ARKAHSAS TAKES TO GROWING RICE

Experiments on Formerly Unused Lands Has Proved A Success.

OPENS UP NEW INDUSTRY ABOUT 4,000 ACRES 80WN THIS YEAR MEANS BIG INCREASE OF PROSPERITY IN THE BIG RICE DISTRICT.

Wheatley, Ark., June 12. Wheatley Is one of the old towns ot Eastern Arkansas. It has only 'four hundred or five hundred Inhabitants, still it has always enjoyed a nice little trade derived " from about two thousand bales of cotton, a few carloads of

prairie hay and a little timber bust- .. cess. The timber has been practically cut, and the lands that have been In cultivation for many years are -not so fertile as they used to be. Still the town has held Its own and slowly improved a little. ' It has always maintained & good school and has plenty of churches, a first class cotton gin and sawmill, as well as a good spoke factory, which is in full operation. The population is pretty well divided as to whites and blacks, but harmony has always prevailed, ; the whites always showing a disposition to give the negro what was his due. Are Prairie Lands. The lands east, northeast and southeast of Wheatley are prairie, which up to three years ago was not considered of much value for farming pur- , poses, as it is underlaid with a hardpan which was considered a great detriment to the land, as the water that fell had to either run oft or be taken up by evaporation, but now things have very much changed. What was considered a detriment to the land - now proves its salvation. Three or four years - ago A. Bryson conceived the idea of raising rice on the prairie land. He spent several thousand dollars In his experiments, v which have given the most flattering results, growing from fifty to one hun

dred bushels an acre of the finest rice

that grows In any quarter of this universe. ,- There Is now sown and to be sown about 4,000 acres of rice this season on this prairie. This created the . necessity of having a rice mill here to mill the rice, hence S. D. Johnson, of Uaiianna; James Fnsiell and 8. H.

Mann, of Forrest City and Byron Hopkins of Chicago, incorporated the Wheatley Rice Mill and Power company, under the laws of Arkansas, for $100,000, with $60,000 paid in. The Power Plant. The electric power plant Is to furnish power for pumping water on the various rice farms scattered over the prairie. The electric power machinery will cost about $20,000. It is 500 kilowatts, of three-phase, 60-cycle, 2,300 volts, alternating current, General Electric generators and 50-horse power Inductor motors at each well. Total capacity for pumping of twenty wells, transmission line ultimately to total sixty imles, engines driving generators to consist of both simple and compound Corliss units. Boilers to be both water tube and tubular. Selfsupporting steel stack 100 feet above foundation. This enterprise means lots of business for the railroads, they having already been paid about $3,000. The cost of power machinery is $20,000; rice mill machinery, $16,000; rice mill buildings, $15,000. It will, require about 500,000 feet of lumber for the various buildings. Two of the large boilers, weighing ten tons each, came in a short time ago and are now in place ready for the masonry, the concrete work hav

ing been completed.

The rice industry of Arkansas

means millions of dollars to the state,

and It comes from lands that have not

been considered very valuable for other farm products. It opens up the finest field for Investment in the state as the rice crop gets its nourishment

from the water and the atmosphere and the water supply is unlimited.

Brockton, Mass., June 12. More than one month ago, while the entire world was awaiting anxiously the birth of an heir to the throne of Holland, and modistes, jewellers, silk importers and toy makers in a dozen European capitals were rushing the royal orders, one of Brockton's newest and smallest shoe firms, also at royal .order, was making the. shoes which now adorn the little feet of the Dutch crown princess. Packed in a satin box and decorated with the royal arms of Holland the little princess' shoes left ' for Europe a short time ago, the first time in Brockton's history that royalty has become included in the list of

its shoe shops' distinguished customers. This was the order received by

the shoe company: Three pairs - satin brocade moccas ins, colors white, pink and blue: ;

Three pairs calf moccasins, colors.

pink white and blue.

Three pairs of kid anglets, colors

pink, white and blue: .

Three pairs of kid button shoes,

colors pink, white and blue.

Three pairs of overshoes, lavender silk brocade, fur lined. One pair of button shoes, cloth-of-gold and pearl buttons. One pair of anklets. clotof-siIver and pearl buttons. ' , Two pairs of bronze anklets, French kid. Two pairs of satin brocade anklets, pearl buttons. Of Costly Material. " With the order came a heavy registered package containing the materials. There were satin and silk brocades, which could not be duplicated outside the most exclusive shops in the world, cloth-of-gold, cloth-of-silver and the finest kid and softest leather ever seen in the city. of Brockton. Probably no footwear turned out of an American shop ever received half the attention which was paid to the tiny boots and moccasins of the coo

ing and crying little princess at The

Hague.

Every buttonhole was double work

ed with the most extreme care.

Every thread that went into the

make-up of the miniature shoes was tested and retested before use.

Every piece of kid and satin was

examined with a glass for possible

defects before it was allowed to become a part of the footwear.

Out of the eighteen persons em

ployed in the shop only four were

permitted to touch the princess' shoes. These were the two firm members and their wives and all the work

done on the two dozen pairs of shoes was the result of their labor.

The cost of a little princess' footwear is no little Item, since several pairs of the shoes are valued at $200 a pair. One large Boston dealer who looked at a piece of brocade which was made into a pair of anklets said the material alone could not be bought at less than $150 a yard. The value of the cloth of gold and cloth of silver cannot be estimated. One of the most interesting pieces of material was a strip of embroidered satin from Queen Wilhelmina's wedding dress.

Eating Oysters. Surely the queerest way of cooking an oyster Is that mentioned In the year 1672. when Richardson, the fire eater, took a live coal on his tongue; on this he put a raw ovster in Its shelL

j while an attendant blew upon the coal

with bellows until it flamed and sparkled in his mouth. This continued until the oyster opened and was perfectly cooked. The European ' Magazine for 1806 contains an account of a young lady at Brighton who undertook to eat for supper the amazing quantity of 300 oysters, with a certain amount of bread and butter. This feat she performed, greatly to the astonishment of all present.

Another provision of the law says it is a misdemeanor for any person connected with a drinking place, or dance hall or music ball, where intoxicants are sold, to permit women or any person previously convicted, whether in this state or elsewhere, of any crime amounting to felony to enter these premises, or sell or give them liquor. Any one selling or giving liquor to a

common drunkard or intoxicated' person, shall also be guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a fine and jail imprisonment. Test cases will follow the enforcement of these provisions.

Women Who Are Envied. Those attractive women who are lovely In face, form and temper are the envy of many, who might be like them. A weak, sickly woman will be nervous and irritable.

They regulate Stomach, Liver and Kidneys, purify the blood; give strong nerves, bright eyes, pure breath, smooth, velvety skin, lovely complexion. Many charming women owe their health and beauty to them. EOc at A. O. Luken A Co.
