County Agent Williams
 Says Sow More Wheat
Recommends Treating 5 e e d With Formaldehyde to
 Destroy Smut Spores.

1 notice in the Charleston Ex- press a timely article by the editors on the importance of sowing wheat for home consump- tion.
 There are also many other ad- vantages of wheat. It is best to seed in the fall of course, conse- quently a cover crop is on the land during the winter which prevents the washing of the soil, stores up plant feod which would otherwise go on down the creek for some Mississippi planter. It makes an excellent winter pasture which most of US will need possibly as never before. And too, what is more beautiful than a dark green wheat field in the dead of winter, especially if a few cattle, hogs, and horses are seen here and there over it.
 In the preparation of the seed bed it is best to disk before and after breaking, then well disk into the soil. Follow the disk ing with the harrow. Let the seed bed settle for say three weeks before planting.
 The Alabama Blue Stem or the Red May are good varieties. If you know the source of the seed it is advisable to find out if smut was seen in the field last season. If so, treat the seed with formaldehyde, forty per cent solution, using one pint to fifty gallons of water, soak the seed in this solution twenty minutes, then spread out to dry, placing a sheet over them to hold in the

Local Schools to Open Monday With Capable and Ehci-
 ent Corps of Teachers.

What promises to prove one of the best andmost successful terms in the history of the local schools will begin here next Monday morning, September 25th, when it is expected that the enroll ment will be the largest we have had for years. The prediction that the 1916-17 term of the Ozark schools will be one of the most successful yet, is based upon the fact of the excellent financial condition of our dis trict, and further, to the splen.. did judgment the Board of Di- rectors has exercised in the matter of securing one of the most efficient and capable corps of teachers to be found in the state. This, coupled with the fact that the Board IS giv- ing the school matters the same strict attention they give their individual affairs, and commend able cooperation which is being manifested by many of the patrons is bound to make of the term huge success. It is ex- pected that the enrolment this year will include many students from other districts.

ALL WORKED UP.

The Waco Times-Herald Is all work
ed up over the enormous and needless
waste OF the peoples money in fat sal
aries and expensive commissions that
could be abolished and never missed
SO far as the service they render Is
concerned. 1t is really alarming and
The Eagle has, in its feeble way, d.
rected attention to 1t many times.
Something should be done, some agita'
ton should be started that would
make retrenchment the paramount Is
sue in the State campaign. With re-
trenchment as the leading issue, out
Of the discussion which would follow,
some concrete plan would develop by
which this needed retrenchment could
be started. AS 1t is now, nothing will
ever be done and 1t will grow worse
from year to year. In discussing the
matter the Times.Herald says:
"The Times-Herald doesn't attempt
to fix the responsibility for this vast
increase in the governmental estab
lishment down at Austin.
THAT isn't the question before the
house.
"The Times-Herald wants to know
II the people like this sort Of thing
IF they do not, they should be cast
ing about for a way to remedy II.
"And they are not going to remedy
It by shouting themselves hoarse for
particular individuals.

all along the line, not spasmodic, but
steady, that will eliminate in lopping
off the many useless branches of the
tree.

is in overcoming the present method

Question Of Changing Paving pIsh 81

Auess'en OF changing Paving plah o.

At called session Of the CIR.
Council this morning with Aldermen
Tyler Haswell, B. U. Simms. ]. q.
Doane, John G. Wick and w. g. VIII
son, Jr., City Engineer A. s. Adams
and City Secretary Smith present, the
matter Of changing the original plan
of the paving Of West Anderson Street
was discussed. The original plan Tor
this street was to have a park In the
center Of the street ten feet wide and
running three blocks, In which the
city was to plant trees and grass and
keep same up in first class conditiouZ
but since the paving has started some
OF the residents along this street want
to eliminate the park and pave the
entire street. To pave the street all
the way across and not have the bark
would cost considerable more than
would the original plan. After con.
siderable discussion resolution was
passed by the Council to the effect
that they would allow the street to
be paved without the park provided
the property owners would pay for
the extra expense.
