NOW 12 100 PER CENT COUNTIES
According to Director of Forward { Education Movement.

Little Rock, Sept. S,-Miss Alma Flu trail, superintendent of Lee county, and T. l.. Haynes, superintendent of Conway county, yesterday reported every teacher of. those counties en- rolled in the Arkansas Educational Association. This brings the total number of 100 per cent counties to 12, according to James J. Harrison, Di- rector of the Forward Education Movement.
 Miss Futrall, sister of President J, e. Futrall of the State University, is the second woman superintendent to enroll every teacher, Miss Lillie Bry- ant of Prairie county having reach ed the goal teh days ago. Every indication points to the en- rollment of every teacher in the state, said Mir. Harrison. While such an achievement would attract national attention, it's chief significance is in refecting the attitude of the teachers toward the task of lifting Arkansas from the 46th position in educational rank"

 AS the poults grow, lice will some times be present in harmful nufhbeEs and yet escape the notice of the per son who does not know where to look for them, If one looks in the hollows or creaseS on the upper side of the wing between the quills of the main wing feathers. they may find hiding places there literally swarmipg with lice. Grease applied to these places will prove effective in getting rid of the lice.
 Lice may also occur on other parts of the body and must be combated.
 If your young turkeys are droopy and unthrifty and you have examined them without finding any lice, do not UC lOo cuIC tliAl Iioilt dIC BIcSGuL til you have tried the following: Submerge the little turkey in warm water, holding it with just it's bill sticking out so that it can breathe, until the entire plumage is wet. Then remove it from the water and wrap in a light-cOlored cloth which has previously been warmed, and hold it in this manner for several min utes. Then take the cloth off. If there are no lice, on it, the turkey is free from them. and some other eX- planation than lice must be sought for its condition. Usually, however, a surprisingly large number of lice will be folnd on the cloth, even In cases where cursOry examination had con- vinced the owner that 1t was absolute ly free.

FLETCHER BELL WAS
 KILLED BY POSSE
Had Been Hiding in Little River Bot tom; Killed On Day Set For
 His Trial

Idabel, Sept 7,-"So sure as the wages of sin is measured in death, men through their transgression must pay" and Fletcher Bell paid the pen atty at the hands of sheriff's posse
 when they attempted to arrest him Tuesday morning at his hiding place in Little River bottom. He was shot Iby the posse and lived about three hours. He was brought to the county
 fail in this city where medical atten- ition was given him, but hel failed to rally and died about 1:30.
 Bell was charged with one of the most henious crimes ever committed in the county. He murdered two men lin a cabin near Cold Springs some time in June. He was arrested and placed in jail and about week ago he with three other prisoners sawed a bar from the jail door and made their escape, Bell pitched his tent in a thicket in Little River bottom and was huning and fishing for his liv- ling. He had been raised in Little River bottom and did not know any where else or how to escape. He was very ignorant and had no education at all. Thus has ended what would have been, perhaps, the first victim of our county for the electric chair had he besn tried in the court. His trial had. been set for Tuesday, the day he was killed by the sheriff's posse.

FEEDING PIGEONS IN WINTER
Failure to Provide Proper Kind and Quantity of Grain in Winter
 Causes Falling Of.

Neglect in feeding the right kind and amount of grain to pigeons in cold weather is often the cause of the marked falling off in the production of squabs in winter. More time and effort Is required to feed and manage pigeons at this time of the year, but the owner is well paid for the extra work.

When the flock is confined in laying houses the hens miss the opportunity afforded when they are on range to pick out likely spot and take dust bath. It Is just as important to hens well-being that she be able to take a dust bath when coOped up as we'll as when on range. Besides, it provides her with the sort of ammunition which nature intended she should use in com batting vermin and natural parasites. Hens that have ample facilities for dust baths will not be "carried off" by lice.
