 BANK IN ARKANSAS
Camden Banker Starts Move ment to Get New Institution for Little Rock-Will be 12 Districts in Country.

Washington, D. C., July 15.-An effort will be made to have located in Arkansas one of the 12 land banks authorized in the Glass rural credit bill. Congressman w. S. Goodwin has been in conference here with R. c. Powell, a banker of Camden, who believes there is a chance of getting one of the banks for the state with location, probably at Little Rock Mir. Powell advised MT. Goodwin that he would canvass the situation in Ar kansas and advise him in order that the Arkansas delegation could take the matter up with the department here.
 By the provisions of the Glass oil, the nation will be divided into 12 dis tricts in each of which will be located a Fed eral Farm Loan Bank, whose sole business will be the lending of money on farm lands. Although the president has signed the bill, he has not yet appointed the board which will have the authority to designate locations for the banks.

27 DEATHS IN 24 HOURS.
Efforts Keing Made to Prevent Spread
 of Epidemic.

New York, July 15.-.Federal health officials today began regulating inter- state travel of children out of New York in an effort to allay alarm caused in other states by the epidemic of infantile paralysis here. Certifi- cates of travel will be issued to safe guard other states from danger of the epidemic
 Local officials said precautions against the spread of the disease to other states have been so thorough that danger has passed.
 A marked drop in temperature to- day failed materially to reduce the fatalities and development of the cpl demic uf infantile paralysis. During the 24 hours ending at 10 o'clock this morning there were 27 deaths and 144 new cases of the disease reported.
 The Rockefeller Foundation today donated $5O,000 to those in charge of the fight against the disease.

LARGEST SHIPMENT
 ELBERTAS TODAY
One Hundred and Fifteen Cars Iced Here This Morning for TOday's Shipments-CrOp is Short Account Dry Weather

Today the heaviest shipment of this years crop of Elberta peaches will probably pass through Prescott from Highland to the Northern mar. kets. The latter part of last week there were heavy shipments and some- thing over 800 cars have been shipped. It is stated that the crop will not be as large as was first estimated on account of the exceedingly dry wea- ther.
 Cantaloupe shipments are also be- ginning to become heavy and this crop is also greatly damaged on ac- count of the drouth. The price re- ceived for both the peach and canta- loupe crops is very satisfactory.
 The entire crop will almost be gath cred during this week

ROAD SURVEY COMPLETED

Evening Shade, Ark, July l6.--A survey of the road from Wirth to Cave City was completed by survey OTIS from the State Highway Depart ment the first of the week.

SALOON FOR EACH
 1000 POPULATION
Proposed Local Option Law Would Provide County Elec- tiOns-WOuld Regulate Sale of IntOXicants More Closely.

The recently initiated local option liquor bill, which would repeal the statewide prohibition law passed by the last legislature, to be voted upon at the general election in November, is widely different in many respects from any previous liquor bills in force in the state.
 It regulates the sale of intoxicants more closely than former laws, but it takes away some of the restrictions hitherto imposed upon liquor license holders. Among these is the power of the county judge to revoke licenses, which was provision in the Going law and previous liquor laws in force in the state.
 A summary of the new bill follows:
 Upon petition of 10 per cent of the voters of any county the county judge IS required to call special election to vote on the license question. The per sons circulating the petition must file a bond for 1000 to cover the cost of the election. Within 10 days after the petition is filed the county judge must call an election to be held rot less than 30 nor more than 60 days thereafter. If majority vote ''foc license" the court must then issue liquor licenses, subject to the follow ing restrictions:
 Licenses may be granted only to citizens of the state over 21 years of age and of good moral character.
 No license shall be issued except Tn q city or incorporated town of at least 500 population, and not more than one license shall be issued for each 1000 inhabitants. The population is to be determined by the last official census ol the last federal census.
 No license shall authorize the sale of. liquor on Sunday, or election days. or before , a. m. or after 10 D. m.. and shall not be granted to any one interested in any other business where intoXicants are sold in the state. Ap- plicants must file with the county clerk the exact location where they expect to sell liquor and bond for 5000 that he will abide by the pro visions Where there are mere ap- ricants than licenses authorized the county judge shall grant licenses to the applicants he thinks most worthy.
 The manufacture of wine or brandy from grapes or berries is permitted and the manufacturers may sell the product without license if sold in original packages containing not less than five gallons,
 The manufacture of alcoholic Ii- ouors may be conducted in any coun- t} voting for license.
 Rates for License
 The rates for licenses is fixed as follows; Retail-S500 county tax, $25O state tax, S250 common school tax and city tax np- to exceed $L000. Wholesale-$tG) county tax, $l50 state tax, &150 common school fund, but no city tax.

