few days ago discharged the en-
tire panel of 100 jurors
The situation directs attention
to the mistaken conception that
some men hold in regard to jury
service. Though sworn to find ?
verdict in accordance with the
law and the evidence, they feel
that they are entitled to consult
their personal wishes as to wheth
er the defendant should go free.
This feeling becomes predomin-
ant when the law which the de-
PENDANT is accused of violating IS
unpopular. Ignoring the evidence
and acquitting the guilty in such
cases is demoralizing; it paves
the way for similar action in
cases involving other laws. This
oath taken by the jurors is held
Tightly, the courts are brought
into contempt, and public morals
suffer.
The remedy lies in educating
Jurors to hold their oaths as a
sacred promise, not to be sci
aside by personal predictions
If they object to law, they are
at liberty to try to have it re

Nobody has ever declared it dead.

The Hardest Job im Every Business

I'm nearly every line production has been
increased on account of the war. The
4 hardest Job ahead is to find market in
peace times for what those factories turn out.
Money is made-not in manufacturing
in selling. Yet selling seldom receives the
attention it deserves.
The number of factories manufacturer can
build-the profit he can earn-are limited by
the amount of merchandise for which he can
find profitable market
Ifdemand can be kept ahead of production, a
profitable market is sure. And the one way to
keep demand ahead of production iSby adver-
Using teaching the public to use more OF
your goods.
In the past the South has bent her energies on
manufacturing. The marketing of her prod
ucts were largely left to others who took the
raw materials and staples and converted
them into specialties, trade-marked, adver-
tised and sold them And, invariably, it is the
sellingof Specialties that pays the wide margin
of profit and the selling of staples that pays
the slim.
Greater profits - Keeping conditions in our
hands instead of on them-depend upon our
marketing our goods as we'll as upon our max
ing them.
The South's cotton goods should be known by
brand-names in Detroit just as we know and
buy the various makes of automobiles pro-
duced by the citizens of that enterprising
Michigan city.
Lumber, of which the South is the Nations
greatest possessor, will be needed for recon-
struction and the merits of our various woods
should be convincingly told by advertising.
The South is the greatest fat-producing sec
ton of America. In the vegetable oils from
her cotton-seed, peanuts and soy beans she
produces more fat than all the dairy COWS of
America-more fat than all the hogs Slaught-
cred in year. More Southern-made and
marketed compound lards and salad oils
would bring additional millions into Dixie.

Cane svrups, coffees and ali the other cpl
curean delights for which the South is famed
would find bigger demand if backed by ade-
quate advertising. And such demand would
automatically fix profitable price.
Marketing our products as we'll as making
them would furnish work for the hands and
brains of our returning sons provide room
for the tallest ambition and stop the emigra-
ton to the North and West Of the talented
and ambitious.
There was a time when we could sell the
merchant and let him push the goods. But to-
day the>hardWare, grocery and drug stores
will carry from 2, OOoto 10000 different ltemss
Pushing any one is impossible.
Wise manufacturers are marking their goods
so that they can be recognized = telling the
public about their merits and inducing the
folks to pull them off of the shelves. And IN
this respect, at least, an ounce OF pull" IS
worth pound OF push"
The advertising agencies of the South have
had years of experience IN advertising and
marketing many commodities. They know
the methods that have proved successful, be-
cause their whole time is engrosSed with the
problems of selling.
Their contact with leading manufacturers in
many lines has made them intimate with
various methods of winning trade methods
of securing distribution = fighting subStitu-
ton. It is their business to know how busi-
ness is being built.
Their services cost nothing. They are paid
commission by the publishers to make adver-
Using profitable to the manufacturer. It will
be revelation to many business men to know
the varied forms of assistance these agencies
can der-information on markets, con-
tanners, trademark law, distribution methods,
dealer cooperation, service in preparing
booklets, copy-writing and real information
on the value Of different classes Of advertising

OIL FIELDS OFFER PUZZLE
 TO TAX COMMISSION

The Arkansas Tax Commission and the county assessors have one of the most serious problems for solution which has been presented for some time. A member of the commission will this week visit the ElDorado oil field to confer with the tax officials. No policy has yet been agreed upon as to the manner of assessing oil properties. Producing wells may be averaged and an equitable assessment arrived at, but the difficultie are en- countered in the assessment of leases and improved areas. Such lands are held by the owners at very high fig ures, but these figures are for trade purposes and not for the assessors. Lands held at 5000 per acre specu- lative value, with an actual surface value of possibly not more than $10, could hardly be assessed at the 5096 basis or $500 an acre. This is the puzzle that must be solved.

