GUARD LEAVES FOR
 BORDER THURSDAY ASK FOR MORE RECRUITS
Deming, New Mexico, Where Troops Will be Sent. Reported Perfect
 Climate and Favorable Locality.

Little Rock, Aug. 7.-The members of the Arkansas national guard are making all preparations to move next Thursday, under the more recent or der of the war department. An ap- peal IS being made throughout the state for more recruits, and the or der for moving has acted as an in centive to many who had hesitated. The recruiting officers, now stationed at various points Tn the state, report that they are meeting with more en- couragement.
 A large number of the soldiers are at home on furlough the first of the week, as it will be their last oppor- tunity for long time-no one knows how long. Some think that even should there be no actual war with Mexico, which now appears improb- able, the guard will be kept on patrol duty on the border for six months at least. .vsw AS soon as the troops get settled Tn thelr new camp neaT Deming, N. M., within the next few weeks, the wives of officers will join them. It has been suggested that arrangements be made for a special coach for them about September 15.
 Major General w. II. Haynes, for mer commander of the Arkansas state guard, in letter to Col. Hen ry Stroupe, says that he is familiar with the climate and conditions of Deming, and that he considers it will only be pleasant outing for those who go to the front, long to be re- membered as "the happiest incident in their lives"
 General Haynes says the men "are going to most perfect climate, de- lightfully refreshing, eXhiirating, as well as strengthening, where every one should have absolute health
 'To camp at an elevation of 10000 feet" says he, higher than any point in Arkansas, and march over the mesas and broad plateaus of that region, beneath the star spang- led banner, to the tune of The Girl l Left Behind Me surely is such glory that the young men of the state might covet. They will regret not filling your ranks when these regi- ments return exulting with joy, as they face the stay-at-homes who were too timid to enlist. The of ficers deserve better at the hands of the hundred thousands eligibles of Arkansas than to entrain with less than full war strength.

George Pye, one of the county az rlcutural agents for Pulaski county. was for many years very successful market gardener, one of the "all-the- gardeners and in recent in- tervieW he offered the following sug- gestions: As fast as spring and sum- mer crops are removed, all weeds and trash should be gathered and burned, including those in fence corners and "turn-rows,' so as to destroy thou sands of insects which are so numer- ous at this time of the year. We'll routed barnyard manure should be spread literally over the ground and carefully turned under, and for crops to be planted in August, September and October the land should be turn ed and narrowed several times before planting, so as to have moisture for germinating seed and so make a we'll prepared seed bed.
 In central and southern Arkansas the following crops may be planted: : Beans, valentine and stringless green pod, planted from July 15 to August l5. Sometimes Kentucky wonder pole beans and small white lima or Seiva beans will do we'll in July. Beets, early blood turnip and early eclipse may make a good crop, planted not later than August 1. Carrots, early varieties, may be planted in August. Dwarf German kale should be plant ed, one sowing in July and another between August 15 and 25. Turnips, purple top globe and white egg, first sowing August 15 and second sowing September l5. Purple top rutabaga turnips should be planted in drills July l5 to August 15, and to do we'll must becultivated. Sometimes early peas, such as first and best, planted in August or September, make a good fall crop. When we have late sea- son, cabbage, early drumhead, Jersey Wakefield and savoy may be sown in drills in August, and when two or three inches high thinned out from eight ito F inches apart. At this time of the year always SOW where they are to grow and do not trans plant. Spinach, bloomdale, should be planted in drills August 15 to October l. Onions, plant only large sets, Sep

 ment to this State.

Travelling in a special coach, 40 men, composing the drill teams of the Conway and Sunny Side lodges, Woodmen of the World, left Conway yesterday morning for Ada, Okla, to attend the annual encampment of the district composed of Arkansas and Oklahoma. Competitive drills will be held, trophies and prizes be- ing awarded the winners. Conway won first place in Class B at the Norman meet last year, and is eX- pected to be one of the strongest con- tenderts for the capital prize in Class A at Ada.
 The following dispatch appeared in this mornings Arkansas Gazette:
 Ada, Okla, Aug. 6-Uniform rank companies of the w. o. w. at Little Rock, Hamlet, Van Buren, Conway, ElDorado and Fort Smith are ex- pected to attend the annual encamp- ment for the district composed of Arkansas and Oklahoma, which be- gins here Tuesday. More than doz- Sii SohiPaHico lIoAl ohldiloiild tltleS will be present, which will make a total of 800 men.
 The encampment will be held on the Normal College grounds east of Ada. Cook and mess tents already are up. Col. R. L. Forgan of Okla homa will be the commanding officer. Dr. L. M. Hill of Little Rock will be surgeon in charge. Brig. Gen. De E. Bradshaw of Little Rock arrived yes- terday and will have charge of dis bursements. M. A. West of Little Rock will have charge of the mess
 The Little Rock team has been a first prize winner in Class A for two years. Winners in Classes A, B. and c will be sent to the national encamp- ment next year at the expense of the grand lodge. Teams from Little Rock, Conway, Normal, Okla, and Oklahoma City are expected to be the strongest contenders for first prize this year.

SENDS PICTURES OF FISH

J. M. Ligon, who with his family IS spending vacation at Pittsburg, Tex, has sent friends here a number Of kodak pictures showing big strings of trout he has caught. On the back of each photograph is written the number of fish he caught on each days trip and their weights, which range from l 1-2 to IA pounds. Some of those who are acquainted with Jim's usual fishing luck are cruel enough to suggest that the same fish were used in all the diff 1erent pictures and that they were borrowed from fish market for the purpose.

WELL KNOWN IDAHO COUNTY
STOCKMAN PASSED AWAY AT
MONROVIA, CALF. TUESDAY
ADEABRAVE FIGHT FOR LIFE
Has Been Gradually Sinhng-Remains

kilograms were received here Tues
day morning by the Jones boys convey
ing the sad news of the death of theil
brother, Robert H. Jones, at Monrovia
California where he has been for the
past fourteen months receiving treat
ment for tubercular trouble from which
he has made heroic fight. While Mr.
Jones life has been despaired of fol
some time, there were slight changes
for the better from time to time and
his many friends had to some extent
builded upon this slight hope and prayed
that he might he spared and not taken
from a world where there are all too
few such men as the deceased.
"Bob' Jones, who was born and
raised in Idaho county and made a
phenomenal success Of the cattle bust
aess in this county to such an extern,
that he was known over the entire North
west, has fewer enemies than any man
we know of and go where you will you
will find kindly word spoken of him.
He closed out his interests here several
years ago and acquired heavy land and
stock holdings in the Big Hole Basin of
Montana where he was residing when
attacked with tubercular trouble several
years ago. All was done within the
power of medical science to save him as
he grew worse it was decided to take
him to a more moderate climate and in
company with his brothers, he left for
California where for fourteen months
he has fought bravely for his life, never
once despairing and all of good cheer.
For some time past his brother Seth
has been at his bedside awaiting the
end which was evidently not far off.
"Bob' was most congenial sort of a
fellow who made friends everywhere.
He was admired by the man of ordinary
means and his advice sought after and
Judgment eagerly listened to by men
big in the business world. Alive to
public interest, Mr.. Jones gave freely
of his time and money and to him as
much as any other man does Camas
