 Little Rock, March 3.-(SpeciaD = Taxing wagons for road development is apparently the next step in legisla- .ion Senator McGraw of Lincoln has a bill pending in the Senate for this purpose When the bill was called Tuesday afternoon, 30 or 40 counties were exempted. Senator Caldwell then went to the rescue of Senator Me- Graw's bill declaring that the log wa- gon was greater menace to the high way than a tractor or truck.

PRINTING
A Key Industry

The printing industry is so interwoven with all other industries that it would be almost inn possible to conduct most of them without print ing. If the hundreds of forms that must be kept to produce proper record of the various kinds of business had to be written out in full how long would it take to record the transactions of day in large factory?
 An industry so necessary to business men should be regarded in the proper way-as an in- dustry to be fostered. When you must have job of printing in hurry you expect your printer to get it out for you. But do you think of the probability of it's costing mre to produce it in rush than if you gave him plenty of time? It does
 Watch your printing stock; do not let it be- come exhausted and then rush to your printer for figures" Give him plenty of time-and leave the job on open order.
 If you must have hurry-up job, we will produce it for you If you are wise you will let us price the job on our "cost-p s-proft" plan which means that we compile the cost of mater ials and labor enterng into the production of the job and add legitimate profit-just like you price your merchandise.

three and half hours for a soft boil

ways of preparing them for family
use:
Baked Bananas.
Ripe bananas quickly baked in their
skins until soft and seasoned with salt
and paprika, give a delicious, delicate

as vegetable If they are baked
without their skins, with the addition
of sugar, lemon juice and water, or
any of the tart fruit jellies, the dish
is changed to an excellent and easily
prepared dessert
Another very dainty banana dessert
is made BY lining a glass dish with
halved lady fingers and filling the cen
ter with alternate layers of the cake
and sliced bananas. Pour over a thick
boiled eustard, that has been chilled on
the ice and favored with lemon Orna-
ment the top with mounds of sweet

mound with a square of bright tinted
jelly.
A vanilla layer cake with thin slices
of bananas, mixed with boiled frost

found a pleasing variety Of the cake

another suggestion.

A "Food Fruit" Fact

HNHE banana is properly called the
food fruit, because of its high
: food value, and the story has
come to Northern scientists of men
who do hard manual labor in the trop-
les and live on a diet of six bananas
a day.
The old story that : can't cat ba-
nanas, because they give me indiges-
tion," is heard over and over again ;
and the main reason for this is that
housewives serve the fruit before it is
fully ripened. You would expect trou-
