THINKS PINE BLUFF
HAS GREAT FUTURE

J. A. Wilkinson, advertising mana
ger for F. B. Barmister & Son, nation
wide real estate developers, is in the
city handling the advertising cam
paign for the Mills auction sale of
lots, which will take place Friday and
Saturday of next week.
Mr.. Wilkinson travels all over the
United States, and Mr.. Bannister and
he have sold property in most of the
states of the union. 1t is the business
of Mr.. Wilkinson to study local condi-
tions intheir relation to real estate
values. He has been here since last
Saturday, and he says he has never
seen a community with promises Of a
brighter future than Pine Bluff.
His firm has just completed auction
sales in Kansas City, Mo-, Pittsburgh,
Pa, and Parkersburg, West Va, and
is booked for sales in other parts of
the country for some months. They
have sold over 100000 lots in the
United States.
An interesting feature Of Mr.. Ban
nister's work is the number of times
he has revisited places to make auc-
ton sales, and in nearly every instance
he is thanked by one or more former
patrons for having started them on
the road to prosperity.

AUTO TRADE GROWING.

Nearly 10000 Autos Have Been
Licensed in Arkansas This Year.
Little Rock, June 15.-With over
half year yet to collect automobile
tax, the state highway department has
in 1916 issued practically 11,70O tags.
This number will reach $4,000 by the
end of the year if the prediction of
Commissioner w. B. Owen is accurate.
Conditions have changed materially
in the auto trade in Arkansas in
very few years, or the people are
more liberal in their patronage of the
states licensing bureau. In 1911,
when the state first began collecting
an automobile tax, 500 tags were pur-
chased, and the supply was not ex-
hausted. The next year 3,615 tags
were issued. In 1914, 5,642 tags were
sold, and in 1915 there were 1921
automobiles bearing Arkansas license
tags. At this rate there will be $4,000
automobiles in Arkansas in 1920.

GEORGIA PRODUCTS DAY.

The lesson Of Georgia Products Day
is in essence that of self-help and self
reliance. 1t looks forward to the tine
when Georgia energy and alertness
will produce all the principal food
products that it uses and have an
ndance left over to sell to the
PEOPLE of other states. It's encourage
ment of home products is. of course,
not limited to articles of food, but ap-
plies to everything made or grown in
this state. But because the greatest
present need of the state is the raising
Of more food crops, the weight of at
tention is now given to this feature.
The celebration of the day this year
Will take place on November IS. The
occasion has been officially designated
in proclamation by the governor
urging its general observance. Many
attractive prizes for Georgia products
dinners have been offered by the Geor-
gia Chamber of Commerce, under
whose auspices the celebrations will
be held. There will be appropriate
prizes for public dinners, dinners at
hotels. home dinners, and dinners by
domestic science classes.
Georgia Products Day is direct and
effective means of encouraging greater
diversity of farming in this state, with
out the requirement of which Georgia
viii never attain to its full measure of
development and prosperity. Georgians
everywhere should participate in the
celebrations this year and make the
occasion a statewide success. They
could engage in no more patriotic I'M
dertaking.

1.-the national capital in spite of the
war cloud which lowered over the
country" says war geography bull
letin issued from the Washington
headquarters of the National Geo
graphic Society.
1T was in this picturesque spot that
Rudolph the Black established the
first capital of the principality known
as Wallachia, in the thirteenth CEN
fury. The town did not enjoy its
court distinction long, however, for
it was superseded by Curtea d'Arg-
esch, also founded by Rudolph, 80
miles to the southwest And these
places were succeeded in turn by Tir-
govitese and Bucharest.
with a population not exceeding
$4,000, Campulung's chief industrial
interests are centered in its paper
mills which are supplied with power
by the turbulent Tergului, tributary
of the river Argesch. The town forms
the apex of an inverted triangle, the
other two points being the important
Transylvanian cities of Hermannstadt
and Kronstadt. 1t is some fifteen
miles south of Torzburg or Torcsvar
Pass, from which Kromstadt is 20
miles in an airline to the northeast
and Hermannstade is 55 miles to the
northwest. The village of Torzburg,
at the northern entrance to this pass,
has an imposing castle which stands
on the site of the medieval fortress of
Dietrichstein, built by a band of
Teutonic knights in 1912.
Rudolph, or Rudu, founded Camp
ulung near the site of the old Roman
camp, and one of his first cares was
to erect a castle and a church. In the
latter the visitor will find portrait
of the founder bearing the following
inscription: Great Radu Negru Vol
vode, first of the descending lords of
the Roumanian land
"a church of far greater interest
than this monument to the piety of
the first Wallachian prince to march
over the Pennsylvania Alps from the
Hungarian plateau and settle perm
anently in the fertile valley of the
Argesch and it's affluents is the little
chapel attached to the monastery of
Namoeshti, which clings to the side Of
a mountain just an hours ride by
carriage from Campulung. Legend
says that the site for the building
was selected following the discovery
of picture in hollow rock. The
finder dug deeper and there was sud-
denly revealed to him a large cavern
which subsequently was converted in
to a church.
Through a branch line, 80 miles
long, between Campulung and Pot
eschi. the first capital of Wallachia
enjoys railway communication with
the modern capital of the united prov
ince of Wallachia and Moldavia The
airline distance between the old and
the new seats of government is S9l
miles.
