The human crank seldom starts
anything._
And in the meantime don’t for
get that the Arkansas State Fair
opens October 27.
It is a mighty hard matter to
stretch the truth far enough to
completely cover up a lie.
You are indirectly boosting
yourself when you boost New
ark. Its good work; keep it up.
The farmer who raises hogs
and a few beef steers will do
more than the tariff to reduce
the cost of living.—Commercial
Appeal.
If Secretary Bryan could per
suade the Mexicans to drink
nothing stronger than grape
juice, that might help some in
putting an end to their troubles.
Whew! Just as we were
thinking of buying a few pounds
of radium the price has advanc
ed again, and it is now quoted
on the market at fifty-two mil
lion dollars a pound. Beats the
duece don’t it?
The White County Fair at
Searcy last week was a big suc
cess. There is no reason why
Independence county should not
have a good fair. No county in
the state produces better or a
greater variety of products than
Independence. The only thing
we are short on is the push and
enterprise necessary to organize,
get together and have the fair.
Government officials estimate
that the damages caused by rats
in this country amount to be
tween $35,000,000 and $50,000,
000 a year. Rats are rather ex
pensive little animals to suppoit
How many do you keep up
around your place?
The position taken by the
State Fedation of Labor with
regard to the constitutionality of
the new liquor law doesent look
very good to us. The federation
has placed itself in an attitude
that will be very hard for it to
explain to some people.
The Evidence repeats that a
retailer who doesen’t advertise
will never be anything more than
a storekeeper. There can be no
progress in a merchandising busi
ness without advertising. The
real merchant is an advertiser.
He believes in it, because it
makes his business grow.
We need more cattle and more
cattle raisers in Independence
county, but in the streets of a
town is ajvery unsatisfactory and
unprofitable place to raise cattle.
We do not know of a single good
town anywhere where cattle and
other stock are permitted to have
free range on the streets.
The earnestness and zeal dis
played by our people in building
the good road leading out north
of Newark shows that we are
beginning to appreciate the val
ue of good roads. Some excell
ent work was done, the result of
which was to transform a very
bad road into one of the best
roads in the county. Such good
work is commendable, indeed,
and those who took an active
part in it cannot be given too
much praise.

You can have more fun in
youth by spending your money
now as fast as you make it; but
you can have more comfort
later in life by taking good care
of your money now and invest
ing it in a home, or in other
property that will yeild you an
income when you may be in need
of it. _
The model of the battleship
Arkansas will be on exhibition
at the Arkansas State Fair at
Hot Springs. The Arkansas is
the greatest fighting machine
afloat, and the model, which is
18 feet long, affords a splendid
idea of the mightiness of this
great craft whichbears the name
of our state.
The Journal is unable to see
where the new liquor law can
affect organized labor in any re
spect whatever. The laboring
people, or any one else, can ini
tiate any law they want, regard
less of the decision of the su
preme court on the new liquor
law. If the labor unions of the
state are in favor of saloons and
the liquor business, they should
come out openly and say so.
Newark is buying1 more cotton
selling more goods and making
more improvements now than it
has done at any time in its his
tory. The reason for this is ap
parent. It pays the price for
cotton, has the goods to sell and
all our citizens are putting forth
their very best efforts toward
making Newark a good town.
In some towns and communi
ties out in Kansas, sheer necessi
ty has compelled the people to
set aside certain days as “Thistle
Days,” in order to combat the
Canadian thistle. When it gets
a good start this is a most seri
ous pest in any community. It
is making its appearance in and
around Newark, and our people
should lose no time in extermin
ating it. ^
The whole philosophy of life,
to reduce it to a simple universal
principle, is work with God. That
applies to farming, house-build
ing, school teaching, engineering,
statesmanship and to every other
honorable calling in life, These
all have their l:-.wn and thev are
laws of God. You cannot build a
church or a character that will
endure without working with
God. Someone has said that the
secret of sueces in religious work
is to find God’s plan for your
generation and work with Him,
and we believe that to be true.
And the same rule applies to a
more or less extent to all other
worthy work.- North Arkansas

Each year every local paper
gives from $100 to $500 in free
advertising for the benefit of the
comunity in which it is located.
No other agency can or will do
this. The local editor in propor

his town than any other ten men
and in fairness man to man,
ought to be supported, not be

Now is the time to make sure
of a bumper crop of A1 corn for
1014. The labor involved in the
careful selecting of seed is the
most profitable and will bring
the surest returns of any labor
that can be performed by the
farmer. Don’t fail to look after
the selection of good seed for
next year’s crop.
The old-fashioned roller towel
is doomed because it is said to be
dangerous. But how about those
large healthy families that were
raised on the old roller towel that
served the whole family, and
was changed regularly every Sat
urday night? It was kept in
constant service and at the end
of the week it took an expert
to tell whether it was made of
cotton or real estate.