 Hearing-DecisiOn on Case is Expected to be Delivered Soon

Chicago, June 9.-The second wage reduction hearing before the United States labor board, in which more than 150 railroads asked wage cuts, wound up in rhetorical love feast today, with representatives of both railroads and employees expressing a desire for peace and amity in the rail road industries.
 Let us pull the country out of the situation it faces today" urged F. w.. Sargent, counsel for the Chicago & Northwestern.
 "We are anxious to settle contro- versies for the benefit of all. We have faith in this board. So far as this road is concerned, it will obey every decision of the board, even if it takes us into the hands of the receiver"
 MT. Sargent plead for a more len tent stand on the eight-hour day, de- claring that mo living man had ever made success of life on eight hours day." Unusual situations demand ed harder and longer work, he said.
 Heads of the Big Four brother hoods expressed their appreciation of the spirit of cooperation shown by MT. Sargent and other rail represen- tatives and the case was concluded with the exception of dispute over the right of the Pullman Company to appear in the hearing. Chairman Barton announced that the board would consider the Pullman applica- tion further tomorrow.
 A lengthy argument over applica- tion of the boards decision of April II regarding abrogation of the so- called national agreements marked the morning session. The board was asked to place an interpretation on the decision and members of the board said the decision did not order the rules abrogated but left it to the two parties to continue the old rules or devise new agreements.
 In the wage hearing, which ended today. both sides mainly reiterated testimony offered in the hearing last month. A decision of the case was expected soon.

 Little Rock, June 10.-Late vester- day afternoon, Governor McRae took his first step in the Third District Agrlcultural School wrangle. He an- nounced the appointment of R H McLendon, a farmer of Atlanta Co- lumbla county, as a member of the board of trustees, to succeed R. & Warnock of Magnolia. MT. Warnock who has served in the legislature and the constitutional convention. was appointed on the board by Governor Hays Tn 1913. It is claimed that he has never taken the oath of office and that he is not therefore a member of the board The attorney general ruled that the fact that his oath of office is not on file with the secretary of state is prima facie evidence that he had never qualified Mir. Warnocl; has stated that he proposes to con- tend for what he considers to be his rights in the premises. There are three other appointments which the governor may announce soon.

45O CARS WILL
 BE SHIPPED
l.. H. Thomas, Produce Broker, Will Handle Probably 450 Cars of Various Kinds of Fruit and Truck in This Section.

Few people realize to what extent L. H. Thomas, fruit and vegetable jobber, is going into the truck ship ping game in this section until the fact is brought to their attention that MT. Thomas will handle probably 450 car loads of the following fruits and vegetables this season: Tomatoes, cantaloupes, sweet corn, watermelons. blackberries, beans and cucumbers, which are shipped to eastern and northern markets.
 This is Mr. Thomas third year in the truck jobbing business here and each year he has doubled and trebled his shipments until it has reached the present proportions which will be en- larged next year. MT. Thomas has acreage around Prescott, Gurdon, Hope, Dunlap, Blevins, Arcadia, Shady Grove and Deanyville, and his headquarters are in Prescott, his of flee being located at George Christo- pher's store.
 The shipment of beans was begun week ago and are being shipped from Dunlap and Arcadia averaging about 50 crates per day, which will increase as the crop natures Toma- toes, of which there is very heavy acreage, will begin to move about the middle or latter part of next week, and extra preparations are being made by MT. Thomas to take care of these shipments, many of which wifi ! be handled from the shipping points by the Prescott & Northwestern Rail road and will be transferred to the Missouri Pacific railroad here for dis tribution to their destination.
 The opening up of the truck busi- ness in this section will mean new era in the prosperity of the country because of the fact that good mar ket is always available for fruit and vegetables, although cotton may be sold at loss. Another feature of | the truck business here is that the growers are paid by check for their products immediately upon unloading at the shipping station. There is no anxious, watchful waiting for the re- turns before one knows what price is to be received. The food crops are | the hest farminp bets and the farm CTS are coming to realize this more each year as the cotton market goes down. When every farmer in Nevada county begins to raise truck at leader and cotton as side line, then and not until then will he get on the road to independence.
