TAKE SPRING TONIC.

Now is the time to take spring tonic,
the home brewed kind, pleasant to take
and in strict compliance with the ethics
of bone-dry state. The formula is
simple. Eat abundance of fruits and
vegetables, both raw and cooked.
Liberal use of green stuff such as let
tuce, celery, onions, cabbage, and of the
fresh fruits available is the best single
preventive of that tired out feeling
that we call "spring fever" Some fresh
fruits and vegetables should have place
in the meal plans of every day. The
winter diet is apt to mean curtailed use
of dairy products and eggs, and of bulky
fruits and vegetables. Adequate use of
these foods keeps the blood as it ought
to be and the whole body in good condi-
ton. Take your spring tonic now.

Department Of Commerce
Makes Report

Washington, d. G March 6, 1910
Preliminary figures of the forthcoming
quinquennial report ON the central electric
light and power stations of the State of
Arkansas have been given out by Director
Sam l.. Rogers, of the Bureau of the
Census, Department of Commerce. They
were prepared under the supervision of
Eugene F.. Hartley, Chief Statistician
for Manufactures.
/ The statistics relate to the years ending
December 81, 1917, 1912, and 1907, AMI
cover both commercial and municipal
plants. They do not, however, cover cleo
trio plants operated by factories, hotels,
etc, which generate current for their own
consumption; those operated by the Fed
eral government and state institutions;
and those that were idle or in course of
construction.
Large increases are shown in substan-
italy all items for both five-year periods
covered by the table, and In cases of the
items for income, expenses, and output
the increases are much larger, both abso-
lutely and proportionally, for the period
1927 than for the preceding five years.
The number of stations increased from
"a in 1912 to SO in 1917. The actual
number of new establishments added since
1912, however, was 43, of which 38 were
commercial and municipal; but, as the
commercial systems, and various other
changes, a net increase of only % estab-
lishments, Is of which are commercial, is
shown by the figures In 1917 the total
income (96.5 per cent of which was for
electric service) amounted to 81 ,801, $3.50,
the percentages of increase being II and
$50 for the two periods, 1927 and
1907-12, respectively. The total expenses
in 1917 were 81, 45O,35S the percentages
of increase for the later and earlier five
year periods being 1916 and 52.3, respect
lively. The total horsepower in 1917 was
36,599, an increase of 41.5 per cent as
compared with 1912; during the preceding
five years the rate of increase was 1858
per cent. Steam supplied by far the
greater part of the primary horsepower
at each of the three censuses-97.S per
cent in 1907, S7.4 per cent in 1912, and
86.1 per cent in 1917. The total dynamo
capacity, 24,913 kilowatts in 1917, shows
an increase of 52.5 per cent as compared
with 1912, the rate of increase during
the preceding five-year period being 68.s
per cent. The output of current generated
in 1917 was 1854, SO1 kilowatt hours,
representing an increase of 117.3 per cent
over 1912, as against 54.3 per cent for
the period 1907-12 The number of arc
street lamps increased slightly, from l.
045 in 1912 to 1,13s in 1917, or SO per
cent, while the incandeseent street lamps
increased in number from 4,731 to 1902,
or 96.6 per cent.

tributing the following fractions: The
North Atlantic States (from Maine to
Pennsylvania), II per cent; South Attain
tic, Is per cent North Central, east of
the Mississippi river, Is per cent; west
North Central, 90 per cent; total North
Central, Al per cent; south central, 23 per

tai for the North, SO per cent; for the
South, So per cent; Atlantic coast, &c per
cent; Mississippi valley, Cd per cent;
Mountain States and Pacific coast, 10 per
cent. Measured by value alone, the crop

