EOgS Chase
Deer Into City

There have been a number Of
complaints recently about dogs
running deer i'm this vicinity It
is not charged that anyone is
deliberately running deer with
dogs but there are those owning
dogs who allow them to get out
and they are running the deer.
Wednesday afternoon deer was
chased right into the city by dogs
coming i'm from the south at
Seventh street. The dogs were
driven off by some men and the
deer allowed TO escape.
This is the second time within
two weeks that deer have been
driven into the city by dogs and
the other time q deer was killed
.in trying to jump a wire fence.
Owing TO the past hard winter
deer are in very poor condition
and are weak and unable to keep
away from the dogs and it is be-
lieved that quite a number are
being killed i'm this way. Some
Of the local sporsmen are very
indignant over the matter and
have threatened to form a party
and go cunning for dogs.

AS Statesmen

YOUR advertisement Is

But the salesman can talk

Let your advertisements

good salesman would use.
Ler them talk frankly and
honestly about the quality of
the goods and the price.
Don't let them say any more
or any less - than you
would want a clerk to say.
than you would say yourself.
There is a demand for cheap
goods. The cheap. unpolish-

in human life the same as
solid mahogany. There are
uses to which a cheap quality

Believes in Dragging Roads.

County Judge E. P. Toney con ductes his first term of court Monday, and went into details in a manner that indicated he has been giving his new undertaking much study and thought
 Judge Toney Is good roads en- thusiast proper and intends to make that department of the county's affairs ''loom' up Commencing the first of the year he expects to meet with the road overseers of the county once or twice each month, when the needs of the roads will be discussed and plans for their betterment considered.
 The Judge is firm believer in "Old King Drag as an excellent way to keep roads good and the road overseers so far appointed have promised to drag the roads m their division after each rain And the overseers to be ap- pointed will be requested to do the same thing. which will soon put the roads m Chicot county in excellent con dition.
 The above is copied from the last issue of The Lake Village Spectator and sounds mighty good to us. The excellent condition of the streets of Dermott Is ample proof of the efficacy of the King drag as maker of good roads. If used after rains, as described above, there is no other one thing that will do as much towards good roads at so small an expense

 ELMER BYNUM.
 Doug" started the season at guard but was shifted to left-half where he played good, hard, consistent game. He was one of the most uniformly built men on the team; weighs l40 and all there. He was little green at the game but has the promise and makings of mighty valuable man. Doug was always game and would try anything once He had bad fault of kidding and throwing dirt in practise but when he got into game he gave the best he had
 JAMES MORRIS
 Jimmie was a tower of strength in the center of the line. He was one of headiest players on the team, big, tall and rangy, he had an ideal build for center. He weighs l65 pounds and will make quite man when he grows little more. You could always depend on Jimmie's passes being right there He had knack of breaking through the line and getting the quarter back before he got started. Jimmie has the promise of mighty fine player and in a year or two will make some of the larger schools sit up and take notice
 ROBERT GIBSON.
 Bob" weighs l65 pounds and could always be found at left tackle when he hadn' broken through the line or had his man down roughing him little. Bob was a hard. sure tackler for big man and when pulled back to carry the ball he always let some one know that he had hit them Bob could always be depended to do his part and to the best of his ability. With a year or two more of training Bob will make some school mighty valuable man.
 CHARLES THOMAS.
 Better known as Mule. Mule was just as his name indicates. Weighed l60 pounds, played right tackle and you might as we'll try to run over stone wall as that side of ehe line; you might dodge and get by him but you couldn run over him or push him out of the way He made this his first year Tn football togs and took to the game as duck takes to water He was always fighting and to show his gameness and grit he played the Lake Village game with F boiIs on his arm. He was handicapped all the year with them but didn't seem to mind 1t in the least. He Is hard, clean. consistent player and the kind the side lines admire.
 Lotus COURTNEY
 "Boney" played left guard and was always giving his man hammer and tongs with his elbows and knees.

Dermott Football Team.

