figured, part of which VIII be paid
from the contingent fund of the de-
partment, the remainder to be met
from the proceeds of a sale of old
instruments formerly used by the
board of public works. The job, in
Mr.. Lynch's opinion, should not re-
quire more than a couple of weeks If
conditions are favorable.

the Paxton creek improvement job
too. A gap of several hundred feet
has been standing in the great con-
crete gutter just north of State street,

is being pushed along. The asphalting
gangs next will patch up Cameron
street after which the Hill streets will
occupy their attention. The next big
paving job will be the surfacing OF
the approach to the Maclay street
bridge, eastward from Seventh street,
and Honey street, from Chestnut to
Mt. Pleasant Bids for the grading

tween the toe of the embanKmenr and
the eastern edge of the granolithic
walk, is more than a hundred feet
wide at some points and some 270O
yards of earth were used to fill in the
level the space. The dirt by the way,

In order to present a green appear
ance as early as possible. the park de-
partment has sown the long stretches
alternately with oats, rye and timothy

Water in Farm homes.

Running water in the kitchen is a hope that many farm women will see realized this year. This is one of the ways by which the silent partners are removing drudgery from farm life. Efficiency is the keynote of the day, and the women have found that pack ing water by hand is inefficient when for small cost, the water can be piped to faucets in their kitchens. A simple system consisting of Il pump attached to the kitchen sink, with pipes and connections, can he installed for S1S. The next system. costing about S35, consists of force pump, kitchen sink with waste pipe. and l,l tank to which the water is pumped and is ready for use at all times. An. other system supplying both hot and cold water can he put in for about sI9. Other more elaborate systems with bathroom outfits have been designed for those who want greater comforts.

LIKE PIECE OF FARMLAND
Remarkable Cave That Was Discov- cred by Merest Accident in
 Mine in Arizona.

A blast in the Shattuck mine in Arizona, set for the purpose of bring ing down ore, was responsible for the discovery of remarkable cavern, now known as Shattuck cave. which has yielded unusual mineral specimens, some of the finest of which have re ccntly been added to the collection at the Michigan College of Mines. When ihe miner who had been working in that part of the 3Od.foat level rcturned with the night shift he found great opening that reaeher farther than his light could penetrate. Looking up- ward. he could see tiny lights flashing, and, i'll the belief that they were Stais, he ran back to the shaft and declared that he had blasted a hole clear through to the surface. On investi- @ating, the mine official found that che blast had opened great circular cay ern 315 feet in diameter and 1751 feet high, which seemed like q piece of fairyland. On the roof myriads of crys- tals reflected the lights of the miners lamps. The walls. the roof, and the floor were covered with great clusters of crystals, and near the center of tho cavern a mass of stalactites 10 feet long, hung from the ceiling like n great chandelier. For tue most part the crystals were pure white. but, in places where the Altering waters had contained iron and copper great trans parent stalaetites and stalagmites, some ruby-red, others clear emerald green or azure blue, added to the beau " of the scene

BREEDING SEASONS.

Arkansas farmers who are in- tending to get into the business of growing good livestock should grasp one of the first lessons that of having regular breeding seasons for hogs, cattle and horses. Good hog breeders in Arkansas want pigs to be farroWed somewhere be- tween February 20 and March 20 and when two filters per year are desired, from September 90 to October 90. Farmers should breed dairy cows to freshen about the middle of September, after the bad fly time and with early rye for pasture and other fresh pastures after the fall rains and when but ter and cream command good prices. Beef COWS should freshen from the middle of February to the middle of March when spring pas lures are coming on for both COWS and calves and early enough to glye the calves a good start for good growth by November for the calf market and they will be old enough then for the dry feed of the winter. These are simple lessons and yet very necessary if farmers are to succeed in meeting the market demands. Why not start now and breed gifts and sows about the first of November. Farmers are urged to consult their county agents about this or write the Ex- tension Division and U s. Depart ment of Agriculture. Fayetteville or Little Rock, for bulletins on live stock.

START SCHOOLS EARL

The best crop in Arkansas is our crop of boys and girls. We won der if the fathers and mothers are always careful to give these boys and girls a real square deal in the matter of schools. In too many cases the schools seem to be in session only when the boys and girls can do nothing else. The best inheritance the farmers of Arkansas can leave their children
 is good education. Now that the cotton is being picked out early the rural schools should bs started early and then the tax term should be heightened by fee term.

FIGHT THE BOIL WEEvlL.

Unless the farmers of Southern Arkansas respond to the suggeS- tions made by the Extension Divis- ion and by the bankers and others to ploW cotton fields this fall. seed rye on sloping fields and burn trash along ditches, roads, fences and about buildings. they will have the fun of planting cotton next spring to feed the boil weevils. Of course if we have a severe winter proba- bly, 30 per cent of the WeeVils will be destroyed, but it is not safe to take the risk. Then. even if that percentage should be destroyed, there would be enough left in many fields to destroy the entire crop, Cotton is being picked early this year and many fields should be powed before the first of Novem- Der, if possible, and everybody should about that time get busy with rake and fork and torch and old Arkansas should have the finest Clean Up Campaign in her whole history. Arkansas farmers are go- ing to grow their feed crops and food stuffs next year, are going to live at home and yet they are going to grow cotton in the cotton counties, better cotton and more pounds per acre than heretofore, provided the boil weeVil does not destroy it after it is planted. The Extension Service of the College of Agriculture and U. $. Depart mant of Agriculture is anxious to slve Arkansas farmers the misery of losing their cotton next summer but this danger can be met be- tween now and December and it cannot be met next summer.

WASTE PLACES.

On too many farms in Arkansas there are ugly waste places that could grow great volume of food for family or feed for livestock These places are now oVergroWn with weeds and detraet from the selling value of the farm, Why not blow these phases now and SOW to rye. wheat, or oats for pasture for chickens, pigs, COWS or horses. Why not study to utilize these waste places by moving fences and throwing them into fields or fenc- ing them for patches of eoWpeas, soybeans, rape. etc, for the pigs. The average farm of forty acres in Arkansas could grow enough feed on the waste places for a COW and dozen pigs.
