Two Bits a Day Clubs.
Out in Phoenix, Ariz, a move
ment has been inaugurated for the
formation of Two Bits a Day"
clubs, the r mbers of wnich are to
buy a qu'iter's worth of Thrift
Stamps every day. Three men

Dasted rne stamp in each card, and
sold the entire lot before two
blocks had been covered.
"Two bits” is the old term,
dating back to the early days of the
country, for a quartet of a dollar,
and is still used in the South and
West. Every patriotic American
row wants “to do his bit;” the
members oc these clubs are carry

hoped that “Two Bits a Day'' clubs
will be formed all over + his country

Now is the time to take the nec
essary Drecautions to protect your'
land from loss of fertility due to
washing. Terracing al ways p: y i '
The broad bed terrace properly
constructed has been very effec
tive. With this kind of terrace
crops can be grown cn all land
while the terrace is inexpensive to
construct. If you have no terrac
ing to do. look aft°r the draining of
the land. This is also a good t me
to clean out and open up the ditch
es and. whenever necessary, pjt
tile drainage. Expert advice on
terracing and drain ng land can be
secured by writing to the Ext nsi .

Arkansas Needs A'ore Si eep.
Arkansas should have more
sheep, but undoubtedly the most]
sensible way for people to go into I
the business is to begin on a small I
scale. Keep only a few good ewes
to start with end be , ure to use on
ly a pure bred ram. Increase your
flock as your t me and conditions
will permit. At the same time
1<: arn h w to cars for your sheep
and get the most profit out of them.
Remember, the sheep business
cannot be learned in a day. It is
folly to mvest large amou ts of
money in sheep unt'l you .mow the
business
f rncrgcncy Rations ?(>r Vlfii. .
The equipment of no soldier is
complete without emergency food
rations. United States troops are
supplied with three different
parched maize-meal packets and
three chocolates. The former is a

could exist for days while hunting
or on the warpath.
