HIS CANTALOUPES WILL BE HURRIED

During his recent visit to Southern Arkansas, H. M Cottrell, agricultur ist of the Arkansas Profitable Farm ing Bureau of the Little Rock Board of Commerce, was much interested in plans of Bert Johnson, the Arkansas peach king" to force his cantaloupes to maturity so that they will be ready for marketing much earlier than oth- CT Arkansas grown cantaloupes. Mir. Johnson plans to have 450 acres in cantaloupes on his farm at Highland, Pike county. After the cantaloupes of the Imperial Valley of California are marketed there is time when the whole country is without canta- loupes and it is in this period that MT. Johnson plans to have his canta- loupes on the market.
 "He is giving his land special work now to warm it up," said MT. Cot trell "He is opening up furrows and SuDSOlliilS tllSIl III lliC NtiCCI VI IilC rows where the hills will be planted. He will put barnyard manure into these furrows and will work the soil over it in order to further warm the land He will put full shovelful of barnyard manure under each hill and will use a commercial fertilizer heav- fly to force early ripening.
 "A wire wicket will be placed over each hill as soon as the seed is plant ed and the wicket will be covered with a weatherproof transparent paper The paper is similar in appearance to the transparent slip used in en- velopes through which the address on the letter can be read This paper will let the sunlight through to the plants and will keep out the cold rains winds and frost.
 ''The soil will be given intensive cultivation of a kind that will warm it to the greatest extent. When the weather becomes permanently warm a hole will be cut in the paper cover ing each hill and the plants will be gradually hardened until the paper can be removed. .'-Arkansa Gazette.

PRO-LEAGUE REPUBLICANS

That the idea of an international association for peace which would in clude the United States, is still a burning issue. regardless of the at tempts to show that it has quietly passed from our thoughts, is evi- denced by the appeal made to Presi- dent-elect Harding by some leading members of the Republican party. Senator Lodge already has sung a requiem over the dead body of the league, but there are other members of the party than the senator, and these other leaders have voiced their views in this indirectly direct appeal to the new president himself:
 His own peace and satisfaction of mind his contribution to the we'll being of his people, the greatness of his country as world leader and the welfare of the human race, aas well as the determination of his own place in history, all depend upon his sue cess in leading the United States of America into league or association of nations that will not be failure, but glorious success in the reallza- tion of the highest and dearest hope of all the civilized peoples of the earth. that the insufferable burden of the maintenance of great armies and navies shall be lifted from the backs of men and that there shall come the day when, in any respect approaching the magnitude in which this genera tion has suffered it, there shall be no more war.
 The new president himself is pledged by platform and his own nron,ises to secure an association of nations" for peace, but there has been much clamor of late from selfish ln- terests who are more concerned about tariff than they are about world peace. It is well, therefore, that the new administration be not permitted to wander away from its own engage ments. The fact that the president is being reminded of his duties by members of his own party ought at least to prevent the issue from beng deliberately obscured.-Memphis Com mercial Appeal.
