THE PRISON AS A CORRECTIVE.

Thomas Mott Osborne, a strikingly success
full businessman who is a great humanitarian
and is devoting his life now to prison reform,
believes in prisons. He is warden of Sing Sing;
he speaks from experience. In an article on
Prison Reform in the American Review Of Re-
views for October, he says:
'No sensible person proposes to sentimental
ze over the law-breaker. Call the prison by
any name you please, yet prisons of some sort
we must have SO long as men commit crime;
and that, from present indications, will be for
many generations to come,
$50 far from setting men free from prison,
would put more men in prison than are there
now; for we should send up all who now escape
by crooked wiles.
But behind the prison walls we should relax
the iron discipline-the hideous, degrading, I'M
successful system of silence and punishment
and substitute system that will be fair to all
men, limited form of freedom, and work in
the open air.

WE MAY EAT HAY,
SAYS A PROFESSOR
Declares Grasses Taste as Well as
Cabbage and Potatoes if We
Only Think &c.

Smoked alfalfa for breakfast,
stewed timothy for lunch and broil-
ed clover for supper-this is the
menu for the future, Prof Henry
Walters, a Pennsylvania botanist,
suggests. He says it is possible by
chemical treatment to make the
"lilies of the field" as palatable as
boiled cabbage,
1--WE are slaves of the nerve of
taste found in our mouths" the
professor explains in his best sci
entific manner. What you like
TO eat does not depend on your
stomach, but on your sense of taste
concealed in little nerve in your
mouth and tongue. That little
nerve is eating up your grocery
bill"
He proposes that experiments be
made with proposes 50 they will
taste as we'll as cabbage and pota-
toes. The nourishing juices of
timothy and clover, he says, possess
a higher food value than cabbage
and potatoes.
Let the experiment station give
new tastes and flavors to the grass
es and prejudice against using
them can be removed by giving
them high-sounding Names" he
says.

COUNCIL ORDERS
SPRING CLEAN Up
Thursday and Friday, April l and
2, Named as Days for Kidding
City of Garbage.

Paragould is to have her annual
spring celan up, if orders issued
last night by the city council are
carried out by the people residing
within the corporate limits of the
city. The matter was presented to
the council by the mayor who urged
that at least two days be set aside
for general clean up of the city
before the warm weather comes and
the flies begin to breed. The coun-
Gil authorized the mayor to issue a
proclamation naming two clean up
days and calling upon all the peo-
pie of Paragould to clean up their
premises and have the garbage cart
ed away,
Last year and the year before
last the city furnished the wagons
to cart away the garbage. This en-
tailed an expense of more than one
hundred dollars. On account of
other and more pressing needs the
council decided the city could not
afford to bear this expense this
year. 1t was further argued that
the owner or occupant of each
premise could we'll afford to pay
the small expense incident to hav-
ing the garbage hauled away. 1t
is probable the draymen will make
a special price for doing this work
end the expense upon each property
owner or tenant will be small
sThe mayor and the city health of
ficer, DR.. w. r. Owens, have set
apart Thursday and Friday, April
l and 2, as clean up days and call
upon the people of Paragould to
give their premises thorough
cleaning on these days.
Further announcement with ref
erence to arrangements that may be
made for having the garbage carted
away will be made later.

BANKER TALLEY
GETS TWO YEARS
IN PENITENTIARY
Former Citizen of Paragould Was
Charged With Defrauding De-
positors in Rogers Bank.

