ARK.--Chill winter winds sweep across a lofty, 700- acre plateau at Kimberley, in the Arkansas Ozarks, and rattle the flimsy timbers of a scattered group of weathered shacks--empty now, their framework like the clean picked bones of some long extinct monster thrown up from the maw of the dead volcanic crater which forms this plateau. But those rickety buildings once formed the nucleus of what was to be a humming metropolis, built on the very top of a diamond mine which was to rival the African Kimberley fields for productivity SLOCUM'S LAKE at • Western Gold But, like other ghost .towns of the gold and silver regions of the West, the Ozarks' Kimberley died.

The bulletin also explained the most generally accepted theory of the formation of the valuable stones of crystalized carbon. The Arkansas field--the field proper-- comprises an area of only about 60 acres. This area, the bulletin said, is the mouth of a volcanic funnel or outlet through which flaming lava once poured under terrific pressure from the depths of the earth. With it the river of lava brought masses of peridiotite soil. Mingled in this fine, sterile earth were glittering bits of carbon forced into crystalization by the intense ^pressure existing miles below the earth's crust. Gems Equal to Kimberley's. When "Diamond John" Huddleston, Murphreesboro farmer, found the first two Arkansas diamonds, and they were of the highest quality --equal to those of the renowned Kimberley mines of South Africa-- a rush- to the 60 acre plot was made and when it was over the entire plot ,was cut up into small claims--the largest of these held by five separate, corporations. For a time operations went ahead on a primitive scale and several thousand dollars worth of diamonds were taken from the field. (The largest of these was a stone of 40.23 carats. Another of 20.25 carats was picked up and a third huge diamond of 17.86 carats was found.) Then, for some reason--some sources say it was pressure from interests that wanted to prevent the Arkansas field from competing with Africa's Kimberley to force the price down--the mining operations slackened and died. But, whatever the reason, the Arkansas diamond mines soon were FAIR HIGHLIGHTS AVIATION DAY Saturday, AUG. 19 W.ANES IN BATTlt FOR MAT ION AND SQUADRONS OF PRIVATE PLANES fROM ALL OVER THE STATf--^^ CITIZENSHIP PROGR0T Saturday, AUG. 19 THE GREATEST DEMONSTRA TION OF IOTAI AMERICANISM EVER PRESENTED AMERICAN LEGION 0AY Tuesday, AUG. 22 FIND "ELMER". - MEET THE SAIUTIN' DEMON" -- LAUGH WITH THE .ROLLICKING LEGIONNAIRES D A I R Y D A Y Friday, AUG. 25 CROWNING OF THE NEW STATE DAIRY QUEEN AND NOVEL FEATURES J U N I O R F A I R BADGER YOUTH ON PARADE" AMERICAS LARGEST JUNIOR FAIR GORGEOUS GIRLS BtAUTIFUL MUSIC SfhSAIlONAl ftCINC FLYINC COLORS IEIIU'1 SWWttT OUTDOOR WNCAl HTHmGMZA AUTO RACES «w,," *"». >4,. . * .j;-0*., ters of Tulsa, Okla., arrived here Sunday evening for a visit with her sister, Mrs. Agnes Jencks.

Haddan said he learned his hobby the hard way from his mother. "Whenever I made mistakes I got a spanking," he said. He and his wife have teamwork when they quilt.

Dog Wanders Home After Being Away for Two Years CHICAGO.--Rex is just a dog, a wire-haired fox terrier, but he remembered what the old homestead looked like after two and a half years. The dog, owned by R. L. Snape and family, had been missing since July, 1936. Recently, Mary Snape was walking near the family home and came upon a bedraggled mutt. She yelled "Rex," and the pup jumped up to lick her hand. Taken home, he remembered every member of the Snape family and ran straight to his bed in the basement. Nobody knows where Rex was during the last couple of years. Mr. and Mrs. John Blomgren spent last Thursday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Lusk at Maple Park.

