Uric Ada:
Ever since the discovery of Schcele in
1775 that uric acid was found within the
body—most eminent physicians agree
that rheumatism is caused by it; also
many distressing symptoms as head
ache, pain in bn.k, stomach distress,
Bwollen feet and ankles, gout, etc.
It was Dr. IT of the Invalids’Hotel,
Buffalo,N.Y., who < . >v r. 1 a now agent

PLANS FOR SPRING CROPS
Every paying business is
built on well laid plans,and the
business of farming must also
be planned weeks ahead if we
are to get the best results when
this season opens up. Now is
the time to decide whether
some of the unproductive pat
ches cannot be put to grass for
permanent pastures and, when
ever possible, plan to seed Ber
muda, orchard grass,blue grass
or Lespedeza. Do not forget
the patch of rape for the pigs
and use more peas and peanuts
for hay and feed and tor their
fertilizing valu(i this year than
you did last. Remember, it is
cheaper to raise leguminous
crops than to buy fertilizers.
They supply nitrogen and or
ganic matter it turned under
in whole or in part. 1 his is a
good tim • to split enough wood
for cooking to last all summer.
Get this job out of the way.
THE GARDEN
No other equal area on the
j i arm is of so great importance.
See that the fence is in good
shape and if the garden is not
big enough to use a horse to
cultivate with, it would be a
good plan to lengthen it since
horse cultivation saves time
and makes the work easier.
The real garden should be lo
cated as near the house,as pos
sible for convenience and a
good garden can be made on a
great variety of soils if plenty
of manure is used and if cul
tivated frequently. Every far
mer should make a special ef
fort during 11*17 to supply his
table with fresh vegetables
which have been grown at
home. By making successive
plantings of the different vege
tables, a fresh supply can be
had during the greater part of
the year in Arkansas.Too much
meat and not'enough vegetables
is said by our medical men to
be the cause of more than one
half of our diseases. Supply the
family with more vegetables
and they will feel better and
can do better work. This will
not only cut the grocery bill
but will be a great help all
around. If you do not have
your garden seed, get your
catalog down right away and
plan to buy in bulk with your
neighbors instead of buying the
small packages.

COUNTY JUDGES ASKED,TO
SELECT DELEGATES
Dr. R. M. Gow, Secretary of
the Arkansas Livestock Grow
ers’ Association, recently sent
a letter to all the county judges
in the state asking them to get
in touch with at least ten rep
resentatives men who would
take the time to come to the
livestock meeting in Little Rock
on February 7, 8 and 9 for the
purpose of studying the types
and breeds of cattle and hogs
which will be on exhibit at that
time. Dr. Gow is of the opinion
that all progressive farmers
who ar? interested in better
livestock can get much valu
able information, not only by
studying the types and breeds
represented but by taking part
in the discussions which will
be lead by men with national
reputation as breeders or feed
ers on the subjects of breed
ing, feeding and general man
agement of livestock.
MORE LIVESTOCK
It is encouarging to note from
a recent report made by the
United States department of
agriculture that the value of
livestock on farms in theSouth
west has increased during re
cent years.This is an indication
of progress in farming. And
doubtless it will mean larger
crops and better profits on
crops.
There is no better way of in
creasing the wealth of our
farms than in increasing the
number and the quality of live
stock. Animals are bringing
good prices with prospects for
better prices. As land increases
in value and the number of
acres in pasture is reduced the
farms, rather than large ranch
ers, must supply more beef cat
tle which the consumers of the
country will require.
HAVE SOIL TESTED
Arkansas farmers should
have their soil tested in the
fields upon which they expect
to put fertilizers this year.Now
is a good time to gather the
samples so that there will be
no delay in getting a report be
fore preparation for spring
work begins. The soils labora
tory at the College of Agricul
tural Experiment Station of the
University of Arkansas which
was established during the past
year makes it possible for all
farmers to have their soil ex
amined free of charge.
Farmers who desire to send
[samples to the laboratory7
[should be very careful inspect
ing these samples in order that
they will represent in general
the soils to be found on the
farm and will cover large
areas. In selecting these sam
ples, do not take quantities of
soil from the best spot on the
farm nor from the poorest, but
endeavor to make the samples
represent the average condi
tions. A good way to get an
average sample of soil is to go
into the field when the soil is
not too wet to plow and take
out a narrow strip of soil, dig
ging down about six inches.Dig
straight down so the quantity
of soil taken from the sixth
inch will be about the same as
taken from the surface. These
samples should be placed in a
clean dry pail and mixed thor
oughly. After the samples have
been mixed, a pound should be
weighed out and placed in a
clean cloth sack and allowed to
dry. When this sack of dirt is
dry, it should be sent by parcel
post to the Department of Ag
ronomy. Agricultural Experi
ment Station, Fayetteville,Ark.
The owner’s name and ad
dress should be placed on each
package of roil sent in. If more
than one sample is sent, each
should be given a number and
a record kept of these numbers.
A letter should follow the soil
sent in, giving' the following
information coneerningthe land
from which the soil is taken;
name of the township, the
range, the section and the
quarter section. It should also
give th'3 approximate number
of years the land has been in
cultivation, the crops that have
been grown on the land from
which the soil was taken and
the approximate yields of the
various crops grown.

JACKSON COUNTY
POLITICS SIMMERING
Newport. Jan. 29.—Owing
to the primary elections in this
State being held so far ahead
of the general election, and the
further fact that a Democratic
nomination is equivalent to an
election, Jackson county is sel
dom without its crop of candi
dates. Now, just as a new set
of county officials are getting
into the routine of their various
offices, politics begins to sim
mer again and prospective ean
didat s for office at the next
election are beginning to make
their wants known. Charles Tc.
Coe of Tuckerman is the latest
aspirant for political honors,
having announced his intention
of being a candidate for county
treasurer in next winter’s cam
paign.

embarrassed way for a moment
and then said to the barber:
“Jim, you was ingaiged to

“You mean I is engaged to
her,” was the pompous reply.
“But Linda has sent word.”
“Oh, she has? Does she dun
want de marriage hurried up?”
“No, sah; she dun wants you
