THIRD PROPOSED
 AMENDMENT FILED
Constitutional Amendment For Advisory Pardon Board Was FOurth-HOuse Defeats Bush and Carruth Resolution.

Little Rock, Jan. 20.-The House Friday afternoon finally adopted the Ponder resolution for the submission of a Constitutional amendment for an advisory pardon board, but that was too late, for three amendments to be submitted have already been provided for.
 The House then defeated the Bush and Carruth resolution asking for the submission of constitutional amend ment for graduated land tax. The death was not slow strangulation, but by the most scientific and effective method known, "tabling."
 The House spent the balance of the afternoon considering Senate bills,

 He compared the conditions of the great wheat and corn belt with those of the cotton belt. The most prosper ous farms are where the former is raised. He urged the raising of more live stock in the south, proving that our advantages are much better than those of our northern brother He dealt at length with the banker who demands that his customers have a big crop of cotton to give as security which should be discouraged. Just criticism was made on our public school system for the lack of agricul. tural courses, for the pupils.
 The following ingredients are essen. tial to the upbuilding of the soil, ac- cording to experts: Nitrogen, Phos. phate, potash and lime. He advo- cated the division of the farm into sections, with a different crop on eacf section, the object of this campaign being to introduce this method. The using of machinery being also an eco. nomical method of farming which oul farmers must eventually take up.
 He complimented Nevada county 1T going ahead with these meetings in. stead of being discouraged with the unfavorable weather as other countie; have done.
 At the conclusion of Dr. Weigait's address, Miss Sarah Griswold, tho home demonstrator for Nevada coun ty, made a short talk in which she out lined her work and asking the cooper ation of the people in making he work a success during the coming year.

PROFITABLE FARMING
 CAMPAIN DRAWS BIG
 CROWD IN PRESCOTT
Dr. S. P. Weigait of Washington, D. C., Gives Valuable Advice to Business Men as We'll as Farmers. .1

Although the weather was rather unfavorable yesterday afternoon, the Arkansas Profitable Campaign meet inc in Prescott was attended by sur prisingly large and attentive audience, of business men, farmers and ladies. Judge J. w. Franks acted as chairman.
 Dr. s. P. Weigait of Washington, D. C., the only speaker sent here, gave some valuable and timely in formation to all classes of people, stating that the merchant and busi- ness men are equally dependent on each other for living. He said that the trouble he found with most of his meetings was that the business man tells the farmer to attend these meet ings as it is for his benefit alone, which is a mistake; everyone should have some knowledge of agriculture. The object of this campaign is to ac- quaint the people of the south with the true industrial conditions.
 The crisis in another big cotton crop this year may be reached if in the fall of 1917 this country were not able to export single bale of cotton to Europe, because of the submarine war fare, which would be caused by Eng
 land calling in all her merchant ships except a few, necessary to transport food; should this happen where would our cotton be, and where would We be ? Cotton down and living necessities up.

 OILS OF PAYMENT OF BOND

Little Rock. Jan. 20.-Gov. Brough's first action that can be classed with 3 pardon, is to relieve Jo Nichol of Pine Bluff, of the payment of bond on negro. The negro entered plea of guilty on a charge of gaming, and by agreement took an appeal to the cir cult court, where the case was thrown out, because the negro had no grounds for appeal after entering his plea of guilty. By that time the negro was gone, and the citizen who signed his bond was left with the sack to hold
