Million a Day For
American Munitions
Europe’s purchases of war
materials in the United States
totaled $340,000,000 at the end
of the first 20 months of war.
Figures by the Bureau of For
eign and Domestic Commerce
show the heaviest month was
March last, when more than
$50,000,000 worth of munitions
left American ports. April to
tals have not been compiled.
Shipments of high explosive
shells and shrapnel are cross
ing the Atlantic now at the rate
of $1,000,000 worth daily and
vessels are carrying half a mil
lion dollars’ worth of powder
a day.
Fire arms and cartridgesval
ued at more than $5,000,000
went to Europe during March.
As the nations of Europe are
determined to invest all the
wealth they have in the busi
ness of wiping one another off
the map, we are glad they are
sending their money to Ameri
ca for the material todo it with.
President Mobley of the Ar
kansas Farmers Uinon believes
the farmers of Arkansas are
making good progress along
the line of “Safe and Sane
Farming.” in a recent address
to a farmers meeting he said:
“Not only are the farmers be
ginning to raise more food and
feed crops, but we have better
gardens, having discovered
that a garden ought to be
something more than a place
with a high fence around to
keep the women folks in and
the men folks out. The farmers
are taking their mules inside
and helping out their wives.
We are also beginning to raise
more poultry. A man had rath
er pick up an egg than hoe a
row of cotton. And while the
boll weevil scared us, we have
learned that a weevil never
milked a cow orsuckedanegg.”
Former Governor Geo. W.
Donaghey has announced that
he will be a candidate for
United States senator to suc
ceed Senator Joe T. Robinson.
In making his announcement,
Mr. Donaghey declares that
Senator Robinson cannot show
the people one single act in
the IS years of Senator Rob
inson’s service that has re
downded to the interests of
Arkansas, and says if he can
not do more in two years in
congress for Arkansas than
Senator Robinson has done in
18 years he will resign. Dona
ghey’s plain and outspoken
way of calling a spade a spade,
appeals to a great many peo
ple and his statement indicates
that he will make things rather
interesting for Senator Robin
son.
If Mr. Ford can find a cheap
substitute for gasoline that
will deliver the mileage, his
Presidential boom will take on
a little more speed.
It is so easy to criticise one’s'
neighbor who has gone wrong]
in morals, cr made a failure in
business, ’111(1 so hard to give
credit for the effect of the in
fluences of impelling him to j
disaster, over which he has no
control, that our criticism of
others is often very uncharit
able. Men often say how good
they would have been, or what
they would have accomplished
had they been in the other
man’s place. They do not stop
to ask why the fellow that was
in the other shoes did not suc
ceed. If they did they would
often find the man who went
wrong, or who failed, was en
titled to great credit for stand
ing up so bravely under forces
and burdens that might easily
have overthrown his accusers.
Sometimes the man who fails
is a greater hero than another
who wins.—Ex.
At Jonesboro last week,nine
men were sentenced to the
penitentiary for one year each
for selling whiskey. What’s
Jonesboro going to do with her
thirst while they are away?
A lot of people who congra
tulate you on your success do
not mean 't.
And the land of shamrocks
is still Irish.

Tablets for constipation. When the proper
dose is taken their action is so agreeable and so
natural that you do not realize that it is the effect
of a medicine. These tablets possess tonic proper

cured many cases of chronic constipation.

streets, for this is just as im

town. Tt is almost impossible
to travel over thisstreetwith an
empty wagon during wet wea
ther. Moreover it is washed
out and cut up into gulleys.Are
you going to do anything? If
not, step d >wn and out and let
some one have it that will take
an inti rest. Sulphur Rock has
been controlled by old men
long enough. The younger set
will strive for the advancement
ot our little city. We should
pull together, instead of pull
