 President Wilson recently remitted the fines and costs assessed against Hyde. the total of which never had been defi- nitely determined and which had resulted in his remaining in prison four months after his sentence had expired. Hyde originally was sentenced to two years im- prisonment, but this was commuted to a year and a day before he began his term. In considering the case President Wilson directed that Hyde be released

shrubs almost better than I have known people, and my work with them has been a great pleasure to me- he continued. From the first stages, when they are lection I enjoy the care of them, and this year I am particularly happy over the result of our Easter lilies. We have hundreds and hundreds of them, as you've seen in the greenhouses. and one reason we have been so successful with them is that we buy the best bulbs thatscan be found. The great advantage of our flow CTS is that they do not have to be shipped here. Right from the grower to the con sumer is our slogan, and consequently the freshest and prettiest flowers may be had at all time"
 Birmingham has many industries of which its citizens may be justly proud but certainly nothing that I have seen is more beautiful or more wonderful than the Elmwood greenhouses.
 Just as we were leaving we took al last good-by peep at the masses of lovely Eas- ter flowers, hundreds of snow white Eas- ter lilies and flaming red rhododendroms in vivid contrast stood out like glorious painting, whose colors it would take an artist to classify, florist to catalog and poet to describe-it was all so exquis- itely lovely

Monticello vS. DermOtt.

One of the liveliest games of baseball ever pulled off on the Monticello diamond was that of last Friday evening between the Monticello and Dermott team S of the Southeast Arkansas leag- ue. There was good playing on both sides, but the Monticello team showed superior skill, in battery, at the bat, on bases and in the field.
 Chambers, for Monticello, pitched a no hit and no run game, while Miles, as catcher, performed his task in the most satisfactory manner and without a single error.
 Two base hits, Wells, Miles, Corrigan, Wilson; all of Monti- cello team. Bases on balls off Chambers, 1, off Gallian, }. Struck out, by Chambers, 12, by Gallian, ,.

Some Forms of Rheumatism
 Durable.

Rheumatism Is a disease char acterized by pains in the joints and in the muscles. The most common forms are: Acute and Chronic Rheumatism, Rheumat- ic Headache, Sciatic Rheuma- tism and Lumbago. All these types can be helped absolutely by applying some good liniment that penetrates. An application of Sloan's Liniment two or three times day to the affected part will give instant relief. Sloan s Liniment Is good for pain, and especially Rheumatic Pain, be- cause it penetrates to the seat of the trouble, soothes the afflicted part and draws the pain.

TWenty.Seyen Kinds of Whiskey

Five thousand gallons of Fort Smith made moonshine whiskey and two thousand gallons of St. Louis beer and lot of other property was captured in Fort Smith this week by revenue of ficers and deputy marshals. A number of liquor men were plac- ed in jail in default of bonds ranging from 5000 to $7500. A feature of the capture is that the officers unearthed complete out fits of chemicals, coloring matter, etc, making any particular vari- ety of whiskey or brandy on short order. Equipments were found for making ? different varieties of strong drinks from chemicals.
 The capture involves the noted Rush distilling company. It is more than probable that the peo- pie in the vicinity of Atkins have been victims of this fraud and have paid for whiskey and received that stuff. It appears to have been one of the greatest cheats of the times.-Atkins Chronicle.
 If what the Chronicle says Is true, and we have no reason to doubt it, we have been imposed upon, outrageously. Every drink of whiskey that we ever took, was purely from philan- thrdpic motives, with the sole view of helping the farmer find a market for his corn and rye and now 1t turns out that the

The Enormous Cost of the
 Cattle Tick.
Arkansas Gazette)

Cattle raising can never be made a profitable statewide in- dustry until the farmers of the quarantined sections become set in the determination the tick must go. The annual loss from the tick is enormous. B. H. Rawl, chief of the Dairy Divison of the United States Department of Agriculture, says government figures show that farmers of Ar kansas were deprived of $6, ,000,- GOO during 1914 by the cattle tick.
 The eradication of the tick is neither difficult nor expensive. With an expenditure of $500,- GOO or one-t twelfth of the annual loss, Mr. Rawl believes the tick could be wiped out completely in Arkansas by September 1. The federal government is willing and anxious to supply half the money required for snch work. People of the infected districts would be expected to provide the other half of the funds and give the movement their coop eration and approval.
 MT. Rawl does not believe it necessary to make an outlay for blooded stock as soon as the in- fected regions are free of ticks. He has faith in the Arkansas "scrub," as meat and butter producer under favorable condi- tiOns. He advises farmers to keep the cattle they have and do the best they can with them for awhile at least.
 Cattle raising has become quite an important industry in north Arkansas. Farmers have been directing their attention toward bettering the blood of their stock for sometime and the fame of the Ozark thorough bred is extending to other states. Kansas farmers have been buy ing Arkansas cattle to head their herds. Recently a car load of Boone county Herefords sold for..$125 each in New Mexico.
 The quarantined sections of Ar kansas have about the same a. mount of sunshine, the same rainfall and the same abundance of grasses as the north part of the state. And without the tick

Another FalSehOOd.

Below we quote falsehood that has been going the round of the press. We are not so anx- ious to give publicity to the falsehood, but we quote it just to get to look the thing square in the face and say it is lie. We can "licko the one that wrote it. A good many Arkansas papers have copied it in order to pro- yoke smile at the expense of the Arkansas farmer, but in do- ing so they have done our state an injury. The thing certainly was not written by an Arkansas man. If it were he ought to be run out of the state. It is | libelous burlesque that we should resent. A former citizen of At kins, now in Sedelia, Mo-, writes the Chronicle that he recently had his attention called to it in no complimentary manner. Here 1t is. It is a burlesque on the Arkansas farmer. Hold your nose and read it:
 He gets, up at the alarm of Connecticut clock; buttons his Chicago suspenders to Detroit overalls; washes his face with Cincinnati soap in Pennsylvan- ia pan; sits down to Ora nd Rapids table; eats Chicago meat and Tennessee flour, cooked with Kansas lard on a St. Louis stove; puts a New York bridle on Kentucky mule fed with Iowa corn; blows a farm covered by an Ohio mortgage, with a Chat tanooga blow; when bed time comes he reads chapter from Bible printed in Boston, says prayer written in Jerusalem, crawls under blanket made in New Jersey, only to be kept a. wake by an Arkansas dog-the only home product on his place."
 Yes; and if the scamp who wrote that ever did any success ful hunting he followed an Ark ansas pointer; he eats Prairie county rice cooked in a vessel made from Saline county bauX- ite; his biscuits are made from Philadelphia flour; his wife and daughter wear Pike county dia- monds; he pays five cents each for Benton county apples and Pope county peaches, and ten cents dish for Crawford county and White county strawberries :; his shirts are made from Jetfer- son county cotton, woven into cloth at Monticello; his children go to a school taught by teach CT from Fayetteville, and his wife's pastor is either from Con- way or Philadelphia; he will live so high on Arkansas products that he will finally take the gout and have to go to Hot Springs for treatment; he will then go back home and die of a broken heart for having lied on Arkansas; he will be hauled to the grave yard in Fort Smith wagon, leaving a..standing order for daily shipments of Little Rock ice.
