Fathers money is all right and
mothers prayers are all right, but
it won't do to depend too much on
either. Fathers money will buy
you a farm Or set you up in bust
ness. 1t will also bail you out
when you get in trouble, but re-
mem Der it will not make people
think more of you. The boy who
has all the money he wants to
spend runs up against a hard pro-
position when be grows up and
his source of income fails. What
a fellow appreciates most is that
which he has worked hard for.
Don't depend too much on father
money or mothers prayers.

That. new heir to the Spanish

royal petticoats of Europe. but he
will miss lots of good things by

The first complete road census
ever taken in the United States
has just been completed by the
public road branch of the agricul-
tural department at Washington,
and shows that Arkansas has &c.
AS miles of public roads, of which
ISL are surfaced with gravel and
So miles with stone. 1t will be
seen from this that seven-tenths of
one per cent of the public roads of
the state have been improved. The
census also developed that little
more than two-thirds of mile of
road had been built for each square
mile of the states area, and that
there is one mile of road for every

The Sunday lid movement has
struck Little Rock, and, as in
many other places, there is a
tendency to overdo the thing.
The city fathers passed an ordi-
nance compelling the butcher
shops to close up on Sunday, and
now there is a movement on foot
to close the news stands, cigar
stands and soda fountains, and
even stop the street cars from run
ming on Sunday. The next thing
we know, some over Jealous lid
advocate will be trying to prohibit
man hugging the hired girl on
Sunday.

There is most gratifying spirit
of progressiveness among the
school districts of the county,
about one-third of them having
voted the seven. mill tax at the
recent school election. Too much
stress cannot be laid upon the i'm
portance of an efficient public
school system, and it should be
the constant endeavor of every
good citizen to do everything
possible to add to the efficiency of
the public schools, both as to
length of term and the class of in
structors employed.

36 inhabitants, and one mile of
improved roads for every 1851 of

that the south is taking the lead in

of having more miles of stone
finished roads than any other state
in the union.

The total amount of gold pro-
duced by the Yukon river territory
during the year 1906, according to
official reports, was $3.50, sos.
That is a goodly sum of the pre-
cious metal, but. as little as you
have perhaps thought about it, the
old hens of Arkansas are produc-
ing more money than the once
famous Yukon gold fields. A con-
sentative estimate of the value of
the poultry and eggs sold in Ar
kansas during the year 1906 is
something over six million dollars,
SO you see there are other and
more easier ways of making
money than hunting for gold
mines.

that he will not pardon any man

The journal has been trying for
a long time to convince the peo-
pie of Newark that the town needs
and should have a canning factory,
but there are some who seem
skeptical about the financial sue
cess of such an institution. To
those who are thus inclined we
commend the following from the
Paragould Soliphone: 1t has
been said by skeptics that the
Paragould Canning Factory would
be closed down this season, but
such is far from the truth and the
management is now making pre-
parations for the biggest run in
the history of this industry. The
farmers who tried tomato raising
last year as rule were satisfied
with the results, as they found
that more money could be made
with tomatoes than with cotton,
and prospects are very bright for
