The house of representatives has
passed a bill making it a felony to

ing that they are members of a

Cotton seed for planting1 pur
poses are getting extremely
.scarce, and in many places are
selling as high as #t>0 a ton. He
is a wise farmer who saves about
twice the amount of seed he ex
pects to plant.
Sully county, Minnesota, claims'

of a horseless farm. The Grose
close brothers have a big tract of j
land which they are cultivating!
entirely without the aid of hcrrses i
or other animals. Their plough- j
ing, harrowing, seeding, harvest- ;
ing and marketing is all done with j
motor machinery.

Ouachita county claims to have j
two of the most progressive small j
towns in Arkansas. Childester, in 1
the nortwestern part of the county '
with a population in 1000 of only
220, has installed an electric light
plant and business houses and
residences are lighted by electri
city. Stephens, the population of
which, according to the last cen
sus, was 707, has granted a fran
chise for electric lighting and
water supply, the first to be in
operation by July 1. Here is a
good example for Nawark to fol
low.
THE LIQUOR BUSINESS
(Continued from page 1)
equal to Batesville in all that is
needed to make a first class town, i
Stand together for sobriety,
order, and enforcement of law,
and see what wonderful prosperity
will come in the midst of a peace
loving, moral and religious com
munity. Men are almost daily
looking for a place to make invest
ments, to operate some sort of an
industry that will be of value to
all, and they do not want to do so
where there is lack of harmony
and agreement on the part of the
citizenship of a community, and
where they think their interests
will be subjected to the lack of en
forcement of law. Be united, and
drop the question of so little good
to any one, if any good at all, and
take up questions that contain
matters of real worth to all. In
vite immigration, put out induce
ments to men of means to locate
in your midst, and it don’t take a
very wise man to say great things
will pome in more ways than one.
Stand by your churches and
schools; nothing on earth can be
substituted for these. Be a child
God and educate, should be the
motto of all. This done, nothing
need be feared for these true
essentials united, make an invinci
ble character, as to man or town.

Don’t Use n Scarecrow
To Drive Away the
IHail Order Wolf
You can drive him out
quickly if you use the mail
order houses’ own weapon
—advertising. Mail order
concerns are spending
thousands of dollars every
week in order to get trade
from the home merchants.
Do you think for a minute
they would keep it up if
they didn't get the busi
ness? Don't take it for
granted that every one
within a radius of 25 miles
knows what you have to
sell, and what your prices are. Nine times out of ten your prices
are lower, but the customer is influenced by the up-to-date adver
tising of the mail order house. Every article you advertise should
be described and priced. You must tell your story in an inter
esting way, and when you want to reach the buyers of this com
munity use the columns of this paper.
