Some things are very funny:
The rich think the poor are extrav
agant and the poor think the rich
are stingy.
There are some individauls in
this celebrated world whom you
just naturally despise. You can’t
tell why, but you despise them.
There is a reason for it— psycholo
gical or otherwise. One of the fel
lows who always arouses the ire
and disgust of the present writer is
the fellow who feels that it is per
sonal favor to him to be permitted
to speak to the common herd; who
walks down the street with his
head in the air as though the Lord
had conferred a great favor on the
rest of the population by moulding
him from superior clay. When a
guy like that comes around—in
sinuating in speech and mannet
that he is just a little above the
rest of us; that his blood is little
more purple than that of those to
whom he addresses himself—then
is when the present writer feels
like whistling for the Fool Killer
and worders why in the samhill he
doesn’t cornea-running.
DEFINING A CHRISTIAN.
Somehow or other President
Wilson's solution of the true
Christ:an strikes us as more Amer
ican than the definition used by
the Hon. Billy Sunday, who, next
to the president, is in the limelight
just now more than any other citi
zen of this well known country.
Sunday’s descriptions of what it
takes to be a Christian are grote
que, withal pictureque, and are
quite likely to be remembered by
pecple who read or hear them.
President Wilson’s characteriza
tions are academic, it is true, but
they are readable and hearable,
also, and sum, up to splendid ad
vantages, just what all of us be
lieve a man should be who profess
es to be what he wants us to think
he is.
The President declared in a
speech before a body of young men
the other day:
“1 have long ago received with
amiability, I hope, the professors of
all sorts and conditions of men.
But after I have heard their pro
fessions I wait patiently to see
their performance, and I do not
pass judgment until that perfor
mance.
"If a man wishes me to consider
him loyal, for example, 1 must real
ly trouble him to show his quality
when he is put to the test; and if
he cannot show his quality when
he is put to the test I may not say
anything the next time he comes
and around and professes his loy
alty, but 1 will do a lot of thinking.
I wonder within my own head if he
realiy thinks that 1 am deceived, if
he really thinks 1 am as innocent
as I look.
"That is the rigid and stern
standard to which we hold each
other, whether we realize it or not.
You know the slang expression, ‘he
is a bad actor.’ You are not speak
ing of the stage. You mean he
does not do what he says; and the
minute you find he does not do
what he says he will, then it is all
up so far as your trustfulness and
admiration and willing dealing with
him are concered.”
Can the Better Judge.
Lookers on many times see more
Ih&n the gamesters.—Uacou.
LESPEDEZA IS LEGUME
GROWN ON MANY SOILS
Steals Nitrogen From the Air and En
riches Soil—Nutritious and as a
Forage Plant It Is Unsurpassed.
Lespedeza or Japan clover is an an
nual plant, which begins growth early
In the spring and continues until killed
by frost. It is compartively slow ir.
growth and matures only one crop lr,
a season. It is a legume and like all
legumes has the power of taking nitro.
gen from the air and thereby enrich
ing the soil. As a pasture plant its
value is widespread throughout the
South. As a hay plant its value Is
only beginning to be realized, although
a considerable acreage is now being
harvested annually in southern Arkan
sas aud in several of the Southerr
slates. In nutritive and feeding value
the crop is known to compare well
with alfalfa.
Lespedeza grows on all types of
soils down to the poorest and is known
to withstand severe drouth. It is scat
tered along roadsides and In oastures,
and due to its reseeding habits, fre
quently enters into Bermuda pastures
of its own free will, thus making a
very desirable combination. As a hay
crop it is very well adapted to the
southern counties of the state, where
conditions of soil and climate are
.more favorable to its development.
The prinicipal limiting factor in the
production of hay is the moisture sup
ply. In a dry season the growth Is
comparatively light on poor soils. For
this reason bottom land soils which
have plenty of moisture will give best
results.
Lespedeza is usually sown in Feb
ruary or March on oats or wheat,
at the rate of 20-25 pounds to the
acre. The seeds are commonly sown
broadcast after the small grain Is up.
After the oats are harvested the
clover covers the ground and is ready
for harvest in September or October,
if provision is made to allow the crop
to reseed, the clover will produce an
other crop the following year. It is
frequently necessary to clip back the
weeds with the mowing machine in or
der to help the growing crop.
The average yield of Lespedeza
where grown for hay, ranges from one
to two tons per acre. Where the stand
is good, a ton of cured hay per acre
is figured for each six inches that the
mowing machine cuts. The reason
for this high weight is due to the low
moisture contents of the crop.

