ARK ANSAS ~" WORK GETS
 PUBLICITY IN PARIS

Little Rock, Feb. 27,--Arkansas Y. Nj, C, A. work is getting publicity as far away as France. The fact that Arkansas is going to spend sloo, ,ooo on Y. Nj. C. X. work among her boys is considered good copy" by the ed. itors of the Paris edition of the New Yord Herald, who published in re- cent issue the following dispatch, a copy of the paper haviny been just received from an Arkansas man there;
 The State Directors of the Y. Nj. C. A. have announced that more than s100,000 will be expended on the Ar kansas boys by the Y. M. C. A. dur. ing I9l9," says the dispatch in sub stance.
 The fact that Arkansas has under taken to organize every county in the state for Y. Nj. c. A. work and has a program calling for carrying of the Y. Nj. c, A. message into every high school ;T the state and in making its good influence felt in the boy life of every village and hamlet in the state, is really worthy of publicity as far away as Paris because Arkansas has taken a step forward that is away ahead of many other states. A few eastern states have caught the spirit and will do big things. Maine, for instance, will spend S35o,0oo for State Y. Nj c. A.Pwort, but our own state is making ah enviable record" said ]. R. Dickinson, State Chairman.

VALUABLE HOLsTEIN cow

The registered Holstein COW, Zelpha Kruger DeKol, is owned by the State Agricultural School, Third District Magnolia, Arkansas. She produced in January 16575 pounds, or 207.2 gallons of milk and 60 pounds of butter.
 The total value of the milk and butter was S71.40, cost of feed $26.35, leaving q profit of $4505.
 The butter was used and paid for by students and teachers of the school The milk was disposed of in this way and fed to chickens and pigs Skimmilk is one of the most valu- able of feeds, and if the farmer feeds all surplus to best breeds of livestock he has at his door Il profitable means for handling every pound produced lie may not be able to seii milk to advantage, but he can sell poultry products and hogs This enables him to market at a profit the gross of his pasture and much that would other wise go to waste.
 The herd of Jerseys and Holsteins are proving very profitable at the Agricultural School.

MADE GREAT
ENGINE FOR CAR
Hobbs Garage on Calumet
Avenue, Sells Fine
Auto Accessories

The great outstanding feature OF the
Briscoe car handled by the Hobbs
Garage on Carroll street. near Calumet
avenue. Hammond. is its motor. This
wonderful engine designed originally in
France where gasoline costs even under
normal conditions are several times
wha; Americans pay. Hence the basic
idea Of the engineers from the start has
been fuel economy.
Biscoe engineers have devoted the best
part OF n decade 10 minimizing the
power losses due 70 friction and Inn
proper combustion which in the best 81
motors eat up q large part Of the de-
veloped energy. Today their motor Is
the wonder az the industry and its fame
has spread round the world.
AT the same time they have worked
out hundreds or shortcuts in manufac-
turing the many parts which enter into
the construction Of a car. Ninety-nine
per cent of the parts Of the Briscoe are
made in their own factory. insuring low
er cost. exact duplication Of parts,
greater production and dependability.
The Hobbs garage also does repair
work. backed by a real guarantee and
handles a complete line Of accessories.

WILD SCRAMBLE FOR
NEVADA SILVER

The scramble ior silver prop
critics in Nevada is assuming pro-
portions that are somewhat ri
diculous in the opinion OF the
oWner OF developed property or
the estimate of an operator who
has expended capital in bringing
a prospect to the producing state.
Frantic kilograms from New
York and other eastern cities,
directing agents to purchase sill
yer mines outright, or TO take over
prospects without payment OF
any consideration. are coming to
hand every hour, indicating that
New York operators arc appre-
ciative OF the opportunities ior
speculation now afforded by the
silver properties. Conditions in
Nevada. however, are in such
shape that most of the owners
of good prospects can find CAPT
tai Tor development without a
great deal OF trouble. As for real
silver mines, there is no record
OF any for sale al any price.
Some OF the scouts who have re-
turned to San Francisco during
the past few days predict that

paid this winter for properties
which might have been purchased

ANOTHER VICTIM
FOR LAKE TAHOE

Capt. F. H. Pomin, skipper of
the steamer Tahoe on Lake Tahoe
for the past twentyfour years, was
found drowned in the cold waters
of the lake near a pier at Tahoe
City Monday morning by his
wife. ltwas thought that he was
walking on the pier when the ice
and snow caused him 10 slip into
the water and drown. No one
was near at the time and when he
did not apear for lunch, his wife
went in search OF him and found
the body floating in the clear wa
ter near the steamer pier.
The captain} was one OF the
most familiar figures around the
lake where he had spent the last
forty-five years OF his life. He
had been captain OF the steamer
Tahoe since it was placed on the
lake twenty-four years ago and
had made the trip around the lake
every day of the tourist season
and twice week in winter. He
was considered an authority upon
the lake and knew its whims and
temper better than any man in
the region.
He was seventy years old and
leaves wife and five children.
An effort will be made to clear
the snow between Tahoe City and
Truckee so that the body can be
taken to the Coast for burial.
