( EAGLE BOATS IN
ADRIAT|C SEA
Contracts for IL of New u. S.
Type Submarines Let to
Ford Company.

WASHINGTON. July 22.--Italy is to
use the new American type OF subma-
rine chasers the Eagle" boats, in its
campaign OF attrition against the Aus
TRAN fleet In the Adriatic sea.
Announcement was made that the
Italian government has secured
from the Navy Department a contract
FOR IL OF the vessels to be built by the
Ford Manufacturing Company OF De-
troit, and Italian officers said they re-
garded this as only the forerunner Of
orders for large number Of the craft.
The Eagle" boats have been de-
scribed as cross between the Amer
lean torpedo boat destroyer and sub.
marine chaser and are about 200 feet
long. built OF steel and OF fast speed
Because OF the shallow waters in the
harbors on the Adriatic, the crafts
are expected to prove especially valu-
able to italy aside from their worth as
submarine chasers.
In announcing the taking over Of
the contracts for the II ships today,
Italian offlcers would not say when de-
Hveries would begin, other than that
1t would be very soon"
The model for the craft was CON-
pieted recently and the company ex-
poets soon to be producing the craft at
rate OF one day on contracts for
large number which were awarded by
the Navy Department some time ago.
Italian naval constructors and en-
gineers have examined the model and
are understood to be highly pleased
with the vessel. Italian crews already
are being trained to man the craft.

SANITARY SEWAGE DISPOSAL.
A Timely Talk On This Very Vital Subject by J. F. Dreisbach
 $. E.

One of the great problems that now confronts the health officers, hotels, schools and other buildings in their respective towns.
 It has long been the custom to elect the most shiftless man in town to the office of city scavenger, and it was his duty to see that all the "dry" closets in town were properly cleaned once in every so often. As this man Is his own inspector only the easy work is done, and YOU are all familiar with the results, though the people know little or nothing of the danger in which they are placed by these lax methods used tc bluff them into thinking that they aIe getting clean town.
 The expense attached to the con stluction of a sewage disposal system for the houses of any community is the main reason why these otherwise enlightened people do not clean up and provide some efficient method Of caring for their organic wastes. Even the loss of one or more of their fani-

of the first necessities in order to make Arkansas prosperous from her dairying enterprises. The introduc- tion of better producing cows can be brought about in several ways Bet ter cows may be brought in to take the place of the low producers; calves from high producing cows may be introduced and reared to maturity and placed on the dairy farm, or the use of sires from ancestors of high production may be used for the pur- pose of developing daughters carry ing the ability to produce large quantities of milk and butter fat. The latter method is probably surer and quicker and at the same time less expensive than either of the other two.

GROWING CASTOR BEANS
 IN RICH LONOKE COUNTY

The Castor beans now being grown in Lonoke County by farmers in sew eral communities who have needed the governments call to produce more. beans on account of the war, are said to be promising good returns on the labor invested. The work in this. section of the country is under the supervision of T. O. Branch, state contractor, who reports that 4,000 acres of good Arkansas land is being devoted to the culture of Castor beans, and that the yield will total about 120,000 bushels.
 This industry is under government guarantee, and every bushel raised will bring not less than S3.00, making Arkansas certain of S360,000.00 in come this year from that new crop There would have been more acres devoted to the beans this year, but the seed bean in sufficient quantity seed used this season were supplied through MT. Branch at a cost of S5.01. plus the cost of transportation. and the government in urging the plant ing of a large acreage showed that IF Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, Tex as and California, where they have been grown for several years, the beans yielded 90 to 40 bushels per acre, which would bring from so0.0O up per acre in revenue. One bushel of seed is estimated to be enough for planting about 15 acres of land.

and sixty-five days. In other words, every dairyman should weigh and test the milk iron. every COW in his herd in order to know accurately what each individual is doing.
 The expression is often made that there is more in the feed than in the breed. This is true to only limited extent. Some of our native cows might be fed the finest rations in the world and still be unproftable, and on the other hand some of the heaviest producing cows could be ruined by the use of improper rations. It is necessary that the successful dairyman understand the feed question thoroughly. It is not necessary that he know all of the scientific and chemical phrases, but he should have general knowledge

hire a competent, efficient tester.
 Sixth. The State of Arkansas should inaugurate in cooperation with the State University and the State Dairymen's Association a Registry where all cows officially found to produce as much as pound of butter fat per day per year would be eligible for registration. re- gardless of color, age or breed.
 Seventh. There should be silo upon every dairy farm and the pro- duetion of crops to fill it.
 Eighth. Practically all of the feed for the dairy should be produced up on the farm and not purchased upon the open market.

