In his report to c. w. Watson, state agent in cooperative extension work in Arkansas, w. H. Carpenter. dem- onstration agent of Chicot county. gives the following interesting figures showing that Arkansas farmers are not "blowing away their billions" on cotton alone:
 IL j. Rigg of Ashton, in 1914 plant ed 50 acres in cotton; this year he has only 40
 "F. o. Andrews of Mason, one of the larger planters of Chicot county last year planted 1,2OO acres to cot. ton and this year he reduced thoss figures to 500.
 U. B. Lewis of Lake Village, who last year planted 75 acres over in the South's great staple has none this years. MT. Lewis says that any small raise in the price of cotton canno. justify cotton farming"

Heroes Battle Island
 No. 37 Among A. N. C

Little Rock, Aug. 3.-The heroes of the Battle of Island No. 37 are among the members of the Arkansas National Guard encamped at Fort Logan H.. Roots this week. They are Maj. Cur tis J. Little, who was in command of the squad, Capt. w. M. Brooks, Lieut.. Frank Crowell, Sergts. Evans and Me Daniels, and Privates McGregory, Dawson and Rutledge.
 Maj. Little with eight picked men of the Blytheville company accom- panied Sheriff Sam Maiden Friday night in his raid on the bootleggers of Island No. 37. Maj. Little, who was the first to jump ashore when the attack was made, gives a most thrill ling account of the battle which re- suited in the death of the intrepid sheriff whose bravery in going into the thick of the fight made him an easy target for the outlaws. He was the only one killed on either side. A negro, at first reported killed, will recover.
 While the battle lasted it must have been as spirited as an assault upon the German trenches. Probably five hundred shots were fired, and several of the boot-leggers were wounded.
 Eighteen arrests were made, of whom eight are white men. Four teen were landed in jail at Osceola, two at Marion and two at Jonesboro.

SUFFRAGISTS PLOD ONWARD.
Through Rain and Mud They Go tc
Galesville.

The suffragist pilgrims, who are
journeying to the home of Mistress
Margaret Brent in Southern Mary
land, arrived at Galesville, this coun-
ty, last night and their experiences
in the rain yesterday is thus described.
Without single leak in its water
proof covering, but with its wheels
hidden half way to the hubs in the
muddy roads, the suffrage caravan
rolled into Galesville at $50 o'clock in
the afternoon. Water ran in rivulets
from the backs of the two. horses,
but tucked costly away in the depths
of the schooner sat the suffragists high
and dry. They were wrapped in
steamer rugs, sweaters and raincoats.
1t was really day that went far to
prove that romance, even among suf-
fagists. is not a passing fashion
Few people in these conventional and
hurried days are given the sensation
of supreme vagabondism that is de-
rived from such a ride as the suffra-
gists had. They wondered how the
pioneers of prairie-schooners days
could have considered "schooning' a
hardship.
The caravan left here shortly before
10 O'Clock in the morning. The rain
was then coming down in torrents
and it never let up all day. But
there, was no suggestion of deferring
the pilgrimage. Edgewater was reach
ed at IL o'clock, but it was too wet to
get an audience for the open-air meet
ing which the suffrsgists intended to
hold. Mr.. and Mrs. John s. Schenkel
entertained half the party at dinner
and Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin F. Brown
entertained the other half. At L
O'Clock the caravan started on its
way again.
