POUer Company Is
 Sued for S4OO,O2l

Newport, May 12.-The city of Newport, through it's attorney, Ira J. Mack, has filed suit in the cir cult court of Jackson county, against the Arkansas Light and Power Com pany for damages to the amount of S4OO,O21. The sum of $1,000 per day is asked for penalties cited in the complaint dating back to March 13, 1a19. The city alleges that the Arkansas Light & Power Co. failed to comply with the city ordinance and that the company repeatedly failed to comply with it's contract of furnishing pure and wholesome water for drinking purpose, and that the water pressure was not enough to give adequate fire protection For each day the company failed to comply with the requirements $1,0O0 is asked. The company has repeat edly failed to comply with its re- ouirements, and in April hearing of the company was had before the corporation commission for raise in rates, but no official statement has ever been received. This is one of the biggest damage suits ever filed in the county of Jackson, and the city declares it has ample proof to sustain it's charges made Tn the complaint.

SOME DON'TS FOR THE
 YOUNG POULTRY RAISER

Don't allow your hens to eat de- cayed flesh of any kind unless you want them to get limberneck. Many fowls die from this trouble.
 Don't allow filth and dampness in and around your poultry roasting house; these will cause roup and its attending ills.
 Don't let the mites and lice get the upper hand about your place. They will cause untold trouble and loss of both young and old stock.
 Don't be afraid to give your fowls an abundance of green stuff at all seasons. It is their salvation whether they are old or young.
 Don't be afraid to invest a few dollars in good stock any more than you would in improved seeds and grain.
 Don't keep any males with the fe. males unless you are matching the eggs. Infertile eggs will keep much longer than fertile ones Don't put allsizes, shapes anc colors of eggs in one lot for market learn to grade them so they vii look as much like one hen laid then as possible.

 Don't be afraid to work with youl poultry the year round. It is tn, only road to success. No matter what other duties are, the poultry should not be neglected. Don't expect every egg to hatcl when you buy eggs froma breeder Your own eggs will not do that vel as a rule.
 Don't attempt to raise more thar one kind of good standard breC chickens, if you wish to reap tho most benefit from them.-H. L. Will Hams, Poultry Specialist, Extension Division, Louisiana State University The Progressive Farmer.

WHAT CALIFORNIA VOTED.

The initiative measure accepted by
he voters of California restricting own
arship of land by aliens guarantees full
tights to acquire, possess, enjoy and
transfer real property to "all aliens eli
gible to citizenship under the laws of
the United States" The rights of "all
other aliens" to buy and hold real es-
tate are limited to the terms of amy
treaty now existing between the govern
ment of the United States and the ma
ton or country of which such alien is
a citizen"
Apparently no violation of treaty OBJ
legations is intended by the law and ia
pan itself has law against aliens hold
ing land in that country. Some Jap
anese understand the situation and the
Japanese Review of International Law
says the anti-Japanese legislation of Cal
ifornia cannot be dealt with as "a legal
question but by political and diplO-
matte methods" The strength of Cali
fornia's position is shown by this ad-
mission.
