AShDOMM'S CENSUS IS
 BEING TAKEN THIS WEEK
City Council Taking Steps to Find if We May Become City of the
 Second Class.

The Ashdown City Council has en- ployed A. s. Fellows to take the census of Ashdown. Mir. Fellows is beginning his work this week, and will endeavor to make it as accurate as possible He will need the cooperation of all in se- curing this data. The city council is taking this step in order to determine whether we have population sufficient to be created into city of the second class. A few years ago Ashdown be- came city of the second class by a legislative act, but later the supreme court ruled that a city could not be legally raised in that way. There are many advantages in being in that class
 Ashdown has grown in population since the last census nearly ten years ago, but just what we have is merely guess work We will soon be able to know just how big we really are

WILL PLANT EaORE FEED,
 REDUCE COTTON ACREAGE
County Meeting Held at AshdOwn Sat. urday Afternoon; Situation Was
 Put in Strong Terms.

If the sentiment of the meeting at the court house Saturday afternoon is carried out throughout Little River county there will be a marked reduc- tion in the cotton acreage the coming year and an increase in the production of feed and food and live stock. With town was closed from 1 to o'clock for the meeting, which had been called in accordance with a proclamation from Governor Brough.
 D. A. Cook of Foreman was elected to preside over the meeting. A Gold smith in a. strong speech stated the object of the meeting. MT. Goldsmith said that real financial crisis faced the South the coming year unless the food and feed crops were increased and the cotton acreage reduced. Cotton could be produced at the present prices and big crop next year would proba- bly, bring lower prices and bankruptcy Corn is selling at $2.00 per bushel and everything else in proportion. He had no patience with calling on the law makers for relief. The farmers had the solution in their own hands, and with nine million bale crop could get as much money and would have their own feed to produce it. County Demon strator G. M. Johnston followed with a strong talk and read a, letter from Dr. Knapp very much to the point. He added that they had been guaranteed market for every peanut that could be grown and said it was good money crop.
 T. B. Cook Red River planter, was called and spoke along practical lines. He told of his experience with hogs, which had proved very profitable :. John DuLaney made splendid and forceable talk, which emphasized the situation with all it's gravity
 A. c. Stephens, a practical farmer, opoiAO lOi q ACW IllAuIcS. He Sdlu LUGs he had raised no cotton for several years and was doing so we'll that he was going to continue along the same lines
 Voted to Reduce Cotton.
 At the close of the meeting the en- tire audience voted to reduce the cot ton acreage from one-third to one fourth. While the attendance was not as large as it should have been the sentiment should spread throughout the country and should be talked on every occasion. The warning is in time. The solution is in the hands of each individual. He can so arrange his crop that whatever befalls he will be protected and can reap year of prosperity. There is good money in everything he can raise except a big cotton crop. It will not do to depend on what the other fellow is going to do. The safe plan is to make this a per sOnal matter and advise your neighbor to do likewise, pointing to him the rocks that are ahead if he persists in following old lines, and the continued prosperity if he uses proper judgment.

ELY WINS FROM
ElK0 ANDM' GILL
IN BASKET BALL
White Pine High School Boys
and City Team Have On
Their Victory Clothes in
Hard Fought Battles

Staying qdality of the highest de-
gree won for the County High school
quintet the high score In a hard and
fast game of basketball with the Elko
team Friday night at the Bio hall.
Macart as forward on the local
team proved his title to his name
Hercules, as no task was too great
for him. and when he associated with
the ball he usually acted as Its es-
eort to the hoop although he had to
batter through three replacements,
but finished without first aid. There
was not weak spot in the Ely team,
all the boys playing excellent team
work. fast and furious. The game
was one of the best ever played here
and although the score might indicate
an easy winning let 1t be known 1t
was not a walk-away. but a fiercely
contested battle from start to finish.
The Elko boys were good sports and
worthy opponents and finished like
thoroughbreds. even though they
were only able to gather in a score
of 2s to the 43 netted by the local
high school team
Following this game the heavy
weights took the floor and 1t was a
game of brain and brawn be-
tween Ely and McGill that held
the audience in suspense and the
scales of scores evenly balance. A
good many of the players in This con-
test. bot6 Ely and McGill men, have
recently returned from M eltary train
ing camps and trenches. and were in
prime condition for athletics and en-
durance McGill worked the Ely boys
rnreasonabiy hard and at times al
most made them nervous about the
outcome, but 1t was Ely's night and
the score was Ely 20, McGill 26,
What proved to be a poor floor
for the quintettes was very much ap-
preciated by the merry young people
who enjoyed the dance after the
game.
Next Friday morning the high
school team leaves for Elko to play
the same team In Elko Friday night.
The local boys think they can do IL
