Prince Makes
 Friends When With Ranchers

Miowera, New South Wales, Sept. 2S.zThe prince of Wales had the time of his life here among the hard riding, aight-shooting outspoken ranchers and, by his adaptability and good fellowship, made himself ex- tremely popular. He won their re- spcct when he entered five races against these premier horsemen and won all the events.
 The ranchers are having a quite smile over an amusing but somewhat embarrassing incident in which the prince was involved. With his usual "hail fellow well-met" bearing, the prince on one occasion asked every one in the house to have drink with him.
 After the drinks had been served the heir to the richest throne in the the world discovered he had no money. He called on Admiral Hal sey, who is touring with him, for funds but the only reply was: "I haven't shilling on me, sir"
 Finally another member of the royal party came to the rescue and the drinks were handed aroun1.

 The president kept his promise to these lads. A Newberrized senate because insanely jealous of Demo- cratic accomplishment. The body forgot in few short months the principles the nation had demanded these soldiers display to the world.

barrels of oil at B cost of $45.OOi were used which, with the spray can, rep resents the entire cash outlay. Nhe work has been in charge of the school superintendent, MT. ". E.. Eastman, who has been trained to keep up the work in the future. It may be added that he has become a very enthusiastic worker in favor of mosquito control. Blood smears have shown that number of the boys were infected before being commit ted, but this summer not a single new case of malaria has occurred among either the boys or workmen on the premises.
 Education in mosquito control has been the principal object of the work at the State Industrial School as the number of persons there at any one time did not exceed fifty, lit being intended to demonstrate that very effective mosquito control could be established in g small area and it is not costly and is also sim pie in application. The boys them selves are usually committed for q few months only, are trained in the work by doing it -themselves, enjoy the immunity from mosquito annoy ance and go. out all over the state with that education and experience. There are several farms in the im- mediate vicinity and q number of Pine Bluff people are interested in the school that visitors are more numerous than is usual in such an institution. The farm is located at the end of rather popular hard surface road so that automobile par ties are common, particularly on Sunday, and those have an oppor- tunity to see the work done along the highway and to compare the. free dom from mosquitos with their own infected homes. Decided progress has already been made in surmount- ing the opposition of neighboring farmers and a decided spread of the work in cooperation with them is planned for next year. if not sooner. As soon as the permanent buildings are completed boys will be transfer red to Pine Bluff and much larg- CT number will become familiar with mosquito control work.
 Education is very necessary in Pine Bluff as we'll as in it's vicinity as
 the future malarial control is a mat ter of cooperation between the city

WHY sCRATCH7

Boy inmates at the State Indus- trial farm near Pine Bluff are not bothered with mosquitos. Action has been taken by the state to rid the sector on which, the farm is located of the pests.
 William Ropes, sanitary engineer of the International, Health board, has made a survey of the mosquito situation at the, farm and has told Pine Bluffians how easy it is to get rid of mosquitos. His investi- gations at the farm were made at the request of the state health authori- ties. Pine Bluff people are urged to do something and the Graphic has been asked by J. E. Boyce, president of the Cotton Belt Savings and Trust company to present the sanitary en- gineer's report. It follows:
 About May 18th the writer was asked by pr. c. w. Garrison, Arkan- sas State Health Officer, to make a survey of the farm purchased by the state authorities for the purpose of establishing reform school for boys. Considerable opposition was made to the purchase of this site, it being stated among other objections that the land was in flat, malarious locality and infested with mosquitoes, all of which was undoubtedly true. The survey was made to recommend measures to be taken to control the malarial situation for the benefit of the boys committed to the institution and the workfnen engaged on the erection of the permanent school buildings. It was also intended to train a man in mosquito control work to continue it at the school and to demonstrate to the nearby city of Pine Bluff that such work can be successful even on . small scale and at low cost.
 The breeding of culex mosquitos was almost entirely in pools acoured out by flood waters and in an old we'll, all on land under cultivation immediately adjoining the temporary school buildings and in some of these pools the breeding was very great Anopheles breeding was found in similar pools in the woods, in the bayou, . sluggish stream winding through the farm irregularly from west to east and in two springs re- spectively 800 to 1000 feet east and west of the farm buildings. As tenn porary measure oiliig was begun i'm mediately with knapsack sprayer the old we'll was filled, the shallow pools cleared of brush, weeds, logs and drift. The shallow pools were kept oiled until they dried up ane several of the deeper drained by ditching. The spring channels wer, ditched slightly, cleared of grass ant weeds and oiled once week. as on,
 spring was not on the school lant
 proper ditching was not possible
 owing to opposition of the owner
 The bayou was cleared of logs ant

 school property to point a hal
