SHERRY Wine 50
YEARS IN CASKS
Spanish Blend Possible Only by
MelloWing Of Years

Xeres, Spain, Nov. 1e. R-Xeres
is equally famous as being the birth
place of General Primo de Rivera
and sherry wine. The Spanish Die
tator at the age Of sixty may be said
to have his career behind him while
sherry wine must be eighty years old
before starting out in the world.

which the connoisseurs of A. D..
zoos will relish has just now been
placed in the wood"
American Oak Used
America, prohibition notwithstand-
ing, plays an important part in the
fermentation of sherry. A port pipe
is generally made of oak from the
Baltic States but sherry butt must
be of American oak.
The grapes are pruned down to a
limited yield and dried in the sun
from one to two days to increase
the sugar contents after picking.
Men in specially constructed wooden
shoes tread out the first juice. The

en- spade-no metal must touch the
grape at any time. The pyramid is
then secured with espartograss mat
ting and the mush pressed out.
Blended By Years
The sherry is then transferred to
it's casks to be graduated later into
its blending cellars. The butts are
arranged in tires, the bottom tier
containing the mother wine, suf-
ficiently matured for shipping. Above
this tier are casks of younger wine,
with the years vintage at the top.
When the wine is drawn from the
bottom tier for export or internal
shipping an equal amount Is placed
into the cask from the tier above
and the second tier replenished
from the younger wine, generally
three or four years old.
A really great sherry is usually
eighty years old, mellow and a gold
en-broWn.
In the "bodegas" Of Xeres there
may be found sherry dating back
! two hundred years. 1t is black

drinking.

MUCH INTEREST LOST
BY BURYING MONEY

Pine Bluff, Sept.9.-Gold and Sill
yer money, totaling $455, which has
been out of circulation for many
years, was deposited in the savings
department of the National Bank
Of Arkansas here today according to
II. p. Harden, manager of the de-
partment.
The money was brought to the
bank by a negro woman who lives
in the vicinity Of Dermott, who
aaid the money had been buried on
a farm by her mother, who died
last year. Her mother began saving
new money about 1880 and the first
money saved was a $50 gold piece
bearing date Of 1874. When the wo-
man died last year SHE told her old
est daughter of burying the money
at different places around the home
on the farm. The money was
brought to the hank ma satchel.
There were 200 silver dollars,
three $40 gold pieces, three $40
gold pieces, three $5 gold pieces and
the balance in quarters and nick
els.
According to Mr.. Harden, if the
money had been placed on interest
at : per cent, compounded semi
annually, the S455 would by the
time have amounted to S3,294.2O.

SO AUGUST FIRES COST
p ARKANSAS 100000

Little Rock Ark, Sept p
Eighty-nine fires in Arkansas during
August resulted in the destruction OF
property valued at 100000, accord
inc to a report issued today by I.
e. Baker, manager Of the Arkansas
Fire Prevention Bureau. There also
were II deaths and injuries result
ing from fires last month according
to the report, which addeded that
the majority of fires were prevent
able as usual"
The continual fire loss, of which
90 per cent is considered preventable
is given for the cause for increase
in rates, by Mr.. Baker in his report.
Kerosene, gasoline and gas Were
responsible for IL of the II deaths
and injuries resulting from fires.
Because of this fact, Mr.. Baker ur-
qes extra precaution in handling IN
flamable materials, especially when
these materials comprise Arkansas
leading natural resources.

FARMERS HELPED BY
EDUCATION PROVEN
Amendment No. 13 Committee Gives
Results Of Survey Made in Five
States of Union.

