STUDY STRAWBERRY
 BEFORE PLANTING

Little Rock, Feb. 5-Many farmers in Arkansas are Contemplating the planting of strawberries this year, but several items should be consid- cred before the farmer begins to grow this crop commercially, advises c. Woolsey, horticulturist of the agri- cultural extension division, University of Arkansas, .n u circular entitled Strawberry Culture" which will soon be ready for distribution by the extension division.
 Markets should be studied with a view to finding how and where to market strawberrie. when they are ready, points out MT. Woolsey, Furthermore, the harvest date and varieties of other producing sections should be studied so that as far as possible no competition in the markets will be encountered.
 "Do not plant more than you can properly harvest and market and do not plant too large an acreage, es- pecially if other regions are plant ing heavily" MT. Woolsey says
 Strawberries may be grown on any soil suitable for ordinary farm crops, but most varieties do better on light sandy or gravelly loans than on clay soils. New lands produce good yields because of the abundant supply of or ganic matter in the soil. Old soils us- ually cost a little more the first year but with proper fertilization and good cultivation should make good plants. A light sandy soil with a southern exposure will produce early fruit while heavy moist soil with a northern ex- posture will retard the early spring growth and produce later fruit. Low lands should never be planted to straw berries as they are more liable to frost injury than those in higher places which have good air drainage.
 Land to be planted to strawberries should be plowed in the fall if pos sible. If the soil is apt to wash, plant a cover crop or rye and blow it under 1 in the spring. Where the land is weedy it is advisable to plant cul- tivated crop preceding the season the 1 strawberry plants are set. Generally l speaking, if land in sod is used there is danger of the white grub. Pre- pare the land at least a week before planting and be sure it is compact and not loose. A plank drag with strips nailed to it to make the rows will l make good implement to use be- ! fore planting.

TAXON PERSONALITY FOR IMPROVEMENTS IS FAVORED BY HOUSE Senate Bill to Separate Elections
 Again Passes Almost
 Unanimously.

Little Rock, Feb. 5.-The house by an almost unanimous vote adopted the resolution introduced by MT. lobe of Hampstead proposing an amendment to the constitution providing for the assessment of personal property for purposes of local improvements. This IS measure which has the approval of the administration and there was practically no opposition to it except on the part of Mr. Dixon, who favored the supreme court amendment, and Mr. Parker who favored the resolution introduced by MT. Johnson which is similar to the lobe amendment except that it provides for an exemption of $500 1on household goods. The vote by which the resolution prevailed was 84 to 5. The negative votes were cast by Messers. Butler, Dixon, Duvall. Horowitz and Parker.
 The house judiciary committee does not look with favor on the bills intro duced by MT. Kelso and MT Johnson of Polk providing for the assessment of the death penalty on conviction of robbery. Both bills were returned yes terday with the recommendation that they do not pass.
 There are to be no more consolida- ted elections in Arkansas unless flu ture legislatures should reverse the action of the forty-third general assem- bly. The bill introduced in the senate by Senators Roddy and Bogle and passed by that body with only two votes againsst it, was passed by the house with only one vote in the nega- tive; that was cast by MT. Wells of Carroll county. The bill provides that hereafter the biennial state election sshall be held on the first Tuesday Those who spoke in favor of the pas sage of the bill including MT. Chaney of Woodruff, MT. Norfeet of St. Francis, MT. Wood of Lee, MT. Rob- bins of Hampstead and MT. Belote of Hot Spring said they were in favor of it because it would mean white su- premacy There were estimates of the cost of holding an additional election ranging all the way from $10,500 to $80,000 but the proponents of the measure argued that the question of cost should not enter into the propo- sition at all.

 LITTLE ROCK PAPER

Little Rock, Feb. 5.-The Rev James L. Delk, who was barred from holding evangelistic meetings at Lib- erty hall by Mayor Brickhouse, at the instigation of the Little Rock minis terial alliance, yesterday filed suit in the United States district court against the Arkansas Democrat, one of Little Rocks afternoon newspapers, asking $30,000 damages. The Rev. MT. Delk charges that he was dam aged by an article in the Democrat telling of the charges made against him by the ministerial alliance. The suit was filed in federal court be- bause the Rev. MT. Delk is not a res ident of Arkansas. He gave his res idence as Lincoln, Neb.

TO WELCOME DOGS
 CHAMPS ON COURT

Four consecutive victories over Ouachita and Henderson, Brown at Philadelphia stirred the Hendrix Col lege student body to a high pitch this morning and big reception will be rendered the Dogs when they re- turn to Conway this afternoon. The squad will be escorted by the students to the college and a jubilee held in the chapel. By trouncing the Tigers and Reddies in decisive fashion, the Hendrix five has established a clear claim to the state title in basketball The showing of the five is the more remarkable on account of the ab- sence of Coach Woody and the loss of his coaching at the start of the season.

Philadelphia, Feb. By superior playing in the second half Hendrix made it two straight from Henderson. Brown by winning last nights game 30 to 13. The local team led at the close of the first half, 6 to 1, but the Reddies weakened in the second period and made poor finish.
 Hendrix came back in great form after the rest and played beautiful ball. The Bulldogs showed excellent team work and played a fast and az gressive offensive game. The feature again last night was the playing of Thompson, the Hendrix center, who looks to be the best basketball cen- ter seen here in long time. Rush played the best game for the Reddies,
 After the game the players of the two teams were entertained by the home economies department of Hen- derson-Brown. Coffee, cake and sand wiches were served the athletes.
