Crops In The Hills
Batesville, August 7.—On two
roads from Evening Shade to
Hardy, one going through Ash
Flat and the other through Da
vidson township, not a real ear
of com can be seen from Straw
berry river, except in the low
bottom lands along these
streams. It is said that in the
above named township not e
nough corn will be raised to
feed one horse. Very little
wheat or other small grain was j
sowed and cotton will not pro
duce one-fourth of a good crop
Many of the citizens are talk-1
ing of moving away.
Oil On Streets.
The editor of the England
Courier visited Danville recent
ly and told his readers what oil
had done to relieve that city of !
the “dust devil.” Don’t you
think it is worth trying? I
“During a visit to the thriv
ing town of Danville this week
we saw to our amazement the |
benefit of the use of oil on our
streets. Automobiles, horses |
or wind could not raise a dust. |
The town seems to have on its
Sunday dress every day, the |
counters in the store are free
from mussy dirt and everything
has a neat, clean appearance.
Upon consulting the business
men, we found that they were
all loud in their praise of oiled
streets and said that for no
reasonable expense would they
give it up.
“Mayor F. D- Majors said
that last year was their first
experience and that the cost
was $318 ior nearly a mile of
streets^ that this year the cost

was $240. That it proves as '
beneficial in the winter as in !
tho summer, as it prevents mud !
to a certain extent- He says if j
the streets are graded properly!
at the time the oil is distribut- j
ed the water will run qff so that
there will be very little if any
mud- He says the citizens of
the town would not go back to
the old water sprinkling wagon
if the money had to be made up
by popular subscription. The
towns of Hartford, Booneville,
Plainview, Paris, and Dardan
elle all have oiled streets and
like it. In Lonoke county, Cab
ot and Carlisle are using oil and
from reports we get the experi
ence is satisfactory.”
Fighting Malaria In State.
Special to Independent
Little Rock, August 7.—Gov
ernment health and sanitary ex
perts working in Southeast Ar
kansas, report excellent prog
ress in the malarial survey, and
measures to control malaria in
each community after these in
vestigations have been complet
ed. Later in the season blood
examinations will be made to
determine the amount of mala
ria in a community, with par
ticular reference to “carriers”,'
or individuals who have malaria
parasites in their blood practi
cally all the time. These “car
riers” infect the malaria-bear*
ing mosquitoes and are thus re- '
sponsible for the continuation of
malaria in the community.
Drs. Taylor and Molloy, ac
companied by Dr. Frank B. ;l
Young, and Dr. C. W. Garrison,
of the State Board of Health,
last week completed a survey Of
Blissville, Drew county. Dr. .Gar- .
rison also addressed a large au
dience at Eudora in the interest
of the hook-worm campaign be- |
ing carried on in the county by
Dr.T. H. Fly. In discussing j
the work Dr. Molloy said:

vestigation is an educational
campaign for the purpose of a
rousing popular interest in pub
lic health work, carried on by
the state health officials. Offi
cers of the U. S. Public Health
Service will instruct the people
