Yes, its hot, but remember
this is summer and we need the
cotton.
Amageddon has been per
manently erased from Teddy’s
war map._
It is the duty of every man
to help improve conditions in
his own neighborhood.
State-wide prohibition is
proving a good thing for Ark
ansas and The Journal does
not believe the people of the
state will vote to repeal the
law.
“If women get the ballot,
wars and rumors of wars will
cease,” says the Arkansas
News. And we always thought
the dear girls just adored
uniforms and brass buttons.
Instead of killing the fatted
calf when Prodigal Teddy re
turned, the Republicans sat
him down to a dish of crow
and a bowl of mush. And
Teddy did eat and pronounc
ed it good.
It is true that President
Wislon has been criticised se
verely by some people for
keeping this country out of
war. But that does not mean
that the average critic wants
to fight half so badly as he
wants to talk.
Life is a big school and
there are new lessons to be
learned every day. Those
who are willing to learn and
then apply their knowledge to
their daily problems will soon
find that there is profit as well
as pleasure in learning. Man’s
days of usefulness are about
passed when he gets to
the point where he can no
longer learn things.
ASKS CO-OPERATION
IN FIGHTING TICKS
Systematic Tick Eradication
is to be conducted in this ter
ritory this season. All per
sons owning or having control
of any cattle, should know
that systematic work means
the dipping of all cattle. The
regulations provide that all
cattle should be dipped regu
larly every 21 days, except
when excused from dipping
by an inspector. Cattle kept
within'the incorporate limits
ol towns should be dipped the
same as those kept on the out
side. It is hoped that every
one having cattle in their
charge will co-operate, by
bringing or sending them to
the vat regularly on dipping
days, and help finish up tin*
work this season.

STOCK GIVES IOWA
A BIG ADVANTAGE
Statistics Show Why Farmers
of Iowa are More Prosperous
Than Farmers of Arkansas.
One reason why Iowa excels
Arkansas as an Agricultural
state is the number and the
greater value of its live stock,
it is shown by figures compiled
from government statistics by
the Arkansas Profitable Fann
ing Bureau of Little Rock.
The bureau’s reason formak
ing this comparison is the hope
that a study of conditions in
Iowa—admittedly one of the
most advanced agriculttural
states—might show that condi
tions in Arkansas canbeimrov
ed. Arkanas and Iowa are
about equal in area and in the
number of farms, although it is
realized that Iowa possesses
some natural advantages that
could not be overcome.
Iowa is famous as a live
stock state because she leads
all the states in the number
and gross value of live stcok,
land she stands high in the
quality of her animals. In ad
dition to the horses kept for
farm work, many brood mares
are kept, as may be seen from
the fact that, according to the
census, the sales of horses and
mules averaged $130 per farm I
or fully half as much per farm
as the value of the cotton crop
of Arkansas for the same year.
With the larger farms of Iowa
there are naturally more ani
mals per farm, as is shown in
the following table.
Number of Animals Per Farm
Arkansas Iowa
Number of Mature
horses and mules 2 6
Number of Cattle 4 20
Number Hogs 7 35
Number fowls 27 108
When it is remembered that
the farms of Iowa are “one
family” farms quite as much as
are the farms of Arkansas, it
can be seen from the foregoing!
figures how much more live
stock is produced by each fam
ly in Iowa than in Arkansas.
This means both an abundance
of products for home use and
lor sale. But mere numbers do
not measure the whole differ
ence because they take no ac
count of quality. The value
per head is higher, however,
in Iowa than in Aransas, and
especially is this true of cattle
and hogs, whence most of the
money is derived.

It is pertinent to inquire why
a “one family" farm in Arkan
sas is a two horse farm, where
as in Iowa it is a six horse
farm. It is quite evident that
the extra four horses which
the Iowa family possesses has

HUSBAND RESCUED
DESPAIRING WIFE
Altar Four Year* of Discouraging
Conditions, Mrs. Bullock Gave
Up in Despair. Husband
Came to Rescue.
Catron, Ky.—In an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: “I suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, 1 could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all. At times, 1 would have severe pains
in my left side;
The doctor was called in, and his treat
ment relieved me for a while, but 1 was
noon confined to my bed again. After
that, nothing seemed to do me any good.
I had gotten so weak I could no* 6tand,
and 1 gave up in despair.
At last, ray husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me 1
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.”
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up In despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, In Its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will rernm.
mend ft Begin taking Cardui today.

something to do in helping it
to earn a good income. The
Iowa farmer produces fully
four times as many animals as
his Arkansas brother, and each
animal is worth at least 50 per
cent more money. Hence the
animal production per family
is approximately six times as
much in Iowa as in Arkansas.
In the magnitude of his busi
ness and in the quality of his
animals the Iowa farmer sets a
standard which is worth fol
lowing.

“You don’t dissipate do