That education is vital factor in
determining total production in both
town and country areas is amply
proved through a survey of five
typical agricultural states made dur
ring the past IL months, and a sum-
mary of finding has been issued by
the Citizens Committee in support
of Amendment No 13, the public
school amendment. The summary
Of particular interest to voters in
agricultural counties, in advance of
the vote to be cast at the general
election October 3.
1t was found in the five agricul-
tural states that the average earn
ing power of a farmer having COM
mon school education was $422,50
annually. Farmers with high school
education average 1854 annually.
Those who had partly completed
college showed earnings of 1859,
and college graduates average ST.
452.
Ranked in the point of product
ivity, the states having the best pub
lie school system showed higher pro-
duction than those having poor fac
ilities for public education. While
several factors worked to bring a
bout such a situation, the investig-
ators gave public education first
place in the showing. In fact, the
obvious conclusion is that progress
in education must come before agric-
ultures advance.
Another point of reckoning is
graphically set forth in a report by
National Education Association as
to the financial value of public school
training to the nublic receiving it.
Every pupil who leaves the gram
mar or high school to earn less than
50 per day is doing so at financial
loss. The association found that the
average wage earnings of uneduca-
ted laborers is $500 annually. Al
lowing 40 years for the lifetime per-
iod employment, the total will be
$4,000.
High school graduates, averaged,
earn $1,000 annually or $4,000 for
the lifetime pepriod.
By going to school lSO days an
nually for ~ years 2,16O days in
all the high school graduate added
$4,000 to his lifetime earnings
or S9,02 per day.
Since 1870, when Arkanas was
cxcrting lao per cent as much effort
10 support public schools as the
United States as a whole, the state
has gone steadily backwards except
for the slight stay offered in the lux
ury taxes made effective in 1928.
However, this slight barrier can
not long check the movement back

such relief as offered in Amendment

WANTED MORTGAGE
NOT A DEED, No SIR

Real estate men will appreciate

president of the Little Rock Real
Estate Board, told upon the introduc-
tion of the Judge d. Hopson, who
delivered an address on the subject
Of "Deeds," on which he is said to
be an authority.
"Up in Clay County, where Judge
Hopson came from" said Mr. Nc
Coy, an old negro bought piece of
land from another negro and went
to a real estate office to have the
papers executed. The deal was ex-
planned by the purchaser of the salts
faction of the seller the new owner
concluding his statement with the re
quest that a mortage be made out III
his favor. ..
"You mean a deed" suggested the
real estate man.
''No, sub, | means a mawgage," in
sisted the negro.
"You are buying the property ano
paying cash, aren't your" inquired
the real estate man.

TRIBUTE TO THE COUNTY PRESS
In the estimation of those who
1e followed most intimately the


progress of education in Arkansas
an c,"awhere, the greatest factor
in the development of the education
al system is the county press. The
weekly newspaper goes into the home
Of the people much more thoroughly
than the metropolitan dailies and is
in closer touch with their affairs and
their desires. This is the testimony
that is given oy the Arkansas Educa.
tional Association and the education
all leaders Of the state. The country
weeklies have never been called upon
for the performance of civic duty,
particularly in the interest of educa-
tion that they have not responded
one hundred per cent. This is espe-
cially true at this time when the news
paper Of Arkansas with scarcely an
exception are supporting the prop
osed amendment to the Constitution
increasing the maximum tax levy for
school purposes to Is mills. Now
where is there in evidence any strong
opposition to this proposition and
the teachers of Arkansas owe the
country newspaper a debt of graft
tude for their service.

At October Election

With the general election less

time. Four of these proposed acts
are amendments to the state con-
stitution, while the remaining two are
initiated laws.
/ The four amendments to the con-
stitution, while the remaining two
are initiated laws.
The four amendments to the con-
sttution are divided equally into two
classes, two of them having been
submitted by the 1925 legislature,
and two Of them having been initiat-
ed By petition The two amendments
subgnitted by the legislature are
known as proposed amendments No.

The proposed amendment lN')j
l3. if approved at the election. would
remove the twelve mill constitutional
unit for school district taxation, and
allow district taxation, and allow dis
tricts of the state as a means Of re-
lieying to some extent the poor finan-
cial condition which exists in some
school districts. Educational leaders
have pointed out that 'it is not what
they wanted" but hey are supporting
il on the ground that it is the best
thing offered"
Amendment No. If provides for
the exemption of cotton mills from
taxation for a period Of seven years
after their establishment, And is be-
ing offered as an additional induce
ment for the location of cotton mills
in the state Both Of these amend
ments were submitted by the legis-
lature.
Amendment No. Is provides for
the issuing of municipal bonds, and
if adopted, will allow cities to vote
bond issues for permanent improve
ments. 1t backed by an organization
of the mayors and cities Of the state,
and was inflated by them.
The remaining proposed amend-
ment, also initiated pf0"dcs that
"the general assembly shall not pass
any local or special act. This amend,
ment shall not prevent the repeS'
of any local or special act" It was
initiated to replace a similar amend
ment adopted in 1924, but declared
illegal by the supreme court because
of errors in its submission by the
