GOOD ROAD
ENTHUSIASTS
HOLD MEETING AT HOPE
WEDNESDAY,.
COUNTY WELL REPRESENTED
All For Immediate Steps
for Securing the High
way.

There was a meeting of the
Jefferson Highway association
for the Hampstead county sec
tion of the road at Hope Wednes-
day, and several distinguished
speakers were pre- sent, Mr.. Car
ter, state highway engineer, be-
ing among the humber.
An address of welcome was de
livered by Hon. Tilman B. Parks,
prosecuting attorney who in
trOduced the speakers.
Every one present, so far as is
known, wanted the road, and all
were anxious to go to work at
once for the purpose of landing
it. 1t was easy to be seen that
all meant business, and only
wanted a chance to go ahead and
do something.
The meeting was attended by
citizens from all parts of the
county, and those at the head of
the organization will receive all
necessary assistance from the
people Of the county.
State Engineer Carter said
there was $4,000 miles of public
road in Arkansas, very little of
which was improved, and under
the old system there had been
about S3O,OOO,OOO spent for pub
lie roads in Arkansas within the
past ten years. He called at
tention to the fact that there are
practically no permanent roads
in Hampstead county, and under
the old system Of constructing
roads there can be no hope for a
permanent system of highways.
His idea was that our roads
should be constructed under the.
Alexander road law, and in that
way the people could build good
roads and use them while being
paid for.
ItwaS decided that the officers
of the Hampstead County Jeffer-
son Highway Association would
work with the county judge to
select ten delegates to represent
this county in the meeting to be
held at F't. Smith next week.

Editor TelegrapfJ
Dear Sir:-I tried in former
letter to tell mG friends there
what we are doing in this great
Panhandle country with your
permission l will tell them few
things that have been done here
during 1915.
On so and SIS land, many of
our farmers matured 40 bushels
of good Indian corn per acre and
sold it here at so and 55 cents
per bushel. Broom corn made
a ton to three and four acres,
selling in Texline for $25 to SIS
per ton. Mexican beans have
produced enough to net farmers
$50 per acre, after paying all ex-
penses. Milomaize, kaffir corn,
tetarita, sorghum, millet, Sudan
grass, vegetables, fruits. berries
and other crops are profitably
grown.
Our people are out of debt and
many of them have money in the
banks. Those of our farmers
who combine cattle and hogs with
our cheap feed are getting rich.
Cattle, hogs and poultry all do
