COMES FROM SPAIN
TO HOT SPRINGS
J. Larsen of Bibloo, Spain, En
joys Course of Baths at Our
Famous Health Resort
According to reports from
Hot Springs, among those who
hold a long distance record for
coming to that wonderfully fa
mous health and pleasure re
sort, for a course of baths is
J. Larsen, of Bibloo, Spain. He
said that he enjoyed his trip to
the Springs, and before he had
been indulging in the baths a
week, declared that he had
noted the benefit of this fa
mous hot water.
Mr. Larsen has been con
nected with some very promi
nent lumber interests in Nor
way which transacted a big
business not only in Spain but
also in other European coun
tries. The present war has, in
a great measure, made the
lumber business in Europe any
thing but encouraging. It is un
derstood that Mr. Larsen has
been requested,since it became
known he was coming to Hot
Springs, to investigate the lum
ber regions of this country and
immediately after his course of
baths he purposes to make a
tour through the great North
west anti Canada.
Mr. Larsen is not very talk
ative but while in Hot Springs
made some very agreeable ac
quaintances, among others he
met C. J. Alberts, a well
known and wealthy contractor
who is at present located in
Colon, on the Panama Canal.
This is also Mr. Alberts’ initial
visit to Hot Springs, although
during the past fifteen months
he has been in the United
States on several business trips.
‘‘I have heard many in the
Canal zone speak of Hot
Springs.” said Mr.Alberts,“and
I am pleased to state that the
reports I received have not
been in the least exaggerated.
Several of the prominent en
gineers on the Canal, I under
stand, will be here during the
remaining summer months
when they take their vacation.
Hot Springs is pretty well
known on the Isthmus.”

FAIR EXCHANGE
A New Back For An Old One.
How It Can Be Done in
Newark
The back aches at times with
a dull, indescribable feeling,
making you weary and restless
piercing pains shoot across the
region of the kidneys,and again
the loins are so lame that to)
stoop is agony. No use to rub
or apply a plaster to the back
if the kidneys are weak. You
cannot reach the cause.Newark
residents would do well to pro
fit by the following example.
Mrs. M. Porter, 416 Hazel)
St., Newport, Ark., says: “1;
had a constant ache inthesmall I
of my back. Stooping or lifting j
made me suffer intensely and
I felt languid and worn-out
most of the time. Aly kidneys
didn’t act as they should. A
box of Doan's Kidney Pills
freed me of the ailments.”
Price 50c, at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pills—the same that Airs. Por

Afiisciy in Back,Headache
and Pain in Limbs.
Hear Mr. Editor—For more than n
year I Buffered with misery in the back,
aull headache, pain in the limbs, was
somewhat constipated and slept poorly
at night until I was about ready to col
lapse Seeing an account of the won
derful qualities of "Anuric,” prepared
bv Doctor Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., I
se^ f°r a box, and before using the
whole box I felt and still feel improved.
Aly sleep is refreshing, misery reduced,
and life is not the drag it was before. I
most cheerfully recommend this remedy
to sufferers from like ailments.
Yours truly, W. A. Roberts.
Note : \ ou’ve all undoubtedly heard
of the famous Dr. Pierce and his well
known medicines. Well, this prescrip
tion is one that has been successfully
nsed for many years by the physicians
and specialists of Dr. Pierce’s Invalids’
Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo,
■N. x., for kidney complaints, and dis
eases arising from disorders of the
kidneys and bladder, such as backache,
weak back, rheumatism, dropsy, con
gestion of the kidneys, inflammation
of the bladder, scalding urine, and
urinary troubles.
Up to this time, " Anuric” has not
been on sale to the public, but bv the
persuasion of many patients and the
increased demand for this wonderful
healing Tablet, Dr. Pierce has finally
decided to put it into the drug stores
of this country within immediate reach
of all sufferers.
I know of one or two leading drug
gists in town who have managed to
procure a supply of "Anuric” for their
anxious customers in and around this
locality. If not obtainable send one
dime by mail to Dr. Pierce for trial
package or 50 cents for full treatment.

Borne conspicuous place in your paper.

