FARM DEMONSTRATE
Retail Hardware Merchants Arrange to Show Seed Bedding Implements.

Under the auspices of the chamber of commerce the retail hardware merchants of Pine Bluff, will demon strate on Friday, October ,, seed bed ding implements. The implements will be furnished by local hardware dealers, who will obtain them direct from the manufa cturers.
 Speaking of the matter yesterday, E. B. Bloom, secretary of the cham Der, said that, "The farmers will find the cotton crop short, and some will have to be plowed under. The farm CTS can plant winter wheat, oats and rye"
 The food control committee of the United States government and the az ricultural authorities of the state have advised the planting of wheat in Arkansas, especially in this section. The price of $2.20 per bushel makes the grain crop, which is one of the easiest to raise, a big consideration with the farmers.
 Agricultural experts will be on the ground when the demonstrations are made and will superintend every de- lt!l Ol lHC WCI n. IL 10 uuuCI otOOu tAC ground will first be broken with a two-horse sulky blow. It will then be disc-harrowed until the ground is broken very fine. Next the wheat will be drilled in with two-horse drill, and rolled thoroughly
 While directing these operations the experts will explain every detail and the value of every move.

ENGLISH GIRLS ARE
 HELPING TO WIN WAR

Glasgow, Aug. 24.-Corrcspondence of the Associated Press. 1.-The women and girls of England and Scotland are helping in the war by working as la borers in the greatest of tEe nations shipbuilding plants Elsewhere fe- male workers perform duIies which are made as light as possible for them. They drive motor cars and serve as clerks. But in the ship building yards they do the work that heretofore was done by strong men.
 In every yard there are hundreds of them and in one plant just visited by staff correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press six thousand of them are employed. They are dressed in khaki trousers and belted coats which reach well above the knees. Their hair is tucked up under little round khaki caps. But they could never be mis- taken for men-nearly all of them in sist upon wearing high-heeled shoes, and their tastes run to silk stockings. These women and girls for the most part-before they started build ing ships-wore cotton hosiery. But now they earn their own money and, as they get the same pay for doing the work the men used to do, they can af- ford silk. In any shop or any yard they can be seen garbed like this standing at the front of forges, heat ing rivets, running electric machines and cranes; manufacturing on lathes and punches blades for turbines, and doing various things to great steel plates which eventually, with others, will form the sides of ships. Their hands get dirty with the grease, soot, iron stain and other dirts of the ship yards. But their faces seem always to be spotlessly clean.
 Here is the kind of work some of them do. Around gigantic ma chine on the banks of the Clyde tha correspondent saw seven girls, none over twenty, lift heavy steel plate, and while some held it in place one guided a punch and another swung a lever operating the punching me- chanism. They were working as if their lives depended upon speed and they worked like we'll trained team.

Aged Woman Suffers Two Broken Ribs and Minor Injuries When She

Mrs. Matte Simmons, wife of Jere- miah E. Simmons, retired grocer, living at 909 South Linden street, was struck by street car No. 109 last eve ming about 6::3O o'clock in West Sixth avenue, near the intersection of Elm, and knocked down, sustaining two broken ribs on the left side. three inch scalp wound on the left side, a cut on the left elbow and severe bruises.
 Dr. w. o. Clark, proprietor of the Clark sanitarium, was passing near at the time in his automobile, and took Mrs. Simmons to his sanitarium as rapidly as possible. For a time it was thought she was seriously in jured, but this morning a telephonic inquiry elicited the information that Mrs. Simmons had slept well, and was improving.
 Mrs. Sin nons is seventy years of age, and t.; fact of itself may prove more serious on account of the severe shock. It was impossible to say last night whether or not she had sus- tained an internal injury. She is al most deaf.
 Mrs. Simmons was going home at the time of the accident. She was crossing the street. going south, when the car came down the avenue. The motorman, Henry McCool, saw her and had almost brought his car to a stop, when she turned and walked a few steps beside the track. As though unconscious of her move ment, she stepped over in front o1 ] the car, which struck her and knock
 ed her down. McCool is said to have applied the brake, shut off the cur l rent altogether and brought the cal ! to a stop within five feet of the spot where Mrs. Simmons stood when she
 was truck.
