ARKANSAS PEACH CROP
The Arkansas Peach Crop Will Not
 Exceed 2,00G Cars.

Texarkana, June 14,-AccOrding to Van T. Stiwell, of St. Louis, staff cor respondent for the Packers, a big pro- duce publication, who, with E. N, Hop kins of Fort Tmith, represen! ative of the Packer, is gathering information on the yield of this years peach crop in Arkansas the years crop will not exceed 2,000 cars.
 MT. Stwell says that the Highlands section in Pike county and the Nash vile section in Howard county are the only peach growing sections in the state that will produce full crop. The combined yield in these sections is es- timated at 1000 cars.
 The big peach orchard at Horatio, which contains from half million to a million trees, will produce it's last crop this year It will ship from 75 to 100 cars. The orchard will be abandoned after this year, and will be turned into farms. Owing to the fact that it was too large and ex- pensive, this orchard has never been a paying proposition. A. considerable portion of the orchard has already been abandoned for peach culture.

CHILDRENS'
 PLAYGROUND
A. Goldsmith Presents Beautiful and We'll Equipped Park anG Play
 Ground to Children.

Without any blowing Of irumphets or even so much as intimation to the public as to what was in his mind, A Goldsmith of this city, had built and improved childrens playground and park almost in the heart of the resident portion Of the city, and the children were using il for the purpose intended before the public generally became aware of this most generous public enterprice. e. The kids were quick to get wise to what was doing and lost no time in making them selves a home. The new playground is located in Goldsmith's Addition on the east side of town, and is just one block and half cas- of the school building in a magnificent grove of giant trees in little valley threaded by little brook Around this block of ground, Mr. Goldsmith has had con- structed a neat fence and neat stiles built for entrances. The fence and the trunks of the trees were neatly whiteWashed, causing the naturally attractive place to look more attrac- tive. All over the park seats are ar ranged in every conceivable place There are swings everywhere and sea saws where the Ii tie folks play horse. A News man visited the little park Thursday and was agreeably surpris- ed at what he saw. A lady living nearby said that the children fairly lived in the park. They hold little pie nics there frequently. If we were naming this place We would call it Goldsmith's Playground, for that is really What it is. It is true that it is admirably adapted to all the purposes of park, reading, resting, strollng or making love, but on fir sight one instantly realizes that he has come upon first of all modern playground It is situated in one of the prettiest sections of the town and surrounded Ly beautiful homes The park will Hdtuially enhance tHlS very materially as a resident section. Mir. Goldsmith stated that he built this playground for all the children of the town. and nothing will please him more than to know hat they are appreciatng it by us ing it to the fullest It is this pro- gressive, public spirited principle of MT. Goldsmith that has lcng since grown into a habit that has caused him to be placed in the front ranks as d real citizen, and one of whom we are proud
