Watch Arkansas Crow was the headline in the Arkansas Gazette an- nouncing the census report on Little River county We were proud of the fact the AshdoWn had made such re- markahle growth when the announce ment was made some weeks ago, but We are more than glad to know that the county is growing all over in pop ulation That is the most healthful indica ion of all and justifies fully the growth of the town. Ten years ago the county as whole showed a de- crease. Many people could not un- derstand the reason, which at that time was caused by the passing of the big sawmill camps, which are only temporary and fleeting things at best. The growth today is based upon the permanent industries, largely agricul- tural, which will grow and grow as the years pass. They are not tram sient and do not pass away. The fut- ure is bigger than the past.

OODSOh WOULD STOP SALE 0F CAL0MEl Says Calomel is Mercury and Acts Like Dynamite on
 Your Liver.

Dodson is making hard fight against calomel in the South. Every druggist has noticed great falling off in the sale of calomel. They all give the same reason, Dodson's Liver Tone is taking it's place.
 "Calomel is dangerous and people know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly safe and gives better resuits,' said a prominent local druggist. Dodson's Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by every druggist. A large bottle costs but a few cents, and if it fails to give easy relief in every case of liver sluggishness and constipation, you have only to ask for your money back.
 Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant tasting purely vegetable remedy, harm less to both children and adults. Take 6 spoonful at night and wake up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick headache. acid stomach or constipated bowels It doesn't gripe or cause inconvenience all the next day like violent calomel. Take a dose of calomel today and tomorrow you will feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't lose 6. day's-.4xork! Take Dod- sons Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full of vigor and ambition.

J, F. NewSom. agriculturist for the K. c. s.. and general booster of com mercial activities as well as agricul- tural. says that the reason so many commercial clubs and other like or gaAieations fail is that they do not have a definite object in view. They arc for everything, but without pro- gram. He has made a study of this subject and has had much experience in the work. There has been much discussion among .ne business and professional men of Ashdown in regard to forming an organization. The general need of such organization seems to be generally felt It might be well to begin to think of program, or rather some one big thing that shall be carried out and which shall con stitute the one big scheme of the or ganization. Other jobs could be taken on as the work developed, but there must be one big continuous program. That we may begin thinking along this line we are submitting the Neosho Plan, which has proven great suc- cess in that city It should have a careful reading. There may be other plans that may be worked out, but this will serve as an illustration of what town can do with q plan or policy bas- ed on right principles. The News is not asking that We accept or reject this particular plan. but if we are to succeed with an organization the point is that we must adopt some plan, know what We are striving for and head that way. AS matter of fact, we are an agricultural community. The further ance of agricultural enterprises on the farm and the encoura cement of those industries in the town that aid agri- cultural development and marketing would be the biggest thing around which we could build commercial organization.

The clean up campaign according to members of the Ashdown Improvement Club committee, who are cooperating with the city, has not been completed alt over the town in a satisfactory manner. They report that the wagon is still at work and will soon reach all refuse that has been placed where 1t can be reached Keep up the cam paign until the job is complete and then give it few finishing touches for duck. If we have failed to com piete the job before the Presbyterial we can at least round up the work be- fore the club convention.

Fire Sweeps East End Residence Sec.
 ton of City: Ten Blocks in Complete Ruins.

Batesville, April 21.--Fire which broke out shortly after 2 o'clock this afternoon in the residence section of Batesville destroyed at least 100 homes and caused loss estimated at approximately $500,O00. The homes destroyed included 50 residents of white persons, including some of the finest homo in the city, ana about 50 dwellings occupied by negroes. Sev- era negro church buildings also were destroyed.
 The fire ragged about three hours and famed by stiff wind from the southeast, covered an area of ten blocks.
 The blaze originated in the residence of H. Carpenter from the burning out of an electric fuse. Several children were in the house but they escaped. The building was in flames before the alarm was sounded. The fire soon be- gan spreading and before it could be checked a vast area had been covered.
 Arkansas College escaped damage, although fires ragged on all sides of the campus. The public school, also In the area destroyed, was not damaged. The Masonic Home. one of the largest institutions of the kind in the South YVES not in the devasted district

 As result of the fire more than 300 persons are homeless tonight. They are being housed in Batesville homes and hotels, and will not have to call upon other towns for assistance. Tho usands of dollars worth of household goods were destroyed. Practically no effort was made to carry furniture from the burning buildings.

 Flames Break Out Again.
 Just before the Newport Fire De- partment was ready to entrain for home, fire broke out in the business section of the city. but it was quickly extinguished by the visiting firemen. With the stiff wind blowing fire in the business district would have en- dangered the entire city.
 Although hundreds of persons aid ed in fighting the fire, some of whom took desperate chances, there were i no casualties.
 Telephone, telegraph and electric service was put out of commission temporarily. Repairs were made as quickly as possible, however, and all are working again tonight.
 An estimate of the amount of in surance carried by property owners in the burned district could not be obtained tonight. It was said that the loss was more than 50 per cent covered. Until representatives of in tion, however definite figures cannot be obtained !
 The burned area is being patroled tonight to prevent another outbreak and to guard the household goods that were carried into the streets.
