Reform In Baline.

As several large gatherings of cot
ton farmers are set to come of soon
for the purpose Of getting together on
the best system Of storing and mar
keting cotton, we are Of the opinion
that the first step in reform is to de-
mand a more dense compact form and
better covering for bales. When we
sell cotton the weight of the net lint
only should be considered. We should
forget the bagging and ties and sell
lint cotton by taking the graft there
is in the question out OF the way alto
gether. Cotton yarn is sold in bales
the same as lint, but the actual net
yarn only In the bale enters into con-
sideration Cotton producers must
protect their lint cotton from the
weather, dirt, waste, CRIME and pilage
the same as the manufacturer pro-
tects the manufactured cotton goods
from the same loss. 1t is of little i'm
portance to the average cotton grow
err whether the round bale or the
smaller and more dense form OF
square bale takes the day so that he
rids the trade of its present great
loss as before named.-J. c. Stribling.

Cotton farmers will be pleased to
hear that an invention has recently
been made that will make cotton
stalks quite valuable A machine has
been constructed to separate the bark
from the wood pulp of the cotton
stalk. and this wood pulp will make a
good quality Of newspaper. This in.
yenti0n will make valuable farm
product tcotton stalks) that hereto
fore has had no commercial value. IL
has only been a few years since cot
ton seed have had a commercial yalu';,
and If cotton stalks can be made
equally as valuable, our farmers will
have great caHse TO rejoice.--G1athan'

Stick to one Breed.

The farmer who buys trio or
more of fowls in the fall will make
no mistake, and Ii he prefers to get
the eggs in the spring all will be
well, but he must expect to be ridi-
culed by some of his neighbors for
paying one or two dollars for male
or hen. Nevertheless, these same
farmers and neighbors will promptly
comeNforward and request to change
eggs" with him when they desire to
hatch chicks in the spring. If a
farmer buys eggs of the standard
breeds he buys stock, the eggs being
simply the embryo chicks The
farmer who desires to improve also
goes too far sometimes. Instead of
depending upon one breed he begins
with two or more. His interest will
be sufficiently strong for year or
more to keep his birds separate, but
in the course of time he will under
take to save labor by turning out all

LIVESTOCK ITEMS.

Stock should be fed d variety o.
food Many flocls and herds have t.
subsist almost entirely upon grain
foods the entire year, which is an in
1udicious mode OF feeding. Vegetables
either raw or cooked. or mixed with
ground grain, are excellent, but there
Is nothing equaling a liberal supply
of grain morning and night with
plenty of grass during the day, and
ii the pasture is supplied with mixed
heritage so much the better Variety
conduces to health and promotes
thrift
A sheep will not touch hay that other
stock has nosed over. They must eat
at the first table or not at ALL The
refuse from the sheep racks may be
thrown to the cattle, but 1t would be
useless to throw the stubs left in
the cattle managers to the sheep. SO
with the corn and oats; the sheep
do not like the grain the rats have
played over or the sparrows roasted
above the feed bins. The best corn
shelters have fan attachment that
of husks.
A variety Of food of any kind will
be preferred to one or two articles
regularly given. Cattle that are daily
allowed hay and grain, if permitted to
have access to wheat straw or corn
stalks will eat quite quantity Of
such materials, and if the straw or
corn fodder Is cut up and ground
grain added, even horses have been
known to thrive on such at all sea-
sons. Where a liberal supply OF
grain is allowed there is no risk in
Cured by feeding the coarse foods to
any class of stock, and it is an adj
vantage to do so in order to feed less
hay when the season has not been
favorable to grass and hay making.
Some horses will eat at all times
and consume almost any quantity OF
food without appearing to improve IL
condition, although they may be doing
not much work. Horses differ, and
what Is best for one may not give as
good results with others. Good groom
ing is an important matter, but there
is not, as a rule, sufficient variety
In the food of horses. While oats will
continue to be a standard food for
horses, yet a small allowance of lin
seed meal and corn fodder will also
be relished and give excellent results.
Hay and fodder should prove supe-
rior to hay alone.
A common fruit tree sprayer, such
as are used by orchardists, is much
more convenient way to destroy lice
on cattle than 1t Is to apply the rem
edy by hand. A hose with a fine
nozzle which will throw very me
spray is best, but its point should be
held close to the skin. Two or three
applications may be needed, as some
of the lice may be In the egg, and
not be destroyed by the frst applica-
ton.
Every country blacksmith includes
horseshoeing as part of his business,
but many of them do not understand
the conformation of the foot Of horse
and frequently do harm. Each foot
may require a special shoe, and there
are peculiarlties and individual traits
of horses which must be considered.

