What It Will Do:
It will remove all kinds of grease and oil spots from
every variety of wearing app irel such as coats, pants,
dress goods, also carpets, rugs, etc . without injury to
to the finest silks or laces. It will shampoo like a
charm raising the lather in proportion to the amount
of dandruff and grease in the hair. A cloth wet with
it will remove all grease from the door knobs, window
sills, etc. handled by housekeepers on their daily rou
tine of kitchen work. Its chemical action is such
that it will turn any oil or gr ease into soap, which is
easily washed out with clear, cold water. For clean
ing silver, brass and copper ware it can't be excelled,
it is a certain way to exterminate bed bugs, for they
will not stop after they have encountered the cleanser

announcement of Judge James M.
Barker as a candidate for reelection
as Chancellor of the Seventh Dis
trict composed of Union. Ouachita.
, Caihoun. Colombia. Lafayette and
Dallas counties.
Judge Barker is now serving his
first term in this office and believes
in the Democratic principle of a
second term to those that faithfully
perform their duty and none can
say that he has failed to do his
since assuming this office.
He is an able and concientious
jurist with the ability and know
ledge of the law necessary to ren
der just decisions in the compli
cated cases tried in his court. As
a proof that he has these qualifica
tions is the fact that the Supreme
court reverses him less than any
Chancellor in the state.
Judge Barker's private life and
character is above reproach, he is
honr st agai' st everyinfluenca.faith
ful to the people and held in high
esteem by all who know him and
his record as Chancellor is one that
the people of the district should be
and are proud of. He will appre
ciate your support and in return
giye you continued faithful service.

Pointers Abo.it Cover Crops.
What is a cover crop? A cover
crop is a crop of grass that will
grow during the late fall, winter
and early spring, and cover the
land and keep the rains from wash
ing the soil and leaching of the
same, and exhausting the plant
food contained in the soil. A cov
er crop is a good thing, and will pay
well as a protection to the land.
However, a good cover crop will
pay well as pasturage grass and
servetwo purposes. 1 have been urg
ing the farmers to look after their
grass and hay crops this year. You
may have done so. If you have you
are fortunate, for hav goes a long
way as feed, and feed is going to b
high next year. Arkansas prairie
hav is quoted on the m ok't now
at $10 per ton: Oklahoma prairie
hay at $17: alfalfa at $'9 and
wheat bran and corn chops at from
$29 to $33 per ton So the hay
crop has been and is an important
one in Arkansas. I hope the farm
ersof A. kansas have saved good hay
crops and will have feed for their
stock. It certainly is hard on a
cotton rarer to have to give up
part of the money made in raising
i cotton for hay and stock food, be
j cause he will be paying more th.r
; it would have cost him to raise it
j But cotton has a hold on the peo
j pie and it is hard to break it loose.
As to a cover crop, it will b?
needed for the stock this winter.
i There are several good cover crops.
Bur clover is one of the b»st. it
mixes well with bermuda/and will
die out irrthe spring about the time
the latter comes out strong, thus
making by this combination almost
a continuous pasture. Crimstin
clover and vetch are fine. 7'he
latter makes a better cover crop
and the former makes a better
winter pasture and soil builder.
Rye makes a good cover crop and
winter pasture. Rape makes a
good winter pasture for hogs, but
is not a legume and does not store
nitrogen like the others. Let me
urge you to try some of these
winter crops, and give the hogs,
cattle and other stock the benefit.
Good pastures, hay crops, forage
and live stock pay far better than
raising cotton or any other staple
crop, and will in addition build up
the soil on the farm and make good
farms out of bad ones. You can
! plant rye. bur clover or vetch be
| tween the cotton rows and make a
good winter pasture aid cover
crop. Of course it is better to
properly prepare a seed bed and
sow it in the open, and would give
you better results.
1 hope the Arkansas farmers will
give attention to alfalfa this season.
It will grow in almost any of the
soils we have. Prepare the land
l well and sow plenty of seed. Al
falfa will produce better results
than any other crop w** can grow
in the State. I hope you will m ke
an extra effor* to get a start, if it
is not more than an acre.
Begin early this fill to prepare
for next year's crops. Get your
land in shape to break this fall, and
when you break your land, try
plowing it about two inches deeper
than it was plowed last year. It
will make a good bed for holding
moisture next year.
