NEW TELEPHONE DIRECTORY
 FOR ASHDOWN

A new telephone directory for Ash down has just been issued and circu- lated according to Manager, s. M. Wimberly.
 MT. Wimberly stated today that this is the largest and best telephone di- rectory ever published for Ashdown and he feels very proud of it.
 He stated that he expects the new book to be a great help to the opera tors in giving good service and asks that telephone users cooperate with them by-calling by Number as is done in the larger cities.
 The Ashdown Exchange has grown to such proportions that Operators cannot easily remember the telephone numbers of all subscribers and when calls are placed by name instead Of number, there is very likely to be some delay while the Operator is ob- taining the telephone number. MT. Wimberly is very anxious to give the very best service and asks his patrons hereafter to use the direc tory and place calls by number. 2t

B. Hudspeth, of the Arkansas side, is being strong " backed by the Arkansas State Re- publican Committee, while on the Texas side Thomas Daily has the solid support of the Texas State Commit tee.

Freight experts are checking up on the rate on the Arkansas melon crop It is said, and last season proves it, that the rate is prohibitiye, and that if it is not reduced there will farmers are loyal enough to the rail- roads to go to the expense and labor of making crop and then paying out the whole proceeds on freight If you get enough to pay the freight and a profit, then the consumer will not be able to pay the price. The way to get action on this freight business is to keep hammering until it is done, and that before next spring.

The News believes that if every farm home in the county was screen- ed the returns in health would more than pay for the improvement in one year. Keep the water supply pure and the flies and mosquitoes away and the larger percentage of sickness will be prevented. It will pay you from a money standpoint alone. The homes in this country protected by screens are the exception, especially in the rural districts. It ought not to be so.
