Better to economize now
and have a surplus later, than
to need the surplus and not
have it. Economy is the watch
word. President Wilson urges
it and food experts tell us that
dire calamity will befall us if
we fail to heed the call.
According to the report of
S. M. Bone, government cotton
reporter for Independence
county, there was a total of
5,772 bales of cotton ginned in
this county pu to November 1,
as compared with a total of
10,365 bales ginned up to the
same date last year.
W. H. McKenzie, sev
eral years actual experi
ence in automobile re
pairing, is now located at
Sulphur Rock.
The price of meat is high,
and will be higher if the peo
ple throughout the country do
not raise more hogs for home
use and put up their meat and
lard. This is one of the easiest
things produced on the farm
and if the people of Arkansas
do not produce it they should
not grumble at high prices.
Men should not say more
about their neighbors in their
absence than they would say
to them if they were present.
This is safe from a standpoint
of future tranquility and it is
sound ethics. The same holds
true with writing communica
tions for publication. Whatever
cannot be said over your sig
nature should not be said at
all.
The old fashioned farmer
v, ho in years gone by came to
town with a face as long as
cotton platform and carrying
with it a frown that wouldn’t
come off, now comes to town
in a flivver or a Packard with
an air and a smile that means
unmistakable progress and
prosperity. The farmer of the
South is coming into his own
and he appreciate it andshows
it. And he will not misuse his
prosperity but will use it for
jho Kood of his country and
fellow man.
One way to conserve food in
this country would be to kill
several million worthless dogs.
We see a few in and around
Newark that seem to be of no
|value whatever, and generally
the fellow who is least able to
'keep a dog wants from one to
three. It is much better to give
the feed to a pig and some
chickens and get something in
return.
