FLOODS PLAYING HAVOC WITH ALL
 R. B. TRAFFIC
Iron Mountain s Service South suspended-Cotton
 Belt Trains Detoured.

Railroad service on the Iron Noun tain south of Pine Bluff has been an nulled.
 As was stated in The Graphic yes terday morning. the wash-out south of Warner Tuesday night caused service to be suspended.
 A greater expanse of track is now under water, and there are several washouts, these being between Warner and Rockville. From just beyond Grady to beyond Dumas, the track is under water at number of points, and these points are increasing in number. service is continued, although several trains have been annulled, these be- ing accommodations and through trains which could not be handled over the regular runs south of the city From Grady north, there is service sufficient to handle the busi- ness.
 Superintendent T. E. Shea of the Valley division of the Iron Mountain, has been at Grady, Warner and that section all of yesterday and last night, and worked ihdefatfgably. Eot only to save and protect the railroad right Of way and roaabed,. but-to assist the flood sufferers.
 MT Shea was particularly active ill behalf of the Gould refugees, and helped materially by providing special train to carry boats to Gould for rescue work.
 Cotton Belt Continues.
 The Cotton Belt has been more fortunate. It has had some trouble in Arkansas county, principally on the Gillett branch. High water com pels transfer of passengers, baggage and mail from the main line trains to the Gillett trains, at Stuttgart, and later prevented the trains from reach- ing Gillett
 Assistant Superintendent c. J. Lake of the road announced last night that it is confidently expected trains would run through to Gillett by to-, night, workmen having virtually com- pleted arrangements which would al- low this resumption of service.
 Cotton Belt passenger and freight trains are entering St. Louis over the Chicago & Eastern Illinois and the Illinois Central roads, through Illmo, this detouring being necessary be- cause of washouts on the lSon Noun tain between Illmo and St. Louis. Superintendent Elmer Richards has been in that section for several days and was due to return home early this morning.
 Local Yards Affected.
 Although no considerable damage has been done in the local yards of the two roads, there has been much inconvenience because of the high water. The water covered all ties where they passed over the ravine in the eastern portion of the city; switches were covered; little could be seen except the rails, and at some places even these were under water switchmen had difficulty doing their work; but little actual damage was done.
 Empty box cars were used by local people as temporary storage places for merchandise and household goods, and even as moving vans" through the kindness of the railroad officials, who appreciated tho conditions, ana who made it plain that the railroads arc always desirous of doing every thing possible to help, in emergen- cies.

SlLAGE RELISHED BY STOCK
No Winter Roughage That Is Better No Danger in Feeding it to
 Breeding Animals.

For wintering the entire breeding herd there is no roughage that is better than siIage All the animals will relish ration containing it, and it will create an appetite for other feeds Cows that are fed op all the siIage they will consume, along with good hay, will go through the winter in fine shape and make gains. Some dry coarse fodder or straw should always be kept before animals get ting silage, as it redIces the amount of silage to be consumed and keeps <. .s&isss }a'ss!5- tga%S 1>a'1'sso $ lOoss, The suceulent reed will cause t2e breeding cows to give good flaw of milk, even though the calf be born in mid-winter, and thrifty calf will result. If the silage is free from moldy or rotten spots there is no dan ger of feeding it to breeding cows.
 Silage is especially good for calves that have just been weaned. They take to this ration quicker than to dry feed and there is usually little loss due to weaning. The silage should be supplemented with good cowpea, clover or alfalfa hay, and the calves should have a small amount of grain. A mixture of one-half corn chops and one-half cottonseed or peanut meal is excellent

position and try elsewhere. But now, after run of hard luck which had reduced him to a position which he had never contemplated before, Frank was glad enough of the chance of po sition at day laborers wages. And he had ruined everything by his dream ing
 "I'll give up. Fate's against mel" said Frank angrily.
 He turned out of Eppingham into the woods. Eppingham was the last station on the line, beyond it stretched a great eXpanse of state forest. It was early June, and summer was call ing. Frank could have spent the whole summer in camp without a quam. He resolved to strike the trail on the chance of picking up summer work at a club or bungalow.
 He had gone about a mile when he was startled to hear screams from the bend of the trail. A moment later there appeared young woman, mount ed on bay horse, which was evidenly running away with her. She was hold ing on for dear life, and the horse had a frightened look; also his ears lay flat back against his head.
 Frank did not hesitated an instant. He leaped forward and planted him. sel in the middle of the roadway. As the horse reared he caught at the bridle. It dragged him several yards and stopped puffing and snorting. Still holding the bride, Frank extended his hand to the frightened girl, who col lapsed in heap upon the ground be- fore him.
 Tt was bear frightened my horse," she gasped. "He has never run away with me before."
 It was some minutes before she was able to stand on her feet, and then she was trembling all over. Frank thought he had never seen such a pretty girl before.
 T don't know how to thank you enough" she said. Father hates to have me go riding by myself, but I al- ways laughed at him. I shall know better in the future"
 You must let me see you home," said Frank gallantly.
 T can't ride Polyphemus again"
 If you like, I'll lead him home for you," said Frank.
 The suggestion proved agreeable and, as the girl was at length recov- ering from her fright, they set off along the road together, Frank hold ing the bride and the girl at his side. As they chatted gaily, all his past life rose up to confront him, What a fool he had been, regular rolling stone,

