HEART THROBS

The other day the editor of
this purely plus newspaper had
a letter from a sweet Young
thing who quit having birth
day parties twelve years ago.
She wrote for advice. She said
she was going with a young
man who was very hot headed.
She spoke of his burning love
and of the flame of his ambi-
ton but said she was postpon-
ing their marriage because he
smoked. We duly considered
her problem and suggested in
our humble way that she cut
loose and marry him; how
could she expect him not to
smoke under the conditions as
described. But after the we'd
dlng, we told her, she should
never clean things indoors with
gasoline or there would be an
explosion sure pop. Personal

PROMINENT FARMER
COMMITS SUICIDE
After Dressing and Writing
Farewell Notes Young
Man Shoots Himself

Morrilton, Oct. 12.-Oscar
Shewmake, aged 30, member
Of a well known family of this
county, committed suicide
about $3.50 O'Clock last night
by shooting himself through
the head at the home of his
sister, Mrs. J. NJ Scroggins.
SheWmake's home is at Cleye-
land, Ark, where he has a
widowed mother and several
brothers and sisters. He came
to Morrilton several days ago
to answer a call from his local
board, and was to have been
examined today.
Ill health was believed to
nave been the cause OF the act.
He returned home last night,
bathed, and took great care in
dressing. He recently return
ed from the West, where he
had been sent by his physician
for tuberculosis. He had fire.
quently expressed the fear that
he would be unable to pass the
physical examination for the
army.
Shewmake wrote short
note to his sister, and one to
the coroner, saying that no one
should be blamed for his act.
Then he threw himself across
the bed and shot himself.

FARMERS SHOULD GET
COTTON SEED HULLS
Timely Suggestion Comes From
Food Administration AS
to Value as Feed

Little Rock, Oct. 14.-The
attention Of the farmers of the
state is called by officials of
the United States Feod Admin
istration, cotton seed division,
to the fact that for the first
time in several years, appar-
emily, cottonseed hulls are
going to be available to the
southern farmer and cattle
man as feedstuff. and they are
urged to procure a supply of
this roughage to carry them
through the winter. Condi-
tions, it is pointed out, in re-
gard to this commodity are
likely to change any moment,
which would make the cotton
seed hulls no longer available.
Every effort should be
made by the farmers and cat
tlemen to lay in a supply of
these hulls.' said State Food
Administrator Hamp Williams,
and especially should the dia-
ry interests avail themselves
of the opportunity to procure
them for feedstuff. Our ma
ton is shorter of feed for dairy
products and other cattle than
in years, and the demand upon
the government is greater than
ever before. Not only must we
take care of the stock in this
country, but we must also ship
abroad large amounts Of feed
stuff in order that the allied
herds not perish.
Farmers who can procure
the cottonseed hulls and take
the same home while the roads
are in good condition will not
only be laying in a valuable
supply of feed for their own
use, but they will also. by this
art, be contributing to the
winning o. the war. 1t is the
duty of every farmer in Ark
ansas to avail himself of this
opportunity. Do not overlook
it. The suggestion is most
valuable one. We have asked
the farmers to cooperate with
the government relative to
feeding their stock, and to save
in that direction wherever pos
slble, and here is something
they should welcome and avail
themselves of while the tppor-
tunity lasts"

PRESIDENT BAKER
MAY RUE BIG DEAL
n JACK VEIOCK.

by oAOR EfAOOAAa
TEW YORK, Jan. 1e.-American
N league pitchers had a mighty
= good year.
The 1917 averages show an in
crease in pitching effectiveness over
1916. and whether or not trick deliv-
cries are responsible. the fact remains
that the beavers in the johnson cir
cult are getting harder to beat as the
seasons roll on.
Huriers Lead All.
AS compared to 1916 there were "a
pitcht IS in the American league this
year who allowed less than two and
one-half runs per nine innings
against II last year And eight hurl-
game. against five who held oppon-
ents to less than a pair Of markers in
the 1916 campaign
Loud yells against tricks Of pitch
ing, such as Eddie Cicotte's mythical
shine ball." are heard nearly every
season: but while at least one
pitcher-and usually consistent
winners made the target for criti-
cism, il is pretty generally agreed
that the best Of the pitchers today
are better than the topnotchers of q
few years ago. and this solution
SOunQS ike logical one
AS long as the spitball is allowed
to live the pitchers are going to have
an edge on the batters.
The splitter is a regular ghost
ball when hurIer has the pro-
per control of IL. 1t does a lot
of weird things as It comes
floating up to the plate. and
when mixed M with an assort-
ment of good shOOkss and
change Of pace Il Is certainly an
asset to the man on the mound.
SpaIdIng Regretted Deal.
Predictions that owner Bill Baker.
Of the Phillies, is going to rue the
day he sold Alexander and Killifer to
the Cubs recalls q big deal Of the old
days engineered by A G. Spalding.
In 1887 the famous $4,000 beauties
pitcher John Clarkson and catcher
Nike Kelly-became involved in a
deal which sent them to the Boston
club, a deal which caused Chicago to
lose q lot OF interest in the old White
Sox, and which cast its shadow over
baseball in the windy city for many
years afterward-
Kelly and Clark, according to
old timers. could not get TlOnE
with Ed Williamson, the Chicago
shortstOD, and in 1857 SpaldinE
sold Kelly to Boston. The fol-
lowing year Kelly became the
Boston manager and he soon pur-
chased Garrison.
This famous old battery won more
fame in their new surroundings than
they had with Chicago, and Spalding
was sorry he let them get away. But
II was too late for shedding tears at
this stage.
And baseball men claim that the
fans OF today demcnd more than they
used to- So it looks dark for the
Pills IN Philly.-
