 TURNIPS AND RAPE.

There is hardly farm in Arkansas that cannot find vacant quarter or half acre for turnips and yield of from one to two hundred bushels may be had from a half acre. Put into pits or banks and have fine feed for the calves and cows. Arkansas farm CTS buy too much feed that should be grown on the farm. Turnips may be planted as late as the last of August. Then about the last of August every farmer who has pigs should plant a patch of rape for November and De- cember pasture. In Southern Arkan- sas rape will usually furnish fine pas ture all through the winter. Another patch may be planted about the mid de of October and by January the pigs may be changed to it and the other patch given a month for more growth.

NORTHCUT WOULD
 RESIGN TO SERVE
Prosecuting Attorney Sixteenth Circuit Will Hold Office Presi-
 dential Elector-When Will
 Officers Assume Duties?

Little Rock, Aug. ST. J. Terral assistant secretary of the State Gen. tral Committee, acting upon instruc- tons of the committee given at the recent session, wrote to H. A. North cutt, of Salem, prosecuting attorney ot the Sixteenth circuit. that no state, district or county officer could hold the office of presidential elector. MT. Northcutt, being a district officer, could not therefore act as elector. The committee went so far as to select J. A. Neaville of White county as his successor, to be formally appointed by Chairman House upon the receipt of MT. Northcutt's resignation.
 Mr. Northcutt, however, replies that he will retire from office Nov. ], and will not therefore hold an office: moreover, he says that the committee Is mistaken about his holding after the November election, and that there is nothing in the laws of the party to prohibit hls being candidate for elector while holding the office of prosecuting attorney.
 This brings up the question of when the officers elected Nov. ' shall as- sume their office. Secretary of State Hodges insists that he will not issue commissions until Jan. 1, but there seems to be growing doubt in the minds of some as to the correctness of his position. Some are saying that an earlier date may be fixed, and pre- dict that a test case will be taken to the Supreme court.
 Mr. Northcutt insists that if the committee still believes he is not eligible, he will resign his office of prosecuting attorney before he will lose his place as elector.

THE DIFFERENCE.

Bishop Napthali Luccock was talking in Helena about Sunday golf CTS.
 "A typical Sunday golfer" he said rang the bell at a manse on Sunday morning and asked to leave her golf sticks there during the service.
 "'I can hardly let you do that, said the minister.
 "'But,' the Sunday golfer objected, you've got a sign on the church porch to the effect that bicyclists can leave their machines at the manse during services, haven't you?"
 "Yes. ma am, have" the minister answered. "You can ride to church on bicycle, you know; but you cant or golf stick, unless you happen to be a witch. ."-Exchange.

uer' and the community is very sell dom the scene of a brawl, and when ore occurs it is quickly quelled.
 The feeding of this army is stu pendous task, and yet each meal is provided and served with army regu- larlty. Supper is always the best meal, being served as late as 9 o'clock, and then stories are told and songs sung.
 When the weather permits. picking IS conducted as late as 9 o'clock at night, and the streets of "The Peach City" are illuminated by electricity.
 Great Wealth Producer.
 Hon. Bert Johnson, former president ot the Arkansas Horticultural Society and one of the most extensive fruit growers and canners in the southwest, declares that the Highland peach or chard is one of the very finest in the world. It's annual product, if the peaches were made into an endless chain, would throw a cordon around the United States and also build a wall along the 1900 miles of the Mex lean border to forever prevent the Villa bandits from invading the Amer ican territory.
 AS the peaches are picked and as- scmbled they are automatically sized and graded under the direction of ex- perts before they are placed in the bushel baskets.
 Model canning factories are an m- portant part of this mammoth peach orchard, and fruit which is too ripe for shipment is sent to the canneries and canned, while the culls are fed to the army of hogs that help to make this 4,000-acre peach orchard one of the greatest wealth producers in the United States.
 The Highland canned peaches and vegetables are classed as standold brands and they are now sold all over the country.
 With the closing of the picking sea- son at Highland the pickers scatter to other peach orchards in Arkansas and Oklahoma and Missouri, as we'll as into other sections where various kinds of fruit are grown. It is an in- dustrial army of desirable men who earn good wages and are of an eco- nomical character.
 Tourists Interested.
 It is the custom during the picking season at the Highland orchard for touring automobile parties to arrive almost daily and spend few hours watching the operation. This season there were tourist parties from Cali fornia and other western states and from New York and other eastern states.
 Thousands of kodak views have been taken of the Highland orchard, whose Elberta peaches are now the favorite fruit in the hotels and homes of the people of New York, Boston, Washington, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Chicago, St. Louis and Denver.
 Mir. Johnson relates how, while he was recently in the lobby of hotel in New York City, several gentlemen were discussing Arkansas wonderful peach crop. One of the men exhibited several views of the Highland orchard and asked Mr Johnson if he had ever visited it, adding that while on an automobile tour he had watched the wonderful scene at the opening of the picking season.

TRIES TO BLOCK FUNDS FOR
SEcTARIAN SCHOOLS

Suit for an Injunction to prevent
payment of 100000 of the county's
money to sectarian schools has been
filed by VIM. H. Dunn, taxpayer.
In his bill Dunn says the county
has been paying out enormous sums
of money to schools controlled by re-
ligious bodies when the state consti
tuition strictly forbids so doing. Ten
schools are mentioned.
1t is Dunn's intention to prevent
passage, if possible, of the county
budget until the Objectionable items
are taken out.

A Race Of Tsnors.

Generally speaking, races living nj
high attitudes have weaker and more
highly pitched voices than those living
in regions where the supply Of oxygen
Ia more plentiful. Thus In South
America. among the indians living ON
the platcaus between the ranges Of the
Andes. at IN elevation OF from 10000
to $4,000 feet, the men have voices like
women and the women like children,
their singing being II shrill monotone.
The Australian native has a weak
voice, but knack OF sending II a long

African bushmen would come into the