HAIRY WITCH OF MUCH VALUE
Used in North Carolina in Rotation With Corn and Cotton to Build
 Up Soil Productivity.

About ten years go, on q piece of poor clay-loam soil at the North Caro- lima station, vetch was used in rotation with corn and cotton to build up pro- ductivity. The soil was in run down, humus-deffci It condition and would produce onIs meager crops. as it tended to run together and cement after each rain.
 Within five years, by the use of vetch in the rotation and the judicious application of commercial fertilizers. the productivity of the land was in- creased more than POO per cent, and the soil was brought to a loose and friable condition. The yetch was sown each fall after the corn or cotton and plowed into the soil during the follow ing spring after it had about com pleted it's growth.

They have added cultures with loops of hair to other high and stately styles, and are showing others with small putfS and several short curls pinned at the crown of the head in the back, for those who like a lower hairdress.
 Among high cultures there is one design in which band of waved hair is wound about the head like a wide band of ribbon, near the forehead. It allows q few ordA fly waves and ring lets to escape abe dat the face, and the back hair is arrahged in puffs at the top of the crown. This is an unusual and very finished-looking hairdress.
 A similar c0iffure is shown in the picture. In this design all the hair is waved and the front hair is combed back over foundation which raises it at the top of the head. At the back a cluster of curlS is pinned below the crown and a band of waved hair is brought across above the nape of the reck. It will be seen that ornamental pins are an essential part of this coif- fure-they finish and support t.
 The cOfffure at the left is much sim pier. All the hair is mareelled for 1t and combed toward the top of the crown. It is finished in a small coil

Takinq .N 1susn of Birds.

The United States biological survey is now making it's third annual count of birds, with the aid of volunteer emu merators all over the country. Each enumerator undertakes to count the number of breeding pairs of each spe- cies found on selected area of 40 to so acres and the count actually con- sists in an enmeration of the male birds found in the course of a few early morning reconnoissances. From the figures thus obtained estimates are made of the bird population in the va rious sections of the country. This year the survey is making q special effort to obtain statistics from the semiarid desert and mountain regions of the West, and also from the fruit districts of the Pacific coast and the South Atlantic and Gulf states.

 "Henceforward, I'll be rolling stone no more," said Frank Latham, as he stepped out of the train at Epping- ham. I'm going to get a job and SUCK to it. I'm twenty-six, and it's tune l settled down somewhere. En- plnghams good enough for me. I'll become local magnate and own half the town, and be an influence in the county, and maybe I'll go into politics and perhaps wind up as governor, or even"
 Hey, young feller! Get out of that!"
 It was sad awakening from his dream. Frank had inadvertently stepped off the road and into the flow CT beds of Il real local magnate, to judge from the splendor of the house and the extensive grounds. And when one is in old clothes one must dream carefully.
 With low apology, Frank turned to make off. But the elderly gentleman who had shouted to him came running up. wild with excitement.
 What do you mean by walking over my geranium beds?" he demanded fu- riously.
 Il beg your pardon" said Frank. Il didn't think where I was going"
 You don't have to explain that" said the man wrathfully. Get out of here, and don't let me see your face again, or I'll have you run out of town. I'll know you next time we meet" he added
 Frank made off; there was nothing else to do, in fact. A little way down the street he stopped to ask a native who owned the big place.
 That's Mir. Stone" said the man grinning. q guess you've heard ot him, haven't you?"
 'The man who's building the big dam?"
 That's him, sure.'
 "Confound It." thought Frank. Fol he had come to Eppingham, investing his last ten dollars on the train fare because he heard that there was to bt unlimited work on Mir. Stones dam.
 He had been gently born. but hC had not made the most of his oppor tunities. The call of the road was i'm peratfve to him. Again and again ht had settled down, only to fling up hi,
