There is Work Here
For Everyone
When the people of Newark
fully realize the great possibi
lities for improvement in this
town and community, a way
for accomplishing the work
will be found.
The greatest trouble is that
the people of Newark do not
fully realize the possibilities of
this town and community.
Community progress does
not require heavy financial
burdens, if every citizen will
always do his part. The diffi
culty lies in the fact that so
many will not do their part.
They want the improvements,
they want to see Newark grow
and prosper, and would like
to see new industries brought
here, but they are not willing
to bear any of the expense,take
any responsibilities or put forth
any effort to get these things.
Before any material progress
can be made the people of the
community must understand
that community progress re
quires the assistance of all.
When all take part no one will
be burdened, but all will get
the benefits.
One great reason why many
communities are backward is
the fact that too many people
are looking for outside help
and are not willing to help
themselves.
The people of Newark should
remember that the future prog
ress of this town is in the hands
of the people of Newark. Our
progress and advancement, in
a business way, lies within our
selves, and we should remem
ber that nothing worth while
is ever accomplished without
effort.
The Arkansas Democrat says
“Those who have been fear
ing the United States is in a
fair way to succumb to militar
ism ought to gain some little
reassurance from the fact that
of the twelve aeroplanes now
on the border, none ancmfvvy
ancmfwypann.”
But really, we don’t believe
the most rabid militarists
thought they would do any
worse than that or rxflvbgkem.
The European war is being
crowded off the front page of
the newspapers—we have one
of our own.
Teddy has asked his folllow
ers to gently take the Bull
Moose buck to the woods and
turn it loose.
According to U. S. Govern
ment reports,the average value
of cattle in tick-infested states,
of which Arkansas is one, was
only $25.80 on the first of last
January, as compared with an
average of $48.47 for the rest
of the country. This is the con
dition which the tick-eradica
tion campaign now in progress
over the greater part of the
state is endeavoring to over
come. Ticky cattle weigh less
and are worth less per pound,
and cannot be sold on the pen
market, but must be disposed
of in quarantine pens for im
mediate slaughter only. Exper
ience has shown that almost
invariably tin1 disappearance
of the tick is accompaneid by
;in improvement in the quality,
and an increase in the quan-j
tity of the country’s live stock. I
The opposition that has been
shown in some sections of Ark
ansas is rapidly disappearing
and in a short time the whole
state will be included in the
eradication district.
Discussing the State Hospital
row, the Arkansas News says,
“Nothing would please the peo
ple of Arkansas any more than
for Dr. Bledsoe to resign as
superintendent of the State
Hospital for Nervous Diseases.
If nothing else showed his un
fitness for the position, his
willingness to sign a statement
he said he knew was untrue,
shows that he lacked force of
character and executive abili
ty.”
The people of this town who
believe in the future of New
ark ought fo get together and
organize for the purpose of
pushing the town to the front.
A live boosters organization can
do a great (leal toward putting
this town on the map. We are
well located and surrounded
by all the resources necessary
for the making of a real live
town.
The poorest men in the
world are the men who are
slaves to whatever they have
accumulated. Some men, be
their wealth great or small, are
influenced in their thoughts
and controlled in their every
action by what they have.They
have allowed themselves to be
bound and gagged by what
they have accumulated.
Many a man’s ignorance is
due to the fact that he thinks
he knows it all.

THE TICK’S TAX IS A
BURDENSOME ONES
Loss in Milk and Value of Cat
tle Runs Into Dollars in Very
Short Time
There is a not uncommon
idea that if a cow does not die
from Texas fever, the cattle
tick is doing it no great harm.
Native cattle, it is asserted,are
immune to the tick. There
could be no greater mistake.
Cattle may become immune to
the fever but none of them ev
er becomes immune to the loss
of the blood that the tick sucks
out. With steers, this loss
means reduced weight and
lower prices; witn dairy cows,
it means smaller milk produc
tion and correspondingly small
er profits.
Government tests conducted
(simultaneously, under identi
cal conditions, with ticky and
[tick-free herds show that ticks
reduce the milk flow from 18
j to -12 per cent, theexactamount
depending, of course, upon the
severity of the infestation.
Translate this statement into
[dollars and cents and the true
meaning of the tick to thedairy
industry becomes obvious.
Let us assume that a man
owns a herd of twenty cows,
each of which, under normal
conditions, yields eight quarts
ja day and that he can sell the
milk for five cents a quart. His
gross revenue then is $8 a day
from his herd. If a few ticks
| are allowed to feed upon his
|cows and their production is
I cut down 18 per cent, his gross
revenue is only $6.55 a day. If
leach cow is milked on an aver
age 200 days in the year, his
:annual gross revenue is lower
ed from $1,600 to $1,310. This
is the minimum loss from the
tick. If the infestation is very
heavy and the production low
ered 42 per cent the revenue
| is cut from $1,600 to $930—a
loss of $670 a year.
This is absolute; there is nu
[reduction in the cost or labor
of feeding to offset it. Neither
is it possible to overcome it by
increasing the amount of feed.
i“Cows carrying ticks,” says the
government report of the "tests,
"did not increase their flow of
milk when the feed was in
creased as did the tick-free
I cows.” In other words, the feed
went to the ticks and not to the
cows.
The practical experience of
i the people confirms the con
clusions of the government in
vestigators. In the tick-infested
section^ of the South dairying
is not an important industry.
The farmer may cling, if he
I wishes, to the delusion that the
tick is harmless on immune cat
tle. but he is not likely to put
his faith to the test by invest
ing in dairy cows. He knows
ifrom his own and from his nei
ghbors’ experience that they
will make little money for him.
On the other hand, where the
tick has been eradicated,dairy
ing is coming more and more
into favor. Silos are being built,
| pure-bred stock is being intro
duced, the herds are getting
better, they are being cared
for, and they are paying better.
