WISE AND HUMANE PROVISION
Look After the bankers" Hith-
erto Neglected.

Those who brave the dangers OF
storm, fog and icebergs of that ele.
waited submarine plateau east of Cape
Cod, where the bankers" seek the
cod, are to be looked after by Uncle
Sam. The men of the big fishing fleet
which puts off from the New England
coast from Gloucester, Boston, New
burypOrt and Portsmouth lead eN-
istences which are dangerous to bod
lily health and even to life itself
The fshing craft which seek the
cod, hake, halibut and other deep-sea
ground fish on the Georges have mea-
ger facilities for men who become dis
ahled, and the usual program has been
that when man got sick he had to
stay sick and take his chances of re-
covery, being out of reach of physi-
clans, says the New York Press, edi-
foriallv In q single season many
boats and lives are lost, with numbers
more of men injured.
The national government has placed
the coast guard cutter Androscoggip
at the disposal of fishermen that may
become sick or disabled, and the Unit
ed States public health bureau has
fitted out the boat with hospital appli-
ancas ana fittings. A very thoughtful
and attentive locker after the welfare
and safety of Americans is Uncle Sam
becoming in many different ways and
directions.

When the Worlds All New.
The following New Year wish
Is ascribed TO Goethe.

It is the same old world that we
greeted on New Years morning. But
somehow it looked so different. The
invisible dividing line between last
year and this has made possible a
new angle of vision. The grip of old
passions seems to have lost its hold
and new purpose, partly old, partly
new, thrsbs for recognition. A gen
tleness appears in faces thought to
be hard and cynical. Happiness
sparlSles in the eyes of sad and lonely
folk. A sort of introduction is need
&c to oneself. For the dawn of the
new year makes possible a fresh at
tack on the age-weary problems,
another attempt to produce the best
instead of the good, and new walk
down by-ways of human experience
where one may be good Samaritan
with no eye but his to see and
understand The world is all new on
New Years morning my world,
your world, our world-to make over
for the Kingdom. - Ralph Welles
Keeler.

ITALY LOOKS TO
FUTURE CONFIDENT
Continued on Page Four.)

fective thrusts northward and east
ward, is believed to be possible early
in 1916.
The northern campaign, in the Tren-
tino and Carnic regions, has closed
with the object attained. After
months of the severest and most diff
cult mountain warfare, heroic strug
giles on precipitous backgrounds, the
Alpine troops, Bersaglieri and infantry
with heavy artillery, sometimes drawn
up the mountainsides with ropes, have
battered fort after fort into dust,
stormed and captured hitherto impreg-
nable Austrian defenses and consoli-
dated the conquered crags and volleys
against a successful counter-offensivc.
The floodgates of invasion for which
Austria had been preparing since 1866
and which she has boasted would give
her the city of Verona before Italy
could reach Gorilla, are now closed
against her with double bar and lock.
Weeks of desperate fighting against
terrific odds were sometimes re-
quired by the Italians to take a single
fortress or position in this phrase OF
the campaign
While this was going on, the second
part of the general staff plan was be-
ing executed in the Isonzo Valley. On
June 2, King Victor's armies crossed
the 1sonzo On June 8, Monfalcone
fell to General Cadorna Two days
later Gradisca had succumbed and the
Austrians retreated to Gorilla. On
July 7, the bridgehead at Gorizia was
reached by the Italians, where for five
months the ebb and flow of battle
had soaked the soil with Italian and
Austrian blood. general advance
over the entire front from Tolmino to
Monfalcone July %, still found Cador-
mas troops before Gorilla locked in
the death struggle
Gorizia's loss would mean a severe
blow to Austria and all means are en-
ployed to defend it. Reinforcements
were brought from Galicia, and it was
only the timely arrival of German reg
iments on one occasion that saved the
Austrians from disastrous rout in the
sector north of PLAYA.
During the latter days of November
the Austrian resistance at Gorilla be-
gan to weaken. December found the
city invested from three sides, the
surrounding fortresses rounded to
fragments by Italian howitzers and
the town defended by only a single |
line of trenches. Italian shells Of
heavy caliber were >ploughing the
streets,
The fall of Gorizia would give Gen
eral Cadorna's troops access to all the
roads leading toward Villach to the
north, Laibach to the east, and Trieste |
to the south. The investment Of
it would mean an expeditions occupa
tion of the Istrian peninsula, including
Pola, refuge Of the Austrian fleet.
According to the latest estimates
the total Austrian casualties in the |
Italian campaign are More than 3OO,-
600 of which 10000 are killed. Aus
trian prisoners in Italy number $4,000
The Italian losses, too, have been
heavy but probably less than the Aus
trian.

