.. ^ aaaaaJAAA^AA44AA4AAA44A44AA4AAAAAAa1
WATCH THE ROADS
Spring rains arc hard on the
I country roads. Two-thirds of
the washouts and bad places
j COuld be prevented by a little
work at the right time. Do not
wait on the county officers to
find the washed place in the
road that passes your place. A
few minutes work will prob
ably save a great deal of time
and trouble lafte on. If every
body will take a little interest
in the road adjoining his farm
| it will help a great deal in
keeping it up.
I It will be well to look alter
; the ditches and crooks on your
place and clean out the trash
and limbs and make an easy
passage for the flood waters
to get away. A little work done
in cleaning the ditche3 and
creeks may save a good many
spoiled acres. Water will not
cut new channels if the old ones
are big enough and kept ready
for service.
FARMER’S CLUBS
Why not have a farmer’s
club in your neighborhood? A
specialist has been appointed
by the Extension Division to
help farmers in Arkansas or
ganize community clubs, and
for the most part they will
hold their meetings in the rural
school houses. Through these
clubs you can get together for
cooperative buying and selling
of livestock, shipping in of fer
tilizers, the formation of farm
loan associations and the mar
keting of perishable farm prod
ucts. Cooperation will do away
with many of the difficulties
•onfronting the farmers today.
If you need assistance or ad
vice, wri+e to W. C. Lasseter.

HAVE WINTER LAYING
HENS
Eggs always bring the best
prices during the winter
months. liens that lay at this
ime are he most desirable.
Pick out those you know have
been laying during the past
winter season and use them for
eggs to hatch. It is a mistake to
use the entire flock for breed
ing purposes. It always pays to
select the good layers. Use only
a young vigorous rooster in the
pens. Neve-* use under-sized,
coarse or over-fat birds of any
kind. Rem* mber, the pullets
and yearli ig hens are best for
fall and winter laying. Most
hens over a year old are not
profitable layers. Plan on hav
ing the birds which you wish to
keep for laying purposes hatch
as early as possible so thatthey
will start to lay before cold
w'eather. This is another impor
| tant factor if you wish to have
eggs when they bring the best
price.
_
MAKE A GARDEN
With all vegetables and food
products of every kind bringing
an exceptional price, why not
plan a garden for this year?
Let the girls join a canningclub
and get specific instructions
from one of the specialists with
the Extension Division of the
of the University of Arkansas
who will tell her what to plant,
when to plant, and help her
sell what she raises. This work
will be as profitable and prob
ably more pleasant than work
ing in the cotton fields.
SCIENTIFIC CORN
GROWERS
In 1916 a total of 88,103
acres of corn were planted witn
the best seed obtainable, and
cultivated according to the ad
vice of the county agents. The
result was 12% bushels of corn
per acre above the average foi
the state. This means that
scientific methods increasedthe
corn yield on these acres 1,
080,506 bushels which, if
worth only a dollar a bushel,
gave these farmers $1,080,506
for their efforts. Certainly it
pays to grow the best corn. If
seed must be bought, orders
should be given immediately.
There is an exceptional scar
city of good seed this year, un
doubtedly due to the prevailing
prices paid for feed. Remem
ber, it does not pay to plant in
ferior seed; also, that inferior
seed may give a good stand but
the yield will not be the best
possible. Far too many consider
seed good simply because it
will grow.
WINNERS OF PIG CLUB
CONTEST
During the Livestock Show
and Sale which was held in Lit
tle Rock on February 7, 8 and
9. a number of the members of
the Pig Clubs of the State en
tered pigs in the Pig Club con
test. Miss Elsie Davis of Har
risburg- exhibited the grand
champion pig and was given
first prize which is a $150.00
scholarship good at any agri
cultural school in the state
and given by the State Bank
ers’ Association.
safe farming pays
That safe farming pays in
Arkansas is the belief of the
county agents who report that
last year 1,008 farmers who
practiced safe farming paid off
the mortgages on their farms;
2.571 opened new bank ac
counts; 6,011 bought farms for
themselves, while 2,966 went
on a cash basis and declare
they will never buy anything
on credit again.

FOR OLD LOVE’S SAKE
I often think of days gone by,
I sometimes smile, I sometimes
sigh,
To think of friends, in days of
yore,
Whose faces bright 1 see no
more.
I think of friends and deeds so
kind.
Sweet mem’ries still pass thru
my mind;
And there’s one left to cheer
my life,
That is the one that’s now my
wife.
Long years ago, when we were
gay,
My thoughts were of her, night
and day;
And as my love for her did
grow,
I felt I could not let her go.
I loved that girl,—I love her
*yet—
I told her so. as oft we met;
I took her hands and held in
mine,
We made a vow—a vow divine.
In early spring, one Sunday
night,
Her loving eyes, they looked so
bright;
In that old house, now lone
some grown,
She told me there she’d be my
own.
So time passed on and life was
sweet,
Till winter came with snow
and sleet;
Amid that winter’schillybreath
United then, we were ’till
death.
Just twenty-six years passed
and gone,
We’ve battled hard—we’ll bat
tle on—
We’ve had our joys, we’ve had
our grief,
But still we love and that’s
relief.
A few more days perhaps we’ll
stay,
And then we’ll leave this house
of clay;
Our souls shall soar to God
above,
Where all is peace, and joy
and love.
B. F. CASH,
Newark, Ark., Feb. 19, 1917.
