URGES ATTENDANCE UPON SHOCK SHOW AT LITTLE ROCK JAN. II COMMISSIONER PAGE SAYS FIX HIBIT WILL BRING ABOUT
 BETTER STOCK.

Little Rock, Nov. S.-State Agricul- tural Commissioner John H. Page to- day issued the following bulletin rela- tive to the coming meeting of state stock growers:
 Farmers who have attended pre- vious meetings of the Arkansas Stock Gromers' Association and know the value of this annual gathering of stockmen will be pleased to learn that there will be held in connection with the next convention, which meets at Little Rock on January II, 12 and 13, an exhibition of cattle and hogs and an auction sale of pure-bred stock on each afternoon of the three days.
 Speakers ot national reputation on every phase of the stock-growing subject will be present to give the farmers the benefit of their knowl- edge and experience. The Arkansas Stock Growers Association was or ganized four years ago on the initia- tion of this department, and it now has membership of 500, including the leading farmers and stock breed CTS in each community. M. M. Ruth erford of Sulphur Rock is president and Prof. V. c. Rays of the Jones' boro Agricultural School secretary.
 At the time of the meeting farm work is slack and the man who is in terested in stock can well afford to come to Little Rock and get the full benefit of these splendid meetings. He not only has an opportunity to learn, but he may help other growers by giving them the benefit of his ideas. Tte most interesting feature of the meeting is the free-for-all discussion of everyday problems.
 Growers who have stock fore sal or them to this meeting. Two hundred head of exhibition stock have been pledged. A large showroom will be provided near the convention hall, and after the lectures in the morning the rest of the day will be devoted to the show and auction.
 Shows of this kind stimulate inter- est in blooded stock. On small scale it will be like the International at Chicago and the Royal at Kansas City, stock exhibitions which no breed CT of the middle west would think of missing. Begin to make your plans to attend this meeting. If you have nothing to sell maybe you will see something that you will want to buy. Anyway, it will be three days well |spent."

PAVING TAX DUE
 IN THREE DISTRICTS
CITY TO REFUND PART
BISHOP HAS BOOKS FOR DISTRICTS ONE, TWO
 AND THREE.
From Saturdays Daily

From Saturdays Daily
 Annal paving assessments in three Conway street improvement districts .,ecame due on November 1 and the owners of real estate within these districts have 30 days from that date within which to pay their assess nents The books have been placed in the hands of Sheriff w. w. Bishop for collection.
 The annual assessment in district No. 1, the first and largest district in the city, including the principal business section, amounts to a total of s2,476.63. Of this amount one fourth will be refunded out of the city treasury, upon the presentation of vouchers attached to each receipt.
 Tn district No. 2 the levy is seven ner cent of the total benefits, and in district No. it is 16 1-2 per cent of inc total benefits, an extra levy hav ing been made in the latter district on account of the proceeds of the tond issue being insufficient to com pIete the paving No. 3's assessment next year will be only about nine per cent.
 Provision for the refund of a DOT tion of the paving taxes in districts and 3 was made in a resolution passed by the city council on June 23, 1914. providing that $100 would be paid annually by the city for each s4.OOO expended by the districts. This will be equivalent to rebate of two and one-half per cent of the total as sessed benefits each year, or about one-fourth of the cost of the work where the bonds run for 10 years.
 Paving work in districts and } is progressing rapidly, both contractors having taken advantage of the un- usually favorable weather during the past month. All of the grading on both jobs is practically completed and in district No. two long blocks of concrete have been poured, bringing the paving from Davis to Center street, along Prince street, and from Duncan to Prince street, along Chi ton street. Contractors McCulloch & Halter will begin pouring concrete for district No. 4 Monday morning, starting at the intersection of Center and Caldwell streets and running south to College avenue.

GINNING INDICATES
 COTTON SHORTAGE
6,265 BALES 10 OCT. IS
FIGURES SHOW FAULKNER'S CROP CAN HARDLY EXCEED
 16,O00 BALES.
From Thursdays Daily

