1t is always pleasant to hear a beau
tiful, sweet, lyric tenor voice that has
beer carefully trained, and it ever ex-
cites our admiration when we hear
of hardships overcome hy force Of de-
termination and ability These talents
and forces exist in the personality of
Signor Sperandeo, young Italian. who
is at present student at Washington
University His college expenses he
tries to def,ay during his summer va
cation by making use Of his wonderful
lyric tenor voice in giving recitals.
His ambition is especially commend
able because Sipnor Sperandeo, when
seventeen years Of age, lost both his
hands in railroad accident for which
received no compensation However,
by the assistance of his voice he was
able to secure for himself some artifc-
ial hands.

having checked the flow of the creek
it is not high enough to flow over the

labor of moving this gravel we are
waiting for the weather to warm up

wheel turning. You can easily see
that only the weather man is respon.

STATE WIDE MOVE
 FOR MORE WHEAT
Campaign Is Planned by State Council of Agri-
 culture.

A statewide campaign by the united agricultural forces of the state to urge Arkansas ia -n1ers to increase the wheat acreage of the state 50 per cent was decid- ed upon at a meeting of the State Council of Agriculture yes- terday.
 Farmers will be asked to plant enough wheat for home con- sumption, where they have soil that will grow wheat, each far mer to produce from three to five acres. It is estimated that 1t will require an average of six bushels of wheat per capita to supply the home needs. Planta- tion owners will be asked to plant two acres of wheat for each mule. Merchants and bank CTS will be expected to supply credit to farmers for buying seed and farmers are urged to form clubs and buy seed in car- load lots.
 Farmers whose lands are not adapted to wheat should SOW rye for milling purposes, the com- mittee advises. Rye can be used for bread or exchanged for wheat flour.
 Chairman John H. Page said that it was impossible. to empha- size too much the necessity for the home production of wheat if Arkansas is to have a suffi- cient amount of flour for bread stuff next year.
 "The United States Govern ment is relying upon Arkansas to increase her wheat crop 50 per cent or more and if it is not increased to this extent t is pos sible there will not be q sufficient amount of flour for bread after the crop of 1918 is harvested" !"

SCHOOL SESSION
 OPENED MONDAY
Promises To Be The Best Year In the History Of
 The School.

The Judsonia High School be- gan it's regular sssion Monday, September 10th with an enroll ment of about 260. This repre- sents the white population of the school only, and with the en- rollment of the colored school will be about 300.
 There was an unusually large attendance of the patrons who volunteered their time and pres ence to the successful opening of the school. Probably there were more patrons present than at any opening in the history of the school. Besides these the entire board were present and showed their interest in the well fare of the boys and girls that make up this, one of the best high schools in White County.
 T. J. Lowdermilk made an ex- cellent defense of the boards work in this term of school thus far, and also gave a forceful dec laration of what they ar going to do as the term progresses. Mrs. Lowdermilk outlined the work and plans of the s. I. A for the year.
 Other talks followed, includ- ing members of the faculty.
 MT. Chaplin with his band of boys furnished some very excel lent music which was apprecia- ted very much by those present.
 Everyone seemed to be enthus iastic over the prospects for a good school year, and seemed to be willing to do their "bit" to start it off right. All in all the affair was very gratifying to those who have the school in charge, both faculty and board, and the present indictions are that this is to be one of the best years in the history of the schools.

BOON FOR LIVE
 STOCK INDUSTRY
Estimated 30,000 Cattle Have Been Shipped From
 Texas Recently.

The drouth in Texas and the resultant shipment of cattle in- to Arkansas has advanced the live stock business in this state during the last month more than would have been possible in many years under ordinary con- ditions. The Arkansas Profta- ble Farming Bureau of the Lit u eRock Board of Commerce has received information of 10000 head that have been shipped in- to the state recently and this is only a fraction of the total. It is believed that at least 30,00O head of high grade cattle have been shipped into this state with in the last few weeks.
 Many Arkansas farmers are planning to fatten the live stock that they now have and to sell them, replacing them with high CT class breeding stock fromTex- as.
 The seriousness of the situa- tion in Texas was illustrated by dispatch from Austin, Texas, which said that more than 100 carloads of cattle in the drouth- stricken district of western Tex as are awaiting shipment and there are no cars to ship them. The farmers in the drouth af- f1icted districts have been forced to rush their lean, hungry cattle to market and Arkansas live
