PAGE STRESSES NEED
OF MORE LIVESTOCK
Sends Circular Letter to Farm
ers Pointing Out Advan
tages of Increase
John H. Page, state commis
sioner of agriculture, regards
livestock raising as the founda
tion of agricultural prosperity.
In a circular letter to the farm
ers, emphasizing the necessity
of increasing the livestock pro
duction of Arkansas, Mr. Page
said:
“I begun the work in 1912
by calling a meeting of the
livestock growers of the State
which brought into existence
the State Livestock Growers’
Association. From that meet
ing, an impetus to livestock
girowing was given which has
gathered in force until now
Arkanas has more than doubl
ed in number of pure-bred ani
mals. At that time, the banks
of the state were not taking
livestock securities for loans
except in iolated cases. Now
the bank regard livestock as
first-class secuity, and take it
readily.
--“During the last five years I
have made over 200 speeches
in Arkansas, in which I advo
; eated the growing of livestock,
and foretold the very condition
in regard to livestock that now
jconfronts us. Hundreds follow7
j ed my advice and made mon
ed by it. I advocated silos and
in two years the number of si
los was more than doubled.
During all that time I had but
little assistance along those
lines from any ource except
the stock raisers and the farm
ers. When the movement took
root others joined in, and now
the interest in better stock and
more stock is statewide.
“I am glad to see the activi
ty of all agencies aroused to the
importance of livestock. It is
no more importance to the
farmer now- than it has been
for the last five years, but it
is now of greater importance to
the country because the coun
try needs the meat. Prices are
good. Livestock is the foun
dation of good farming, and

improves the soil. I am glad
to note the proposed campaign
and hope it will produce great
results. Livestock has been
one of my hobbies and I want
to see the interest spread to
to every nook and corner. Give
ear and give heed to any move
ment in behalf of more live
stock. Livstock on the farm is
an assurance of success. I wel
come the assitance to the move
ment and trust it will receive
the co-operation of the people
everywhere.’

NURSE RISKS LIFE
Crosses River on Ice to Attend
Sick Child
Batesville , Jan. 20.—This
kind of weather calfs for sac
rifices of different kinds. One
of the most conspicuous in
stances that has been brought
to light was shown here re
cently. Miss Neva Cullins, a
trained nurse of Little Rock,
who has been visiting relatives
across White river a few miles
from Batesville was called by
Charlie Maxfield to come to
Batesville and attend the bed
side of his daughter who is
dangerously ill. The river was
frozen over and the ferryboat
could not be operated. Miss
Cullins walked about four mile*
to the river and found it fro
zen. She walked across and
landed safely on this side. Miss
Cullins did not know when she
started what minute the ice
might give way, and her cour
age is deserving of special com
mendation. Miss Cullins has
taken examination for the Red
Cross work and is waiting her
call by the government.

HE TOOK THE HINT
A young man of one of our
neighboring towns called on a
young lady for the evening,
and after arriving could find
no words to say. After sitting
for an hour he was given a
pencil and paper and these di
rections:
Draw nine ciphers; draw a
line down from the right hand
side of the first; up from the
right hand side of the fourth;
dowm from the right hand side
of the fifth cipher; up from
the right hand side of the sev
enth ; down from the right
hand side of the eighth cipher.
What did she tell him?

SUPPOSE IT WAR A FORD
“John you ought to get in
the aviation service,” a York
man told a negro. “You are a
good mechanic and would come
in handy in an airplane. How
would you like to fly in the
clouds a mile high and drop
a few bombs on the Germans.”
“I aint in no special hurry to
fly, Cap,” the negro answered.
“When we’s up bout a mile
high, s’pose de engine stopped
and de white man told me to
git out and crank ’er?”

MEL SALIVA
MAKES YO
SIGK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish
liver and you lose a
day’s work.
There’s no reason why a person should
take sickening, salivating calomel when
50 cents buys a large bottle of Dodson’s
Liver Tone—a perfect substitute for cal
omel.
It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which
will start your liver just as surely as
calomel, but it doesn’t make you sick and
can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson’s Liver Tone, because it is per
fectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. It is
mercury and attacks your bones. Take
a dose of nasty calomel today and you
will feel weak, sick and nauseated to
morrow. Don’t lose a day’s work. Take
a spoonful of Dodson’s Liver Tone in
stead anil you will wake up feeling great.
Xo more biliousness, constipation, slug
gishness, headache, coated tongue or sour
stomach. Your druggist says if you
don’t find Dodson’s Liver Tone acts bet
ter than horrible calomel your money In
waiting for you.

BIG CROP DRIVE
Hamp Williams federal food
administrator for Arkansas,
says a bigger campaign than
has ever before been under
taken in this state will be
launched soon for diversified
crops.
Every farm in Arkansas he
says must raise enough food
and feed products to care for
its own people and stock. No
farmer or planter must raise
just one exclusive crop. The
food question next year will
be more serious than ever be
fore.