From Thursdays Daily
 That the shortage in the cotton crop of Faulkner county will be even cated by detailed figures received here today from the United States sensus bureau, showing the amount ginned in this county to October IS to be only 62,65 bales. This compares with II 1926 bales to the same date in 1914 and 11,322 to October IS, 1913.
 The ginning in Faulkner county during the period from September 25 to October IS this year was 5,541 bale, as compared with 7,667 last year and 7,939 during the same pc riod in 1913.
 The "spotted' condition in the state of Arkansas is indicated by the re- turns from the various counties, some showing even larger ginnings to Oc- tober IS than in the preceding year, while others, like Faulkner, have fallen far short. The larger returns, however, are almost entirely from counties in south Arkansas, where the cotton matured earlier. The largest increase was in Ashley county, in the extreme southeastern part of the state, which ginned 10,152 bales, as compared with 6,449 the preceding year. Western and northern counties show greater losses than Faulkner, Sebastian leading in decrease from Y, 1892 last year to 1,124 to October IS this year. Comparative figures for a few nearby counties are as follows, the first figures being for this year and the second for the preceding year: Cleburne, $50, 1861; Conway, |5,222, 1O,756; Lonoke, 11,4O8, 12,194 i; Perry 1924, 2,867; Pope, 4,8S6, 10c 422; Pulaski, 6,257, S,559; Van Bu- ren, 54S, 2,54O; White, 3,670, 7,977. In Faulkner county 49 per cent of the total crop was ginned up to Octo- Der IS last year and A per cent in 1913. If 49 per cent was ginned up to the same date this year the total yield would be only 12,790 bales, while if A per cent had been ginned, as in 1913, the total yield would be 14,24O bales The crop is somewhat later than in either of the preceding years, but against this are the better weather conditions this year, and a better price, giving an incentive to rapid picking.
 The next ginning report, now being gathered, and to be made public in to- tals next Monday and by counties about 10 days later, will give better insight into the total yield in Faulk- ner county, put from present indica- tions it is difficult to figure how the county's crop can possibly exceed 16,- 900 bales, with the chances favoring a smaller rather than larger pro- duction. Reports from many gins this week are that they are idle near ly all the time, and many farmers are reporting their crops picked out.
 Under the declining prices of the past week or two, there is an increas- ing disposition among the farmers to hold back the last of their cotton and receipts for the past few days have been unusually light.
 Cotton quotations closed unchanged on the futures mar1ets this afternoon and local prices are the same as yes terday, II 3-4 cents for good cotton and II 1-2 to 11.60 for average re- ceipts. Cottonseed is unchanged at $33 per ton.

QU|NT0N SNOW IS
 GRANTED DIVORCE GROUNDS NOT IN DECREE
COURT GRANTS CUSTODY OF CHILD TO MOTHER, UNDER
 CONDITIONS.
From Fridays Daily

From Fridays Daily
 After an entire day spent in hear
 ng dispositions and arguments, Chan cellor Jordan Sellers late yesterday afternoon handed down a decree of the Faulkner chancery court grant ing divorce to Quinton Snow from his wife, Mrs. Bertha Snow. The case was one of the most bitterly contest ed divorce proceedings ever had in Faulkner county. Forty-two witness es testified in the ease, their deposit tions filling several hundred type written pages.
 The plaintiff, in his complaint, al- legged as the principal ground for his suit an undue intimacy between the defendant and Adolphus Hyatt. Num- bers of witnesses testified to circum- stances bearing out this charge of the plaintiff, while, on the other hand, the charges were strenuously denied by the defendant, who introduced much testimony to controvert the charges.
 In the chancellor's decree the ground for the divorce is not set out, the decree merely reciting that the court, "being we'll and sufficiently ad- vised," grants the prayer of the plain tiff. Under its terms, however, the defendant is given the custody of their three-year-old child, Bronnie
 Snow, so long as she remains in the home of her parents, MT. and Mrs. 5. J. Hankins, the plaintiff to have the
 right of visiting the child at stated times and to have it's possession on certain stipulated days. The plalntln l is taxed with all the costs in the case, except witness fees of the defendant. The plaintiff was represented by J.
 s. Utley of Benton and R. w. koDlns and the defendant by Geo. w. Clark.

MORE WHITE WAY
 LIGHTS INSTALLED
TO ERECT 25 COLUMNS
100 NEW LIGHTS TO GIVE MORE BRILLIANCE TO BUSINESS
 DISTRICT.
rom Tuesdays Daib

The installation of p new iron columns, carrying 100 electric lights will extend the white way" system in this city and add greatly to the brilliance of the business district at night Iron columns for the lights are now being received and Supt. E. V. Leverett of the light and water system says they will be erected and put into operation at once.
 The new lights are to follow the additional paving done during the past summer in the business streets, the white way being extended north on North Front street for sev- eral hundred feet and also being in stalled for the first time on West Oak street and along the west side of the public square, where paving has been laid or is being laid in districts 3 and 4. About seven new light columns will also be erected along the west and south curbing of the north and east sides of the public square, giv- ing needed light to these thorough fares and the railroad station grounds. Part of the expense of in- stalling the latter columns will be borne by the railroad company.
 With the addition of these lights, the Conway School and Civic Clubs plan for beautifying the square and station grounds will soon be developed and put into effect. The proceeds Of the recent street and school carnl- val. it is understood, will be used for this purpose.