of the food elements in the various kinds of feed, so that he could mix them in manner that would give his cows a balanced feed essential to the best results in whatever line of pro duction he is working A COW in heavy milk flow certainly requires different feed from the developing heifer and she in turn would require somewhat different rations from older cows during the dry period pre- ceding calving. The wise dairyman makes a provision in advance for the necessary feeds to maintain high production in his herd and plans crops so as to meet these demands.
 There are three elements in every feed that determines it's value for the purpose for which it is used. These elements are proteins, car bohydrates and fats. The per centage of these substances in the feed, their ratio to each other and the ease with which they are digested and used by the animal. establish its value.
 For example in each 100 pounds of corn there are 7.5 pounds of digestible protein, 67.S pounds of digest;ble carbohydrates and 4.6 pounds of digestible fat. The rest of the grain is largely indigestible substances, such as fiber and have practically no value except for the bulk they add to the feed
 The Arkansas Situation
 To sum up the situation n Arkansas, so far as it relates to the future of the Dairy industry, it is safe to conclude:
 First. That for many years to come there will be an increasing de- mand for pure bred animals and all of the dairy products.
 Second. Arkansas is naturally adapted to dairying on aceouns of the variety of grasses and grains that can be grown, abundance Of living water and mild and open winters.
 Third. The Texas fever tick, now the limiting factor in the develop ment of the dairy industry in certain parts of the State. will be extermin- ated by 1920
 Fourth. The introduction of pure bred males for the purpose of breed ing up the native cows to higher pro duction is one Of the most rapid methods of improving dairy condi- tions.
 Fifth Every dairyman should keep an accurate record of the production of each COW and eliminate the board CTS. This can best be done by form ing COW testing Association consist ing of about twenty-sis members. who

he possesses the power to transmit the qualities of his producing ancestors to his offspring, the first generation of his daughters will greatly increase herd production. The continuation of this policy for several generations will result in such high grade, high producing cattle that the bad element of low production Of the foundation females will be completely overshadowed and lost sight of Experiments at the Illinois Experiment Station bear out the truth of these statements. This station found that the use of pure bred bulls increased the production of butter fat eighty-fve pounds per COW per year. That is, daughters of these pure bred sires gave that much more butter fat than their dams. Missouri found that the use of pure bred males increased the production of milk 3230 pounds per year in the first generation.
 So long as the scrub bull is allowed to run at large because his services are useful to the owner only to the extent that he causes the refreshing of the cows, just so long will the dairy industry of Arkansas be in a low, unproftable condition. A herd law should be put into operation, making it a criminal offense to allow scrub males to run at large, jeop- ardizing the animal industry The writer had the pleasure of noting the untimely death of such worthless male through suicide. This bull was running at large and in order to pro tect his herd farmer friend corraled him and tied him to a post with the result that during the night he hung himself. There ought to be a bounty placed on animals of this kind and a reward given for every hide that is brought in to the County Clerk.
 Farmer Business Man
 The dairyman will never progress to the full possibilities of his possible income unless he knows what each individual in his herd is doing in the way of producing milk. The farmer is. first of all. business man and he should run his business on strictly business basis. No guess work should go. To milk a COW day after day may lead the farmer to believe that he knows about what that COW is do- ing in the way Of milk performance. There is only one accurate way to know what she does for three hun dred and sixty-fye days in the year and that is to use the milk scales, weighing her milk morning and even- ing and keep an accurate record of her total performances. This sup plemented by the use of the Babeock tester will give true record of the amount of butter fat that she is producing during the three hundred

lies now and then does not move them to get together and take the sanitary steps necessary to stamp out the fev CTS that are so common in our small towns.
 The sewage disposal systems that are now on the market, make it so easy for every private residence, hotel, school or community to take care of all their, sewage, that it should be con sidered criminal offence for any family to dump their sewage, out in the back yard somewhere and let the rain wash it into their well, or worse, into the we'll of their neighbors. In the last few years a large number of concrete tanks have been built throughout the State, but as the sew age acts on concrete and decomposes 1t, the salt glazed sewer pipe is much better material to use in this con- struction, as it is practically indes- timetable and will last a life time.
 The main difficulty encountered with the septic tanks that are now on the market, is the disposal of sludge. For in all septic tanks the sewage goes through a process of fermenta- loa which causes a Sludge sediment to form in the settling chamber, some of this sludge is wash ed out in the effluent dis charge causing soil pollution but great part remains in the settling