PEACH TREES YIELD COIN.
J. T. Elder of Nashville last year
netted $175 an acre from his peach
trees, according to the report of James
W. Clardy, special agent of the Farm
ers’ Co-operative Demonstration Work,
to C. W. Watson, state demonstration
agent of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Mr. Clardy said
that none of Elder’s neighbor fruit
growers came within half these ne.
figures. Mr. Elder attributed his suc
cess of last year to spraying and fer
tilizing with acid phosphate and mu
riate of potash. The formula can be
obtained from the office of the State
Demonstration Agent, Old State
House, Little Rock, free.
MANY VARIETIES OF TICKS
Only One of These, However, Is the
Texas Fever Tick.
Six common varieties of ticks thrive
in Arkansas. Only one of these, how
ever, 19 the Texas fever tick. The
other ticks may develop on rabbits,
squirrels, dogs, sheep and other farm
animals, and these parasites drop to
the ground during each period of
moult. If the fever ticks can be kept
off the animals in the summer months
they can be eradicated. All cattle in
each community should be dipped reg
ularly every three weeks.
Dipping does not Injure the quality
More Milk in Tick-Free Territory.
of the milk and it cleans the udder
of the cow. It does not cause a
shrinkage in the flow of milk if cows
are dipped early in the morning.
The arsenic solution does not always
kill the ticks immediately, and the en
gorged females may live for three or
four days. The dip is most effective
on young ticks, but regular dipping
will eradicate all Texas fever ticks,
it is practical to eradicate ticks from
' any part of the state, but it is best
to have four or more counties in a
group, because it is less expensive to
protect the counties from re-infection
by cattle straying fi-om infested coun
ties.
R. M. Gow, State Veterinarian.

The Most Extraordinary Moving Picture
Production of the Times
The Trey
O’ Hearts
If you’ve got a drop of red blood in your
veins—if your heart beats one bit faster to the
tune of romance—adventure—love and mys
tery-then you’ve something in store so far
ahead of anything you’ve ever seen that
you will never forget.
The Pictures The Universal Film Manufacturing Co., pro
— - nounced THE TREY O’ HEARTS the best
action story for film purposes they had seen in three years. They
backed up their judgment by putting the punch and $200,000
cash into a set of pictures that are more than remarkable—they’re
simply extraordinary. ,
Won ft Cost You One Red Penny You attend ,the
■ ' ■ movies —regular
ly. Instead of an ordinary film, you’ll see graphically pictured by
the best emotional actors and actresses in America—THE TREY
0’HEARTS — a pace maker in pictures. So it won’t cost you
a nickle more to see it
Mental Back Somersaults No matter how clever you
' can t fathom the plot of THE
TREY O’ HEARTS one inch ahead of the scene you’re viewing.
It keeps you turning mental back somersaults all the way.
Full Reel Action in Every Foot J.he Universal Film
— i ■ ... ■ r i Manufacturing Go.,
who are producing these films tell us that there is more action in
every foot of THE TREY O’ HEARTS than in a full reel of the
ordinary scenario. And they should know. Thousands of scenarios
go through their hands every year and .they're investing $200,000
in putting THE TREY O’ HEARTS on the screen. That’s back
ing judgment. And their success in the moving picture business tells
whether or not they know a good thing when they see it

DON'T MISS EITHER.
PEOPLE AND EVENTS
The discovery of a new slice of land
north of Siberia will materially in
crease the cold storage facilities of
Russia.
One of the finest tests of optical
nerve is to look a man straight in
the eye without blinking in the glare
of his diamond stickpin.
However, New York is cheered by
assurance of a substantial increase
in the lobster crop, exclusive of those
who broke into the Polo grounds.
Credit for originality, as well as
novelty, must be awarded Boston. The
city has entered suit for damages
against a contractor for failure to
complete a school building on contract
time.
The theory that indigestion is the
cause of .crime is now advanced in
print. The original author of the
theory advanced it by firing a slab
of hardshell pie at the cook. The
change denotes progress.
Aneke Jan’s heirs will have to
hurry. A descendant of old Pete Men
ult, who bought Manhattan island
with a string of beads, has put in a
claim for the whole property. His
claim will be adjudicated if the Gi- ■
ants win the world's pennant.
It is evident that Gov. Richard L*
Metcalfe of the Panama zone has
abandoned all hope of high office in
Nebraska. Otherwise he would not
permit his photograph adorned with
a plug hat to escape to the mainland
for publication. A creased felt does
not comport with the dignity of a
$12,000 salary.
No matter how doleful things may
appear, an Irishman finds some way
of driving a shaft of humor through
the gloom. Over in Belfast a Protest
ant baker who discarded orange-col
ored wrappers on loaves sold to Cath
olic customers has been charged with
disloyalty and boycotted by the Or
angemen.
During the <absence of the Bee’s po
etic editor fit the world’s series his
sub batted out of the St. Louis Globe
Democrat's box the poem, ‘‘Be a
Friend of Man,” credited to Dr.
Henry Kelrnan, which appeared in a
recent issue*. Both credit and caption
are a mistake. The lamented poetic
philosopher, Sum Walter Foss, wrote
the verses undrr the title, "The House
by the Side of the Road.”
THE GENTLE CYNIC
Every time a woman changes her
mind she also airs her views.
Experience teaches us the paradox
that the easy job is hard to got.
Suspicion always finds what it is
looking for df it looks long enough.
The fellow- who makes light of
everything wi 11 never set the world
on fire.
It is better-to share your Joyi. than
your sorrows. Incidentally it is also
much easier.
It isn’t until they fall off that some
peo pie know which side of the fence
th' y were on.
Honor and Justice.
A man’s vanity tells him what is
honor, a man's conscience what Is
Justice.—Landor.
