his bidding.
We cannO5 expect good times
to come until we work SIX days
in every week. | believe it IS
as much the duty Of man TO work
six days in every week as it is to
rest on the seventh. God helps
those who helps themselves, and
the farmer should not expect the
blessings of heaven until he
labors six days in every week in
every year.
One of the greatest impedi-
ments to farming in Arkansas is
the bad roads. Many farms, ten
and fifteen miles from the rail-
roads which will produce but
little co n and cotton, possesses
every element which nature de-
mlnds to grow the very finest
fruits. | have seen thousands of
acres Of land in North Arkansas
waich grow meager crops of
corn and cotton that will grow
the finest strawberries, peaches,
pears and grapes In the world,
b 1t owing to the bad roads their
crops if grown would be compar-
itavely worthless. With good
roads these farms which now
b ing no income to their owners
could soon be made to yield
profits, with intelligent manage
ment, which they could never
hope to realize from other pr d.
ucts. / see land here arol nd
Cave City which if you had a
good road from here to Batesville
could in a short time be made to
give clear profit Of from $50 to
500 per acre if planted in fruit.

been in every county in the state
but one, and ! am frank to say
| have not seen a moro favorable
section through which to build
a road that from Evening Shade

cd the material right az hand.
In your efforts to build this road
you are surpassi ing any other
section of the state. Even if
you do not accomplish all you
have hoped to, you will do good.
The question must be agitated,
and your efforts beieg directed in
an intelligent and systematic
manner will be taken up in other
parts Of the state.
