did he perform this work that when the presidency of the company be- came vacant through the death of his father, Thomas N. Doyle, last April, he was recognized as the natural sue cessor. No action was taken, how ever, until the annual meeting last week.
 When the United States entered the war with the Allied nations, the three sons of Thomas N Doyle were all inspired with a patriotic desire to enter the service. It was finally agreed that the two other brothers, Robert A. Doyle and Henry W. Doyle, should enter the training school for officers at Fort Logan H. Roots, and Thomas N. Doyle would remain with the business. Int two who entered the army came out with commissions, Captain Robert A. Doyle, and Lieu tenant Henry w. Doyle. Both have since been promoted and so Major Robert M. Doyle is adjutant of the 162nd Field Artillery Brigade and probably the youngest major at Camp Pike. His brother is aide de camp to Brig. Gen. Richmond P. Da- wis and is probably the youngest seaff officer of this rank at the camp. demonstrating the ability of the members of the Doyle family, for in military affairs nothing counts but merit.
 Warren N. Doyle, J. P. Blanks, Ross R. Gillespie and Milton Winham were elected vice president and B. F. Kidd, to whom the active management of the company is largely entrusted, and who has been one of the most suc- cessful big business men of Little Rock, was again elected secretary and treasurer.

LITTLE ROCK MILLING CO.

 ing Wheat and Other Grain
Much Needed Industry That Promises Great Assistance ln
 Feeding Arkansas People

The Little Rock Milling company Is one of those concerns situated at Little Rock. which is the outgrowth of the great demand oceasioned by the necessity of the agricultural in- terests of this section of the state, for a place where they could have a near market for their products. AS practical millers and mill men who have dealt largely with the farmers, and in order to encourage them to raise more wheat in the state of Arkansas. the company was encour- aged to locate in that city by the Board of Commerce, and the com pany is working hand in hand with that progressive organization through its Profitable Farming Bureau" to carry out their slogan, Let Arkansas Feed Herself"
 The members of the firm are all practical in their lines of work and there are no hired men on the job. Members of the company are doing all the work and the public is there by assured that 1t is having that ser vice which comes alone from the direct personal interest of the owners of the concern.

 While the Messrs. Stapp are life time millers and experts in every de- partment of that work, Mir. Nelson has been a practical farmer all his life and as such is qualified to give all information as to the best methods of sowing. cutting. guarding against smut and the shocking of wheat, all of which Is very important to those desiring to make financial success of the wheat raising industry. This information can be secured by calling at the company's plant in the old Weinmann Building at $40 East Markham street, or by writing to the company at that address.

If the grain is sent in for sale, 1t will be hauled from the depot free and the farmer will receive the highest market price for his product, check being sent him at once.

 A stale egg pleases no one. Heat is the fresh eggs enemy Cold is its friend.
 The shorter the time and the more direct the route of the egg from the nest to the packing house, the smaller the opportunity for loss.
 The sooner the egg is put under re- frigeration and started to market, the finer it's quality when it reaches it's final destination and the higher it's value. Don't give the eggs hot time in the old car.
 To make a good, marketable prod uct, cracked eggs, extremely small and dirty, as we'll as turkey and duck eggs, should be removed from the first grade and packed separately as seconds.
 Keep eggs cool. Cool the egg and cash the check. Goodness and cleanli- ness mean more cash.
 Refrigeration during transit main- tains quality, weight, fresh appearance and food value. It retards loss of quality, shrinkage, "blood-rings" and loss of food value. It enables the de- livery of high quality, uniform product.

 Much local interest has been at tracted to the mill on account of the introduction of new and modern types of machinery and visitors by the hundreds have fiocked to the plant to inspect it's workings The company is always glad to show any farmers visiting the city through the plant and encourage them all to make it a visit during their trips to Little Rock. It stands as great factor in the midst of the industrial and jobbing center of Arkansas great city.

In installing the new Flour and Corn Meal Mill in Little Rock the company has made it a rule to at all times keep on hand for sale and exchange, flour, meal, pure wheat bran, and middlings, corn, oats and corn chops.