w. E. Talley, at one time citl-
zen Of Paragould and who has been
heavily interested in farm and tim
Der lands and various kinds of in
dustries and enterprises in North
east Arkansas, later embarking in
the banking business with j. E..
Franklin, head of the now defunct
Bankers Trust Company OF St.
Louis, was convicted at Bentonville
Saturday on an Indictment charging
him with receiving deposits in the
Banks of Rogers. after he knew the
bank was insolvent. The case has
attracted widespread interest on ac-
count of the prominence of Talley
in Arkansas and Missouri and the
verdict of the jury in finding him
guilty and assessing his punishment
at two years in the penitentlary
came as a severe blow to his many
friends who do not believe he has
/ been guilty of any crime. The news
story sent out from Bentonville to
the papers Saturday night follows:
''W. E. Talley, president of the
defunct Bank of Rogers, was found
guilty of receiving deposits after he
knew the bank to be insolvent and
Tertiary this morning. The jury
brought in its verdict after deliber-
ating over the case since 8 O'Clock
last night.
THE defense contended that the
bank now is solvent and that its
closing was brought about by a
run of six months which it was
charged, was caused by undue in
reference of the state banking de-
partment with the banks affairs.
They declared the depositors will be
paid in full. They said that Talley
had been connected with the bank
only two years before the date Of its
closing and that the cuases of the
banks difficulties dated back con-
siderably further than that. They
said Talley had made every effort to
comply with the rulings of the state
banking department and that he
had lost everything, even the saw

the bank.
"The prosecution laid stress on
testimony to the effect that the
bank is insolvent They declared
Talley knew the bank was insolvent
when in June he signed a bond
with other officers of the bank
guaranteeing the depositors $780,
600. They argued that the proba-
bility of the depositors being paid
in full did not enter into the case.
Prosecuting Attorney j. S.
Combs was assisted by Attorneys
Fowler and Ivie of Rogers, while
Talley was defended by Attorneys
John Nance, w. B. Hollyfield and
State Senator John R. Duty, all of
Rogers.
"Other officers of the bank who
are under Indictment on similar
charges are j. F. Little, j. Everett
Strour, Benjamin Halter, j. w, Wal
ker and J. E. Felker. Little's trial
is set for Monday"

BENTLEY TALKS
ABOUT PIG CLUB
Demonstration Calls Meeting Of Boys
at Chamber Of Commerce Room
On Friday, April 2.

The boys pig club that is being
organized by Thos. j. Bentley, coun-
ty agent, through cooperation with
the banks of Paragould, is for the
purpose of teaching the boys of
Greene county the fundamental
nection with that, the aim is to
instruct the boys in raising feed
crops and pastures for hogs.
Therefore, when boy wishes to
join the pig club, he is also re-
quired to join either the corn club
or the peanut club.
While he will have to do a little
planning to carry his pig till fall,
he will be raising crop of corn
or peanuts so that after gathering
time, he will have plenty of feed.
If a boy takes his acre in corn
we want to instruct him in what
way he can feed something with
his corn to make a balanced ration
for his pig and the same way with
peanuts.
We want at least one hundred
boys to join the club and would
me as soon as possible" said Mr..
Bentley this morning. 1--WE want
each boy to make record of what
his pig weighs at time of purchase,
keep correct record of what it
costs him to raise the pig, and
1yN W. he Fol-
are ready to close the contest.
Each boy will be expected to ex-
hibit his pig at the fair this fall.
"Our plan of financing the pig
club for this year is that the farm
boys of Greene county having some
mighty good friends in the banks
of Paragould, they have agreed to
buy 100 pure bred pigs and furnish
one to each of 100 boys and take
the boys note for the purchase price
payable at the end of one year or
sooner.
IF we can get one hundred boys
to take pure bred pig on his own
note and his own responsibility,
we believe we will have laid the
foundation for one hundred good,
progressive, live stock farmers for
Greene county.
Boys, if you will come and join
with us in the club work and do
your best to make good and thereby
prove to your friends that you can
make good, we may be able to do
more for you next year.
Zone thing is sure, if you raise
good pure bred gilt this year you
will have some pigs to sell next
year. Then you will be in position
to supply pure bred pigs to any one
wishing to buy.
I'VE will have list of nice pre-
miums for several different classes.
1--WE want the boy to select the
breed of hogs he likes best and we
will help him in selecting and buy
ing the pig,
Il want every boy who is inter
ested to meet me at the Chamber
of Commerce in Paragould on Fri
day, April 2, so that we can talk
the whole thing over and get busy
buying our pigs"
