR IN MILK.
May Be Prevented By Proper Manage
ment of Dairy Herd and Pastures.

| In many states garlic or wild onion ia
one of the first green plants to start in
the pastures in the spring and is a men
ace to the dairyman because its odor ia
transmitted to the milk, thus greatly re-
ducing its market value. Many prepare
tions have been put on the market, to be
given to the cows for the purpose of over
coming this odor. These remedies are
usually accompanied with directions as
to when the cattle should be removed
from pastures containing garlic. In most
cases these directions are more valuable
than the so-cslled remedies.
Methods have been devised whereby
garlic odor may be removed from the
milk by passing air through it. While
this method may prove quite successful
in large dairy or in creamery, the
cost and the short time il is used make
il impracticable for the average dairy.
man.
There are two important steps to be
taken by the dairyman in protecting
himself from this trouble. The first is to
prevent the cows, so far as possible, from
obtaining garlic; the second is to manage
the herd on garlic pasture in such a way
as TO have it suffer the least harmful re-
suits.
Garlic makes a growth much earlier in
the spring than pasture grasses. and
therefore is usually most troublesome
when cows are first turned to pasture
and when grass is not plentiful. In many
cases garlic is localized in the pastures,
and these places should be fenced OF
and used for pasturing stock other than
milk producing cows. When the garlic
is scattered about the fields IL is impos-
sible TO do this, ard the dsiryman who
would not have the favor OF the milk OF
his cows impaired must so manage his
herd as 10 overcome the difficulty. The

CURRENT COMMENT
President Wilson.

In these critical days it is matter Tor
profound gratitude that the nation hap.
pens TO have at its head man of the

dence gave us Washington, without whom
the nation might never have been Great
ed; Providence gave us Lincoln, without
whom the nation might never have been
saved. IL would seem that the special
guardianship that has watched over us
maintains its benefcent vigil.
The president seems tos possess in
happy balance the virtues Of pscifism
and OF manly and idealistie devotion to
great principles whose protection is more
vital than peace. Washington priced the
rights Of the free men OF America more
than he abhorred war. Lincoln priced
the union more than he abhorred frat.
rieidal conflict. In the same way, resoly
ing every possible doubt in favor Of an
anicable adjustment Of differences, and
entirely devoid of any tendency toward
bellicosity, President Wilson is not will
ing 10 compromise with respect to the
duties that this country owes to itself
and 90 civilization.
The spirit Of Washington and Of Lin
coin seemed with the president yesterday
