CATTLE DIPPING

Only County in South Ark1nsas That is Not Under

For thc past month Ouach.ta has been the South Arkansas Mecca for Texas buyers who. lured by most e,,- ccllcnr prospects of an exceptional sra>~ season in the coast counties of their own state. are ricing with each 0tllcr iu securing Arkansas cattle and rushing them home to get hem as quickly a~ possible on the now sHecu- lent TcXaS grazing grounds
 This has opened q fine cattle maltlo- for Ouaehita county owners at time Nlcn very badly needed. Due to eX- cc>s.fe moisture and repeated over- flows, our ordinarily fine range haS been rendered virtually nil as a slls- taining agent, with the result that most range cattle are reduced practically to d state of exhaustion brought about by inaniation from lacl, of grazing facili- ties.

WOOD TO HAVE WATER
WORKS?

There was a meeting held at the
Hardware store Tuesday evening of
this week to take up the matter of
supplying Wood with small system
of waterworks, and after some discus
sion it was decided to appoint = com
mittee to investigate the probable
cost of sinking a we'll large enough to
supply the entire town with water,
also to ascertain the probable cost OF
laying water main along Main and
First Streets and installing either II
stand pipe or an air pressure tank OF
sufficient force to afford some protec
ton in case of fire. A committee was
also appointed to ascertain how much
money could be raised to finance such
project,
We should like to see this whole
project carried through, and no doubt
it will he In time. 1t would be big
boost for Wood, but we fear that the
entire program as mapped out at tie
meeting is almost prohibitive at the
present time on account of the cost.
Our only method of financing such a
project at this time is by popular sub
scription.
What we really need TO do in Wood
is to incorporate the town, and then
we could approach project like this
in more business like way and we
would also be able to finance it in an
intelligent manner. We really be
lieve that the incorporation of Wood
is one of the things that should re
ceive the early attention of our citi
zens. If we were an incorporated city
we could have cement walks, a water
works system, keep our streets in good
condition, make people keep up their
stock within the corporate limits of
the town, enforce more stringent sani-
tary rules, and do many other things
that would help to put Wood on the
map as desirable place to live.

their entire satisfaction, OF the bountl

LOOKING FOR FEATHERS.

The more we hear Of this PROPOSE
tion to lend Europe another ship load
of money the more Objectionable the
whole scheme appears.
Europe Is not in good condition, we
admit. But Europe has land, 1t has
the tools and machinery for cultiyat-
ing that land, and it has the men to
use the tools.
or course with SO many men killed
IN the war, it might become necessary
for few of the gilded dandies to soil
their hands with honest toll In order
to secure the necessary production Of
food stuffs. But that would do them
good-it might even eventually raise
them to the status of real men.
Europe wants to feather its nest.
but we fear 1t does not want to resort
20 manual labor to bring about this
felch desired result. 1t prefers that
the United States furnish ,he feath-
grs.
4 But, somehow, we are forced to the
conclusion that we have feathe red en-
ough nests on the other side of the
Atlantic,
Europe knows there Is to be anoth-
er great war, and wants to set it's
house in order to meeG it. Being short
of feathers our good foreign friends
are averse to pursuing the slow pre-.
cess Of waiting for them to grow. 1t
Is easier to pluck them from Uncle
Sam, even If Uncle has to turn his
pockets inside out in order to accomo
date his good friends abroad.
But Uncle's hundred million chill
dren can't see 1t from that same an
gle. Thoy are distressingly preyerse
and stubborn.
4 Then, too, Europe Is panied at the
volume of trade American manufac-
turers have built up since the war be
gan. They desire exceedingly to boil
ster up their own manufacturing in
tereSts. and to divert this flow Of vel
low metal toward their own empty
Golfers.
But to do this requires money
much money--and the easiest and
simplest way is to pluck it from Uncle.
But even Uncle himeelf Is becoming
.skeptical. He has loaned our dear
friends in Europe billions Of dollars
already, and he can't even collect the
interest on the loans When he will
be able to collect the principle the
the Lord only knows.
Citizens of the United Saates are
paying enormous income taxes In or
der to keep the ship Of state afloat.
and now word comes from Washing
ton that we will have to cut expenses
or raise taxes or sell more bonds.
Our great army has flown to the
-Four winds, our navy is almost out of
business for lack Of men, and our mil
lions of war material has been sold to
the French. We are in the position
of the juvenile giant who is so heavy
and unwieldy he cannot even fieck the
dust from his own shoes.
We have money. yes; but If hell
breaks loose again we will have dire
need for every dollar of it.
Feather Europe's nest again?
Nothing doing! Self protection Is
the first law Of nature. Keep those
thirty-tye billion dollars at home:
Drop few feathers in the Eagles
nest first.