Must Increase Farm Income, Says Ford Boy Aged Seven Really Sees World Topsy-Turvy DECATUR, ALA.--The world is really upside down to Jimmie Peebles, seven-year-old Hillsboro (Ala.) school boy. When Jimmie reads a book, a newspaper or magazine, he holds it the wrong way. When automobiles pass along the street, they seem to have their wheels in the air. He thinks persons would look natural if they walked on their hands. At least, that's the way Jimmie explained his predicament to an eye specialist in Decatur, where he was brought for treatment. The optometrist examined Jimmie's eyes and found vision normal. He said the lad is bright for a boy of his age. To test Jimmie, the doctor had him read a comic page. Jimmie read very well for a second grade pupil, but he held the paper upside down. Jimmie's school teacher discovered his condition when she noticed him holding his reader upside down. It was easier to read that way, he said. Then she tried the blackboard, and Jimmie read much, more readily when it was inverted. White Tomato Developed By California Physician SACRAMENTO, CALIF.--It's El Tomato Blanco now--which means in Old Mexico the white tomato. The colorless addition to the tomato family, the state department of agriculture disclosed, was so christened by Mexican workers employed by Dr. Jonas Clark, farmer and physician of Gilroy, who developed the product after eight years of experimentation. Doctor Clark described the tomato as "absolutely white, about the same size as an ordinary tomato, but much sweeter." Con/ult the, WANT ADS Veteran of 2 Wars Lives 17 Years on Houseboat WINTHROP, MASS. -- Joseph Fraser, veteran of the Spanish and World wars, for 17 years has "lived alone and liked it" on a trim houseboat tight against the shore that separates this town from Boston. Love of the sea, says Fraser, prompted him to establish a bait business here. Everything is compact and ship-shape in his 30 by 10 bachelor quarters, which include a bedroom, living room, kitchen, porch and workroom. At high tide, the "home" is completely at sea. Cat Discards Judgment Over Appetite for Fish KERNVILLE, CALIF.--Mrs. Etta McDonald would like to know if the dominating intellectual quality of cats is intelligence or just perseverance. Her pet cat, in search of its preferred diet of fish, delved its head too far into the fragmentary contents of a can of salmon and remained with its head inside until released the next morning in a virtual state of collapse. Sufficiently recovered, however, to begin life anew, it at once repeated the performance. Intruder Gets Surprise, Apologizes and Departs CAMBRIDGE, MASS. -- Mrs. Florence Iacbacci was awakened by the noise of an elderly man climbing through her first floor bedroom window. "What do you want?" she qua' vered. Though startled, the intruder didn't forget his manners. Politely tipping his hat, he said: "I beg your pardon. I seem to have got in the wrong bedroom." He retreated through the front door. WITH Ed , " seat to el Ford in the driver's turn the first furrow, the new and vastly-discussed Ford- ,Fergnson tractor made its world's- - first public appearance at the New , . .York World's Fair in late July, - Shown above are Henry Ford and " Harry Ferguson, Irish inventor who developed the principles embodied : >!n the new tractor and its unit implements, with a small moder of the tractor between them. V Said Henry Ford: "I look for 'this tractor to accomplish two things--turn the farm deficit into , a profit and reduce the expense of £oiug on the land!" Enthusiastijcally seconding his father, Edsel Ford added: "The farm is one of the most vital problems now before the country. No political solution yet offered has been able to •olve it. To increase farm income by increasing the cost of food in the cities is a policy no one, not even the farmer, approves. And yet every one agrees the farmer's in* ; eome must be increased. "My father and I believe that if ' the former can do what industry lias done--make his profit out of fconomy of production and distriwill increase his income without curtailing his ket We built this tractor primaril to cut the farmer's first co "This tractor Is the only one nade that completel; the place of horses and mules, th eliminating draught animals whi constitute one of the farmer* heaviest costs. Four cows or young cattle, which mean inc , can be raised on the same land re> quired to feed two farm horses that only mean expense." Harry Ferguson said that among outstanding new features of the Ford tractor are light weight, aim* plicity of operation, maneuver* ability, fuel and oil economy, absolute safety on hillsides or difficult ground, and ability to strike any sort of obstruction without damage to implements. The new machine will do the work of eight horses and four men, he said. The Ford-Ferguson tractor is now in production, and will be available to the public through Ford and other dealers about Sep* tern ber 1. It is being demonstrated daily at the Ford Exposition, New York World's Fair. Antelope Its Own Enemy In a sense the antelope is its own worst enemy because of its curiosity, according to the American Wildlife institute. The antelope simply cannot stand the presence of anything strange without investigating. Hunters, taking advantage of this fact, lured thousands within range by lying low and waving a bandana on a ram-rod or simply by throwing themselves prone and raising their feet in the air at rhythmic intervals. The antelopes must investigate-- and come too close to the business end of the hunter's *un. Crust of Earth The crust of earth consists largely of granite, which is 20 miles thick in places. Paint Discoveries by Accident Many components of paint were discovered entirely by accident. The walls of a soda furnace first revealed a deposit from which ultramarine was perfected. A chemist named Diesbapk stumbled onto the art of making Prussian blue by accidentally mixing some alkali--that had been previously used to clarify ox blood--with a . chemical solution. American zinc came of accidentally employing Franklinite instead of sand in a smelting furnace --French process zinc was discovered in the dross or skimmings from galvanizing baths. -r = Conferred Degree on Lincoln In the spring of 1864, Princeton conferred the degree of doctor iof laws on President Lincoln.
