had his hay down and to please stay away until he got it in the barn
 First 1 passed between big horse weeds and young sycamores racing to see which could grow the tallest. The sycamores were only about six inches ahead of the weeds. There were all kinds of weeds and things to- gether with pecan and other familiar trees to make me imagine 1 was back home in the black land belt of Texas. There were great fields of cotton and nothing but cotton, on the road, with some corn in the distance. Corn is good Will average twenty-five to thirty-five bushels to the acre. Some will make sixty-five Cotton is going to be very disappointing in yield. The next place I reached was H. Keats, then Mrs. Emma Brown, R. E. Brown and c. P. Younts. 1 was hospitabily entertained for the night at Mrs Browns. At R. E. Browns were gath cred all the young people of the neigh borhood. The occasion was a fare we'll parting with young MT. Keats, who was leaving for Annapolis to en- ter training for the navy All the young folks accompanied him to the train that evening, August 27.
 All these people named above live on their own land and have nice up- to-date modern homes. Mrs. Browns home l could see has every modern convenience, with running water of best quality upstairs and down. They are built near enough to gether to form village with stores, gin, saw mill. etc. Young Mir Brown was build | ing house on the place in order to secure a family to pick cotton. For this purpose he selected the straight est and most beautiful cypress trees to be found in Arkansas. The house will have to burn down or wear out, it will never rot. Such lumber, as a rule, is only used in the finest of residences. The society of this neigh borhood is such that the person par ticipating in their old-time Southern hospitality is fortunate indeed.

As l arose to take up my journey again my nose was greeted with a familiar smell-vermifuge When I was very small boy, in Kentucky this was a great household remedy. When anything got wrong with child then it was supposed to be worms and course of vermifuge was pre- pared for him by the mother. Qui- nine is mean, castor oil is nasty, but in my opinion, based on my early ex- perience, vermifuge is meaner and nastier than all other medicines put together. Nevertheless I believe an occasional dose of the same will be good for some of the rising genera tion.

A Rle Loss To ARkANsAs.


 Three quarters of a mile from this station and half way between the two bikes I found the home of MT and Mrs. Geo. Covington. It was typically Southern, with the colored women ana children waiting for their men to come in from the cotton fields. The Covingtons are nice. agreeable people, living on a hill, but farming river bot tom land MT Covington also does some contracting. The hill is covered with blue granite, it is also plated into town lots. He loaded three cars with loose granite rocks off a street the length of only two blocks. Con- tractors are begging for this rock and they have to pay to get it. They did run a dairy with a nice Jersey herd, headed by Nobles Eclipse This fine animal had many admirers amongst the people of Little Rock and the Jersey cattle fanciers everywhere. He was the finest Jersey in Arkansas and hence in the entire South. His pedigree is framed and has the place of honor on their parlor walls. His grand sire, Noble of Oakland, brought the record price for Jerseys, having sold for $15,000 His great grandmoth CT took first prize in a contest with all breeds for butter producing quali ties. Tn this pedigree are the names of many of the most famous Jersies Returning home Thursday night. Au- gust 23, one of their colored men in. formed them that Noble's Eclipse was dead in the pasture. He had been dead about two days and was su swelled up that they could form no idea of the cause of his death. Had he been permitted to continue ser vice he would have been of inestima- ble value in improving the Jersey cat tie of the state.

Monday morning, September 3, was at A. L. Pritchard's flour mill, fourteen miles west of Little Rock, when man came in and informed me that a mad dog had just passed, biting one of MT. Pritehard's hogs.
 MT. Pritchard had just informed me that his brother-in-law, l.. H. Le Mas ter. while hunting stock two miles northeast of his place, had seen I panther. MT. Le Master was descend ing steep mountain when he heard something in the water coming down a spring branch. When it got to an open space he saw that it was a panther. It must have scented him for it laid down fiat in the bushes in stantly His stock hunting for that evening ended then and there. Sev- tral other people report having heard the panther's scream in the same vi- cinity the day before.

