TO PREVENT KILLING OF STOCK
Many Thousand of Dollars in Stock
 Killed by Carelessness Each Year.

Little Rock, March 17.-'The cam paign of the State Council of Defense to reduce the number Of stock killed by the railroad so that more food can be conserved is being vigorously con- tinued," said Adjutant General Lloyd England, chairman of the council. He called attention to the fact that Am erica has pledged 20,00O,O0O tons of food to our allies this year, and for this reason the country must still con- tinue to conserve food although the war is over. He further stated that the council of National Defense is pushing this campaign all over the United States, and that it has already resulted in a great reduction of stock losses. Continuing. he said "six mill lion pounds of meats, fats, and leather were uselessly and needlessly wasted in Arkansas last year, when 22,0Oo head of live stock were killed by the railroads cooperating by improving fences and cattle guards, and stock owners using more care to keep their stock off the tracks, we believe the year 1919, will show large reduc- tion over last year in the number of stock killed"

 and Rainlall-H1gh Water.

From that place the destruc- tion of two buildings is reported as well as another house being unroofed. The old school building, now used as q Masonic hall, was completely des- troyed by the storm. The barn of John Miller waws blown away and it's contents of corn and cotton seed widely scattered. The roof was blown from the residence of Roy Clingan. It was said that Clingan went out during the storm to see what damage was being done and when he returned to his room found that the whole house was leaking. Taking another look he discovered that the entire roof had been blown away.
 There wss a high wind in Ashdown end minor damages done. A sign was blown against a plate glass window in front of the Haynes Cafe completly wrecking it, but so far as is known no more serious damages ocurred.

DROUGH THINKS SOLONS
 SHOULD BE PAID SALARY
The Legislature Then Could Be Kent i'll Session Until Important Leg
 1slatien Is Enacted.

Little Rock, March 15.-In a state ment issued yesterday by the gover-. nor on the work of the legislature. he says:
 "A harder working body of men never assembled in Arkansas. The house, and often the senate. was in night session and committees of both houses worked tirelessly day and nigh, considering measures of importance to the state
 Tn my opinion a sixty day session. is unwise. The legislature should be put upon salary and held until the necessary legislation is enacted
 Because of the congested condition of the calander, important revenue measures, such as financing the state penitentiary and putting it on absol- utely a cash basis, and the question of caring for the excess of approxi- mately $7000,0OO appropriated beyond the estimated biennial revenue of $3,- 100000 were hurriedly considered ane thrown into the legislative waste bas- ket.
 Because of the importance of these measures, and in my opinion, that the constitution framed in 1918 should be re-submitted, it is likely that I shal: call the legislature in extra session, sometime in July or August, to con sider the question of providing ade- quate revenue to finance the state penitentiary, to re-submit tn coen- stitution and, probably, a general road measure for the whole state, and cura tive local road acts.
 ''It is estimated that a session of ten or fifteen days will cost about $500 day, as the members will serv~ at one-half the usual per-diem or s day"

 BY THE GERMANS

 Plan at Present.

Brussels, March 15-The German delegates to the conference here re- garding the taking over by the allies of the German mercantile fleet and the provisioning of Germany, today inde- initely accepted the conditions impos- ed by the allies.
 A board of control for German ex- ports will be estimated under the terms of the agreement This board probably will have it's headquarters at Rotterdam.
 The Germans will be permitted to buy fish from Norway and resume their own fishing in the North sea.
 The German representatives asked for modification of the blockade, and while no promises were given them, steps in that direction have already been taken.
 Extreme formality marked the meeting of the allied commission and the German delegation when the al lies announced a monthly food ration for Germany of 370,0O0 tons, in eS- change for specified shipping.
 The German representatives sat on enc side of long table while on the other side were an equal number of allied representatives. There were no greetings, salutations or amenities of any sort The whole proceedings were marked by impersonal rigidity The chairman of the German delegation stared at spot on the table and ad- dressed his remarks to no one in par ticular. Vice Admiral Sir Rosslyn Wemysss of Great Britain chairman of the al- lied delegation, began by reading {, statement prepared for him by the civilian members, calling on the Ger mans to say whether they abided by the terms of the armistice. Under Secretary of State yon Braun replied courtly: "Yes."
 Admiral Wemyss then read one page q typewriter memorandum, giving in crisp sentences the terms of the allies for granting food to Germany-the German merchant fleet to be handed over at once, financial provisions to be made at once, food to be delivered at once and to be con- tinued until the next harvest, or as long as Germany abided by the terms tf the agreement.

GOOD FARM MEETING
 WAS HELD AT ARDEN
Profitable Farming Speakers Held En. thusiastic Meeting at Arden Fri
 day: Good Interest Shown.

Chairman George Briant of the Pro. fitable Farming Committee, accompan- jed by Geo. M. Johnston, John Du- Laney, R. M Bone, Seth c. Reynolds, ored to Arden Friday afternoon, where most enthusiastic meeting was held.
 A. T. Hemphill and a. party from Richmond joined the party at the lat ter place. A fair crowd of farmers and Arden business men were in at tendance as we'll as a. number of lad ies and the entire school, although it was busy time and many farmers were busy with their farm work. MT. Briant made the opening talk, stating the object of the campaign. He intro duced John J. DuLaney, who respond ed with a most instructive and eloq-
 uent address along the lines hereto
 fore followed during the campaign, The keynote was on the fundamentals,
 more hogs, better hogs, as we'll as other livestock and poultry; more feed
 and cheaper feed. The peanut, the sweet potato and the Velvet bean were stressed. Geo. M. Johnston talk ed on cooperative marketing of live i, stock and explained the plan. The first car of hogs under this plan will be shipped this week.
 Mr. Briant concluded with further stress on the Velvet bean. He assur-
 ed the farmers that they need not be afraid to grow sweet potatoes as a curing house would be constructed at Ashdown with marketing facilities
 throughout the year. A number of , seed orders were taken.
 This being the first trip to Arden by some of the party the trip to Ar den from Richmond was visit to them of unexplored country. It was to say the least a, revelation. To Ar den from Richmond by way of Wades'
 Chape1sthe country is most beautiful The entire distance is covered by a continuous series of prosperous farms
 all the way on both sides of the road with long reaches of plowed land and men and teams busy everywhere turn ing up the fertile soil for the new crop, The farm homes along the route were far above the average. Nearly all ot them glistened with paint, indicating thrift and comfort. Some of them
 were the large colonial type of the
 before the war period while many were large and substantial. Many evil dences of recent improvements over the farms were noted. This is taken as a sample of what is going on all over the county.

Bishopp of Dallas, TexasE will arrive at Tucson, August Il, ready to join the Livestock Squad which will start on that day for a tour of the state holding meetings and dem onstrations with the range stockmen.
 MT, Bishopp is probably the best posted man in the United States on the control of animal parasites which in Arizona and in the southern and southwestern United States plays so important a part with the livestock production.
 MT. Bishopp is connected with the bureau of entomology of the U. s. de- partment of agriculture and has been stationed at Dallas, Texas, where he has had charge of the federal investi- gation on animal parasites for a num- Der of years. Last year an assistant of his office R. W. Wells was brought to Arizona by the agricultural exten- sion service and the stockmen profited greatly from his advice and practical demonstrations.
 Stockmen should get in touch with their county agent and secure the dates at which the Livestock Squad" meet ings will be held in their counties. A half dozen lines will make up the Livestock Squad" which will take the trip of a month over the state holding about 20 public livestock meetings.
