COCKLE BURS POISON
 HOGS, WARNS DIR. BUx|

Many hogs die each year in Arkan- sas from eating cookie bur plants, just when the first two leaves ap- pear, according to Dr. J. H. Bux, U. s. Bureau of Animal Husbandry. Hogs will net eat the plant unless other forage is lacking. The animals are often found dead in fields where many cookie burs grow without any sign of sickness having been noted before death. Treatments for this poison have not been found. The bur or seed it not poisonous but may kill the hogs by obstructing the bowels. pr. Bux advises that the preventative measures against cookie tsr poison ing are to keep the hogs off of pas lures where young cookie burs are growing unless other forage is fair ly abundant.

LEAGUE OF
 WOMEN VOTERS
:. NON-PARTISIAN ORGANIZA- TON OF WOMEN WHOSE PUR- POSE IS TO EDUCATE PEOPLE FOR CITIZENSHIP.

The League of Women Voters which vas organized in Chicago in February has for it's immediate purpose the edu- cation of the people for citizenship. The Arkansas League, organized in December, 1919, has already made some progress along this line. Dur mo the month of March citizenship schools have been held in as many counties, under the direction of Miss Marie Ames of St. Louis. This work will continue under the direction of the State Chairman, Mrs. T. T. Cot nam and the Field Secretary, Miss Josephine Miller. The program enl- phasizes:
 The needs of Arkansas, (a) Educa- tional; (b) Moral; (c) Child Welfare.
 The organization of the National and State Government.
 The Status of Women under the laws of Arkansas.

FLOW UNDER ORGANIC
 MATTER; DON'T BURN IT

Arkansas farmers should blow un- der all straw, leaves, stalks and dead grass instead of burning them. With but few exceptions the soils of the entire state are in need of organic matter whether they be hills or river bottoms, is the opinion of H. K. Thatcher, District Farg Agent with the Agricultural Extension Division.
 Organic matter in the soil supplies that peculiar necessary medium which enables plants to grow. With the de- pletion of this substances crop pro- duction is retarded and when the or ganic matter is all gone crops will not grow at all. Where crops are taken off each year and the corn and cotton stalks, grass and weeds are burnt up and no straw or barn yard manure plowed under, the soil grows poorer and poorer each year.
 Besides results of increased crop yields, the blowing under of organic matter has some physical benefit tIiat no farmer can deny. It loosens up the soil, giving it better air circu- lation, causes it to work easier, absorb and obtain 2 greater amount of rain fall, keeps the surface from baking after rain and tends to prevent erosion on hill soil.

HOOVER AND
 BURKS ACQUITTED
SELF CONFESSED MURDERER OF JOHN THORNTON RETRACTS
 STATEMENT HE MADE IMPLI-
 GAPING HOOVER AND BURKS.

Will Hoover and Joe Burks, farm CTS, residing near Boughton, were given a preliminary hearing before Justice w. R. Barham yesterday af- ternoon on charges of being acces- sories before the fact to the murder of John Thornton, seven miles from Prescott, on last Thursday and were discharged. John Minus Holder, who, it is alleged, made written confess sion of guilt waived examination and was held by Justice Jay Burns to await the county Grand Jury next July.
 A statement signed and sworn to by Holder, was introduced in evil dence against Hoover and Burks. On the witness stand Holder admitted making and signing the confession, but testified that he did SC through fear and intimidation of officers who had him in charge. He refused to an- swer any questions as to whether he killed young Thornton, but stoutly denied that either Hoover or Burks had anything to do with the killing, or that they had offered to pay him to commit the crime. Gilbert Buch- anan, county coroner, testified that Holder admitted to him in jail Mon- day that his written confession and implication of Hoover and Burks was false and that he intended to tell the truth about it. Other witnesses tes- tified that on the day Holder sur rendered to Sheriff Luke Steele, Holder told them no one assisted or encouraged him in the homicide.
 Mrs. Lizzie Thornton, mother of the murdered boy, testified that her son told her he was afraid of Hoover and Burks because they had threat ened to kill him if he testified be- fore the Grand Jury that they were implicated in driving Richard Thorn ton from this county more than year ago. She testified that her son professed religion three months ago and confessed to her and others that he and Hoover and Burks and others were guilty of disposing of Richard The court ruled this tes- tinony out as being improper.
 Holder maintained calm delnean- or upon the witness stand except at times when h ewould sharply criticise who were examining him, and in his denial of the truthfulness of his written statement.

If the League or Women voters is able to give to the State of Arkansas an interested and intelligent electorate it will ren- der an inestimable service.
 In addition to this educational work the committee on Child Welfare is planning to make survey of the State in order to determine the req sons of the deaths of so many child ren under the age of 12 months. This committee is also urging every wo- man in the State to write to our two senators, and representatives to vote for the Shepherd-T Towner Bill for the protection of maternity and infancy. This bill will appropriate large sum of money to be distributed among the states and will be used under the, di- rection of trained workers for the protection of poor mothers and their young babies. When we realize that 16,000 women die in childbirth every year, we will immediately see the inn portance of doing all within our pow CT to secure the passage of this bill, which, when in operation, will no doubt, save many of these lives.
 This League is n-partisian, it's officers and members are free to join the party of their choice.

OWNERS OF BRANDY
WANT PROTECTION

BENTONVlLLE, Ark, Feb. 23-Fol
lowing two robberies OF local govern
ment warehouses within the past few
months, it is probable the 32 barrels OF
apple brandy remaining in the ware
house here will be transferred by the
commissioner of internal revenue to
some other warehouse. 1t is said own
ers of the brandy will make applica
cation to have it removed to bonded
warehouse in Louisville, Ky.
Revenue tax on the brandy is due
when it is removed from the ware
house, and must be paid by the own
er even on the stolen goods. The
owners are anxious to have the goods
removed to a place of greater safety
than the Bentonville warehouse has
proven to be of late.

PRODUCERS WOULD
TAKE STOCK IN FACTORIES
TO GUARANTEE CREDITS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25-American
manufacturers and producers of raw
materials are finding out what Euro
pean buyers have % offer as security
before they send their materials
abroad
Inquiries are pouring into the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor here
acking for details Of arrangements
whereby American investors can as
sure themselves of payments for their
goods either in the form of mortgages
ON the plants of the European man
nfacturer or dividends on stock.
Government officials her9 are of the
opinion the United States investor
might in that way assist the United
States producer and shipper sell his
Uw material and to get Gai"i pay
ment for it. Europe must have our
raw material they point out. 1t can
not get it unless it pays for it and
it cannot pay for it unless credits
are extended. 1t is the plan to back
these credits up by accepting secur-
tiles of the plants themselves.
Generally speaking, big financial
men are disinclined to risk heavily
in Europe. Government officials, how
ever, say investment of American dol
lars in Europe is natural and logical,
If negotiable through private enter
prises with safe and sane backing.
Wouldbe investors in European con.
Germs cite as proof of their hopes,
the enormous profits now being made
by English cotton mills, which are
reported to be earning dividends rang
ing up to 300 per cent on capital stock.
Boom time dividends also are being
paid by European concerns holding
large oil and rubber properties.
Many American business men say
the present situation is like that pre-
vailing when the u S. was building
UP its transcontinental railroad, open
ing its great mines and laying the
foundations of great factories.
Within the next 10 years, approx
mately $3,OO0,OOO,OO0 will be invested
abroad by Americans, it is predicted.
Americans have it in their power to
save and invest nearly this entire
sum within one year, it was said
here today.
