Carload of Jerseys
 for Local Bank

The First National Bank of this city has purchased from the Third District Agricultural School at Magnolia twenty-one Jersey COWS and heifers. These cattle are all registered and have been tested and known not to be tu- bercular. The shipment is expected to arrive toady The school had accumu- lated more cattle than the farm was capable of supporting. Practically the entire herd is composed of heifers, not fat, but in healthy condition and with breeding.
 The bank is interested in develop ing throughout it's territory the pro duction of cream. The Jersey does not necessarily give more milk, or pos sibly not so much as do the Holsteins, but are richer in the production of but ter-fats, and this breed is said by au- thorities to be the best for those sell ing cream or butter. The bank expects to sell these Jerseys, through this sec tion. Many of them have already been disposed of. Among those who are taking some of these young cows are: A. l.. Fomby, c. H. Hatcher and J. E. Davis. The best authorities state that the Jersey thrives better on native point in their favor

 Is Warned.

London, Feb. 7.-After conversation between the British and French gov- ernments, it was agreed, in terms proposed by the French, to reject the Turkish demand that the allied war ships leave Smyrna.

 A Reuters Constantinople dispatch says that a second note has been re- ceived from the Turkish commander at Smyrna reducing the time limit for the allied warships to quit Smyrna from midnight tonight to sunset.
 The allied commissioners after a conference are declared to have ad- dressed strong note to the Kemalist representative at Constantinople, warning him that all responsibility for any act of hostility would devolve upon the Kemalist government Sim liar warnings have been issued to To- cal officials at Smyrna.

ANOTHER ISTHMIAN
 CANAL CONSIDERED
Handling and Cabinet Favor Providing for Additional Waterway-T Traffic
 Shows Increase.

Washington, Feb. G. President Harding's administration favors appli- cation of the profits accruing from op- eratlon of the Panama canal to the construction of new inter-oceanic waterway, it was said today by White House spokesman. The question was discussed by the cabinet, and although no definite project has been outlined, the cabinet talk was described as tex tremely interesting"
 Impetus was given to the discussion by Secretary Weeks explanation of the striking increase in traffic through the canal last month, when the records show 50 per cent greater movement than a year ago. Canal tolls collec- tions have mounted, the cabinet was told, until there is steadily increas- ing monthly balance above cost of operation. Presumably it was this fact which brought out the administration's desire that canal prof go toward con- struction of a new canal.
 The outstanding feature as to the increasing canal traffic, it was said, was the growth of intcr-coastal busi- ness. Administration officials have seen concrete evidence recently of pro- bable further growth of this business Within the last few days Secretary Weeks has been approached by inter ests seeking to buy two army trans ports for conversion into refrigerator ships to carry Pacific coast fruits to Eastern markets. He was told that it has not been possible to obtain a suf- ficient number of suitable vessels from the Shipping Board.

The executive committee, Headed by Gov. McRae, has received letters from a number of heads of other institutions wishing the movement success. Dr. J. c. Futrall president of the University of Arkansas, writes that "I am glad to see this good work going on. At the present time the entire system of edu- cation is in a very unsatisfactory con- dition. Not only are the public schools poorly supported but there is not single institution of higher edu- cation in the state which has the pro- per financial resources or educational facilities to enable it to do the best work. t1ust you will succeed in col lccting the amount desired."
 A force of men who are conducting the campaign will visit every Presby- terian community in Arkansas to pre- sent this church cause. The general office has been established in tho Urqu- hart building in Little Rock.
