GOOD HALF CROP

W B. Brogdon, one of the well known peach growers of this section, stated to The News Wednesday after noon that unless late freeze killed the buds he would have a good half crop. This report received from Mir. Brogdon was called for on account of the unfair report sent out from Rogers to the effect that there would be no peaches in northwest Ar kansas this season and that so Tar as peaches were concerned north west Arkansas would not be on the map This report was evidently sent to the Kansas City Packer by q misinformed correspondent, and who had limited his investigation to sec tions surrounding Rogers. at any rate. he failed to get report from Spring dale-and Sprinedale ships far more peaches than Rogers, also apples. also strawberries

GUARDS MAY
 BE RECALLED
Letter from War Department to Adjutant General England Believed
 to Mean Calling out of Guards Arkansas Needs Many Recruits

Little Rock, March 3.-Letters sent by the War Department to adjutant generals of the national guard in every state are believed to be prepar- ine measures for again calling out the 2nard, according to Adjutant General Lloyd England of the 4rkan- sas National Guard.
 The letters are dated February 28 General England received copy yes terday It Is signed by William A Mann, brigadier general of the Gener- al Staff of the United States army
 The opening paragraph says that the instructions refer to all national guard units subject to call into fed eral service, and those now in the ser vice which may be mustered out be- fore the second possible call is issued.
 General England believes that the letters. which do not contain specific orders for reassembling the men, are warning thatZthe miitiamen will soon be ordered to mobilize again. He believes Il Is part of pro- gram of federal preparedness for war with Germany.
 This belief is strengthened when 1t k considered that every unit of nat ional guard has been ordered mus tered out. \ large part of the guard which saw service on the Mexican bor der, has been mustered out, including the First Arkansas Regiment The Second Arkansas entrained at Dem ing yesterday for Little Rock
 The regiments must be at war strength, says General Nann's letter War strength Is 150 men to q com pany This means, Geeheral Eng land says. that recruiting cam paign would have to begin in Ark ansas if the president again called out the guard Also the letter speci- fies that the men must have subscrib- ed te the federal oath.
 Immed ately upon call the officers must report to the commander of the department in which they are located Arkansas is in the Southern Depart ment Major General J. ]. Pershing is commander.
 Il believe Genera Mann's letter, which was ordered sent out by the War Department, means that the National Guard may be called out at any moment" General England said last night The fact that the letter IS sent to the various adjutant gener- als before all of the guard has been mobilized indicates that the call may be immediate, even before the balance of the guardsman go home.
 'eThe instructions that each unit must be at war strength means that we have to start recruiting cam paign to fill up the Arkansas regi- ments. It IS well known that they are now even below peace strength.
 The instructions l received today indicate that the troops would not necessarily be mobilized at Fort Roots, but would be sent to any point deSig- mated by the department eomnan= der.

Will Rigid|y Enforce
 Traffic Ordinance

Mayor Smith informs The News that the new ordinance regulating the competency and age of driver of motor vehicles lights, speed, numbers, handling, signaling, and passing of all motor ve- hcles in the streets and other public thoroughfares of the City of Sprngdale' will be regidly enforced
 The ordnance No. los was passed at the meeting of the Council held Tuesday night, and is published in full in this issue, and becomes effective mmedia- tely after it's publication, or right noWi
 Children under the age of sixteen prohibited from driving cars within the corporate limits of Sprin gdale, unless accompanied by parents or competent driver
 Fifteen miles per hour is the speed limit within the closely built business section of Springdae and twenty miles per hour outside the business section.
 On turning a corner, where the drivers view is obstrueted the speed limit Is six miles per hour and ample warning or signal must be given before mak- ing the turn
 From sunset to one hour before sunrise each automobile must be equped with two lighted lamps, visible at least hundred feet in the direction the said car Is travelling and also ole lighted lamp in the rear to show red light
 License number must be prominently displayed both front and back.
 Ample warning must be given before backing car
 When signaed from behind, by driver of motor vehicle desiring to pass, person in front must pull to right of street road
 Automobile engine must be entirely shut-off, when car Is left without attendant any street public-highWay.
 Violation of the ordinance or any section, is a mls-demeanor, and punishable by fine of S1 to S25 for each offense.
 In order to provide for rigid enforcement of the traffic law, suggestion from local business will probably be put into effect by Mayor Smith in case it IS deemed advisable. That sugges- tion: That public fund be donated toward urng the services of additional help to the regular police force to enforce the provisions of the ordi nance. That the identity of the additional help ured kept secret from auto drivers in the city, to the end that proper enforcement may be secured
 Mayo Sn1ith has al inf hp the ordinance will be enforced just as written with out regard to person violating same, or circum- stances under which violation takes place.
 In other words violation is a violation, and no excuse tolerated.
 The first sixty days will test the ordinance and during that time The News predicts that several violations will take place, unless there is great change in the present methods used in operating some automobiles within the city limits.
 The enforcement of the new ordinance is now dearly up to the police department of the city the ordnance is now in force and t is well knovr fact that daily violations ire being made

OH! MY BACK!
The'Expression of Many a Kidney
Sufferer

A stubborn backache is cause to sus-
pect kidney trouble. When the kidneys
are infamed and SWOLLEN, STOPPING

sluggish kidneys-relieve aching backs.

my suffering was intense. "A constant
