AID FARMERS IN CAMPAIGN.
Bankers and Merchants Ready to Help With
Diversification and Livestock.
The great Profitable Farming
campaign next Monday, November
9, with a meeting at Little Rock of
the governors of the cotton states
and leading farmers, merchants
and bankers fropn all over Arkanl
sas and the South.
Among the leading agriculturists
who will be present is P. G Hol
den, directo" of the agricultural
extention department of the Inter
national Harvester Go. He will
take part in. the entire campaign
with his staff of 12 or 1 5 practical
farming men who have done so
much for diversification and live
stock in Mississippi and other
Southern states. In each county
visited from 25 to 40 meetings
will be held on farms, at school
houses and in towns.
The object of the campaign is to
bring into closer cooperation the I
banking, mercantile and farming
interest of the state. Many of the
leading farmers and business men
declare that only through a di
versity of drops and the raising of
more poultry and livestock can the !
people have money and be able to
keep their money at home. Hu:-|
dreds of farmers are ready to give
up the exclusive raising of cotton
and begin afresh with money
making crops and livestock. But
these men need practical aid from
the bankers and merchants.
Mary of the business men real
ize, that for their own sakes, they
must help the farmers to bring
about farming business prosperity i
in,the face of the cotton situation.
They say what helps the farmer
helps them and that they are ready
to do their pa^t in a material way.
“We must all get together now
as never before," says one of the j
leading banker-farmers of the
state. “No matter what the out- J
come of the cotton situation may
be, we can solve ckir problem only
by making more money and keep
ing this money at home. The only
way to make more money is to di
versify our crops and to get more
cows, hogs and chickens. These
are the things that have made the
people in Iowa and Illinois rich and
they will make us rich. The situ
ation is critical, but we will be in
fine shape next summer and fall if
the whole state is aroused to the
necessity for complete diversifica
tion. This is solving the problem
in Mississippi and will solve it
here. This movement will do
more for all the people than any
other movement ever started in
the state. It means money and
more and more mcney year after
year.”
Notice to Farmers.
Commencing Nov. 1, our gin will
run only on Tuesdays and Thurs
days and Saturday mornings. The
grist mill will run Saturday after
noons. Neel & Brasher.

American Horses in Battle.
The American horse is one of
the first to answer the bugle call of
the European war. Representa
t fs of many foreign governments
a^e in this country purchasing
h rses for the various armies of
the warring nations and practically
every state in the Union is contri- I
buting cavalry material to the bel- j
ligerent factions.
The American horse is a utility
animal and excels that of any other
country on the face of the earth.
He has plowed our fields, fought
i our battles and is the most faithful
j of animal kind. His reputation has
, extended to other countries and he
j is now going to perform the serv
! ices for foreign countries which he
has so faithfully fulfilled at home.
Arkansas at the Exhibition.
Thirty five counties in Arkansas
have agreed to send the best of
their county fair exhibits to the
state fair at Hot Springs, and to
maintain it there as a county ex
hibit. At the close of the fair the
best of these will selected and sent
on to San Francisco to the Panama
Pacific International exposition.
'Other counties will be added to
this as their fairs are held, and it
is contemplated that at least sixty
Arkansas counties will make dis
plays in the large hall at Hot
Springs. This arrangement is of
great assistance to the commis
sioners of the Arkansas organiza
tion. for it gathers all the principal
exhibits in one place, and not only
assists the state fair, but permits
the shipment of the products in
] car lots.
By November 15 the Arkansas
building at the Panama exposition
will be under roof, and January
will see it so near completed that
the decorators may begin their
work and have all the exhibits in
place for the opening of the fair in
February. Two cars loaded with
interior finish for the building all of
: which is being supplied by lumber
| men of Arkansas without cost to
the state, were shipped to San
Francisco last week, and more will
go next week. The two first cars
were of pine, and the balance will
be oak. gum and other Arkansas
hardwoods. The finish in each
room will be different, in order to
show the world the many ways in
which Arkansas .woods may be
worked to advantage.

FAVORS
W|> n vru have favors to extend, you hr d ether ac
commodate a neighbor who has ac rommodatec yo 1 in some
way. You naturally feel that you should favoi th >se whp
favor you.
Just so it is in business. The merchant will more
readily extei d credit to the man whom he Knows spends
his cash w,th him.
Here at the bank we can always make a loan to a de
positor who we know will bring his deposits to us when he
has funds. Of course, we have to loan to others sometimes
:n order to ''et our money out, but we naturally would
rather favor with loans those who have favored us with
their deposits.
So it is a good plan to have banking connections with a
good strong bank. Make this your banking home. De
posit with us when you can and when the tirm comes that
you need help you will find us able and willing to help you.
