COMMITTEE SOON
 TO CALL PRIMARY

Within the next few days Chairman J. H. Bailey and Secretary V. D. Hill of the City Democratic Central Con- mittee are expected to call meeting of the committee for the purpose of arranging the biennial primary elect ion for municipal officers of Conway, Two years ago the primary election was held on March 9. Nominations are required to be certified 15 days prior to the date of the general cleo tion, which will be on the first Tues day in April, and the primary cannot be delayed much beyond the middle of March.
 So far little interest has been manifested in municipal politics. It is understood that Mayor w. D. Cole will accept reelection and so far no opposition to him has developed. As the choice of a marshal now lies with the council rather than the voters, there will be no contest in the primary for that position. So far as known, none of the six aldermen now serving have declared whether or not they will. seek reelection.

they can market as easy as if they we're on the special route. With such a business we could afford to employ a special agent to work for the direct interest of the people in the market ing of this cream.
 A success in the marketing of cream would not only mean steady income every day, but it would put new action in the farmers toward CO., operative selling of other farm pro- ducts. There are thousands of dol lars of farm products going to waste every year on account of no market So let us cooperate together, receiv- ing more for our farm products. Let the receiver pay less and at the same time both come out better.

SCHOOL BOY ARGUES FOR CREAMERY.

 With the approaching completion ot hard surfaced road the opportunity for a cooperative creamery has pre- sented itself. The first step is for the farmers to get together and or ganize with the determination to put the thing over. The word go and the right spirit are the only things that stand between Vilonia and a cooper atives creamery. The town has al- most every other advantage that is needed. s&{ ##f* r.
 The patronage and the high type of dairy cattle that we already pos sess would keep up public cream separator and the employees that are required to run the business. The first thing after we have organized IS to select center to place a sep- arator that is convenient for all.

ARKANSAS HISTORY
 MARS COMPLETION

Little Rock, Feb. 16.-Dallas T. Herndon, state historian, is complet- ing the manuscript for the most con- prehensive history of Arkansas ever compiled. He has gone thoroughly in to original sources for his material and every statement has been care fully verified. The work is the re- sult of many years of research. It will be published in three or more large royal octave volumes. There will appear in it vast store of in formation which is not available any where else save in obscure, newspaper files and pamphlets or other publi- cations that have long been out of print. The first volume alone will cover more than 1000 pages. Every phase of the states history from the earliest dates of Spanish exploration down to the present day will be thor oughly covered. Tn his foreword, Mr. Herndon says: "
 The swamp lands, once so unsight- fy, have been. reclaimed, protected by sevees and converted into productive farms, the mineral deposits of the mountain region have been exploited; !; great. sawmills have given great con- Eercial value to the forests; railroads have, been built to connect Arkansas with the outside world; hundreds of thousands of dollars have been ex- pended by the state in the construc- ticn of modern highways; and the log cabin of Arkansas Traveller" notori- ,ety, with it's leaky roof and unkept surroundings is thing of the past.
 3, The geographical position of Ar kansas is ideal. Centrally located in the southern Mississippi valley, it is neither up north nod down south '@haelo east nor out west Here the southern planter may find opportuni- 'fyafo cultivate his cotton, cane and xsce; the northerner, his wheat, corn. eats and clover; the westerner his al falfa. and the easterned his tobacco and fruits. To set forth the geogra- phfcaf and cliamtic advantages of the state; to correct the mistaken notion that Arkansas is far behind the oth- er states of the union . in intellectual md material progress; to present in graphic and authentic narrative form sAe story of the. states development along all fines, are the objects of this Prsnosed7 history" fd 6al'.rr

i Meat that is prepared especially
to serve cold in thin slices of uni

nomical than using up the ragged
remains Of a roast rs a cold cut.
1t is wiser TO buy small roasts, il
one must have this hot meat in the
summer time; but for cold mca. S
use the cheaper cuts OF beef, lamb
or veal. The. piece of beef called
"chuck," the shoulder of lamb or ii
shin of veal can ill be rendered
delicate and appetizing by the
proper treatment.
Take any one OF the cuts / nave
mentioned, trim off fat and bits of
thick skin, place in kettle that
fits it snugly and just cover with
boiling water. Boil for hours very
slowly until there Is not more than
half cupful of gravy left in the
pot. By this time the fibers have
soosened and the gravy has been
absorbed back into the meat. Take
from the fire and, when cool enough

dough is thoroughly chilled it takes
very little flour to roll them out and
they are less apt to stick to the

more tender when it doesn't take up

There is, of course, less opportunity
for variety in one batch of plain