only one. He was nice about his feeding
too. There was no sign that he had been
unsanitary with the apple box, or had
even run over the other apples, SO [ left
the box so he could get into it. AT the
same time I left my apple parings and
cores so he could get them. Every night
he ate of them and frequently carried the
excess cores to one of his store houses.
He was about a month eating the first
apple he commenced on and finally
small remnant of it rotted, then he com
menced on another and ate on it just as
carefully and sparingly as the first. /
never got to see him again after came
so near killing him accidentally, but Bill
saw him and said he was one of the fat
test mice he ever saw All the time I
wondered where he had his home, but
never found it until I went to move
had real nice straw hat. One with
flat rim, and hard like board. I had
gotten the edge of the rim broke and so
did not wear it. When I got my hats
down to move I found his nest in it. 1t
was one of the prettiest, eosiest and incest
nests L ever saw, and looked as warm as
1t was possible for a mouse s nest to look
l would not disturb it for anything. I
was tempted to move it and him, but [
did not and left hat and all for his home.
[ went back once afterwards, and some
one had touseled his nest all up. I felt
sorry for poor Rube.
In my present home there is just one
mouse and he is nearly as good as RUDE.
When [ moved in he had a lot of field
peas stored away in the attic and since
/ have been treating him nice he has inn
proved in his conduct toward me- These
two mice cause me to believe that they
can tell their friends and treat them ac-
cordingly. There was cat with her
family of kittens under the floor of my
pantry and this little mousie I imagine
had to be very careful, or else she would
have made a meal of him. Possible if I
had moved Rube over she would have got
ten him the first thing so I am glad I
did not move him.

AMERICA is THE HOPE
OF THE WORLD

Somebody once wrote book of
homilies on the pleasures of Hope,
and Shakespeare revealed the deepest
depths of despair in a figure he Dor
rowed froy Old Testament of the
Bible:
"And W 4e falls, he falls like
Lucifer, never to hope again"
Recently, in a poem descriptive of
the work and influence of Red Cross
nurses, convalescent soldier, speak
ing for himself and comrades, is made
to say of those ministering angels:
"And hope came dancing back
through you,"
Perhaps, the most delicate tribute
SO far paid to that great body of de-
voted women.
President Wilson, speaking with the
authority of experience, made in
Boston that inspiring statement to
any good man or woman that
America is the hope of the world, !"
and he went on to explain that that
hope has been built upon the unset
fish ideals, the defense of which
brought America into the war.
Second only to this inspiring note
of hope was the presidential dictum:
"The proLdest thing / have to report
to you is that this great country of
ours.is trusted throughout the world"
There you have two of the greatest
business slogans possible: America
the hope of the world" and America
Trusted Throughout the World"
Business men know to the last in
dividual the supreme Importance of
business trust, and what that trust
or confidence, means in the success
full prosecution of any trade enter
prise.
Leaving out all questions of politics
or policies, of detailed terms which
may be arranged for League of
Nations (proper subjects for criticism
of the constructive kind), there is in
these two fiery statements of fact
cause for a national pride, perhaps
never before entertained, much less
justified.
No matter what our politics, or our
business, our beliefs or our prejudices,
there is an inspiration in those bold
definitions of our international stand
ing before which pale all the pride of
US in the fact that we are the richest
nation on earth in all material ways.
Money we have, new business we can
get, but, above all and before all
we are the "Hope of the World" and
"This great country of ours is trusted
throughout the world"
Just to jog our memories a bit, our
nation began as refuge for those
oppressed. Our Declaration of In
dependence and later on our Con-
stitution provided for liberties of
mankind as no other governmental
papers ever did. For more than 100
years our gates have been open to
the desirable land some of the un-
desirable) of the rest of the world,
and whatever doubts were entertain
ed about the output of this melting
pot were dissipated when the Great
War revealed the composite American
at his best, and that best was more
than great.
In view of what we have done and
have been, is it even reasonable to en-
tsrtain for a moment, suspicion that
America will, in this twentieth cen
fury, betray the trust that the whole
world has in her?

Sergt. William F. Babcock, former we'll
known Pulaski Heights boy, will soon be
home again after over year S residence
in the war zone, according to letter
received by Mrs. Bernie Babeock, his
mother, Wednesday, The letter, which
was written recently from Bordeaux,
France, stated that Sergt. Babcock had
recovered sufficiently from recent oper-
alton to be returned to this country from
that sailing port. He wrote that he ex-
pected to embark in day or two and
that the vessel on which he would prob
ably sail was then in the harbor.
No word had been received from Sergt.
Babcock for some months and relatives
here had felt some alarm, as when last
heard from in December, he was recuper-
ating from severe attack of influenza
and typhoid fever. He had at that date,
been suffering from these complaints
since early in October
Sergt Babcock is at present "a years
of age. He enlisted in the army shortly
after war was declared and has been
with the Nineteenth Aero Squadron. He
is the son of Mrs Bernie Babcock, who
besides being well known in local literary
circles, has established a reputation of
national fame as an author.
