GOVERNOR OF KANSAS '
TELLS OF PROHIBITION
State-wide Prohibition in Force
In Kansas 34 Years and is
Growir g ,‘n Favor
Arthur T. Capper, governor
of Kansas, in a recent issue of
Bryan’s Commoner, says:
“One of the greatest bless
ings ever bestowed upon the
people of this state, and the
law which is doing more to
make good men and women
and to bring prosperity and
happiness to the people ofKan
sas, is the amendment to the
constitution prohibiting the
traffic in intoxicating liquor.
“Prohibition has been on
trial in Kansas for thirty-four
years—a sufficient length of j
time to give adequate evidence
of its merits and demerits. \nd
at the end of nearly a genera
tion under prohibition it ma.v
be truthfully said that the pro- j
hibrtory law was never so well
enforced as now and never so j
generally approved by the peo
ple of the state. Approval in
deed, is too mild a word to ex
press the attitude of Kansas,
people toward this provision
of the state constitution. Nine
tenths of them are enthusias
tically in favor of it. It is the
portion of the fundamental law ;
of the state that is nearest to
their hearts.
"In short, prohibition is an
unqualified success in Kansas
and our people would not think
for one moment of going back j
to the saloon.”

SAVE YOUR IRISH SEED
POTATOES
J. S. Knox, Horticulturist for
the Extension Division, Fay
etteville, says, “Every farmer
should save his own seed po
tatoes because everything indi
cates that. Irish potatoes for
next spring’s planting will cost
from $3 to $3.50 per bushel.” j
It will, therefore, be a good
idea for our farmers who have j
a late crop of potatoes on hand
to reserve enough of them fori
spring planting. There is a
large acreage of late potatoes
in some counties of the state
and if the growers will store
them carefully so that they will
keep well, they will undoubt
edly bring exceptional prices
at planting time next spring.
FARM DRAINAGE A PAY

VALUABLE BULLETIN ON
COTTONSEED READY
FOR DISTRIBU
TION
A valuable bulletin on the
changes in cotton seed during
storage is available for every
farmer and mill man in the
state who handles seed. This
bulletin has been written by J.
B. Rather, Chemist with the
State Experiment Station at
Fayetteville. At this particular
time, cotton seed oil mill men
and farmers should be interest
ed in the information which
this bulletin contains.
It is a well known fact that
cotton seed mill men wish to
produce maximum quantity
of oil of the best quality from
a given amount of seed. In
storage it is a common know
ledge that cotton seed will
“heat” and deteriorate under
certain conditions. Decomposi
tion sets up and fatty acids are
farmed which diminish the
quality of oil which can be pro
duced. Farmers, ginners and
oil mill men who are holding
seed at this time must remem
ber that if the seed heat badly
in storage depreciation will
take place even to the extent
>f charring will take place and
as a result will produce an in
ferior product.
Residents of the state who
kvish to avail themselves of the
information contained in this
bulletin should write to the
Agricultural Experiment Sta
:ion at Fayetteville.

HEAVY SHORTAGE IN
CROP PRODUCTION
The farm crops of the coun
try, based on the department
)f agriculture’s October report,
ihow a decline of over 1,110,
1)00,000 bushels of grain, 63,
000,000 bushels of potatoes,
26,000,000 bush ds of peaches
and 10,000,000 barrels of ap
ples.
The wheat crop is the small
est since 1904, though our pop
ulation has grown approxima
in competition with home con
sumers.
Not many years ago we im
ported a few cargoes of Ar
gentine corn, but now, for the
first time, we are looking to
that country for wheat, and a
cargo is now on the way to this
country.
ith a decrease of over
100.000. 000 bushels of wheat,
337.000. 000 bushels of corn,
311.000. 000 bushels of oats
and 63,000,000 bushels of po
tatoes, exorbitant prices for
foodstuffs are absolutely cer
tain. and there is no power in
government to change the ef
:ect of the law of supply and
iemand.
3IG INCREASE IN
AUTO LICENSES
A 100 per cent increase in
lutomobiles owned in Arkan
sas in 11)16 over 1915 is not im
)robable, according- to report
>f the state auto license col
ector. Last year 8,532 licenses
vere issued, while up to Nov
mber 1 of this year 15.282
uid been issued, and appiica
ions for license are being made

TWO SISTERS PERISH

Escape From Flames in
Which Two Perish
Fayetteville, Nov.6.—Myrtle
Brink, 19, and Opal Brink, 13,
daughters of Mr. and Mrs. W.
H. Brink, were burned to death
in the home of their parents
about two miles south of Fay
etteville early this morning.
The bodies were charred be
yond any hope of recognition.
The fire was first discovered
between 4 and 5 o’clock, and
by that time the entire house
was aflame. Mrs. Brink and
four sons—Orville, 12; Elden,
8; Raymond, 5 and Jack* 2—
escaped unhurt. Another
daughter, Esther, 16, was not
at home at the time of the fire,
having spent the night in the
home of the Rev. J. W. Stock
burger, nearby. For the past
several months Mr. Brink has
been in the employ of the Fris
co at Fort Smith. He arrived
here this morning after being
notified of the tragedy.
COTTON SEED MAKE
FINE SCARF PIN
Those who are not satisfied
with Arkansas diamonds or
Arkansas pearls for scarf pins,
might be willing to accept the
next most valuable thing, and
that is Arkansas cotton seed.
Tom Branch, manager of the
Des Arc Cotton Oil Mills, has
had a large number of scarf
pins made with cotton seed
settings, and is giving them to
his friends as valuable relics
of the 191b season which has
established a record for cotton
and its products. He says thai
he does not know anything
more valuable at this time than
cotton seed at $60 a ton. And
twenty five years ago gins
paid haulers to take it away
and dump it into the nearest
creek.

CALOMEL? HORRIBLE!
Calomel is quicksilver and acts
like dynamite on
your liver.
Calomel loses you a day! You know
[ what, calomel h. It’s mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamiter,
I cramping and sick ning you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
W hen you feel bilious, sluggish, con
stipated and all knocked out and believe
; you need a dose of dangerous calomel just
i remember that your druggist sells for
j 50 cents a large bottle of Dodson’s Liver
Tone, which is entirely vegetable and
pleasant to take and is a perfect substi
tute for calomel. It is guaranteed to
Btart your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can not salivate.
Don t take calomel! It makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a day’s
work. Dodson’s Liver Tone straightens
you right up and you feel great. Give
it to the children because it is perfectly
harmless and doesn’t gripe.
