Local Bills Have Caused a
 Mess All Over the State

Little Rock, Aug. 23.-(SpeciaH -- i Local bills have got the people of
 Arkansas in a bad mess" says c. P. Newton, secretary to Governor Me Rae. eff we will pass 9 constitutional
 amendment rendering it impossible for such subsequent legislatures to fcol with local bills at all, they will
 get down to business and pass con- structive general bills to take care of every local need. There is a general
 law which gives the people of a com
 munity the right to form fencing dis
 tricts. We have; the Alexander law
 which gives the people the right to
 form their own road improvement dis tricts, but legislatures have been ig-
 noring the existence of such general statutei and have gone right on intro
 ducing and passing local road im-
 provement district acts, whereby the people are imposed upon and outraged. It is the same all down the line, for lllc SpGCldl act IS lue SpeCldl WedpOil
 of special interests This fact should be known by every man, women and
 child in Arkansas.
 .There has been statute since 1907 providing means for the formation
 of fencing districts and yet the legis lature has gone right along passing local fencing district bills. Why have the legislatures done this? Having served four sessions in the general as- sembly, and having consistently re- fused to introduce local bills of any
 kind but having witnessed the intro
 duction of thousands of useless local
 bills I am prepared to answer my own question and say to your readers that 1 the reason legislatures have gone right along passing unnecessary local bills,
 in the face of the existence of statutes that put the power in the hands of the people themselves, is because mem bers of our legislatures resort to the local bill to override the wishes of the people they represent. This is not al
 ways the reason, but it is the usual
 reason.

State Will Have Fair at the
 Capitol City in November

Little Rock, Aug. 22.-Arrangements were completed last night for holding the Arkansas state fair in the city park, for two weeks, exclusive of Sun days, from November to 19. The date was advanced in order that the fair might be in progress at the time of the annual meeting of the Arkan- sas Teachers Association, which will meet November 11-13, and which brings approximately 5000 visitors to Little Rock. It was thought that the state fair would offer an unusual op- portunity to the teachers of the state along recreational and instructive lines.
 John s. Berger, inaugurator and pro. 1note1 of the Dallas and Houston (Texas) fairs was elected general manager of the Arkansas state fair ard will at once launch statewide campaign to interest every group of citizens in the project.

Joe Smith was in the bcA for Richmond and the Texans had trouble in solving his delivery. Rich plond had a hitting bunch. Cobb and Phillips joined in the hitting spree and bingled out safeties almost as of ten as they went to bat. Some loose fielding in the second inning account ed for three of New Boston's scores. The score was Richmond 10. New Bos- ton 5.

Corn Chowder Is an Excellent Way in
 Which to Utilize 6kim Milk.

milk is very satisfactory, although it lacks the valuable food constituent, butterfat. There is left, however, in the skim milk, not only all of the sugar, which amounts to about AZ parts in every 1OO and most of the mineral substances, but also most of the proteins. The last-named class of substances are important, because, be- sides supplying muscle and tissue building material they also serve as fuel for the body, as fats, sugars and starches do.
 Rich in Protein.
 Since the nutritive part of skim milk consists very largely of protein, it Is to be classed with such food materials as eggs, meat, fish, poultry and cheese (though it is more delicate than those foods), rather than with such sub- stances as sugar, which serve only as fuel. Two and half quarts of skim milk contain almost as much protein and yield about the same amount of energy as pound of round of beef.
 Whole, unskimmed milk has, of course, a more pleasing taste to many people, and those who do not need to consider the additional cost will no doubt always prefer it. Children

should always be given whole milk. When used for cooking, however, the difference in taste between skinned and unskimmed milk is not so percep- tible, and there are many uses to which skim milk can be put in the preparation of foods. In the making of cereal muShes, for instance. the use of skim milk in place of water adds greatly to the nutritive value, particu- larly by raising the amount of tissue forming materials. In making milk soups, chowders, custards, and cakes also, it can be proftably used.
 Corn chowder.
 1 can of corn, or pint of fresh corn
 grated.
 { cupfuls of potatoes. cut into small
 pieces.
 2 ounces salt pork.
 small onion, chopped.
 cupfuls of skim milk.
 teaspoonful salt.
 ounces crackers
 Cut the pork into small pieces and fry it with the onion until both are a delicate brown. Add the potatoes and
 
 the vegetables are soft. Add the milk and salt and reheat. It Is we'll to al- low the crackers to soak in the milk while the potatoes and corn are being cooked. Some people cook the cobs from which the corn has been removed. in water, and later use this water for cooking the potatoes and corn.
 curd Cup Cakes. 1 cupful dry curd. 4 eggs.
 \ cupful sugar.
 h teasponful salt
 Beat the yolks of the eggs thorough ly; add the sugar and the curd (which must be very dry), and beat until the mixture is smooth. Combine this mix ture by cutting and folding with the stiffly beaten whites of the eggs. Bake for 20 minutes in moderate oven, in which the heat is greater at the bot tom. Use unbuttered gem tins. This amount should make about thirty cakes.
 In order to prepare the curd, take two and one-half or three quarts of sour skim milk; heat to the boiling point and strain; when no more liquid runs off, press the curd between cloths or dry it in a warming oven. If the curd from the quantity of milk given amounts to more than cupful it is too wet.
 If 8 very sweet cake Is liked, as Is the case in parts of South America, where these cheese cakes are well known, two cupfuls of sugar may be used with two cupfuls of the cottage cheese and four eggs.
 It should be remembered that skim milk does not contain so much nutri- ment as whole milk It's greatest function is to give added food value at low cost when used in cookery to replace water, and is means of utiliz- ing the skim milk which contains much good food.
