SAID UNCLE SILAS
“When I was young and full * of pep I
made pfenty of money and never had a* care.
I was as happy as a jay bird in a tree full of
doodle-bugs. Things changed as I grew
older.”
No doubt there was a change. There al
ways is. If you spend all as you go along you
are sure to find the going much rougher at the
very time when you are least able to stand it.
“Come easy, go easy” is alright so long as
things continue to come. After that, needy
and dependment old age stares you^ in the
face. Save a little as you go along an'd keep it
in our Bank. This is, the sure remedy.

“BIDDY” IS ADDING HER
PART to the WEALTH
OF ARKANSAS.
Farmers, business men and
bankers too often forget that
the hen and .her egg play an
important part in the ec
onomic welfare of both the
rural and city population.
Those who think of farming
are apt to visualize bales of
cotton, and carlotsu of hogs,
cattle, corn and wheat. The
hen seems to be a negligible
quantity.
But when the same farmers,
bankers and business men
know that the annual egg pro
duction of Arkansas is 30,
000,000 dozen and remember
the price that eggs are bring
ing on the market today, it is
enough to make them recog
nize that the universal “Bid
dy” and her egg are playing
their important part in ad
ding wealth to the state.
In the past, commission men
have been prejudiced against
Arkansas eggs because they
have been lacking in quality
But that sentiment is being
overthrown, for forces are at
work in the state to increase
the quality and quantity of
eggs in Arkansas to put them
up at a standard where they
will compete with eggs from
other states.
“Egg Circles” with Quality
as their slogan have been
formed in different sections
of Arkansas by the county
home demonstration agents,
working with the Agricultur
al Extension Division, Uni
versity of Arkansas and the
Federal government. These
egg circles are putting on cam
paigns for more standard
flocks: Standard bred roost
ers are taking the place of
the mongrel on many farms as
a result of the work of the
“Egg Circles.”
Perhaps the most notable
example of the work of the
‘“Egg Circles” is found with
the Harrisburg Egg Circle ip
Poinsett county. This “circle”
has been in operation two
years and they have succeed
ed in creating a demand for
their products because of the
high quality of the eggs and
poultry which they market.
