First Prepare soil by bedding out
the land deep with one of two-horse
plow, split the middle with shovel

burrows with point Of Dixie it YOU are

to plant by hand throw back with

amount of suano You expect to use,
say ten to eighteen inches in sin

Third, FertiliZing, 500 pounds cot
ton seed meal, 200 pounds kainit or
100 pounds acid, and 100 pounds nj
trate of soda, where you expect to
make fifty bushels Of corn per acre,
Fourth. How to cultivate and when
and how to put down gnano, and
Eplant. Plant about last of March and
let the corn stay there until it turns
yellow and then so around it with
point of Dixie with bar side to corn;
leave alone until it gets, say, ten
inches high and looking sick, then
take same plow and turn wing side
to corn, using only the point again:
this will put you we'll up in May, and
the month Of June, when the corn
will stand dirt from wing Of Dixie.
Put your euano in side furrows on
each side of corn, and plough ont mid
die at once, deep, and leave alone nm
til corn is little above knee high, and
then put down your nitrate of soda
by the corn and broadcast in peas.
say, half bushel per acre and plough

make corn and not stalks, and at the
same time leave your land in so TO

| l trust our planters will take some
Of their cotton land and plant in this
way. and raise more hog and hominy
at home. and while / am on this sub
iect, Mr.. Editor, I made statement
that l had $3.50 and had used less
than 100 bushels of corn instead Of
1000 as your paper showed it.
Now let us plant but a. big cotton
crop. Plant peanuts, chufas, pota-
toes, tobacco and all the peas that you
can harvest and stock for hay and
let's stop this shipment Of hay and
grain in to our bounds when half the
price is paid in freight. We grow
poor, the railroads grow rich. J.,
We can raise as good food crops
here as any other state, and better
mules and horses than any Of them.
Read, ponder and act, and the victory
is ours for IL 1-2 or Is cents cotton.
1t will be as any other set of men
OUTSIDE of the cotton fields may say.
We will be master of the situation
and not slaves. Yours truly,
R. c.. Commander.

There are certain nations that have
the quality OF vulgarity strongly IN the
blood, and indeed it seems to testify
to strong and full bIooded vitality, a
desire fol. self assertion, and thus we
may expect to find vulgarity DIGGING
like a SHADOW tie footsteps Of strong,
capable and pushing natjonalit!es. But
there are certain nations that have
been accused of many faults that yet
have never been accused of being vul-
gar. The Irish are case in point.
They have been accused of levity, Of
undue conyiviality. OF frivolity, OF a
tendency to romance. of Ilntrustworthi-
ness. of irresponsIbtIty, but they have
never been accused of yulgarity. There
les deep IN the Celtic temperament a
rich vein of emotion, strong relish for
the melancholy side OF life. 1t IS on this
that their Incompatible sense OF hurnor
is based, and it may be said that no
one who feels at home with melancholy,
who luSuriates in the strange contrast
between the possibilities and the per-
formances Of humanity. IS I'm any dan
ger of vulg1rity. for one of the essen
tial components of vulgarity is a com
placent self satisfaction, and IL man
is apt to dwell regretfully on what
might have been rather than cheerfully
upon what Is there is but little room for
complacency a &. Benson in Atlantic.

then the unscientific man triumphed

TO PREPARE FOR THE CAMPAIGN
Indications of Hot Fight Be- tween Democrats and Re-
 pubIicans This Fall

Little Rock, July ,. Announce ment was made today that meet ing of the Democratic state cen- tral committee will be called for the middle of July to make prep arations for vigorous campaign preceding the state and county election on the first Monday in September.
 This win be the first meeting of the new committee which was cre- ated at the state convention in Hot Springs June 6. The new chairman, John F. Rutherford, of Pine Bluff, will issue a call for a meeting soon. Secretary John H. Page states that the greater part of August will be devoted to cam paigning. The leading Democrat ic orators will be Governor Jeff Davis, Democratic nominee for United States senator; United States Senator Jas. P. Clarke and Congressman John $. Little, Dem ocratic nominee for governor.
 Indications are that the Repub- licans are planning to make their principal fight on the legislative ticket in an effort to prevent the election of Democratic nominees who will vote for Gov. Davis for senator. It Is announced that Secretary of the Treasury Leslie M. Shaw will make several speech es in the state in August for the Republicans.

CAN NOW LOCATE BLIND TIGERS
Act of Congress Enables State to Prosecute Persons Holding
 Government License

Near the close of the last Con- gress an act was passed which is of peculiar importance in Arkan sas because of existing state laws. The new law, which was approv- ed by President Roosevelt on June 21, will make it possible, 1t is claimed, for the state officers to force every person who has gov ernment liquor license in his pos session to pay fines or quit the business. This, it is expected, will drive out of business many blind tigers, the proprietors of which fear to risk prosecution at the hands of the federal government, and therefore pay the government tax.
 There is law in Arkansas which provides that the possession of a government liquor license shall be prima facie evidence that the hold CT is engaged in the business of selling liquor and he must pay the state license. In the past it has been impossible for the prose- cutting attorneys to take advantage of this law to any extent, as the internal revenue officers, under a rule of the department, have re- fused to disclose the names of the persons to whom government liq- our licenses have been issued. Attempts have been made several times to have the collector of in- ternal revenue to disclose the names of persons holding license, but without success.
 The new law passed by Congress removes every difficulty in the way of the state officers, as 1t forc- es the internal revenue collectors to display list of the persons who have paid the special tax and requires him to furnish a certified copy of the list when required to do SO. The new law is as follows:
 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress Assembled, That Chap ter 3 of the Revised Statutes of tue United States be and hereby is amended in section 3240, so as to read:
 Section 324o. Each collector of internal revenue shall, under regulations of the commissioner of internal revenue, place and ! keep conspicuously in his office, for public inspection, an alpha betical list of the names of all per sons who shall have paid special taxes within his district, and shall state thereon the time, place and business for which such special taxes have been paid, and upon of any prosecuting of fcer of any state, county or mn- he shall furnish certi- fled copy thereof, as of public record, for which fee of one dol lar for each 100 words, or fraction thereof, in the copy or copies so requested may be charged.
