In the past people in Ashdown ex- pressed a desire for suitable loca- ton for parkway. When the loCa- ti0n appeared available the money was lacking. Now there is a location for a parkway in Ashdown, and it is just where it ought to be. Maybe nobody has thought of it in that connection The K. c. s. right of way lying between Front Street and the railway tracks could be filled in and underdrained by satisfactory agreement with that com pany and the city Separate the ground from the street proper by concrete curb and develope parkway the en- tire length of the street. How does that idea strike you? It is something to think and plan for. It would not only be a satisfaction from a beauty standpoint to the residents, but q splendid advertisement for the town. This is our front door. The idea is full Cf possibilities

Indian Emerald Mines Located.

The Conquistadores, when they seized the rich emerald mines of O. lOmbia, forcing the native Indians to work them. suspected the existence of other mines. After a search of three years in Colombia, Christopher Dixon, engineer for the Colombian En- erald syndicate. says he has located some of the ancient mines hidden from the profteering Spaniards by the na. tfves.
 The emeralds of Colombia are the finest. but not the biggest, in the world, and the country produces more than all the rest of the world combined. The recently rediscovered mines, Mir. Dixon said, are about two and half days Journey from Bogota.

 One of the twelve is called ~Sami- ehlaus." It is his duty to give the sosa children presents. Tho other eleves remain at a little distance on the ont skirts of the jolly crowd that folloWs hsm on their rounds, giving candy te sAe grownups and sntsrtaininz svery- AsAy with their ciowning

The local papers greatest opportuni- " for service is in aiding rural devel- opment. Take a county, for example. where the roads are bad, the schools poor, the schoolhousees inadeouate the water powers unharnessed. forests butchered, farmers using one-horse blows, and putting more faith in al manac signs than in agricultural science, and the natural resources gen. erally going to waste. What may not be accomplished in such a communi- ty by an editor filled with the spirit or progress and enterprise, What q golden opportunity is neglected when such an editor shuts his eyes to it and wastes his life in fighting the battles of the little cliques and machines inside his party!-Clarence Poe, in the Pro- gressive Farmer.
 And that's the idea the News has had all these years. We had rather help build up than to fight any day in the week and every day. We know or no higher reward to a lifetime of labor than to have had a hand in the development of a great country and to help instill the spirit of progress and enterprise in people we love. We believe that the young man who goes out and rebuilds worn-out farm and thereby helps the community forward sets good example, the end of which no man can see, should be let to under stand at some appropriate time that he mas done more than if he had gone to some distant city to clerk in some body else's store. He is builder.

GRADING OF CREAM IS URGED
Surest Means of Producing Good But ter, Says Dairy Specialist at
 University Farm.

Pointing out that cream grading is the surest means of producing good butter, A. J.

Plenty of time Is given by the

shown that funds are not available,
easy methods are devised. In other
cases, after a certain interval, notice
is sent to the defaulter that the tax
must be RENTED by a certain date

regarded more urgent notice is sent,
and three days grace given. After
that distress warrant against the
