The report then discusses jointly
the water power bill and the general
leasing bill, saying:
I'VE are cognizant of the fact that
there has been a growing sentiment
among good many people in the west
VINO have become discouraged and
sick and tired of the dog in -the-man-
ger policy that has been pursued in
recent years by the interior depart
ment in relation to coal and water
power developments: and they are
apparently willing to accept almost
anything that gives even a delusive
hope of opening up development. Pos
sibly they should not be blamed. be-
cause they have evidently come to the
conclusion that it is better to fly to
the evils they know not of rather than
further endure those that we have.
Embargo on Development.
There is a general and widespread
desire throughout the west to in some
way raise the present unjust and I'M
necessary government embargo on
the development of our resources To-,
Gated upon the public domain. The
people want to in some way secure the
expeditions development and mainte-
nance and opera ton of our resources
under suitable control and regulations
in the interest the general public.
Every ht-thinking person is in fav-
or of those objects. The question is
how best to secure them. The west
heartily welcomes any wise regulation
as well as the thorough prevention of
any monopoly or waste. But for the
of that we emphatic
ally deny that 1t is at all necessary or
right or fair for the government to
permanently withhold our resources
from private ownership and in addi-
ton tax US for the use of them. We
have been reared to believe that per-
petuated bureaucratic control in our
states is a fragrant violation of good
governmental procedure under our
theory Of government.
Compact Violated.
mo matter how loudly and vigor-
ously and repeatedly it may be pro-
claimed that these lands belong to all
those states were admitted to the
union the United States government
entered into a solemn compact with
each of them that the lands within
their borders should be expeditiously
and in an orderly manner disposed of
to the settlers and be allowed to go
INTO private ownership to help main
.ain the state government; and con-
gress has no moral, legal or constitu-
ional right to repudiate or violate
hat agreement-much less to wanton-
y impose excise duties upon our de- |
,elopment.
Exploitation of the West.
IF the bill is intended by anyone as
| systematic attempt to exploit the
vest and convert into an enormous
md permanent federal revenue-pro-
lucing proposition, practically all of
he remaining natural resources upon

present secretary, then it is an out

Where Policy Is Popular.
There is no question but that this
policy is and for some time will be
popular in the south and north and
east Those sections are not affected
by 1t. and representatives from those
sections honestly think they see an OBJ
portunity OF ultimately getting some
money into the federal treasury by
this program. They will be most aw-
fully disappointed; but they really
believe that now. They have the pow
er and the members in congress to
force this policy upon us of the west
and they may do so. But because
they have the vote to do it does not
make 1t right or fair; and because
they have the power to force this i'm |
perialistic crown land bureaucratic
policy upon us can not make us well
come 1t or advocate 1t when we feel It |
is not right, and when we look upon It |
as high handed outrage upon us.
Bad Government.
This dual form of government In
the west, which the enactment of these
bills will necessarily bring about, is a
bad policy; and we prophesy that it
will prove one of the most gigantic
failures that the government has ever

SAYS WOMEN CAUSE
 LARGE NUMBER FIRES
Sweeping indictment Made by a Fire Prevention Writer
 Who States His Case

Mother, is an unintentional incendiary,' D and "Women cause most fires,'' is the sweeping charges made against American mothers, almost cruel in its severity, made by a fire-prevention writer back ed by the figures and statistics compiled without bias or pre- judice by authorities on the subject.
 Every hour of every day six homes, worth on the average of $5,000, each, are destroyed by fire and mothers are accused of being responsible for four out of every six of these fires. More than 1000 little children have been burned to death every year since these statistics have been compiled. The mothers of these children must assume the responsibility for the fires that caused 800 of these deaths" continues the article
 These figures speak for themselves. It is hardly fair to say that women are more care less than men for most of us will agree that the reverse is true. But mothers being in charge of the home may of course be expected to be blam- ed with most of the fires that destroy homes. Its a matter of relative responsibility. The fol lowing precautions to cut down loss of child life and destruc- tion of dwellings are suggest ed by J. s. Speed of the Ark ansas Actuarial Bureau.
 "Never permit rubbish to accumulate. Keep children away from matches. Have a fire extinguisher in the house and don't hang it too high for the children. Remember that oil mops, oily rags and sweep ing compounds are frequent causes of spontaneous combus- tion. Keep ashes out of wood en boxes. Don't ever use gaso- line indoors or fill a gasoline stove at night. Don't think this advice is meant for the ignor- ant. It is needed by high school and college graduates as daily experience proves.

