, thousand acres of shooting. For sale
or moderate rental"
The ad continues to explain that
one seasons shooting on the game
preserves has been 1000 pheasants, 500
partridges. $50 hares, 1900 rabbits
and many woodcock, duck and snipe.
Any person in America who has
garnered wealth making munitions or
otherwise, could lease a real castle on
a long time contract at very moderate
terms.
This castle. its ad declares, is
charmingly located on a pretty Loeb
and is surrounded by vast sporting
estate of $4,000 acres, II, 600 of which
consists of one of the best grouse
moors in Scotland. The best single
bag Of grouse thus far has been 75O
brace. There also is excellent salmon
fishing and golf links.
The ad man makes no mention of
agriculture. With hundreds of thou
sands of men released from the army
after rehabilitation, Britain must
find a place for them. Those who
have lived in the open air will not re-
turn to desks in stuffy offices and
indoor civilian occupations of the
past They will insist on continued
open air, according to those who are
making a study of the situation.
What were grouse moors and hunt
ing estates of the pre-war period most
probably will be the agricultural
homes in the postwar era Of thou
sands of the men VINO have carried
the guns.
That England, Scotland and Wales
will be much nearer the soil long be-
fore the next five years is over is the
firm and widespread conviction in
England.

LONDON, May 25.-The aristocrat.
ic owners Of England's famous coun'
try estates, comprising thousands o
idle acres, today are selling theil
holdings because the war has pinched
them financially. This is believed &
mean that the idle hand will be brok-
en- into small holdings and that Eng
land will become an important agri-
cultural nation.
These grand country manors. cas-
ties and mansions on immense re-
serves of idle land have been famous
for centuries as deer parks, shooting
preserves, lands of the fox hunt golf
and fishing. To-day they are drug
on the market
The current issue of a well known
British real estate magazine today
carries ls solid pages of closely print
ed advertisements asking purchasers
or tenants for more than $4,000 acres
Of sporting estates and innumerable
country seats throughout England,
Scotland and Wales.
Real estate experts with an eye on
the future declare the large estates,
will in most cases fail for sale or
lease: that they must be split into
smaller tracts and sold for agricultur-
al purposes The fox hunt and the
grouse moor viii never again be so
popular as they were before the war
say the experts.
Here is a sample Of the properties
now on the market:

 STOCK CLUES.
COOPERATION IS ASKED
Rural Schools Will Be Visited and Instruction on Better Agriculture, Social and Religious Conditions
 in the Country Districts.
Arkadelphia.-


 A. F.. Ferguson, new farm demon strator and experimentor for Clark County, has laid plans for organizing corn and live stock clubs, and Miss Mamie Weaver, canning club expert, is mapping olt the work among the girls of the county.
 Many things are planned for accom- plishment in an agricultural way Tn this county during 1916. Among the things Is the plan to enroll at least enty-fve demonstration farms with several hundred co-operators, is an other project. The demonstrators will agree to take a certain amount of land and work it according to govern ment instructions. The cooperators will agree to observe the methods used and to read the bulletins sent out by the government.
 Conservation of the soil will be stressed, and the building up of worn out land by proper cultivation and TO- tation of crops Will De accomplished More live stock and more leguminous crops will be recommended as the basis of soil building, especially on small farms. In order to make condi- tions better for live stock growing renewed effort will be made to free the county of cattle ticks and extermi- nate hoge cholera. Dipping vats are being built in every section of the county now.
 The demonstrator will visit the ru- ral schools and instruct the youth on better agricultural. social and reli- gious conditions in the country dis tricts. Demonstrations will be given in inoculating cattle and hogs against the contagious ravages that are pc cular to them. The object in view is to get professional, business and agrl- cultural interests united in an effort to build up the farming and market ing industry of Clark county.

The Arkansas State Press Associa- tion held its midwinter business meet ing with recordbreaking attendance. A good part of the meeting was con stunned in discussing the publicity bill. Two cases in which overcharges had been made were brought to the atten- ton of the association. The associa- tion went on record as favoring the greatest amount of publicity under this bill at the smallest cost, and w>ll lend it's aid to those who desire to con test the allowance of claims of news papers that have used the bill to over charge the counties in which they are located.
 1t was realized that often the coun ty officers who know nothing of pre- paration for copy for newspapers make the reports which are to be published under the bill longer than is neces. sary. The association will have pre- pared, for the guidance of officials and of editors forms which will show how to digest the reports so that they will occupy the least space and will cost a minimum amount.
 It was brought to the attention of the association that in some counties the officials have absolutely refused to enforce the publicity bill. and it is probable that legal steps will be taken to enforce the law in these counties.
 Texarkana was selected for the May meeting. Monday, May 8, was chosen as the date for the opening session. Monday was named instead of Tuesday in order to comply, if possible, with the wishes of J. l.. Wadley, editor of the Texarkanian, who desires that the pulpits of the churches of Texarkana be filled by members of the associa- tion on May '. It is said that the ministers of Texarkana have asked that editors talk in the churches on that day.

SALTS IF BACKACHY OR
 KIDNEYS TROUBLE YOU
Eat Less Meat if Your Kidneys Aren't Acting Right or lf Back Hurts or
 Bladder Bothers You.

When you wake up with backache it generally means you have been eat ing too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they be- come sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours. tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels oft en get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult a good. reliable physi- clan at once or get from your pharma- cist about four ounces of lad Salts; take tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irri- tates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot lnjure and makes a delightful. effer- vescent Whitewater drink.-Adv.

CASE AGAINST ARKANSAS MA. GIONAl BANK REMINDED
 FOR NEW TRIAL.
ERROR IN INSTRUCTIONS
Supreme Court Holds in This State Law Provides That All Bills or Notes Given For a Bet or
 Wager Are Void.
Little Rock.

 The supreme court reversed and re- manded the famous Ed Speer alleged swindling case. tried at Hot Springs some time ago.
 mer, had obtained a $5,125 judgment against Ed Speers and the Arkansas National Bank of Hot Springs. The appeal was taken by the bank and the verdict of the lower court was revers- ed and the case remanded for a new trial.
 Speers. it is alleged, fraudulently ob- tained drafts from Johnson, the latter using them as collateral with which to bet on a horse race. It was charged that the bank cashed the drafts and therefore was a party to the transac- ton.
 The court reversed the verdict be, cause ol the following instructions given by the lower court, which the supreme court held was sufficient err TOT to warrant reversal:
 "In this state the law provides that all bills or notes given for a bet or wager are void. and if you believe from the evidence that the defend ants or either of them paid the money collected on the drafts in question to any person under the belief that such person won them at gambling, such payment would not relieve him of re- sponsibility to plaintiff"