READING SOCIALISTS ALL
GET ON BALLOT

The Socialists, of Reading, Pa,
had field day and verified their
prediction predictions, winning
hands down, with J. Henry Stump,
Socialist, leading candidates of all
parties by 1000.
All Candidates Placed
All party candidates won a place
on the final ballot. They are: L.
Birch Wilson, Jr., a news writer
and president of the local Peoples
council; Charles F. Sands, machinist;
and George w. Snyder, president of
the Musicians union. Stump is pres
ident of the Federated Trades coun-
Gil. Reading is city of over 100,-
900 inhabitants.
The old party politicians were in
fear of the growing Socialist strength
and resorted to every trick the accu-
INFLATED experience of practical poll
tics could suggest to beat the work
ingman's party. The press aided
this, being particularly anxious to
hit the Peoples Council.

ROCKEFELLER TO DRAW

LABOR UNREST AND
STRIKES CAUSED BY
WAR PROFITEERING"

ATLANTIC CITY-Direct respon-
sibility for strikes and the spirit of
unrest in the ranks of labor since the
war began was placed on the shout
ders of unpatriotic profiteering Amer
lean business men by Secretary of
Labor Wilson, addressing the war
convention of American business
with the United States chamber of
commerce.
81 now tell you American business
men that this is no time to stand
upon your prejudices, nor to insist
upon profiteering, as many of your
members have been doing. If you
couldn't collect abnormal profits in
normal times you should not take
advantage of the necessities of your
country in this time of crisis"
Admits Huge Profits
Labor has been restless, Wilson
said, because word has gone forth
that the iron and steel manufactur-
ers are making 200 to 400 per cent
profit, and that shipping, mining and
men of other industries are making
enormous profits.
"This feeling has been justified"
Wilson continued. "My investiga-
ton of the coal industry in the east
ern states proved it in one of many
instances because we found pro-
ducers were extorting a SIS and Sc
margin on coal. You should well
come price fixing on your products,
because it means a logical standard
of pay for labor"

received part of it, unless it follows
with demand for full investi-
cation.
The capitalist press just glorifies
in building up "straw men" and the
government and it's secret service
agents are quite capable of building
up cases to further their own ends.
The Democratic National campaign
committee had more reasons for
keeping out of war during the last
election than we could print in this
paper in six weeks but we would not
insinuate that the Democratic party
would stoop SO low for a measly
$4,000. That party has always
had slush fund given it for its
political campaigns but it would not
think of taking German gold even
though it was opposed to war and
had candidate who had "kept us
out of war;" The party never has
given much concern as to where it's
campaign funds came from, all it
wanted was the funds and it always
got it.
Secret service men are apt to make
mistakes and run across something
that they were not supposed to un-
earth. News papers are apt to get
hold of these scoops" before the
authorities and there's the devil to
pay. But-well-you see-Oh 90

FORD'S SON EXEMPT;
WORKERS MUST SERVE

DETROIT, Mich.-That the draft
will spare no rich mans son was
amply demonstrated here when Edzel
Ford, an athlete, son of Henry Ford,
was granted exemption from service.
Edzel Ford had no difficulty in
passing the physical test but filed
an industrial exemption claim, stat
ing that he was engaged in an in
dustry which was vital for the sue
cessful prosecution of the war. Edzel
is the head of a recently incorporated

The Highland Park exemption board,
saw the justice of his claim and
readily granted exemption.
On the other hand hundreds of
common workingmen who filed de-
tendency claims were turned down.
Scores of conscientious DIRECTORS
were treated similarly. One board
told Socialist, who claimed exemp-
ton on the ground that his con
science forbids killing to ego and
drown himself"

CONGRESS LEAVES BERNSTORFF
$4,000 MYSTERY IJNSOLVED

After starting the jingo press out
on hue and cry for the organiza-
ton that is supposed too have got
part of the German "slush fund.-"
congress suddenly drops the whole
thing.
We are Of the opinion that the
people of this country ought to know
who received that "slush fund" for
the simple reason that there are doz-
ems or organizations that have been,
and are still, working for peace and
against war. If any organization
is willing to accept money from the
Prussian military machine for peace
propaganda purposes we want to be
in a position to know who they are
because in our. opinion they are worse
traitors to the people than are the
gang of plutocratic plunderers who
are hollering for war because they
profit by war.
The Everett Daily Herald does not
like Senator Norris innuendo that
Bernstorff sent the note at the time
President Wilson was working for
peace, but can the Herald give a
good reason why this "slush fund"
business should not be sifted to the
bottom right away? We do not
insinuate that President Wilson re-
ceived some of the German swag nei-
Their do we wish the Herald nor the
rest Of the dirty capitalist press to
insinuate that any other peace party
