LOCAL BILLS MUST
BE ADVERTISED
Governor Elect McRae Declares He
viii Veto ANY Measure Passed
Without Being Accompanied
by Proof of Publication.

Little Rock, Nov. 13.-Anyone who
wishes to have a local bill passed by
the next legislature should be sure
that it has been given the thirty days
advance notice required by the consti-
tuition. Governor-elect McRae is said
to have advised some of the law MAX
ers that he will positively require all
local bills to be advertised as eontem-
plated by the constitution and that he
will veto bills that do not meet this re-
quirement. This will work a radical
change in methods of legislation that
have grown up in Arkansas during
recent sessions of the General Assem-
bly, Only in rare instances have bills
of local nature been accompanied by
proof of publication when introduced.
Efforts of opponents of local meas
ures to have the records show that the
bill had not been advertised, as pro-
vided by law, have not invariably been
voted down and in several instances
where such statement was placed in
the Journal, it was later expunged. The
rule prevails that the courts will not
go back of the records to determine
whether or not a bill had compiled
with the law, it being presumed that
the records speak the truth. II this
new ruling should be enforced, the vol
ume of local legislation will be very
materially reduced at the coming ses-
sion.

TICK QUARANTINE
AREA is ALTERED
Department of Agriculture Releases
Many Districts, Restricts 9th
ers-More to Be Freed.


Washington, Nov. 12.--Release of
32,I7l square miles of quarantine
area in the cattle tick district infested
states Of the south was announced to-
day by the Department of Agriculture
effective December ~. Failure of
county officials to cooperate in eradi-
eating the tick in their area caused
the requarantining of 1917 square
miles, the statement said. Under the
revised quarantine approximately 218,-
600 square miles are held to be in
Tested.
In Louisiana Arcadia parish was
released and St. Helena, Livingstone
Sabin LaSalle and Calcasieu parishes
and part of Ouachita parish were re-
quarantined. In Oklahoma Atoka and
Bryan the rest of I.atimer and Sc
quoyah and part of LeFlore and
Choctaw counties were released.
In Texas Bell, Brown, Burnett
Camp, Coryell, Delta, Denton Falls,
Franklin. Gillespie, Hill, Hopkins,
Lampass, Limestone, Nils, Navarro,
San Saba and Wise and part of CO.
manche and Lamar counties were re-
leased.
There was no modification in Ar.
kansas, Florida and Virginia. Work
against the cattle tick generally is pro-
crossing very successfully, the an
nouncement said, and with full coun-
" cooperation "a more substantial.
area will be freed from quarantine
next year."

WILL BE GREAT CORN SHOW.
In Chicago, November q, $4,000 to
Be Awarded in Prizese.
tBy International News servicel

(By International News Servicel
! Lafayette, Ind, Nov. IA thous-
and ten ear samples of corn will form
a part Of the big exhibit at the In
ternational Hay and Grain Show in
! Chicago, November 81 to December
d, at which prizes totaliing $4,000
will be awarded by the Chicago Board
of Trade to encourage general crop
improvement.
A departure from the method fol-
lowed last year has just been an
nounced by Professor G.. |. Christie,
director of experimental and extern
sion work at Purdue University, who
is managing the show. Last year
corn samples comprising twenty ears.
This year the samples will be only
ten ears. Professor Christie pointed
out that it is much easier to pick a
ten-ear sample, and the exhibitor is
able to show corn as good or better.
All corn states favored this change
The action, it is believed, will bring
the number of corn exhibition to 1000
or more.
A class has also been provided for
single ear samples of corn. Rivalry
in this contest will be keen.
Not only the corn belt but the
east, the far west, the south and Can
ada are displaying sharp interest in
the classes for small grains and seeds
for hay and forage crops. There will
be interesting competition also for
prizes offered for field peas, soybeans,
COW peas and clover. alfalfa, timothy,
alsike and similar seeds.
w. @. Fitch also of Purdue Univer-
sity, has been appointed assistant sup
erintendent of the show and will be in
active charge of arrangements.