The Dermott High School football team closed their season on Thank. giving, going down before the Warren Hi 1S-0. On the whole the season was not much of success as far as victory goes They lost three and tied one.
 They had to play teams that were completely out of their class in weight but not in football ability. Teams such as Tillar Hi, Monticello Hi, and Green vile Academy refused to play them. Lake Village was supposed to play an other game but after the hard battle the locals gave them. they always had some excuse not to play. Teams fur ther away made expenses too much and the locals had to lie idle. Warren Hi cancelled two games earlier in the season when she was weaker and waited until Thanksgiving when they were at their strongest.
 The Dermott team to the man showed real. hard. football fight in every game from whistle to whistle. There wash d yellOW HidIl Otl GIt ltitil.
 Their record follows:

 :" Is Lake Village Hi l3,

 WM. BULLOCK (CAPTAIN)
 Captain Bullock. better known as Bill" was by far the best man on the team and in this part of the state He should be given All-State quarterback. He weighs l40 and is fast He has d knack of getting away and then side stepping and lodging for long gains, of which he made many He played his best game against Warren. His long gains through the line and around the end were the outstanding features of the game. He is one of the hardest, surest tacklers for his size that ever donned football uniform. Bill was in every play He was handicapped in showing his generalship by having a green backfield to work with. He plays a clean, hard game, the kind that his bitterest opponents have to admire.
 WILLIE PERRY
 Known on the football field as "Gyp." Gyp weighs l6o pounds and is one of the hardest plunging backtield men in this part of the state. This is his second year at football and he shows that he has the making of a mighty fine player. He was shifted from Left-half to Full-back and did just as we'll as before. He is a sure tack ler-not spectacular player but good consistent man. always there in the pinches. never giving up. His special ty is intercepting passes and racing for touchdown.
 CURTIS SINGLETON.
 Little Ant" and Red" was always there at right-half. His gameness and fight were always admired from the side-lines. He weighed 125 pounds but was equal to l60 pounder. He was noted for his many small gains. He always carried the ball for 8 or 1 yards.

He will make very valuable man next year.
 LEONARD EVANS.
 'Lennie' was used in most every po- sition on the team. But you could us ualy find him on left end. Lennie weighed 130 pounds He was not a fast man but was always there. His speciality was dumping the interference; he could always be depended on to take two and three men out and sometimes got his man. He was good man to receive passes and was always down on punts and fighting for every inch He was always keeping the team in fight ing spirits. He was shifted to all posi- tions on the team playing end, fullback, half, guard and quarter. always doing his best
 JOE DUERSoN (Right end)
 Little Joe was the smallest man on the team but they never made them too big for him to tackle He weighed ll5 pounds but his speed and tackling abili ty made him equal to l50 pound man. He was fast to get down under punts and passes. He was so small the inter ference would loose him and the first thing they knew down came the man with the ball, with Joe hanging onto a foot. Joe was Il hard playing little fellow and will be valuable man next year.
 PRESTON CHERRY.
 Pete" didn't join the team until the season was about half over and like his brother Charles was new to the game. He weighs l40 pounds. Ne played right end and right halfS His speed and tackhng ability made him a very valuable man. Next to Bullock he was one of the surest tacklers on the team. He did not play enough this year to show his real value but he has promise of making one of the best ends in this part of the state if not the whole state.

HOW TO GRADE EGGS
Demonstration at New Platz Was An
Edifying Success

Thru the efforts of Josiah Sprague,
Willard K. Dubois and I. G. Barnes,
and thru the courtesy of the Johns
ton garage, in loaning their building,
a successful demonstration in egg
grading was held at New Platz, Mon
day afternoon, March 10. Two cases
of eggs were provided, one by Mr..
Sprague and the other by Mr.. Du-
Bots. These eggs were spread on
three tables arranged by the people
in the Johnston garage.
The Farm Bureau manager
brought Prof. l.. M. Hurd, of the
Poultry department, College of Ag-
riculture, who led the discussion.
The eggs weighing over two ounces
were separated from the others, and
then were again divided into browns,
mixed and whites. Then the smaller
eggs were regarded. Prof. Hurd
pointed out that it was a common
practice for commission men to buy
crates of fresh mixed eggs and then
re-grade them and get a fancy price
out of the eggs because of the grad
ing.
Over so persons attended the dem
onstration. All asked questions
which covered not only egg grading,
but incubation, fertility and other
matters.--Kingston IN. ~ Free
