HENS ON EVERY FARM
The value of poultry in Arkansas
only averaged $9.60 for each farm,
according to the last United States
census, while the average value of
poultry slaughtered and sold from the
Iowa farms was $152. If every
farmer in Arkansas will try to raise
at least one hundred good hens dur
ing the coming year this will have a
great deal of effect towards increas
ing the value of poultry and building
up this industry.

We Have Been Very Dis
criminating in the Selection
of Pianos to Sell to YOU
Ever since 1853 we have been
buying and selling pianos. The
grandparents and great-grand
parents of many present-day
Little Rock citizens bought mu- %
sical instruments from us back
in the “fifties and sixties.”
The experience we have gained
proves to us that these pianos
are unsurpassed—Kimball Hol
lenberg, Hallet & Davis, Apol
lo, Hinze and Whitney—and so
we offer them to you with the
knowledge that they cannot
fail to please.

American in- e nniiy j
By c. n. noRiUSo \
In Puri il c dele rates u
it the peace conference have been
talking about the amount of
the German ind« unity, tie' si*e of tin
fine that should be asses eJ on Hue
land for its recent at to: pt to chain
the world down in links forged in Es
And from time to time romeone ha*
recalled that the Hun bad fixed t! >
amount to be colleen. -I from Ainork ,.
at $40,000,000,OuO. Tli. t 1 rig'.. , ■!
billion dollars.
Unlike the allied reace del rater
Germany was nev. r in a y doub. ab
how big a fi u r should he pair.
They h: 1 • iml-; .nity figures r’
worked cut fur the allied nations. A:
you can gamble that they would have
collected every .1 M ir, every .'ran
i nd ev<ry pound of the nr: net. t
Vour Hun was n v-r a e : l lift!
mild-mannered irresponsible when i
came to taking what he wanted. He
would have collected.
Thanks to the f,ee nations of to
earth, the Ilun is in no position t
make any d mauds In fact, so bud!,
was he battered in ihe process c:
whipping him lhat he is hardly wor;
ent time.
But consider. We have raised, nrt
to fhe Fifth Loan's b. ginning ab u
ip 18,000,000,000 In Liberty Loan fund:
Not quite half as much as tho i! "
would have assessed upon us had be
come to New York and \Vmb agita
to have received our : ub a . : ion.
And yet there : r sc ue lavender
blooded American., and a pood many
pro Germans living iu A : . i a '-vim
are yelping becau tl ey an b
asked to subscribe to another 1<- .
They don’t want to hear the wn
t lemionod, except in terms of re
preach nnd apology. Thee in * 'V i
that they will believe about the Hun
exc pt that he must have b. n i rribtj
lied aLout. But their main considera
tion is to keep fro.:; ub eribing a dol
lar to the Victory Liberty l»oan and
:h<«ir tongues are clacking very bo ’1;
at every opportunity to erfpp’" tl:
Victory issue in every possible wav.
word Victory is not
sweet upon their lips, unless
p' rchance it might be a G"r
man victory. The safety of th?ir
skins has always been paramount,
and their strongest interest in
life just now is to keep every dollar
in their purses. There is a sneer in
their ht arts, if not on their lips, when
they can see an American soldier.
If Germany had won this war—at
this very minute the wheat that is
stored in American elevators would
be going into the holds of vessels
bound for Hunland. Every warehouse
in this country would be emptying of
its raw materials.
In every bank German non-commis
sioned ofiicers would be making an
inventory of the vaults, the strong
boxes and the safety deposit boses.
German informers, the cattle who have
been among us for years, would be
marching up to the Hun conquerors
and “turning in” their neighbors, de
scribing just where valuables might
be found that would go to swell the
Ilun loot from America.
Gray clad soldiers would be going
from house to house and from farm
to farm satisfying themselves as to
what loot could be gathered up and
carried away. In every corner of the
country the graybacks of the kaiser
would be sucking the life-blood out of
the nation. And—if you are one cf
those pacifist souls who refuse to be
lieve anything like that could happen
anywhere—why then you had best talk
to some of the returned overseas men
who have seen what the Hun did to
northern France and Belgium.
With the Hun in Washington, our
mints would be working overtime
turning out the coins that Germans
were to carry back to Hunland. Our
ships would be seized and tied up at
the wharves to receive the loot. And
all over the nation there would be
blood and murder and fire and the roar
of detonating high explosive charges
r* uuiu U'ttVt* liUtUUlg OI
our industrial plants.
No homo would be safe, no woman
could call her soul her own. Every
where the fabric of civilization would
be smashed and torn Just as it was in
Belgium and France. We know what
the Ilun would do for we know what
he did do, what he has done.
This country would have been made
a place of despair and death. Lika
Poland, like Serbia, like Rumania and
Belgium and north France. We know
what the Hun did when he had the
power.
instead of the American soldier find
ing a country and a welcome he would
have found a grave in Europe or a life
of slavery under the bayonet of the
world conqueror. There would have
been no America left in the world foj
the survivors, only a German province
ruled over by a princeling.
Instead of the farmer selling hi3
hog£ for better than $20, his cattle
for a record price and his wheat for a
$2.2G per bushel guarantee, the man
of the farms would be lucky if he had
a barn standing or a hoof of live-stock
left in his fields.
These things must not be overlooked
when the government that saved as
from these things asks for a loan. We
must not look upon the war as a
chapter that has been read, as an in
cident that is forever closed. It is
all too near as yet and there is too
much trouble and unrest in the world
for us to be quite so tranquil and sure
of ourselves. There ought to be a lit
tle gratitude in our heaits.
