TRIBUTE TO COMPANY M.
SiOO Fund Provided for the Emergencies
Of Our Soldier Boys.

As "a tribute to our soldier boys, and
because of their willingness to take up
arms for their country, not knowing
what the consequences might be, three
of the most efficient young ladies of
Harrison have called upon the citi-
zenS for donations to a company fund
that they ymighth have an occasionalluX-
ury. the Government only furnishing g
the most needtul things. These
young ladies have worked diligently
in the hot sun for several days and
have succeeded in collecting $4,000
which has been sent to Company NJ for
the boys to use as they see fit. This
fund is handled by the captain, and
he gives strict account of the same as
with all other funds entrusted to his
care. This has been done all over the
country, and it is with pride Harrison
has fallen into line to show her boys
how mugh we appreciate them.
A list of the donors will te publish
ed next week.

COMMISSION MEN INDICTED
u. S Lcur Investigates the Wholesale
Loss on Peaches Last Year.

J. +. Hawkins. orchardist of near
Bc!lefonte, returned from St Louis
Wednesday where he appeared as Il
witness against Commission Compa-
nieS which were indicted some twenty
seven times for making false reports
on peaches consigned to them from
this section last year.
1t was the opinion then, that our
shippers were being merclcSSly rob-
bed by the commission men, who it is
said, reported the finest fruit as un-
saIeable in many instances and forced
the shippers not only toloSe their fruit
but the freight charges as well. In
some case the investigation made in
t. 5. Court has led to the payment
of large sums withheld by the COM
mission men.
Mr.. Hawkins was one of the suffer
erS in this way and has given conSid-
erable time to tracing up the cars on
which he lost, and in nearly every
case found that he was cheated by
the men handling them.
1t is hoped this action by the
[. S. Grand Jury in ipdicting 50 many
on these charges will lead to better
conditions for our fruit shippers in
the future.

A Word for Harrison and Good
Roads.

The Hot Springs correspondent IT
the Times says:
T.. NJ. Wise, of Harrison, formerly
general manager Of the Missouri a. i
North Arkausa, railroad. who 3,
been at the Arlington Hotel i'm Hlt
Springs for several DAYS, Is q good
road, enthusiast. Ii haSrema.aru lur
him to advance a new illustration 20
the advantages of good roads buiIdmg.
Mr. Wise puts his illustration in this
way suppose a piece of property
five or SIX miles from good town Is
reached 10y very bad roads 1t takes
the farmer an hour and haIfto reach
his place from town. The land, for
nStance, is valued at $50 an acre.
Suppose the road Is put int0 such Il
shape that the farmer may reach his
home in thirty minutes. The value
of his land will jump at once to a
value equal to that of land of identical
productivneSs, but which could have
been reached. from town over "A bad
road, in thirty minutes. In other
words, the bettering of the roads is, in
effect, the moving Of the farm several
miles nearer to town.
Mr.. Wise is also Harrison enthu-
siaSt. He misses no opportunity to
boost his home town. He says that
he will retain his citizenship in
Harrison. Mr.. Wise left Hot Springs
Sunday for Alabama where he will
visit his mother before going to New
York on business.

ed the seed from ]. +. Wyandof Mus

Cleaning Up Would
Destroy Mosquitoes
Breeding Places

"CW WAT THE FLYF' has long
- been rallying cry among the
workers for better sanitation,
purer hygiene and cleaner streets, but
Its position as slogan is threatened
by new cry Of ISLAM the mosquito"
A bulletin issued by the Philadel-
phia board of health deals with the
mosquito question and tells how to
make the clean up campaign mini
mlze, II not eliminate, the dangers in
separable from the presence Of mosqui-
toes in numbers. 1t lays stress on the
importance Of killing as many as pos
sible of the mosquitoes In the early
spring, because every mosquito killed
now will mean thousands less In the
summer"
by far the best way to deal with
mosquitoes" says the bulletin. "is to
destroy their breeding places. As soon
as the warm weather comes the female
mosquitoes, which are the only ones
which survive the winter will emerge
from their winter quarters in our eel
lars. vaults and other damp, dark
places to seek food and to hunt a place
to lay their eggs. The breeding mos
quito must find standing water in
which TO deposit her eggs. IL she
fails in this she soon dies, without Off
spring. Therefore no stagnant water.
no breeding places for mosquitoes; no
breeding places, no mosquitoes.
w People do not realize that any pud-
die of water no matter how small nor
how foul. is an acceptable breeding
place for mosquitoes. Where It Is nee
essary to have water standing in tanks,
barrels or other such receptacles. keep
them tightly covered with fine wire
screens. Keep cesspool covers perfect
ly tight and the vents tightly screened.
"Where drainage of pools is not pos
sible or covering of receptacles is not
practicable all standing water should
be covered with film of kerosene oil.
which prevents mosquitoes from breed
ing in 1t. One ounce of oil is sufficient
to cover fifteen square feet of water.
The oil should be renewed once a
week during the mosquito breeding
season"
The bulletin admonishes all house
holders and residents to take full ad-
vantage OF clean up time, so that
neighborhoods and individual premises
may he made mosquito proof, fly
proof and disease proof"
