SHIPPING BERRIES
HOratiO Country Have Shipped Many
 Cars of Strawberries.

Horatio, May 5.-Strawberry ship ments have reached the century mark in number of cars shiped from Horatio. The number shipped is 102 cars. In addition is to cars shipped from Win throp during the recent high water in Little River bottoms that were from Horatio territory. The DeQueen district has shipped 15 cars by ex- press, two by freight, total of IF.
 This is still known as the winter berry harvest" because of the very cold weather prevailing from the be- ginning to the end. There will pro- bably be no car load shipments after this week. It is wonderful the amount of cold weather a strawberry can stand. Twice during the harvest ice has been visible and several frosts from white to light, have visited the berry fields. Had there been no frosts it is probable that 200 cars would have been shipped from Horatio.

Pershing Would Revive
 World War Divisions

Washington May S.-That the his toric American divisions in the World war should be pe"petuated as the or ganization of re serves was proposei today by General Pershing, in ap- Iealing for pubic support of the forth coming series 0. military training camps as a recognition of the obliga- tion of the citizen to prepare himself to serve his country in time of war.
 General Pershing has been selected by the president to head the skeleton headquarters staff, organized to func~ ton instantly in time of war, and the general outlines for the first time his views of fundamental preparedness policies.
 From purely military standpoint cut policy said General Pershing, should provide first permanent mil itary establishment large enough to guard against sudden attack; second, a force sufficient to meet eur inter- national obligations, particularly on the American continent. Third, such force as may be necessary to meet our international requirements and so forth, a trained citizen reserve organ ized to meet the emergency of war.
 Veterans Form Nucleus.
 "In considering a reserve, we al ready have a nucelus ill our tralned units that have had experience in the war. 1 refer to the units of the Ma tional Guard as we'll as those of the so-called National Army. They have returned with traditions, history, pride of service, and high ideals of citizen ship, all of which together constitute a valuable asset in any organization. l should like to see those divisions held together, retaining their officers lnso- far as their records show them capa- ble of performing the duties of their respective grades. I would retain the organization of these divisions and ut ilize them as reserve divisions into which the young men would pass as "
 they come from the army or finish ill the training camps Thereby the tra- ditions and the spirit of those historic units would be kept alive to encourage and stimulate efficiency in those who fill their ranks in future.
 "In a reserve army it should be pointed out that there is great neces- sity for large number of thoroughly trained officers, not only for the com bat troops, but for the various staff corps and departments, including the general staff. These officers should be very carefully tested, and, depend- ing upon his qualifications, each should have a definite assignment to some particular unit or headquarters An especial effort should be made to re- tain in the reserve those officers, and men as we'll, who, during the war, per formed their duties efficiently"

REVIEW OF THE COTTON TRADE
tndertOne Is Steady and Prices Show
 Moderate Gains.

New Orlens, May S.-A very steady undertone was preserved in the cotton market last week and prices moderat- ely wide gains, advances coming about gradually because of the weight of hedge selling. The market got it's strength from the easier money situa- tion, reports of further small improve ment in business in this country, in- creased hopes of settlement of the British coal strike and a more favCr- able opinion of European political conditions. At the highest of the week prices were 50 to 62 points over the close of the preceding week with July up to 12.SS. In the net results the active months gained 25 to 52 spot department middling gained 63 points, closing at 113S. A year ago middling closed at 1925 cents pound
 The hedge trading of the week stood out as one of it's most prominent fea- lures. Over a good part of the belt but more especially in Texas, there was widespread movement to buy spots and sell futures against the pur- chase thus forcing speculative inter- ests to carry the cotton. This opera tion was effected under the most fav- orable conditions because of the pre- mium on contracts over spots and in many cases hedge sellers preferred the distant months instead of the near be- cause of the wider premiums on the distant months. This resulted in nar- rowing differences somewhat between months.
 The reduction of federal reserve rediscOunt rates over the country and in this district, where the rate was lowered from to per cent was regarded as development of the high est importance.
 The weather of the week was un- favorable in the main because of too low temperatures and there were many complaints of slow germination, poor growth of plants and of the necessity of replanting. At the end of the week temperatures were high CT.

The drive is on in this county this week to secure contracts for the new cotton marketing plan. New converts are being found every day. If several generations of grief under the old system would not convince the South ern farmer that there was a better way his case is hopeless. The truth is that they have long since been fed up on the old plan, but have never before seen anything as substitute other than a theoretical remedy mostly made of the same things that dreams are made of. This one has all the earmarks of sound business. At least it's contract has teeth in it and all who go into the contract will have to stand hitched.

PANAMA TOLLS TAKEN UP.
Rivers and Harbors Congress Re.
II viving Opposition.

The National Rivers and Harbors
Congress has issued a QUESTIONABLE
on Panama canal tolls. In explana-
tion of the blank the congress states:
'"The National Rivers and Harbors
Congress has always been in favor of
exempting vessels engaged in coast
wise trade from the payment of tolls
at the Panama canal. A strong CAM
paign was made in favor of this
principle when the Panama canal bill
was under consideration in 1912. and
the resolutions adopted by the con-
vention held in December of that year
said. We heartily congratulate and
commend the Sixty-second Congress
upon its grant of immunity through
the recently enacted Panama canal
law, from tolls upon ships engaged in
our coastwise trade
We also made "A vigorous campa ign
when the matter was reconsidered in
1913. but in this we were defeated and
the exemption was repealed. Since
that time all American ships. whether
engaged in coastwise or foreign trade
have paid the same tolls as foreign
ships for the use of the canal.
1T is understood that the matter
will again be taken up by Congress
probably at the extra session begin :
ming April II. 1t is possible that the
exemption will be carried farther than
before. for the national platform of
the party now in power contains the
following declaration: We recon-

In connection with the matter OF
wages, it may be stated that the
workers do not hold with the argu-
ment that If the cost of living Is
coming down then their wages should
come down. In the first place. they
insist that before the war the rail-
road employees on the whole were
underpaid. some Of them GROSSLY un. eho

ization of wages. 1t is their conten-
tion that a man who lives and works
i'm remote part of the country
should not be given the same wages
as a man who has to live and work
for instance. in New York or some
other metropolis where, they say, the
cost of living is much higher than
in the first place. The roads want to
be able to pay the men. so far as pos.
sible, just what they can get men for
in various parts of the country.
The railroad workers, on the other
hand. maintain that the cost Of liv.
ing in this country does not vary q
great deal where railroad shops are
located If there is variance in
costs, it matter little. they say. for
when the workers get a raise the
landlords and the merchants in the
various localities are not slow to
take advantage of 1t and prices go UP
accordingly.
One Of Arguments.
One of the main arguments ad-
vanced by the men for the stand
