During the operation of the draft in the war, 386 Arkansas men were dis charged from the army with tuber- culosis and 732 were rejected by the draft boards and army surgeons for the same cause, making a total of HIS active cases found by the army among the young men of military age in the state. This is striking ex- ample of the prevalence of this dis ease and the manner in which it is undermining the energies of our peo- pie. It is this condition which the Arkansas Public Health Association seeks to overcome.

MAY OPERATE FALL0N SUGAR
PLANT AGAIN THIS SEASON

Grounds for foreboding over the
possibility of Fallon losing it's best
sugar manufacturing plant, now idle
through disinterestedness in the in
dustry in the minds of the farmers
and the owners of the plant, have
been set at naught by an inquiry re-
ceived by former State Senator Tho
mas Dolf from the Utah owners
.shlng about the possibilities of beet
raising in this valley this season.
The real significance carried by the
message dispatched by the Utah
owners has to do with intent and ii
is apparent that the idea is enter
tanned of operating the Fallon factory
as a permanent enterprise, if not this
year, then in succeeding years, and
if the present prices for beets are
maintained throughout the future it
is generally deemed certain that beet
sugar manufacture will be revived
as a state industry Churchill

STOCK FEEDING PROPOSITION
SERIOUS AT LOyELOCK-FALLON

Many Elko county stockmen are be-
ginning to get worried over the rail-
road strike as they have cattle at
Lovelock and Fallon and no more
hay. These cattle were shipped there
last fall and fed through the winter
months, just enough hay being con-
tracted for to feed the stock until
this time of the year, when they
would be shipped back to Elko and
turned out on the range. The far
mers of Fallon and Lovelock have sold
all their hay and there is none left
in the valley and unless the rail-
roads can soon begin to move their
freight. and bring the cattle back to
Elko, it will be a problem to provide
feed for the thousands of cattle 10Y

DEMAND FOR FINE
WOOL CONTINUES

The tendency of the demand in the
wool trade is still for fine grades.
There are a few transactions reported
in low-quality woods, but il is con-
cluded that the sellers are taking a
loss. The woods are extremely scarce
and the only business possible is in
small lots for matching purposes.
Manufacturers maintain that the
public demand is running stronger
han ever for fine worsteds, and it is
even thought that, owing to the
scarcity of fine woods, a substitute
will have to be invented to satisfy the
desire for. de~licately finished material.
AS a result of the continued
strength in fine, to the neglect of Il
bloods and lower, holders of the lat
ter are finding it extremely difficult
to carry their stocks. Those who own
their own warehouses are not placed
N the awkward position of those hav-
ing to pay storage, but ever they feel
they could use their space to better
advantage. Carrying charges are
very high and dealers who bought
medium to low woods anticipating a
change in the market are left with
large stocks on their hands, faced
with the alternative of increasing ex-
penses or practically giving them

rise OF "a cents.
The unexpected bullish nature of

ly responsible. Corn closed unsettled

Oats SCARED to prices which over
topped all previous records. Demands
was on a big scale. principally from
shorts. A large eastern speculator IN
cotton who was conspicuous figure
in person here today on the trading
floor was also said to have bought
heavily. Inasmuch as n bearish gov
ernment report had as a rule been
looked for. the majority of dealers
were taken by surprise, especially so
over announcement of a falling off in

Continued meagerness of receipts OF
oats. together with predictions that
the available car supply would become

rushes to purchase inevitable. No i'm
