FOURTEEN GALLONS
 MILK TO BE PLEDGED

Pledges for fourteen gallons of milk per day are needed to bring the total pledges for a local creamery to the minimum number of gallons that will insure the establishment of the plant in Pine Bluff. These four teen gallons should be pledged today
 The addition to the list yesterday was three gallons daily, promised by Mrs. A. J. Gunther, who said she would sell that amount to the cream cry every day.
 The installation of the creamery means a constant market fer the sale of milk, so that those who have milk fluid to sell. will not be compelled to waste what they cannot dispose of, nor will they have occasion to worry lest they will be unable to sell.
 K. B. Bloom, secretary of the cham Der of commerce, said that the man who is ready to invest his money in local creamery, fixed the minm- um number of gallons daily at 130 There are a number of persons in Pine Bluff and Jefferson county to say nothing of
 say nothing of other points on the railroads and good roads, who can sell their milk to local creamery.
 MT. Bloom will be glad to hear to day from all parties who will make up the fourteen gallons.

They all looked healthy and in good physical condition, except one man sent up from Arkansas City, whose time ex- pires September 1st. Both of his an kleS and feet were in an awful fix; can't walk. and some arrangements should be made to send him to the hospital when he is released, as he can't get there by himself.
 eve would most earnestly recom- mend that the owner and contractor be ordered to at once without fail try and make it so the prisoners, af ter a days work can rest and sleep more comfortably. Think of it No place to sit down, except at the mess tables and it won't hold all of them ard very, very poor, crowded and un- comfortable places to sleep. We know they are criminals, but most Of them, as stated, are boys, and all in for minor offenses. We think at least F or fifteen for riding freight cars, but they are all human beings and should be more humanly treated. We think their food also should be
 changed occasionally, given a cup of coffee (they never get any), Irish potatoes and other things to break the monotony. They all report as being we'll treated otherwise"

 Owing to the censorship which has been established the postcard bears date of on the Seashore. The mess age it bears is the heartfelt "hope that Great America will end the war soon," indicating a confidence that the entry of the United States in the war, will bring it to an early close.
