Anti=Beer Bill Was Talked
 To Death in the House

Washington, Aug. 24. - Congress tossed the Campbell-Willis anti-beel bill into the legislative scrap hear tonight and voted itself months re- cess beginning at midnight. + After days of stormy filibustering the "drys' threw up the sponge and abandoned their effort to force a final vote on the anti-beer bill. Efforts of prohibition leaders to lure the "wets" into an agreement to vote on a fixed date when Congress reconvenes in September were unavail-
 ing. After Congress returns to it's duties on September 21 it is expected
 that the tax and tariff bills, the rail
 road funding bill, and the bill to re-
 fund the foreign debt, will have the right of way and no one would hazard
 a prediction when the anti-beer bill could be brought up again
 In the closing hours of the session the $4S,5OO0OO Shipping Board defi- ciency bill and the billion dollar farm export credit bill were enacted into law. President Harding arrived at the capitol shortly before midnight and signed these two measures in the presidents room off the Senate cham Der.
 House InSures BiiPS Defeat.
 Defeat of the anti-beer bill was rem dered certain when the House, by a vote of 146 to 129, concurred in the Senate recess resolution. The resolu- tion, which was passed by the Senate several days ago, left Congress with no choice but to quit at midnight. As a result the "wets" were able to talk the anti-beer bill to death,
 The Senate factions rushed emisar- ies to the House when the recess res olution was taken up. Senator Lodge, Republican leader, Senator Watson of Indiana and Senator Moses of New all took up posts on the House floor and used their efforts to hurry favorable action on the resolu- tion. Senator Jones of Washington and Senator Lenrootof Wisconsin were present in thd House on behalf of the Senate "dry" in an effort to forestall action on the resolution.
 When the previous question" was put to rising vote, the House indi- cated it's overwhelming sentiment for a recess by a vote of 217 to 55. A mo- ment later, when a record vote was demanded and members were forced to answer to the roll call, the tally show ed 146 to 129.

100 BALES ON 600 ACRES
First Bale of Cotton Sold at TeXar-
 kama for 15 Cents.

Texarkana, Aug. 24.-The first bale of the 1921 cotton crop was sold on the streets of Texarkana yesterday after noon to Webster Brothers & Company, loca' cotton buyers. This company was the highest bidder of several firms represented in the deal, The bale weighed 460 pounds and was classed as strict middling of inche and sixteen tn staple. This netted the grower a return of $69.2O, based on price of F cents. In addition, through the Chamber of Commerce, eight or ten local business houses contributed a nice sum as bonus to the grower. Luther M. Day of Bowie county
 The Day plantation, with 600 acres in cotton, is 12 miles northwest of Texarkana, and the first bale was picked from 12 acres of this crop. MT. Day believes that he will gather ap- prox;mately 100 bales this season.
 In commenting of conditions on his plantation MT. Day stated that the boil weevils are very destructive and that none of tho recent squares can possi- biy make anything as they are pune tured as soon as formed. Due to the extreme warm weather, cotton is open ing very rapidly. Mir. Days opinion is that, with continued good weather cotton will all be picked this year during September and October.

 "The Arkansas Farm Bureau is now preparing, under MT. Sapiro's direc- tion, commodity contracts for all truck and fruit crops, A number of local associations have already been formed. The plan for central sell ing agency is being worked out.
 "The Arkansas Farm Bureau since April 1st, has added 21 counties to the original nine organized.
 In addition to the above, in a gen. eral way, the Arkansas Farm Bureau has carried to the farmers of the state
 message of hope and cheer, based on a broader education, business endea- vor, and organized effort It has made no appeal to ignorance, prejudice, or passion.
 This, in brief, is what has been ac- complisheh thus far. It has been done during the period of the greatest financial depression in the history of agriculture This condition, added much to the burden and greatly re- tarded progress.
 Now the labor of the organization committee is ended. The Arkansas Farm Bureau Federation takes it's place. The Federation, with strong official body and an enthusiastic, pro- gressive membership, may be expected to carry to completion the present program and project new lines of en- deavor that will add greatly to the welfare of the farm people and to the progress of Arkansas as a whole"

A whole lot of people are not going to be surprised if Hale No comes in a producer. They have felt that way all along, and nothing has happened since the well was started to cause them to change their opinion. Even if this first showing fails to produce the goods in sufficient quantities it will be looked upon as the first notice of the real thing further on.

Vote for Trees

A national tree for America is to
be chosen and votes for trees are
now in order. You do not have to
be twenty-one years old 10 cast
your vote. Men, women, boy 8
and girls of every color and ra e
may vote. School children are es-
pecially urged to vote The pref
erences will be announced by
states.
So far the black walnut tree
seems to be slightly in the lead.
The elm, the hickory, the ash and
the maple are not far behind.
All tree votes should be plainly
written and sent to the Tree Voting
Department, American Forestry
Association, Washington, D. G.
We hope all the pupils in our
schools will send in their votes with
their reasons for their preference.

nourishing and appetizing dish. In

pound of bacon cut into cubes, three
large or twelve small onions, sliced
When hot, add a rabbit that has
been skinned and cut into pieces.
Turn the meat and onions on all
sides until they are a golden brown.
This takes about three-quarters of
an hour. Then sprinkle the pieces
of rabbit with -four, add salt, pep

and little boiling water. Allow
the whole to simmer over slow

Spaghetti with Sausage

Spaghetti with sausage tastes
good in cold weather. Run half
pound of beef and small onion
through the meat chopper; then
mix with this a half-pound of saus-
age. Have three cupfuls of cooked
spaghetti ready and put the spa
ghetti and the meat in alternate
layers in buttered baking dish.
Pour over the mixture a cupful of
tomato juice; cover with buttered
crumbs; and bake until brown.
This is very good with the sausage
alone, emitting the beef.

To Keep Meat

If you want to keep meat over q

thoroughly cured, we'll smoked, and
dried on the surface. After smok-

done the package should be left in
