GASOLINE AN EFFECTIVE
CURE FOR GRASSHOPPERs

Pierre, July 6.-One gardener in
this city, in his efforts to stop the
work of the small grass hopper
which are swarming over his lot tried
the gasoline route for them and say
1t was the most successful m he
found. He noticed that the hop
pers" gathered in great numbers ev-
cry evening on the tips OF the sweet
clover which surrounded his garden.
He sprinkled these weeds with gaso-
line, and hurriedly touched the spray
off, with the result that a swarm OF
hoppers went the way of those who
fool with gasoline and fire. But
after the first effort the gardner
found 1t to his own comfort and con
venience to start the explosion with
a kerosene rag tied to the end of a
long fish pole, as his first expert
ence was not n that he cared to try
again.

WHAT MAKES MAN UNFIT
FOR MILITARY SERVICE?
Flat Feet, Poor Teeth, Defective
Eyesight, Lack OF Chest De-
veIopment Chief Causes.

washington.-A long list of condi-

that In a large percentage of cases
these defects are unavoidable. just as
tuberculosis and kidney trouble are
avoidable. They are ~preyentable

lungs. irregular spines and certain
heart affections, says Carl Easton VIII

probably responsible for more rejec-
lions I'm the army than any other sin
gle case. About Is per cent Of all APP
plications for enlistment In the marine
corps In New York are rejected for
fiat feet, according to Captain Frank
Il. Evans. He places the blame largely
| on the poorly constructed shoes worn
by the average toiler and on the fact
that most OF the victims have been
compelled to stand on their feet while
at work. Motormen, conductors, sub
way guards, policemen, machinistsr
walters and clerks are the principal
sufferers. according to Captain Evans.
There appear 10 be comparatively
few reflections in the army on the basis
OF heart trouble, perhaps because the
most OF those who apply are young

The Board of Trade.

The banquet given by the Board of Trade last Friday night. in honor of the State Association of County Judges and other distinguished visitors, very forcibly demonstrates the value of a commercial organization. such as our Board of Trade Is, to town like Der mott. It is through such an organiza- tion that occasions of this kind are made possible, and also that much other mer- itorious work in behalf of the city and county is accomplished.
 The Board of Trade Is. of course. simply an organization of individual business men who are willing to pay their dues of $l.00 per month and de vote small amount of time and energy to public work.
 Efforts are continually being made to increase the membership, and a standing invitation Is extended every white man in Dermott to have his name enrolled and share the responsi- bilities and privileges of the other members of the organization.
 For there are occasionally privileges which circumstances make 1t possible to extend only to the members, and this was true of the banquet given last week. lnasmuch as only limited number of guests could be served, it was necessary to limit the invitation to the members of the Board of Trade. On account of the rain. which made the automobile trip from Lake Village impossible, the number of out-of town guests was less than had been expected but this fact was not known to the committee until too late to make any change in the arrangements.

l feel that l would be ungrateful to the good people of Chicot County if did not thank each and every one of them who assisted in entertaining the Arkansas County Judges and other distinguished guest during the two day session at, Lake Village, Eudora and Dermott and Iregret exceedingly that each citizen did not have the pleasure of hearing the flattering remarks made by our guest about Chicot County and her citizenship. In my opinion this entertainment will bring untold good to our rich and fertile county.
 lwish especially to thanklthose of you who served upon the various committees and gave your time to this work, and to assure you that the success of the entire meeting was largely due to you.
 Respectfully,
