P. +. Cleayer manager of the Con- way Cotton Oil & Gin Company, was elected president of the Conway Con-
 mcrcial Club for the ensuing year, at
 the meeting of the club held Tuesday
 night. Other officers elected were B.
 T. Deal, vice president, John E. Lyon,
 treasurer, and Tom Davis, Jo Frau
 enthal, Enc Hilliard, William R.
 James and J. Frank Jones, members
 of the executive committee. The se-
 lection of the club secretary was de-
 ferred until the December meeting, Secretary George F. Hartje continuing to serve in the interim.
 Three other matters of importance came before the club. MT. Cleaver reported results of the conference Tuesday at noon at Little Rock on the construction of a good road from Pa larm to North Little Rock, detailed account of which is given elsewhere in this issue of the Log Cabin Demo- crat. President B. W. Torreyson of the State Normal School presented the matter of participation in the pro- posed junket of legislators to agri- cultural schools in the north, the ex- pense of which is to be borne by coun ties sending their representatives and senators. When the proposal was first made, the club decided adversely, in view of his intention to bring both the senate and house of representa- tives here for an inspection of the State Normal. Upon more mature consideration, it was recommended by Mir. Torreyson and officers of the club that the junket be also endorsed. When put to motion, the club voted to send Senator George F. Hartje and Representatives. E. T. Herring on the trip at it's expense, amounting to about $250. Senator Hartje intends to make the trip with the legislators, but it was said that MT. Herring will not be able to get away.
 w. l.. Terry, president of the Terry Dairy Company, and walter Brown, president of the Brown & Oglesby feed stores, both of Little Rock, and County Agent T. M. Williams address ed the club on the subject of devel- opment of Faulkner county as a dairy center. MT. Terry's talk recounted some of the revenue derived by Car lisle, Hagen and other towns close to Little Rock, and which maintain dairy or milk stations. Carlisle dairymen drew from the Terry Company $92,- 900 within 10 months for dairy pro- ducts, MT. Terry said. Other towns have made records equally as good. He showed where the profit comes, and how the steady cash income will re- lleve any stringency caused by collapse of the cotton market He offered to furnish all equipment for a milk sta ton at Conway if those interested will supply a suitable building.
 MT Williams spoke on dairying as a community developer, saying that a dairying section boasted of good homes, churches and schools, con- tented people, fine live stock and all around prosperity. The county agent declared that a section having poor cattle usually showed poor in every thing else, and that nothing so aids community development as dairying. If the business should be taken up and backed by the business men of this county, Mir, Williams suggested that careful selection be made of men to conduct it, and that provision for the future also should be made by training young boys to become the 1airy farmers of the future. Great interest was manifested in all three of the talks, and dairy development left to be pushed by the new officers of the club
 The selection of Mir. Cleaver meets with the unanimous approval of club members and business men generally. Under his management, the oil mill and gin has been improved and devel- oped until it is a model plant, and the achievement has won for Mr. Cleaver a high place with citizens here Much is expected of the club under his pres idpncV durinp he pncIIiOcs 70 months
