PEANUTS ARE AN
 EXCELLENT CROP
 FOR ARKANSAS

The peanut is specially adapted to Arkansas agriculture. It is valuable for food and profitable for feed. As a food it may be used in the form of salted peanuts, peanut candies, pea nut butter and as an ingredient of peanut and vegetable meats, peanut meal and salid oils. As feed the thin brown covering of the pea has value almost equal to that of wheat bran. The peanut hay has a good feeding value. The vines and peas chopped or ground together form all most balanced ration. for dairy cow. A hog fattened exclusively on peanuts yields meat that lacks firm ness and lard that is soft and oily, but if finished with a short period of corn feeding a desirable grade of meat and lard can be produced econo- mically. It produces a valuable oil. Like the cow pea, it has the nitrogen fixation properties and is therefore soil-builder and soil-renovator.
 The climate requirements of the peanut are long season without frost, comparatively light rainfall, abundant sunshine and high tenn perature. The soil best adapted to it's growth is sandy loam that con- tains lime and that has a wei ldrain-

COURT-MARTIAL
 OF CHAMBERLAIN
 ENDS IN ENGLAND

London, April 9.-The work of the court martial which is trying Captain E. G. Chamberlain, of San Antonio, Texas, was concluded in England to- day and the court adjourned to meet in Paris on Saturday. The prosecu- tion still has other, witnesses to call before the defense opens it's case. Captain Chamberlain is charged with having made false reports in con- nection with his reported aerial ex- ploits on the British front last sum- mer.
 The defense was much elated to- day over admissions made by w. M. Webb, British war office handwrit ing expert, under cross examination.
 With the object of showing unfair ness in the methods Webb employed in preparing photographic documents the defense drew from him the state ment that he did not use for his comparisons typical speciments of Captain Chamberlain's handwriting but isolated letters which most re- sembled inscriptions appearing on the reports in question.
 Rear-Admiral Knapp, American naval commander here, refused to give the officers of the court per- misison to accept British invita- ton to go to Paris by airplane.

 LaWlesness.

Washington, April 9.-MeXican newspapers reaching Washington to- day report a revival of banditry in the state of Vera Cruz. immediately south of Tampico and record six serious attacks on trains since the middle of March. This is largely the territory where Felix Daz, recently reinforced by General Auraliano Banquet, is reported to be operating

 Kill Train Guards.
 A mixed train on the Vera Cruz 1sthmus line between Vera Cruz and Tierra Blanca was dynamited March 22, the express car robbed and four or five cars of freight which the reb- els could not carry away burned. Seven passengers were wounded and a paymaster carrying 10000 pesos was robbed. Thirteen government soldiers guarding the train were killed and the rebels carried away the paymaster and several passeng- CTS who were being held for ransom at the time the newspapers report ing the attack were published. The most serious train holdup re- ported by these papers was on March 30th when an entire train guard of fifty men was wiped out by body of rebels under the Felicista Chief tain Fabay, who recently footed the town of COatepec and burned the Hacienda of Santa Vita. This attack was made at a point less than ten miles from Vera Cruz on a train be- tween that city and Alvarado. A freight train destined for Puebla from Jalapa was dynamited April 1st and a large amount of freight was stolen or destroyed. The train had no government troop guard and the train was canturpd After dynamit- ; ing one engine, the rebels ordered fireman to take the leader, some of the party and their prisoners up the | line some distance While the leader of the rebels was engaged elsewhere the fireman started his engine and escaped with two cars of oil and three of sugar.

 Near the little town of Bells, a Missouri, Kansas and Texas freight train was blown from the track, the engine alone staying on the rails. The conductor and brakeman living in Denison were reported badly hurt,
 The storm passed over Texas con- ing up from the south, so high that only it's fringe was felt here and at cities south of here. After passing Dallas, it apparently swooped down and it was the counties along the state line that felt it's full force. To- day, before the first reports of ser ious damage began to be received, J. l.. Cline, United States weather ob- server here announced that the condi- tions had been just such as caused tor nadoes and predicted that reports of a serious storm would come later.
 In the panhandle, of Texas, the wind was accompanied by heavy snow. Childress, Texas, reported that traf- fife with all the panhandle roads was blocked by the worst snow storm of the season. From Clarendon north in- to Colorado 15 inches of snow covers the ground. The Denver and Ft. Worth road had three trains in drifts and at Amarillo, the turntable was killed so that engines could not be taken out of the round house. The high wind in the panhandle kept up all day. From Clarendon south, heavy rain fell all night and all creeks and rivers were bankk full. The weather observer predicted frost temperatures for tonight.

 ADJUDGED INSANE

London, April 9.-Lieutenant Col ,onel Norman Cecil Rutherford, of the medical corps of the British army, to- day was ordered detained as insane by the judge in his trial for the kill ing of Major Miles Charles Seton, of Melbourne on January 18th.

A plea of insanity. however, was entertained in the trial today.
