Let us remember that while cotton is fine crop, the earth can grow green and flow with milk and meat without cotton stalk rais- ing its head to the sun; but that without cattle and hogs, the greenness, the milk and the meat would disappear, and the earth be- come as dry as the legislators have made Arkansas.

EFFORT TO STOP WHITE SLAVE
 TRAFFIC

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5. - A nation wide crusade, including Alaska against the white slave traffic and other forms Of commercialized vice, has been launched by the United States government The federal bu- reau of investigation and the bureau of internal revenue have joined forces in this new effort.
 Contrary to popular belief, the white slave traffic throughout the country has not fallen off, but if anything, has increased during recent years, accord. ing to the bureau of investigation. An average Of one new case a day Is re- ported.
 The campaign against white slavers in New York City was largely respon- sible for bringing about the new con ;erted action of the federal bureaus Taking valuable clews from Prosecu- tor Swann's investigation in New York the federal agents plan to SCOUT the country in an effort to reduce the vicious traffic
 Experience of both bureaus, work ing independently, has shown that the white slave traffic drugs are busi Resses almost invariably carried on by the same coteries of criminals White 'layers are drug addicts to a large habit forming drugs in obtaining vic inns for their traffic, the independent investigations of the two bureaus have exclusively shown.
 Evidence gathered by the two bu- reaus will be compared and if the facts procured on one charge are in sufficient to bring about conviction, the other set of facts will be used. By joining forces in this manner 1t is believed a long step will be taken in suppressing yics.

BRONCHO RIDERS HAVE TANE:
 JOB NOW

DENVER, Colo, Oct. 6 - Continued demand for American horses by Brit ish and French governments for use on European battle fields has robbed "broncho busting" of its glamour and reduced that time honored industry and feature Of frontier celebrations to the level of mere drudgery.
 Hundreds Of horses from all sec tions of the Rocky mountain region are purchased for European export at the local sto,kyards daily. and many other hundreds are rejected. Each animal must be mounted and ridden as part of the inspection, and noted riders from many western states are employed in the work. We'll known busters" who have won champion ships in the past now are riding as many as fifty horses a day.
 Instead of the open range or the pdudVNh HI ftN" tL ttH NAN"N@r they ride in a narrow roofed enelos- ure with critical inspector and one or two assistants the only spectators. Several mattresses are fastened at either end of the enclosure to soften the fall Of an occasional tear-blinted animal and his rider Several riders have been hurt and one recently was killed.
 The supply of gun fodder" as the riders call the horses. seems amending The standard of requirements has been lowered somewhat when receipts began falling off and horses are being accepted now that were rejected for merly. Shipments continue to be heavy. and weekly purchases often run into the thousands.
