In speaking of the Congression
al campaign, the Walnut Kidge
Blade sa.vs that Congressman

strongest men in the Arkansas
delegation and on the stump has
few equals, but unless the signs
fail, W. A. Oldfield will give him

Prof. ,J. II. Hineinon, the state
superintendent of public instruc
tion, states that, the teachers’ in
stitutes held in the various comi
ties of the state, which have just
closed, were the most successful
ever held; were largely attended
and more interest shown. He
says there is a growing demand
for high grade teachers; and the
•school boards all over la* state
are determined to employ none
but the most o< mpetcnt teachers,
and have increased the salaries so
as to be sure to yet the best.
THE HEN PROFITABLE.
Some one has said that many
farmer's wives are making more j
on the amount of money invested
in liens than their husbands are
making on an equal amount in
vested in land or stock. We
have no doubt that this is true, and
the hen ought to take a higher
rank among farm stock than she
does. Biddy is seldom mentioned
among the assets of the farmer,
and yet she may be able to pur
chase the clothing for wife and
children, and often does as much
or more than that. Give her a|
good, clean and comfortable home,1
and plenty of plain, nutritious
food and plenty of water and she
will pay you a hundred fold and j
more.—Ex.

discretion authorize the expendi-j
ture of as much as four-fifths of;