homes, on the farms and for the profitable conduct of their business affairs.
 Tie location of the great picric acid plant at Little Rock was a distinct victory in this line, for the making of the acid involves the use of Arkansas raw materials, and there are other chemical industries which involve the use of wood as raw material which will probably follow the acid plant. The eyes of the nation have been turned this way by the action of the government and a wood alcohol plant is considered one Of the near achievements.
 AS the fourth inland cotton market of the South. Little Rock has long been considered as fine loca-
 ion for textile manufacture. The only trouble in securing such factories appears to be the cost of power, but this may be changed by 5he discovery of natural gas near the city, or the utilization of the water power from the watersheds of the Ozark rivers by hydro-electric in stallations, which it is claimed would give Little Rock cheap power and furnish wonderful impulse toward cotton manufacture.
 Cotton statistics show that the State of Arkansas now consumes less than 10000 bales of cotton year, which is less than one per cent of one ef it's own bumper crops.
 It is also proposed that with the development of the packing industry, Little Rock should be associated with the refinement of the cotton seed oil TOW produced there in such large quantities. Soap, table oil, lard and other products should be produced in Little Rock plants utilizing the out put of Little Rock packing houses and Little Rock oil mills.
 According to the West At Work, published in St. Louis, Mo, Little Rock has been making a fine record Of growth along industrial lines. In an article on Little Rock the follow ing paragraph tells the story:
 In the first place, is is necessary to take note of Little Rocks healthy in dastrial growth The fve-year period which separated the Federal h. dustrial Censue of 1909 from that of 1914 ended in general business de- pression on account of the coming on Of the war. This showed itself in an actual falling off of industrial pro auction in the latter year by com parison with the former one in many important American centers. This was not confined to any one line. Moline, Illinois. makes agricultural Implements. Providence, R h 0 d e Island, machine tools and textiles; Denver, Colorado, is a smelting point and a center of general manufact- ures; Lowell, Mass, Is famous Tor shoes and cotton fabrics; while Kan ssss City, Kansas, is one of the worlds greatest packing centers. All or these five showed losses in 1914 by,eomparison with 1909. But dur ing this period the manufacturing output of Little Rock proper gained 15 per cent, and Little Rock and Nofth Little Rock, taken together, showed a gain, though much less than this. Little Rocks gain be- comes the more notable in view of the fact that the combined output of -siae first six manufacturing cities in Louisiana during the same period showed a loss

FIRE THREATENED
 CHILDREN'S HOME.

BOTH BOYS AND GIRLS WORK LIKE HEROES.-SPARK FROM
 CHIMNEY CAUSE OF FIRE
Department Called-Alderman E. W
 MuIlan Drove Truck to Fire.

The fine building at the Windham County Temporary Home in the Saw yer District was threatened by fire between 9 and 10 o'elosk last Satur- day morning when a spark from the kitchen chimney lodged on the roof and caused a blaze. The city depart ment was summoned, but the fire was practically out before the arrival of the fremen. Damage amounting to about $10O was done.
 The fire was discovered by Gather inc Ryan, a little four-year- old tot at the home. She saw the blaze and ran into the house and gave the alarm.
 Both the boys and the girls worked like heroes to save their home and all helped carry the hose and pass wa ter. Harry Kenyon. the oldest boy in the home, showed unusual bravery. He got out upon the roof and, sur rounded by flames, fought gallantly
 When an attempt was made to turn on the water at the hydrant, it was found that it was not working well and only small stream came. It is believed that this was on account of the hydrant being frozen during the winter. It was due to this fact that the department was summoned from the city. Before it arrived better stream came.
 Alderman E. W. Mullan was among the first at fire headquarters. Some of the drivers were out on other busi- ness, so the chairman of the fire com mittee of the common council got be- hind the wheel and made a successful run to the home and back.
 The shingles on the roof of the home are old and dry. A spark prob ably dropped and was famed by the high wind that was blowing, until the blaze started During the progress of the fire the wind was so high that some of the burning shingles were blown at "a considerable distance. Spark arfestefs have been placed over the tops of the chinfnevs

 Another man expressed similar opinion and said that he could not see the wisdom of this change. He thought 1t would only tend to stir up matters in the department again and said that everything should be done to bring about haraony.
 No 9 Company held another cleo ton last Thursday night and elected the same list of officers as was be- fore submitted to the council. This company is now working together in harmony and is out for practice reg ularly.
 Last Sunday the company received permission from the chief to couple on to hydrant and put on a stream of water, shutting il oil again imme- diately While this practice was going on a man connected with the water department came along and remon- strated with the company for using the water. It is understood that hot words followed
 It is said that conditions have now reached such stage in No. 1 Com pany that whichever election is rati- fled by the council it is apt to cause some resignations by those favoring the set of officers that is not ratified.

According to one closely assoeia ated with the present city government there is apt to be lively session of the common council next Tuesday night, when the situation in the fire department is brought up again.
 A meeting of the council was call ed for last Tuesday night, but on ac- count of members wishing to attend the mission at St Mary's church the meeting was called of
 According to The Patriots infor- mant there is considerable dissatis- faction at the recent election held by Hose Company No. 1, when Ernest Tetreault was busted from the posi- ton of foreman and Phias Cloutier elected in his place Some members of the council, 1t is understood, do not take kindly to the present state of affairs They believe that the first election was the only real and legal election and say that when the names of the officers were submitted to the last meeting of the council it was un= derstood that the officers would be ratified at the next meeting, after Hose ? had held its election according to the new city ordinance. This was done so that all officers could be rat flied at the same time.
 When asked if he did not think Hose No. should have held anoth= CT election this gentleman said that in his opinion the first election was legal. While he admitted that un- der the old state of the city charter and ordinances such an election would have been illegal for No. ? Company, the same did not apply to

PLENTY OF WATER NOW

Putnam's water system is once more back to normal. The new pump at Harrisville is running smoothly and the standpipe on Oak Hill is prac- tically full.
 The new pump is forcing all the water through the mains that the pipes can stand. While there seems to be no question that sooner or later a large expenditure of money will be necessary to care for the growing needs of the city. just now, according to the superintendent, there is more water than ever before.
