 And Then the Scrimmage Started.
 MT. Trawick replied that the bikes were built and the improvements made by the people who are now beg ging the legislature to permit them to become a part of Pulaski county
 There is no opposition" he said, except from the two Lonoke repre- sentatives, and they do not even live in the district. All that we are asking is that the bill be referred to com mittee so that those interested may be heard 1t is MT. Alexander's bill, and he is not able to be here tonight on account of illness in his family Anyone who opposes this reference is not worthy to represent Linoke coun- ty'
 Striding down the aisle with a bel ligerent air MT Waggoner asked:
 Do you mean to say that I am not worthy to represent Lonoke county in the legislature?"
 .'I do, sir, if you insist that"
 At that juncture the bout started But as proper warning had been giv- ing the decks were all, cleared for ae- tion, and one fast and furious round told the story. MT. Waggoner struck first Several blows were exchanged, but the fighters had clinched, and they were operating in too close quarters for more than short-arm punches.
 Speaker Cazort pounded his gavel for order, and the ergeant-at-arms courageousiy rushed into the melee with his imposing mace, which had hitherto been used only for ornament and to pound the floor when the law makers became too noisy.
 A dozen valiant statesmen, needless of the combatants, or enfilading fire from unforeseen quarters, rushed il between them and with great difficult ty separated the doughty warriors, who strained to get within striking or c1inching distance again. Each was forced to his seat and the even course of lawmaking was resumed.
 The motion to postpone indefinitely was then put, on a standing vote, and carried, 42 to IS, thus disposing of the annexation proposition for this session.
 Later Mir Waggoner apologized for his action, saying that he had acted in the heat of passion, and intended no disrepsect to the house.

z. o. Carpenter, PuLaski Heights Agriculfurist, AdDises the Rais-
 ing of Spring Oats

two or three weeks before planting time with a two-horse blow, then to SOW the oats broadcast at the proper time and to harrow them in with a disk harrow Where a disk is not available the oats should be narrowed in with spiked tooth harrow, while the land is uneven after breaking. Growth may be hastened by rolling or dragging with plank drag.
 Where a drill is available, drilling always gives best results on we'll pre- pared soil. The stand and yield are better and less seed is required. Where the oats are drilled, two to two and one-half bushels per acre should be sown. Where they are broad casted, three to three and one-half bushels are required for best results.
 Spring oats should not be seeded too early, as late cold weather will damage them. If seeded too late they will not make sufficient growth before hot weather For the same reason early maturing varieties like Full ghum, Burt, Kherson and Sixty-Day Russian should be sown
 The best average date for seeding in Little Rock territory usually is be. tween March 1 and 15.
 The oats may be harvested either for hay or for the grain. The hay is more valuable for feeding than either timothy or prairie hay. The former now sells for S20 ton and the latter at $15. Where grown on good land
The Pulaskian., 1917-03-02
By c. o. Carpenter.

{Agriculturist of the Arkansas Profit
 able Farming Bureau of the Little
 Rock Board of Commerce)
 With corn selling at $1.20 bushel, oats 70 cents and Arkansas prairie hay at S15, spring oat crop will be profit able this year to the man who is short of feed. Ordinarily spring oats are not to be recommended for the aver age farmer. This year the farmer who is short of feed crops must do something to reduce his feed bill and oats are the earliest hay or grain crop that our farmers can raise.
 The limiting factor in spring oat production is the hot dry weather that usually comes before the crop is ma tured. For this reason the crop should be planted on good land that is not subject to drouth during short dry periods.
 Proper preparations also will lower this damage and keep the crop grow ing on up to full maturity. Much Of the failure to get good crops of spring oats is due to the practice of blowing them in instead of preparing the land and then seeding the grain Where plowed in, the seed is covered uneven ly, some too deep and some too shai- low, and the land is poorly broken and left in cloddy condition The result is an uneven and poor stand, as we'll as inability to stand slight drouths.
 A better method is to blow the land
