vice, made a field trip of inspection
recently on the Sitgreaves National
Forest, located in this state. Here

The following eXtact, now
timely in view of the general
unrest, is taken from Henry
Ford's paper, the Dearborn
(Mich.) Independent:
+" The people of the United
States are capable of team
work for long periods and for
hard jobs. We have proved
that whenever we have a job
that enliStS our interest and
conviction we can 60 at it in
resisIless power and united
purpose.
"NeVer in all our history
was the nation so united as
during 1917-18. Take all the
great crises of our national
life since its beginning, and
in none of them was the ma
ton so free of division.
eve sometimes get the i'm
preston from books that the
nation was united during the
Revolutionary War. But it
wasn't. The detection among
'the fathers was greater
than the most violently sus-
piClouS patriot could have
imagined in 1917. And SO it
was in the time of the civil
War-the North SO torn by
division as to endanger the
reelection or Abraham Lin
coin.
but although we We're
more polyglot in 1917 ard
had more ties stretching
across the seas, the fact is
that when the World War
came upon US we presented a
greater spectacle of unity on
the basis of the ideal than
ever we had done before.
"All of which but empha-
sizes the question: Why is it
that in 1917 we can do every
thing without division and
internal strife, while in 1919
we are pulling and hauling in
an endless series of antago-
nisns w hich threaten to
overturn our whole national
prosperity ? Why is it ?
'SWhy cannot we achieve
as high a degree of unity for
the purpose Of saving the
United States as we achieved
for whipping our enemies !?

ONLY FIVE BILLS OF
 LAST SESSION VETOED

Little Rock, Oct 22.-Gov. Brough yesterday afternoon completed the wok of signing the bills passed by the recent special session. There were nearly 300 of them, and only five were vetoed. Two bills by Mir. Anderson of Little Rover county, changing the boundaries of special school districts in Little River county, were vetoed, on the ground that the proposed changes would work a hardship on the Ogden district.
 Secretary Ira Langley of the Sen ate and Chief Clerk Jim Higgins of the House were compelled to work late, with all their clerical force, to complete the bills for the signature of the presiding officers and the gov ernor before the expiration of the constitutional period of twenty days. But they did it and not bill was lost.

ReraH Cold Tablets

Are for heavy colds-the kind that ordinary remedies do not seem to reach effectively. Gently laxative, pleasant to take, they seem to get right at the cold. The relief they afford is usually so prompt and decisive as to ex- cite the patients wonder and admiration.
 Rexall Cold Tablets are, we believe, the very best remedy for heavy, deep-seated, obsti- nate colds. No matter how se- were your cold is, we guarantee Rexall Cold Tablets to relieve you and satisfy you in every way, or your money back.

The Price of
Pork Chops and Bacon

Here are reasons why the fine,
fresh pork tenderloins and pork chops,
or savory ham, or crinkly bacon, which
you enjoy for breakfast cost much more
per pound than the market quotation on
Hvehogswhich you read in the newspaper:
An average hog weighs 22O pounds
Of this, only 70 per cent Q54 pounds)
is meat and lard.
So. when pay 15f pound for live hogs we
are really paying more than 21f pound for the
which we will get from these animals, even after
taking into account the value of the by-products
But people show preference for only one-third
Of the whole-the pork chops fancy bacon and choice
cuts from juicy hams.
This means that when we are selling Premium
bacon at 43hs per pound wholesale and Premium
hams at 30f, there other parts for which we
get as low as 81 81 per pound The net result is
an average profit to us of less than II pound.
The choice cuts are higher because Of demand
for them
Another thing: Only IS pounds of the entire hog
or about N this usually marketed at once The rest
must be picked cured, smoked. This takes
months and adds to the costs which must be met

4 NEW YORK, March 1.-THE New
York Evening Sun financial review
today said:
The new week opened with trad
ing in stocks in large volume, al
though the bulk of the business
transacted was in a limited number
of groups and in specialties which
nave more or less attractive specula-
tive possibilities.
The oil, motor and fertilizer stocks
Were pitched upon greedily and were
bid up briskly, not to mention such
specialties as Wilson Company, Corn
Products Refining, Consolidated Gas,
United Cigar Stores, Baldwin Loco
motive and Midvale Steel. Gains of
IA to points were recorded in the
oils, Mexican Petroleum, Texas Com
pany and Sinclair leading, with Tex
as and Pacific railroad shares join
ing vigorously in the movement.
Southern Pacific was not responsive,
however holding back on light deal
ings in company with the other rail-
road shares, which were irregular
within narrow range. Stee1s were
merely steady, ai.h>'aEh they be
haved well in the face of an adverse
