The Profitable Farming cam
paign is going to be of trernend
uous help to the people in solving
their financial problems. It is go
ing to mean money for the farmer,
and for all the business interests of
the state.
Raising a sixty-two million dol
lar cotton crop in Arkansas and
then sending S'xty-three million
dollars to other states for the ne
cessities of life is not a money
making business and never will be.
Cotton has its place in the South,
and nearly every farmer will have
his cotton patch for years to come,
but depending upon cottoq for his
money or even a large part
of it will not bring wealth or higher
priced lands.
The only truly prosperous farm
ing sections in the United States
are tnose in which there are a di
versity of crops and plenty of live
stock and poultry. In Iowa land
has advanced from $5 and $ 10 per
acre to $1 50 and $200 per acre.*
because of diversified farming and
the raising of chickens, hogs dairy
cows and beef cattle.
Arkansas c*n do the same thing
that Iowa has done and do it better
because the soil in this state is just
as good and the climate is far su
perior. We can cut five c ops of
alfalfa a year in Arkansas, where
as the people of Iowa can cut only
three. We can raise more corn to
the acre than Iowa can. We can
get more from the land, and we
can get just as good prices for our
products by feeding them to live
stock.
We haven t got the markets that
Iowa has, but we will have just as
soon as diversified farming and
livestock raising are generally
practiced throughout the state
Guarantee the Magic Washing Stick.
The Magic Washing Stick is
guaranteed to save all washboard
labor on wash day, and to make the
clothes as white as snow. Con
tains no acid, alkali lye or poison of
any character and can be used with
perfect safety on the mostdelecate
fabric. Lifts the burden of work,
from the womenfolks. Price 25c
per box containing three Magic
Washing Sticks, enough for fifteen
big snowy white washings. Ask
grocer or druggist. A. B. Richards

Arkansas Largest Producer of Aluminum Ore
Arkansas is first among the
states in the production of two
minerals-bauxite and novaculite —
the former being the ore of alumi
num and the latter the source of
the larger part of the oilstones
produced in the United States.
The principal mineral product of
Arkansas, however, is coal, the an
nual value of which constituted
over 50 per cent of the State's to
tal. The total value of all the
mineral products of the state in
1913 was $6,780,760. according
to the United States Geological
Survey, compared with $6,258,
726 in 1912. The coal produc
tion was 2,234,107 short tons, val
ued at $3,923,701 in 1913,against
2.100.819 tons, valued at $3,
582,789, in 1912. The coals of
Arkansas are generally of high
grade, particularly in the eastern
part of the coal, field, where they
approach anthracite in character.
The semianthracite of Arksnsas is
an excellent domestic, fuel and
reaches markets as far north as
Kansas City.
Bauxite, from which aluminum
is derived, is second among the
mineral products of the state. It
is mined near Benton, in Saline
county, and in Pulaski county.
In 1913 the stone quarries of
the state furnished products val
ued at $525,050. exclusive of nc
vaculite and of limestone burne
for lime. In 1912 the quarry pro
ducts were valued at $513,844.
The clay working industries, while
not highly developed, take third
place and in 1913 produced an
output valued at $529,624, an in
crease of $67,019 over 19 li.
The sand and gravel pits yielded
$320,639 in 1913 and $393,639
in 1912. The only metalliferous
products of Arkansas besides baux
ite are lead, zinc, and managnifer
ous ores. Other commercial min
eral products are Fuller's earth
gems and precious stones, limes,
mineral waters, natural gas, phos
phate rock, and slate.

to-OperJtivt Farming'
In this age of co-operation, in
which manufacturing and commer
cial interests have attained won
derful development and success by
merging their resources, it is not
to be wondered at that co-ODera
tion has slowly but inevitably wen
ded i s wav into rural life. The
old method of individualism is
gradually giving away to the co
operative spirit and the result is a
great'y reduced cost of living and
lessened expense of farming.
Arkansasas farmers are leading
the co-operative movement and it
is gradually being extended into
every feature of community life.

A whole lot of married men re

Our idea of a glutton is a grown
man who can eat as much as a 10

The popular idea of economy is
to go without a lot of little things
we need so we can get one big thing
that we don't need.
Most self-made men are satis
fied with the job, but a self-made
woman never gets through putting
on the finishing touches.
A man will stand around and
brag that no woman can boss him.
and then the fathead will go and
get married.
You may tickle a mule's heels
and get away with it. But don't
monkey with a man who grins
when he gets mad.
The trouble with the fellow who

Imported Draft Dorses No Longer Necessary.
With the exception of a very lim
ited number from England, imper
tation into the United States of
pure bred draft horses for breeding
purposes has been practical'y
stopped by the outbreak of the Eu
ropean war. For several years
previous, from 2.500 to 4,000
| stallions and mares have been
brought annually into this country.
In the opinion of experts in ti e
United States Department of Agri
culture, however, the standard of
draft horses in America will not
suffer from the interruption of
these importations. There is, it is
said, a sufficiently large amount of
pure blood already in this country
to answer all requirements and the :
American draft horse will now have i
an opportunity to demonstrate its !
own qualities.

American Spenders.
Americans spend $20 for alco
holic liquors for every dollar that
buys tea and coffee. Our tobacco
costs five times as much as our
new churches. Every time we
give a dollar to heathens we hand
out a dollar and ten cents for chew
ing gum. Candy takes from our
! pockets two and one-half
| times as our medicines. We
Americans spend on an average of
' eight dollars a year for jewelry, it

Within a few months thousands
and thousands of Americans horses

galloping into the shrapnel and

they drag heavy artillery over the
half frozen roads or lying wounded,
helpless and dying on some French.

For, despite the peace talk, despite
the humane senti nent of our peo
ple and despite everything, train
load after trainload of American
horses are leaving Cii'.'>go every
day, for Canada, to be ship ,ed to
England. Other trains leave St.
Louis. Louisville and Kansas City,
daily for New Orleans, whence the
horses are shipped to France.
These horses are being bought now
today, in the rural districts of the
middlewest. as well as from the
ranges further west. Many a fam
ily pet will be bullet-shattered and
will die a lingering death in the cf Id
of the coming winter, for there are
no Red Cross societies to care for
wounded horses.

War is fought By Boys.
That war is fought by boys is a
familiar truth that we often forget.
But the records of our own civil
war prove it overwhelmingly. The
department rolls show that in the
great rebellion there were enlisted
in the army of the north 2.278,309
men. and of these _25 were 10
years old and younger. 225 12
years and under. 1.523 14 years
old and under, 81-4.891 16 yea s
and under. 1.151.438 1 8 years and
under. 2.159 798 21 and under
and 618.511 22 years and oyer.
Thus the average of the whole
army was 19.7 years. When war

FAVORS
when you have favors to extend, you hrd rather ac
commodate a neighbor who has ac sommodateo yo i in some
way. You naturally feel that you should favor tmse who
favor you.
Just so it is in business. The merchant will more
readily extend credit to the man whom he Knows spends
his cash with him.
Here at the bank we can always make a loan to a de
positor who we know will bring his deposits to us when he
has funds. Of course, we have to loan to others sometimes
in order to aet our money out. but we naturally would
rather favor with loans those who have favored us with
thei, deposits.
So it is a good plan to have banking connections with a
good strong bank. Make this your banking home. De
posit with us when vou can and when the time comes that
you need help you will find us able and willing to help you.
