GOOD HEALTH

The farmers greatest asset is good health for himself and his family. To keep in good health all must have good food properly prepared, must observe common sense rules of sani- tation and cleanliness and must keep premises free from contaminating conditions. Flies and mosquitoes are carriers of disease and must not be tolerated. Good drinking water must bep rovided. Typhoid fever, malaria and tuberculosis are far too common Tn the country. Let everybody help make the country the safe place for living, not a dangerous place. Ask the County Agricultural Agents and the Home Demonstration Agents for bulletins on health or write to the Director Cooperative Extension Ser uce, University of Arkansas, and U. S' Department of Agriculture, Little Rock, for bulletins.

INTERESTING VIEWSFED.
 ERAL PARTICIPATION
Secretary War Newton D. Bak- CT, Baby" Member Wilson's Cabinet in Letter to Senator Chamberlain, of Oregon.

Washington, May 7.-Secretary of War Newton D. Baker, the "baby" member of the Wilson Cabinet, has set forth some interesting views upon the subject of federal participation in the building of good roads in letter recently written to Senator George E. Chamberlain, of Oregon, copy of which was made public here today by the National Highways As sociation.
 The letter is in response to a re- quest from Senator Chamberlain for the War Departments views upon the lShleldS-Small bill providing for a pre- llminary investigation and report on system of national highways. The report" provided for in the bill is really survey to be prepared ac- cording to recognized principles of engineering" and to "describe high ways to extend into or through all the States of the United States" Such 1 highways are to be main or trunk | line highways connecting principal lcenters of population, or places suit ed to become local points of com munication," to be built and main tained by the Federal government.
 Commenting upon this legislation, Secretary Baker supports both the safe and wise business principle of preliminary examination and report" and the sound principles of central control" His letter to Senator Cham berlain reads as follows:
 War Department, Washington, Mch.
 13, 1916.
 Hon. George E. Chamberlain, Chair man Committee on Military Af- fairs, Washington, D. C.
 My Dear Senator:-I have the honor to present the following reply to your request of the 16th ultimo. If Congress desires to enter upon the construction of a system of na- tional highways, the general features of the plan presented in the bill are, in my Judgment, admirably adapted
 to produce the facts necessary for
 such consideration. It proceeds upon the safe and wise business prin- ciples of preliminary examination and report, thus giving Congress full in- formation collected by trained men and the data so collected forms definite and essential basis on which to found conclusions as to what eX- tent, if any, and under what condi- tions the Federal government shall embark upon such a project.
 Ut includes also the sound prin- ciples of central control, thus insur- ing standard and uniform results for all sections of the country, and of committing expenditures to officers directly accountable to the Federal government, and alive to the fact that the largest possible outcome for the money placed in their hands is eX- pected of them.
 In addition to the advantages of the intelligent way of going at the matter, and of the uniform and eco nomical results to be expected from the method in which appropriations are to be applied, the plan makes pos sible a special military advantage in time of war through the fact that officers of the corps of engineers, on whom. in war time, the work of map ping out the theater of operations and constructing roads therein, depend, would have d wide knowledge of our national communications, and a valu-

Votes are based on units of physical force-nothing else. They are not based on intelli- gencc, or the more highly edu
 cated classes would have more votes than the ignorant. They are not based on virtue, or many women would be entitled to many votes, while numbers of men would be entitled to none. They are not based on payment of taxes, or the great landowners would vote in many states, and the men without property would vote in none.

II is thought that law permit
ting actions to be brought by Coun-
ty and state Attorneys on relation of
the State for recovery Of interest
paid on usurious contracts will be
applicable alike to national and State
banks. This sort OF law is believ-
co to meet with favor Of the execu-
tive office as well as the other pro-
posed feature that would vitiate the
lien on chattels securing a usurious
contract.
In addition to this plan the re-
duction Of the tax on money and
credits to nominal figure is thought
TO be considered with favor by party
leaders.

srArE PRISON nERE. MAYRE

Part OF the state administration
plans for the utilizing Of the state
convicts is ipcluded in the purchase
and working of an extensive state
farm Last week the Board of Az
fairs examined a large tract of land
in Boggv Bottom. Atok9 county. and
this week looked at two sites i'm Bry-
an county. one on Blue and the other
on Washita river. Just which site
will be selected has not been an
rounced but it is rumored that one
Of the Bryan county sites will be de-
cided upon The timber from the
land bought will be utilized to build
the improvements on the farm. The
profits earned by the operation Of
the farms will 20 to assist in main
tanning State institutions The Gov
ernor has an idea that the proper
utilization of convict labor will make
the penitentary system not only pay
it's expenses but also a profit like
is done in some other States. In the
opinion Of those who have studied the
situation, it can be also done in this
State
