Mississippi County, Ark.
Makes Cotton Record

Leachville, Ark. June 15.-An in
vestigation recently of three coun-
ties in the best cotton sections OF
the south reveals the fact that his
county. Mississippi, leads the world
in the production of cotton. The
three counties investigated were Ell
lis, Texas, Bolivar. Miss, and Missis-
sippi. Ark. 1t was found that the
following figures were the facts:
Ellis county had 357,874 acres, pro-
duced 7S,457 bales. made average
pound yield per acre of 1903 Boil
var county had $4,000 acres. pro-
duced $4,000 bales, made an aver
age pound yield per acre of 215.
Mississippi county had $4,000 acres,
produced 1900 bales, made an
average pound yield per acre of 3S7.
1t will be seen that the total yield
of both Ellis and Bolivar county is
63 pounds less than that of this
county. LeaChvilie is in the heart
of some of the finest farming land
in the world. Many acres produced
last year two bales Of cotton. The
boil weevil has not interfered. At
this time the cotton in the Leach
vile section is in finer shape than
anywhere in the state
A similar record to that made by
the cotton may also be made By the

contemplated, will pay this manu-
facturers' tax.
In 1921, there were manufactured
in the United States, 1,6S0.000 au-
tomobiles and trucks. 1t is esti-
mated that an output of 100000
automobiles and trucks would be a
fair average. At $500 a car, this
output would yield revenue of
$3O,O00,O0o year.
1t is proposed that the government
authorize bond issue of say $780,
100000 year for five years for
highway construction-the manufac-
turers' tax on every automobile and
truck sale to take care of the inter
est on the bonds and also to provide
a sinking fund. Another suggested
source of revenue is a sales tax on
all automobiles and truck tires and
castings. The amount of revenue to
be derived from this source has not
been computed.
OCIS Cos W Wi n IL Oul.
AS stated. the details of these
basic proposals are to be worked out
by Congress. They are offered as
suggestions for practical purposes.
The concrete advantage of this rails
ing revenue for highway construc-
ton, said Mr.. HARRISON, is that it
taxes once only. That is the tax is
paid once only when the purchase
of an automobile or truck is made
The chief objection to the action
thus far taken for highway CON
struo ton. is that it's benefits are ex-
tended only to main thoroughfares.
What the country needs most. says
Mr.. HARRISON, is national and
state policy that will improve lat
eral or tributary roads throughout
the country The producing and
consuming centers must be brought
closer together if there is to be mu-
tual profit and relief from prevail
ing high prices and Unequal ties.
The members of the House and
the Senate with whom Mr.. HARRISON
has discussed his proposals. are agreed
that he and the Travellers Protective
Association of America are on the
right track and has assured him of
their sympathetic thought In sew
eral instances actual co-operation
was promised in the event that his
suggestions shall be given a formal
or legislative status.
