 POPULAR AND PROFITABLE

During the past winter and spring 70 carloads of hogs were marketed through the county agents and office of markets of the Agricultural Exten- sion Division of the University of Arkansas, and in many cases farm CTS received $500 more for carload-iot hogs shipped and sold comparatively than handled otherwise. Good grade hogs brought from IS to 20 1-2 cents a pound on foot and as many as twen- ty.fiye to thirty farmers consigned from one to forty hogs each in some of the shipments. The cooperative marketing of farm products is one of the agricultural problems which will be handled by the county agricultural committee and the, Special ,Agricul- tural Advisory Board lthen organiza-' u6n of which has been practically Completed in every county which has an agent by the Agricultural Exten- sion Division of the University of Ar kansas The purpose of these organ izaticns is to cooperate with and as- sist the county agents to promote the agricultural interests Of the counties.

JESS AND JACK TO BATTLE IN
 20-FO0T RING
Make It Fifteen for all Care'' Says Dempsey to
 Rickard.

Toledo, Ohio, June 13.-Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey will meet in their , worlds heavyweight championship contest here July in 20-foot ring instead of the regulation 24 foot en- closure. This announcement was made by Tex Rickard, promoter of the
 contest, tonight after he had obtained the consent of both men. Rickard said that reducing the size of the ring will enable him to save 400 square feet at the ringside to install additional press seats, the demand for which has ex- ceeded all expectations.
 You can make it fifteen feet square, for all 1 care,' was Demsey's reply
 to Richards proposal
 When Willard heard of the challan- gers remarks he said; "It does not make any difference to me what size
 you make the ring. The smaller it is,
 the harder it will be for Dempsey to get away from me"
 It was revealed today that the cham pion is close to his fighting weigth
 and that he expects to enter the ring weighing about 245 pounds, which will
 make him four and a half pounds lighter than when he fought Jack Johnson at Havana Willard scaled 252 pounds after workout yesterday He has reduced about 15 pounds since
 his arrival here two weeks ago. Dempsey did not don the gloves again today but went through his paces before a big crowd. His dama- ged.leye may be sufficiently healed to permit boxing Sunday.

County Supt o. l.. Howell said
early this week that il begins to
look like some OF the schools may nor
get teachers. There has probably
never before been such scarcity OF
school teachers. Some districts have
sent out offers to pay 500 a month
and have had no applications. Posi-
bly, many persons have given up
school work because OF low salaries
but now the people have come alive
to the fact than teachers deserve
and must have more pay and ye'
the teachers are hard 20 find.
Practically all the schools ~
Scurry county are well equipped and
most of them have made application
for free text books. Our communi-
ties are all made up of progressive.
intelligent people and teachers VIII
find pleasant work and agreeao"
surroundings and we hope yet 70
see all the schools taken