BETTER FARMING &
*J HINTS &
# - a
O BY J. H. MILLER t?
o o
RAPE FOR PIGS
Every farmer who expects
to carry over a few pigs for
the winter should plant within
| the next two weeks a patch of
rape for winter pasture. Rape •
planted before the middle of
September will furnish pasture
for at least three months and
farmers will be surprised at
the number of pigs that can be
pastured on an acre. “Do not
buy feed when it can be
grown,” should be the motto
of every farmer.Arkansas buys
too much pork when we can
grow pork cheaper here than
can the farmers of any of the
northern states.
A GOOD PASTURE
A farmer near Forrest City
has a 12-acre permanent pas
ture on which he pastured from
April 1, 1915 to October 15.
1915, 50 cows, 5 horses and 12
sows and their pigs. This is one
of the greatest pasture reports
ever sent to the Extension Of
fice of the University of Ark
ansas. This statement was veri
fied by many neighbors. The
pasture has Bermuda grass for
its base with bur clover, white
clover, hop clover and Lesped
eza, thus giving pasture Un
practically the whole year.
Stock had been kept on this
particular pasture every day
for seven years. The farmer
stated in a public meeting re
cently that these 12 acres had
produced more money for him
than any 30 acres on his farm.
SELECTING SEED
One hundred farmers in ev
ery county in Arkansas are
wanted who will agree to select
seed corn from their fields in
September, selecting good ears
from good stalks, ears not ov
er four feet from the ground
and ears hanging down rather
than standing out; from stalks
of medium height, neither too
tall nor too short; stalks with
plenty of biades and with a
good root system. If every far
mer will select three times as
[many bushels of seed as he will
probably need for planting,
hang up these ears in a shed
and then after a month or two
remove the husks and sort
again and put away for the
winter, guarding against the
weevil, there will be ample
seed supply for next spring.
Then in February those ears
should be sorted again, the tips
and butts removed, the ears
shelled and the corn graded.
If 100 farmers in each county
can be found who will under
take this campaign for better
seed corn, we car. increase our
yield in 1917 over 30 per cent
from the same acreage. Rem
ember that September is the
month for selecting seed corn
and remember that seed corn
should always be selected from
the standing stalks in Septem
ber and not from the crib in
March.
THE COUNTY AGENT
The campaign in progress
for clovers and pastures and
cover crops furnishes many
fine examples as to the value
of the county agricultural
agent. In one county, where
last year no crimson clover was
seeded, the county agent had
in the warehouse in his town
on last Saturday 75 bushels of
crimson clover seed and reports
of need of as much more. In
another county,3000 hogs have
been vaccinated in ten months
by the county agent, and in an
adjoining county without any
agent 3000 hogs have died
from cholera in seven months.
Thirteen cars of pure bred cat
tle, mostly bulls, have been
brought into Arkansas since
February, 1916, all of them in
counties with county agricul
tural agents. Not a car of pure
bred cattle has been brought!
into any county that is without
a county agent. The county ag
ricultural agent is the only em
ployee of the county who is
constantly at work for the far
mers and for agricultue.
“HOGGING DOWN” CORN
Many caeful experiments at
the Experiment Stations have
proved the merits of the prac
tice of “hogging down” corn.
Let the hogs gather the crop;
fence off a few acres at a time
and if no peas in corn the pigs
should be fed some bran, or
tankago, or peas from another
field should be cut and thrown
to them. Small fields may be
harvested more economically
by the pigs than in any other
way and the field is being fe
tilized all the time. Every far
mer should always plan a
small field of corn and peas to
be “hogged down,”
PICK COTTON EARLY
Thousands of dollars of good
cotton money are sacrificed in
Arkansas each year because*
of failure to get the cotton pick*
ed promptly and before it has
opportunity to fall to the
ground where it not only be
| comes trashy and full of'sand
but where it is damaged bv ex
posure to weather. Cotton left
in the fields for a long period
of time fades until it becomes
more or less transparent when
it is recognized as blue cotton
and the price is reduced by
about a cent per pound. Much
of the cotton falling to the
ground begins to decay and is
damaged thereby. Oftentimes
when cotton is left open in the
tield during a wet season the
seed begins to sprout and the
subsequent decay leads to
stained and inferior cotton.
Save the cotton in best possible
condition by getting it picked
early.
CLOVER BULLETINS
Farmers and others who
want to study the clover grow
ing business should write for
bulletins on Red Clover, Sweet
Clover, Crimson Clover, Les
pedeza, Bur Clover and Alfal
ta. W rite to the Extension Of
tice, old state house, Little
