Will Spend the Winter in Arkansas

w. A. Parsons who owns what is generally known as the Sinyard farm south of town, writes from Douglas, Kansas, ordering the Tribune with the enclosed letter:
 "Dear Editor and the many readers of the Tribune: As winter will soon be here again l will soon be travelling for old Arkansas to take up winter quarters.
 At present l am living 32 miles east of Wichita in the edge of the oil fields. There are lots of wells being put down. One well was brought in a few days ago at Towanda which is flowing 10000 barrels of oil per day. The main oil fields lay around Au- gusta and Eldorado.
 We are having some fine cool wealth CT now, and have had one light frost. It was very hot and dry summer here. It was dry thru June and July. The corn crop throughout the state of Kansas will not amount to very much. The kaffir crop looks fine and will mature if the frost holds off long enough. The alfalfa has made three cuttings. Oats and wheat were fairly good and prairie hay will make about one-half crop but the fruit is not very good. If any one down there has as much as a car load of apples for sale write me.
 We have had lots of rain here every since August. Farmers are very busy now cutting corn and getting ready to SOW wheat. Lots of wheat will be own this time. Hoping to see you soon, I am, Yours truly. w. A. Parsons.

JEFFERSON HIGHWAY

Lake Village, Ark, Sept. 15, 1917. Mir. Andrew L. Kinney,
 Green Forest, Ark.
 Dear Sir:-1 take pleasure in notifying you that Judge Toney and myself are continuing the work sttrtel at Berry Vile so that no part of the Ozark cut off of the Jefferson Highway will re mah incomplete and I would respect fully report that We have been busy In northeast Louisiana, in West Carroll. Richland, Franklin, Catahoua and La Sale Parishes have been thorouy yhlY organized for road work, that they will build from where our road in Chi cot county leaves off over the Bayou Mason Ridge. ridge above overflow on to Alexandria, Louisiana, hard sur face road and this will complete the Ozark cutoff.
 l believe 1 am safe in saying to you now that we will be officially desig- mated as part of this great highway system. We certainly feel proud of the work you are doing in northwest ern Arkansas. We attended meet ing Wednesday at Winnsboro, La. i, there were five hundred citizens pres ent from five parishes and reported that the bond issue to build the road would carry by vote of ten to one. The Highway Commissioner of Louis and was present and ordered his sur veyors to begin immediately and to lay out this road. A road in Louisiana in order to secure state aid must run from county site to county site and of course as you know federal aid is bas- ed on roads use as post roads, star route and rural route. 1 feel like you would like to hear what we have been doing at this end of the line and would thank you to rIpublish this letter and help encourage our friends up there in road building or else copy the same and send it to those in Boone, Polk, Carroll, and Newton county, Arkansas, whom you know to be interested in our great undertaking. want to say to you that our combi- nation of hillbillies and swamp demo- crats from southeast Arkansas form ed at Eureka Springs is going to deliv CT the goods and believe there will come d time when we shall all feel proud to have done our bit in the estab- lishment and building of what purports to be one of the most important systems of highway construction ever under taken in the state of Arkansas
 Very respectfully,
 G. E. Shell.

avenue that spreads out quite as wide as it is from one side to the other of the public square of Harrison
 Without asking a question as to direction or what was what, 1 was soon meandering along the avenue. looking at monuments that filled little plots of ground here and there in the direction, I evenually learned, of the White House Thinking it advisable to inquire so as to get some sort Of bearings, I learned from an obliging colored gentleman that the building looming up so conspicuously several blocks in the opposite direction from what 1 was going was the Capitol, and that the heavily wooded square of four blocks or so at the end of the avenue the other way was the White House grounds.
 l strolled on in that direction and soon found myself in company with an employ in the navy building, the only person I had met or overtaken for a block He was telling me something of Washington, as we halted for him to turn toward the navy building, when a mounted policeman galloped toward us with orders to move on.' My new acquaintance informed me that we were near the entrance where the suf- fragists had been pulling off their banner posting stunts and that there in that vicinity. I walked entirely around the enclosure, surveying the scene with interest, of course. The White House grounds are rolling, very much, the land apparently being left just as nature designed it, the trees growing more after the forest fashion, as it appeared to me, than to the idea of a landscape gardener. The flowers were magnificent in the extreme, the place giving evidence of having the last word in attention I had no ad- mission to the White House or the grounds, nor will any other toursit have during the war; so 1 was inform ed. It had been the privilege of wis itors in Washington previous to the break with Germany to exercise much freedom about the premises often be ing received at the White House and some times meeting the president. But the bars are up now for possibly d long time to come.
 I was surprised to note that the White House is not larger nor more magnificent in outward appearance than hundreds of private homes I have seen, in my time, but such is not to be wondered at when it is taken into consideration that it was the first public building erected in Washington and stands now practically as it did one hundred years ago. great deal of it being constructed of wood.
 But this chapter is too long already. Next week l will try to get a swifter move on me and cover more territory