EXTENSION SCHOOLS

Since July 1916, Farmers In
stitutes have been held in al
most all the counties in Arkan-
sas and beginning with the sec
ond week Of November, Three
Day Extension Schools" will be
offered to interested communi-
ties throughout the state. Until
after January / these schools
will be held only in counties
SO fortunate as to have an ag-
ricultural and home demOnstra-
ton agent. After that date they
will be held in any community
that wants such a school. The
Extension Division of the Ark
ansas College of Agriculture
and L. S. Department of Agri-
culture will send three teach
ers for the three days with one
or two special lectures in addi-
ton, a teacher of livestock, one
on soils and crops and a teach
er of cooking. To get one of
these schools there must be a
class of at least thirty farmers
who will agree to attend for
the six sessions and there must
,be at least twenty women who
will agree 30 attend for the six
sessions. There is no limit to
the number for the class other
than the size of the room but
all must agree to attend for the
six sessions. The community
will be expected to provide
rooms or halls for the meetings
and the provisions used in the
cooking and canning lessons,
amounting probably to about
three or four dollars. Farmers
and their wives who want an
Extension School should tele-
phone or see the county agent
at once as only twelve or four
teen can be held in November
and December.

START SPRING GAR

Notwithstanding the many
exhortations for fall and win

that eight of every ten Arkan-
sas gardens are today grown
up in weeds with a few sorry
cabbage heads. There are two
things to be done RIGHT NOW
for a successful garden next
year. ID Cover with good
barnyard manure; .(2) pillow,
and pillow deep. Then a light
seeding of oats, wheat or rye
for the chickens will pay. If
weeds have seeded, all the
trash should be burned before
spreading the manure. Burn
trash, spread manure and then
pillow are three important steps
t to be taken before November
10, if possible, for a good gar.

FARMER KILLS WIFE
THEN SHOOTS SELF
Their Bodies Are Found by
Owner of Farm on Which
They Were Tenants

Salem, Oct. 20.-Mr. and
Mrs. Chas. Vaughan, tenants
on the farm of B. H. Castleber-
ry. three miles northwest of
here, were found dead in their
front yard today with DOODLE
barreled shotgun beside their
bodies. 1t is believed Vaughan
fired one barrel, killing his
wife, and then killed himself
with the other. No reason is
known for the shooting.
The bodies were discovered
by Mr.. Castleberry when he
drove out to the farm on an in
spection trip. Mrs. Vaughan
had been shot through the tenn
pie. One charge had struck
Vaughan in the body, piercing
his heart. Only two shots had
been fired. The gun was lying
between them had an empty
she'll in each barrel. Vaughan
was seen shortly after / o'clock
by neighbors, and it is suppos-
ed the shooting occurred about
2 o'clock. No one saw it or
heard the shots, however. The
Vaughans have no children.
So far as is known their domes-
tic life was happy. Neighb9rs
say they had never heard of
trouble between them.

CLEANUP WEEK-WEEK
BEGINNING NOV. Is

The entomologists tell US
that the boil weevil may be al
most exterminated this winter
if farmers will help. The recon-
mendations are that infested
cotton fields be plowed the
middle of November and then
that all trash in and about cot
ton fields be raked up and
burned early in November to
destroy the winter Quarters of
the boil weevil. Therefore, all
farmers in the Weevil territory
in Arkansas are urged to make
the week beginning November
10 "Clean-Up Week." rak-
ing up trash along fences,
bitches and in edges of woods
adjoining cotton fields, around
old buildings and every place
where the weevil may find
snug winter quarters, and then
burning. Badly infested fields
in the rich delta region should
have the stalks raked immedi-
ately after the last picking and
thoroughly burned, although

ed except in just this emer-
gency. Let everybody clean up