Backache of any kind is often caused by kidney disorder, which means that the kidneys are not working properly Poisonous matter and uric acid accumu- late within the body in great abundance over working the sick kidneys, hence the congestion of blood causes backache iu the same manner as a similar coh- eestion III the head causes headache.

THE FRYING PAN-A MEN
 ACE TO HEALTH

We must break away from the continual use of fried foods and foods soaked with greasy meat fat if we are to be we'll and happy" says Miss Marcel la Arthur, Specialist in Home Economies of the Extension Division of the University of Arkansas. Such foods are hard to digest and cause intestinal disorders because their diges- tion can not be carried on by the stomach but must be car ried on largely by the intes- tines, thereby often giving the intestines three times as much as they are supposed to do. Is 1t any wonder that they give us trouble and wear out? Give the children and husband a chance. Discard the frying pan and use the roasters and ket- tie more. Instead of fry ing potatoes, boil, mash, bake, cream or scallop them. Avoid
 fried meats continually and have stewS, pot roasts, over coasts or fricasee. Rather than
 cook vegetables with fat meat

CALOMEL SALWAIES
 AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver and you lose 8
 days work.

There's no reason why person should take sickening, salivating calomel when 50 cents buys large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone---a perfect substitute for cal omel.
 It is pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calornel, but it doesn't make you sick and can not salivate.
 Children and grown folks can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is per fectly harmless.
 Galomel is a dangerous drug. It is mercury and attacks your bones. Take dose of nasty calomel today and you will feel weak, sick and nauseated to- morrow. Don't lose days work Take a spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone in- stead and you will wake up feeling great. No more biliousness, constipation, slug gishness, headache, coated tongue or sour stomach. Your druggist says if you don't find Dodson's Liver Tone acts bet- ter than horrible calomel your money b waiting for you.

WARNING TO FARMERS

Hundreds of "second-hand- edo animals are being sold to onr unsuspecting people who have good cotton money with which they expect to buy an extra mule now so that they can farm more land next year, or an extra mare for breeding purposes. Arkansas farmers are paying too much for the horses being shipped from the North at this time.
 In speaking of the South as a dumping ground for poor ami mals, one of the noted breed- ers' magazines in an article published December ' said: The horse trade there does not require the best of animals. It is an opportunity for north ern districts to dispose of un- dersized mares which are not credit to draft horse breed ng ground but are big enough to raise the larger sort of cot ton mule.' These statements are reflection upon the good judgment of our farmers while the mares which the publish CTS of this magazine would have the northern farmers sell us are not in most cases fit to raise any kind of mules. A great share of these animals have poor bone and constitu- tion and as breeders they would produce only scrubs, the very thing our people are trying so hard to eliminate. Arkansas farmers should demand the best and, if necessary, pay a few more dollars for animals they know are first-class.

 WESTERN TEXAS

Editor Journal.-When l wrote last 1 said something about the oil fields. I left there December 5, coming to Okla
 homa City, where l spent the
 night. Leaving there I went to Altus in the extreme south western part of Oklahoma. l passed through some fine country and some not so fine. All of this country is prairie. l saw large piles of corn piled up on the ground, waiting to
 be shelled. This was true about Chickasha and Snyder.
 spent about two hours in Altus. This is a very good town of about 4,000 or 5000 peo- pie. There are a number of good towns along this route, among them being Chickasha, Snyder, Lawton and Altus.
 When I left Altus, turned
 southeast for a run of 78 miles
 which brought me to Wichita
 Falls, Tex, where 1 had to re-.
 main until next day at 2 20 p.
 m. This is quite a city of about
 l6,000 population. Leaving there over Wichita Valley road
 we came in a southwest direc- tion over some pretty rolling prairie country. Lots of it is in native condition, no timber ex- cept mesquite. But when we got near Seymour we got into a farming section. It is a pretty level country. 1 saw farmers breaking land, all using riding blows with three to four hor- ses. A good deal of wheat and oats are raised here.
 We passed a prairie dogl town. They resemble the foxl and build their dens in the ground. Sometimes al rattle snake goes in and theI dog gets out and proceeds tol cover up Mir. Snake. So theyl bury them alive.
 Arrived at Goree, ,Knoxcoun-l ,y, where Bro. L. s. Ballard, l my old friend and pastor, metl ne at the train. He is known % the Newark folks. I leave his place to take up the mis- 'ion work and have been re- ,eived heartily. Just a word l about this part of Texas. The | altitude is HOO feet above sea | level, the land is of reddish | color, mostly sand. The wind | aid blow yesterday. They call | It sand storm, but they dol not come very often.
