That Counts
You don’t buy a wagon often,
and when you buy you want
one that will give you full val
ue for the money you invest.
The Birdsell Wagons
are the best made. They are
made for hard service and are
worth the money. Come and
look them over and get prices.

The farmers of the South are
confronted with a very peculiar
condition, financially. They have
made a big cotton crop, the big
gest in the history of the country,
and yet it will bring them about
$300,000,00(1 less money than last
year’s crop.
Last year’s crop of 12,000,000
bales brought the farmers about
one billion dollars. This year it is
j estimated that the crop will be
about 15,000,000 bales, and at
present prices it will bring the
farmers about $700,000,0000.
The crop was an expensive one
to make, and was grown by the
farmer with the expectation of
getting twelve to fifteen cents for
it. The result is, the farmer finds
that he has not more than paid the
expenses of making and gathering
the crop, and many of them, in
communities where the crop was
short, have not paid expenses.
We are more and more convinc
ed that the successful farmer of
the future will be the man who,
instead of spreading out over a
large area, reduces his acreage,
thus cutting down expenses, uses
, better methods of cultivation and
grows on one acre what he former
ly grew on three. It can be done.
I The cost of production will then
be less, and profits greater. When
this is done, low prices will not
hurt the farmer as they do now.
. ’-..
In the coming campaign let’s
see how the men who will have
authority over such matters, are
going to stand on the good roads
question when they get into office.
Properly speaking, elections are
only held for the purpose of allow
ing the people to choose their ser
vants for the performance of cer
tain duties. When you go to hire
, a man to work for you, you in
quire as to his ability to do your
work in the most satisfactory man
ner. Let’s see how the candidates
stand on all matters that affect the
common welfare, and exact some
pledges from them as to what
they are going to do after they
get the job.
The Journal hopes the teachers
of the county will take up the
Boys Corn Club movement with
the boys of their respective schools
this winter and get the boys inter
ested in the matter in time for
them to enter actively into the
work for next year. This is prov
ing a great educational work
among the boys where it is proper
ly handled, and it is not only edu
| cational but profitable. The teach
ers of the county can be a tremen
I dous power for good in this work
I if they will only make the proper
effort in getting an interest work
ed up among the boys.
Sam Holland, a farmer living
near Eureka Springs, planted four
1 acres of corn last spring and culti
I vated it according to the methods
I of improved farming advocated
by the government in the regular
farm demonstration work. This
' fall he gathered 520 bushels of
i corn from the four acres, or 130
bushels per acre. This is only
one of many instances where far
! mers have been richly rewarded
by adopting improved methods of
farming. Here is more food for
thought for those who killed the
demonstration work in this county.!

Rev. Frank Barrett, superin- j
, tendent of the Arkansas Anti-Sa- j
loon League, makes the positive |
announcement that the question
| of state-wide prohibition will be
j submitted to the voters of the
| state at the next election. Arkan
sas has witnessed some exciting
| campaigns, but it is very probable
; that for a real lively scrap, this
j one will surpass all others. The
liquor people are getting into the
game early and already the so
1 called Model License League is
i trying to line up the newspapers I
1 for local option. 1
The acts of the last legislature
can now be obtained in book form
in two volumes. The general acts
make a book of 624 pages, while
the special acts require a book of
1365 pages. The acts of the legis
lature of 1909, local and general,
cover 1240 pages. There is entire
ly too much local and special legis
lation in Arkansas, and it has be
come not only a nuisance but an
actual evil. Let’s pledge the legis
lative candidates against it.
Corn-raising contests are now
held each year in in creasing num
bers in many parts of the country.
In Missouri, sixty boys will attend
the course in agriculture at the
state university this winter, as a
result of the offer of scholarship
prizes by the railroads of that state
to the boys who should grow each
the best ten ears of corn in his
county.
Since 1891, when the first pen
sion law was passed in Arkansas,
the state has paid out, $3,914 215
in aiding the Confederate soldiers
of the state. Of this amount,
$381,725 has been spent in main
taining the Confederate Home at
Little Rock, and $3,552,480 to the
veterans and their widows in pen
sions. _______
Not many people are aware of
the fact, but Chas. P. Taft, broth
er of President Taft is one of the
largest cotton growers in the
country. He has a plantation near
Gregory, Tex., upon which he pro
duced this year 4,600 bales of cot
ton.

As Pat Columbus once said:
“Peace on earth; good will toward
men” and “love thy neighbor as—

repeal that?

iat, IWi family Tills for constipation.
MILD, GENTLE LAXATIVE
FOR WOMEN GIVEN FREE
So many of the Ills of women are due
to habitual constipation, probably be
cause of their false modesty on the sub
ject, that their attention cannot be too
strongly called to the importance of keep
ing the bowels open. It is always impor
tant to do that, regardless of the sex, but
it is especially important in women.
From the time the girl begins to men
struate until menstruation ceases she has
always vastly better prospects of coming
through healthy if she watches her bowel
movements. If you find yourself consti
pated. with bad breath, pimply complex
ion, headaches, belching gas and other
symptoms of indigestion and constipation,
take a small dose of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. It Is a woman’s favorite laxa
tive. You will find that you can do away
with salts, strong cathartics, etc., which
are entirely unsuited to woman's require
ments.
Mrs. Katherine Haborstroh of McKees
Rocks, Pa., and Mrs. A. K. Herrick of
Wheeler. Mich., who was almost para
lyzed in her stomach and bowels, are now
cured by the use of this remedy. A free
.• ample bottle can be obtained by address
ing Dr. Caldwell, and after you are con
\ inced of its merits buy it of your drug
gist at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle.
Dr, Caldwell does not feel that the
purchase of his remedy ends his obli
gation. He has specialized in stomach,
liver and bowel diseases for over forty
years and will be pleased to give the
reader any advice on the subject free
of charge All are welcome to write
him. Whether for the medical advice
or the free sample address him Dr.

The
Telephone
Don’t add to your troubles
the inconvenience of doing
without a Telephone.
There is no department of
business, professional or in
dustrial life in which it is not
an essential part.
No community, however
small, can enjoy the full ad
vantages of modern life with
out including the Telephone,
By its use to the needs of
humanity it has proved its
claims to rank as one of the
necessaries of life.
The farmer who wants to
make his farm more profit
able and life more pleasant
for his family should have a
Telephone in his home.
