The high cost of living is one
thing the law of gravitation seems
to have no effect upon.
“A mob kills the wrong man,”
reads a recent newspaper headline.
That is what always happens
when a mob kills a man for it is
wrong for a mob to kill any man.
Before going into the ring the
prize fighter is always in the very
best ot condition and sure to win
over his opponent. Afterward he
has explanations to make that are
not exactly in harmony with his
former prophecies.
If we are to have larger crops,
better profits and a higher type of
rural citizenship it will be when
we have have a reading people
and a thinking citizenship. Begin
by placing good reading in your
home.- Farm and Ranch.
Recent statistics show that the
United States has the smallest
■tanding army of any nation that
is recognized as a World Power.
Russia heads the list with the
largest standing army, and the
United States takes eighth place.
But there is one thing about your
Unc’ Samuel—he can raise an ar
my quicker than any other nation
of the world.
The highest motives of a good
citizen are to serve his associates
and neighbors efficiently and well.
Not only should he do this in his
neighborhood associations, but his
business relations should reflect
the same motives and achieve the
same results. Good citizenship
means service in private life, in
public office and in businesss.
As a tax-payer it is to your per
sonal and individual interest that
the receipts and expenditures of
county, city and improvement dis
tricts be published. Even if you
don’t care to analyze or even read
the reports, the very fact that
they have to be published is what
is important to your interests.The
official who knows that every fi
nancial transaction of his office is
going to have to be published in
the newspaper of his county, is
going to be an economical, careful
and more efficient public servant

by law. Act No. 3 to be voted on
in September is the act that re
quires publicity in public affairs.
Every county in Arkansas ships
canned goods in by the carload,
and all classes of people, even
farmers, buy these goods and pay
out every year many dollars that
leave the state, in exchange for
canned goods that we ought to
1 grow and put up, in our own com
munity. When we buy canned
i fruits and vegetables we are send
\ ing money out of Arkansas that
we should keep at home. Enor
mous amounts of fruits and vege
tables are grown in Arkansas
every year, yet fully 90 per cent
of the canned goods of this kind
consumed in Arkansas are grown
and canned outside the state. We
pay for the products, pay for the
labor and expense of canning, pay
Making; a Good
Crop
H. E. HAWTHORNE
NEWARK. ARKANSAS
Is a very important matter with the farmer.
You cannot make a good crop without good
tools to work with, so it is VERY IMPOR TAN I"
that you equip yourself with plenty of GOOD
TOOLS if you expect to farm successfully. No
man ever made a success on the farm who did
not equip himself with the necessary tools and
implements for doing good work.
€J I have a complete line of the famous Moline
implements of all kinds, and it will pay you to
investigate the merits and the prices of these
implements. They are the latest improved,
are honestly built and are sold very reasonable.
€j[ Axes, Saws, Hatchets, Hammers, Holts,
Honkey-wrenches, Nails, Staples, Wire Fenc
ing, and all kinds of Hardware.
UHJ,
the freight and the jobber's com
mission, and all this money leaves
the state, while we allow enor
mous quantities of fruits and
vegetables to go to waste every
year. We need small canneries
scattered all over Arkansas to
take care of this sflaff and keep
! this money at home.

Newark is a good town and this
is a good community, but there is
| room for growth and improve
ment, and in the hands of our own
people who live here and own
property here, rests the destinies
of Newark and of this community
as a whole,and of we as individual
| citizens. We should be interested
in the work of helping to make
Newark grow and her trade terri
tory expand and prosper. Any
thing that helps the town in a
general way, helps every citizen
of the town either directly or in
directly. __
There is nothing like having
plenty of good reading matter it
| we are to develop the right sort
of boys and girls on the farm.
Again we say that every farmer
should buy $5 worth of papers
and $5 worth of books each year
for each horse he uses. Next time
| you find a fellow who “can’t af
■ ford” to spend $1 a year that is
! to say two cents a week—for a
! good paper to feed the minds of
his family, ask him to figure out
it he uoesn t spend more than that
for chewing tobacco—and possibly
for things worse than tobacco.
