Once More the Cow Pea.

Those who are familiar with the COW pea rightly insist that it is not a crop that should be put on fairly rich soil, but that it should de used for it's legitimate purpose-that is as a soil reno- vator, says an authority on the subject. Neither is 1t intended that the crop should be continu- ed as part of the rotation after it has done it's work. After sev- eral crops of COW peas have SUD- piled the needed nitrogen to the soil, or partly so, then try and grow clover, particularly if you are north of the 41st degree of latitude. The clover is much bet ter crop for rotation than the COW peas if you can get the soil good enough to grow it. Remember also that the COW pea is a south- ern plant and that warm weather is needed to grow it properly hence not only must the planting be deferred until the ground IS warm, butth variety used should be the one which will mature in your climate. Consult seedmen's S catalogues and note this precau- tion. Try COW peas on that worn . out piece of ground, for it will pay in results for the labor you expend on it. But, and this is important, do not expect 8 single crop of COW peas piowed under to bring up 8 plot of ground that has been practically worthless for years.

 The statement further an- nounces suggestively: "This brief summing up of Judge Alton B. Parker's position on the eve of the presidential campaign has been prepared to show why his candidacy commands itself so strongly to democrats-radicals and conservatives alike-and in explanation of the fact that nine- tenths of the democrats in con- gress are heartily espousing his cause.'

NewOne in BOOtlegoing.

An entirely new and novel scheme of whisky peddling has just been discovered in the indian Territory, which seems to have been going on for som e months.
 Those lawbreakers travelled around over the country in an old wagon, drawn by poor span of Indian ponies and were pre- sumably buying eggs and poultry. They would sell small bottles of liquor to the farmers and Indians through the neighborhood, and S1 per pint was the usual price paid. The officers discovered that both axels of the wagon were of iron and very large. Upon investigation it was discovered that both axels were hollow and would hold four gallons each. The peddler would remove a small bolt and insert a small pump and draw the desired amount of whisky.
 One of the peddlers admits having sold in this way for the last five months and had made enough money to buy farm in Texas. He says he will serve his time in jail and then buy a farm.

HARD PROBLEM TO SOLVE
Is Why Parents Don't Have the
 Children in Sunday School.

Is Why Parents Don't Have the
 Children in Sunday School.
 There is no reason why all of the childen of the town and com~ munity should not be in attend ance regularly at one of tre two Sunday schools in Green Forest.
 It is a hard problem to solve why parents protesting to be Christians, many of them church members, are so neglectful of what they know to be the bestin-. terests of the children. They will permit them to go on the streets and seek any kind of association and acquire all kinds of bad habits, without exercising ap- parently the least restraint over them.
 There is not one-fourth of the children of the town in Sunday school regularly, and it is the parents to blame for it, nine cases out of ten. A child that cannot be made to mind sufficiently to be induced to go out to Sunday school to spend an hour on Sun day morning is 8 hopeless case and again the parents are to blame, as general thing, for the child has certainly been neglect ed in training.
 Children will not, as a general rule, have to be made to attend Sunday school after they have once become pupil and gotten interested in the work.
 Here is some food for thought for the parents of this community. Sins of omission are as bad as those of commission against the children and parents who are not working in the full discharge of their duties toward their children should ask themselves the ques- ton, Whither are our children drifting? And then answer as the conscience would dictate.
 Parents who do not look after their children with respect to their attendance upon church and Sunday school and their be- havior on such occasions are making mistakes that are almost crimes, sowing seeds the harvest from which will be bitter. You will reap what you SOW in such matters in what will seem 8 great ly multiplied form, for the boys who are permitted to choose their own company and exercise their own pleasure about going to public gatherings and behaving constitute the crowds that are constant menace at gatherings of people who are endeavoring to live right.
 If you are 8 parent and have a boy or girl or number of chil- dren you are doing them an irre- parable injury if you don't teach them by precept and example how to go to church and other public gatherings and behave themselves. Go with your child- ren to such places and see that they conduct themselves proper 1 ly. You are not living up to your duty if you don't go for your own benefit, hence your go- ing may serve double purpose.
 Let us have more children and more parents both ill our Sunday schools.

AT THE FAIR
Building Compares Favorab1y with Those of Older States.

6ulldIn9 compares FaVOraDI
 with Those of Older States.
 Ones imagination would be strained to the breaking point were he to attempt to conceive what the plateau of states at the Worlds Fair is by comparing it with the group of state bui ldings at former expositions, writes Worlds Fair correspondent of the Memphis Commericial- Ap- peal. It is a departure in exposi- tion building, and the result is that something immeasurably su- perior to that ever before pro- duced has been achi eyed.
 The Worlds Fair builders had pratically unlimited space to work with, as the grounds cover two square miles. The states, once they decided to participate in this greatest of all universal expositions, deter mined to make 8 showing commensura te with their practically unlimited re- sources. A total fund of S7 ,000,- GOO was placed at the disposal of the commissions of the states and territories.
 Heretofore the narrow bounda- ries and typographical formation of exposition sites have been such that the state buildings were necessarily convent onal. At St. Louis, on the great 1,240- acre tract, was such variety of land scape and so much room that every state could stake off just as much land as was necessary on which to erect it's Worlds Fair home, and erect thereon 8 build- ing typical of the state, and sur- round it with gardens and land- scape typical of itself.
 When the exposition formally opens, on April 30, and visitors from all sections and all lands as- semble at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, this plateau of states will be one of the surprises for even those who anticipate being surprised. Here is 8 constantly varying scene. Here are assem- bled specimens of the striking architecture of every section, from the cosy bungalow of some of the newer western states to to the palatial state houses of some of the older and more devel- oped states of the east and cen- tral west. There was no lack for room, and the spacious grounds surrounding each structure are typical of the building and the state it represents. The plateau is in that part of Forest Park that was formerly know as "The Will derness," and the impression the visitor receives is that city of wondrous beauty has been crea- ted in a forest.
 The visitor who halls from Ar kansas will have trouble in re- stra;ning his enthusiasm when he sees for the first time his own state building on the wonderful plateau. And this enthusiasm is warranted, for the structure is promptly recognized as a gem, even among it's worthy rivals on every side It is of modern style of architecture and yet retains the massive porticos of the colo nial times and the broad veranda of the southland. The large and graceful structure is built entire- lv of lumber from the Arkansas pineries, and the interior is ele- gantly finished with the hard kwoods of Arkansas so rich in nat ural resources. The building has been treated to numerous coats of white paint until it fairly glistens in the sunlight. Numer- ous large trees afford delightful shade to the verandas at either end of the building.