MILITIA MOVEMENTS
 ORDERED DELAYED
Sufficient Guard on Duty Now to
 Handle Situation on Border All Troops Which Now En-
 train Must be Fully Organized

Washington, July 1G.-The War Department sent orders today to all department commanders to delay transportations to the border of Ma tional Guard organizations until they are thoroughly equipped and organ. ized. This revokes a ruling issued when the Mexican situation was acute, waiving certain requirements. The order affects about 25000 men still held in the camps.
 The latest information of the de- partment is that about 100000 guardsmen now are at the border. With the 50,000 regulars there and 5000 additional men called from the reserves, officials estimate that there is sufficient force to cope with any emergencies.
 No Food Shortage.
 Reports that National Guard units are being supplied poor and insutfc- tent food are not borne out in reports received from all the department com handlers today. These accounts de- clare that there has been no food shortage among the guardsmen, and that all have been supplied normal army rations.
 A message from General Funston today reported that General Trevino has sent many troops south, with the intention of occupying the Guerrero San Borja-Santo Roosalia line against any possible northward advance of the bandits. The dispatch added that newspapers on the Chihuahua side are urging the necessity of an active campaign against bandits ito prevent their reaching United States forces and the border"

six to eight months to grow pullets to
laying maturity, and it is desirable to
have them commence to lay i'm Oc-
tober. Early April is probably the
best time to have chicks come.
Feeding Methods For Chicks
An excellent first feed for baby
chicks is bread crumbs moistened with
sweet milk and squeezed dry. After
several feeds of bread crumbs give
them a dry mash consisting of wheat
bran, four parts: rolled or pinhead
oats, three parts; cornmeal. two parts;
bonemeal, one part fine beef scrap.
one part. Serve this in n chick server
them all the time after they are
week old. Feed three times n day
with a good commercial chick feed
scattered in litter of chaff, cut clover
or alfalfa. This is kept up until the
chicks are four weeks old, when the
rolled oats are dropped from the
mash, and when they are six to eight
weeks old, fine cracked corn and
whole wheat are added to the chick
feed and finally substituted for it al
together. Some feed Il commercial
mixture known as growing scratch
feed" a mixture of cracked grains
and seeds of the proper size for chicks
from eight weeks to maturity. If sour
SKINNED milk can be had keep Il be-
fore them all the time, also clean
water and chick-size grit. Where
chicks are raised with hens feed them
apart from the hens after they are
three or four days old. Whole corn
and wheat will answer for the hens
and is less expensive.
Selecting the Breed
For the novice on a town lot or
suburban acre I would suggest one
of the American breeds as probably
best suited TO his needs, as in his case
the color of the egg-shell will make
no material difference and the birds
are of good size when he wishes to
dispose of them. The surplus cock
erels and old hens can be sold to the
butcher, the neighbors or eaten on the
home table and in this way will pay
all the expense of raising the Eulets
and, perhaps, a little more. Where
eggs for commercial purposes are to
be produced in large numbers and
other large city market, Single Comb
White Leghorns stand supreme.
Nearly all the large egg farms have
White Leghorns and thev are bred in
larger numbers than all other breeds
combined, being essentially an egg
laying fowl.
The American, breeds-Plymouth
Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode Island
Reds, Buckeyes, American Domi-
niques, Javahs. ETC., are what is
termed the general purpose breeds,
being alike good as egg producers and
for table poultry. There are some
twenty varieties, so one can have am
pie choice as to color. etc.
Most beginners want a nice-looking
flock and some aspire to carrying

away honors at the local poultry
show. At the same time they want
birds which will produce an abund-
ance of eggs, and so should secure
their foundation stock from some
breeder whose hens have n reputation
as layers. Often there Is not so much
dlherence in the laying qualities of
the different breeds as there is be-
tween several strains or families of
the same breed, so it is difficult to
say one variety is better than another;
In each will be found good and poor
layers.
Tho Equipment Required
will depend on the number of fowls
1t is designed t. keep, the amount of
money to be expended and the land
available. Quite a flock of hens can
be kept on a small area where strict
cleanliness is observed. A flock of
dozen hens can be kept in a small,
portable, ready built house, but where
one owns his home 1t is well to put
up permanent building that Will
answer for all time. While 1t should
be neat in appearance there is no
need for its being eXpensive; make
the construction light but strong. The
sides and roof can be of cheap lum-
Der covered with prepared roofing.
but for appearance the front should
be of novelty siding. painted A good
size is 16X24 feet, which is sufficient
for 100 hens. For smaller flock
partition may he built through the
house, making two pens, in one of
which the chicks can be grown, feed
kept, etc. Then. should it be desired
to enlarge the. plant the building is
ample. A house of this size can be
built on most town lots, and while a
small yard is desirable it is not neces-
sary, as hens may be kept confined to
the house continually In this case
it should have large opening in the
front, so as to give the birds outdoor
conditions at all times. Less space
may be allowed per hen when they
are kept in large flocks than in small
flocls, as they have a larger space
to roam over, and it requires no more
labor to feed and care for fifty or a
hundred hens all in one flock than it
does for a flock of ten, while the re-
turns will be five to ten times as great.
Growing stock must have an outside
yard. but healthy chicks can be
grown in limited quarters where the
ground is kept clean by frequent spad-
ing, and they are given plenty of green
food.

LIGHT BRAHMAS
Copyright 1916

Back in the early 'forties ships from
the ports of Asia brought to the
United States fowls which our fathers
remember as Shanghais and Chitta
gongs. Their enorm Gus size was
matter of much comment for they
were large enough to eat from the
top of a barrel Some were red, some
light gray and others dark gray. and
from them fanciers developed the
Asiatic breeds-Cochins and Brahmas.
George +. Burnham, of Boston, gave
them great boost for popularity in
1853 by presenting several to the late
Queen Victoria. and as a result of
this, they Immediately sprang into fa
vor in England. Virgil Cornish and
Mr.. Chamberlain, of Connecticut, were
among the first fanciers of the Light
Brahmas, and did much to improve
and popularize them. A demand was
quickly created, and they have been
extensively bred, especially in the New
England States, since that time.
The American fanciers demand that