Harvest Home Service at Congregational
Church

The Congregational Church was
very handsomely decorated last Sunday
morning with products of the farm and
orchard. Perhaps it would be more
correct to say that the platform occu-
pied by the speaker Rev. w. N. Davis
was decorated. The custom of OBJ
serving one day in the autumn time,
some times called harvest festival,
seems to date back to pagan times,
when cultivation OF the soil was the
chief occupation of man. 1t was the
custom then to meet and reverently
return thanks to the gods for the
bountiful yield Of the fruits of the earth.
Later the custom was adopted by some
of the Christian nations, and in some
localities is yet regularly observed. 1t
is most fit and appropriate that man
should make some acknowledgment
OF his dependence. MI. DAVIS ser
mon was very appropriate to the oc-
casion. The good deeds that man
scatters along the pathway of life, like
the seed of the husbandman, will bear
fruit in the harvest time of old age.
In the morn and noontime of life SOW
the seed that will yield pure apples
of gold in the autumn time of life.
Mr.. DePeyter sang a solo at the
morning service and at the evening
service Miss Martha Kringle and Mr..
Hallett both rendered solos.
Because it has been deemed best
no service will be held at any OF the
churches next Sunday.

About Calls

There are many women who are
puzzled as to the length of time that
should elapse between calls. A first call
should be returned within two weeks,
but after that fornality there is no
specified time. Within two or three
months, at ones convenience, is cor
rect, but if calls are not exchanged at
least once year, the acquaintance is
said to be dropped. The older residents
Of a neighborhood are expected to call
on those lately moved into it, as the
newcomer can not and does not know
even the names Of her new neighbors.
She should return such calls within two
weeks, leaving a card of hers and her
husbands for each woman in the fam
lily and one of her husbands for each
Of the men Of the family. Then, if the
acquaintance is not found agreeable,
neither side calls again.

Three New Gases of Diphtheria

Because three new cases of diphtheria
had developed the first Of this week it
was decided to close the public school
until such time as the danger of a
further spread of the dangerous disease
is past.
Young Chapman, of whom mention
was made last week, has entirely re-
covered and was this week discharged
from quarantine. So far only one death
has resulted. The new cases, DR..
Hoxsey tells US are not Of a virulent
type. They are all girls, Matte Hood,
a step daughter Of Geo. Ingham and
the little daughter Of the Hamilton
family, living near the round house.
Mayor Sampson issued an order
under the advice of the board Of health
on Tuesday forbidding public meetings
of all kinds. Children will also be
kept of the street. Every effort is be-
ing made to stamp out the disease.

Brushes in the Kitchen

Use brushes instead of dishclothes
whenever you can in the kitchen, for
they are more sanitary and are more
easily kept clean. They also make
much of the work easier and keep ones
hands in better condition. A small
brush will be found better for cleaning
cut or pressed glass than a dishcloth,
for the bristles can clean the crevices
more thoroughly. A brush may also
be used for cleaning vegetables, for it
will clean them more thoroughly and
in half the time that it would take to
rub them with the hands. Potatoes
carrots, beets and such vegetables may
be rid entirely of dirt by scrubbing
them with brush.

Hemming a Plated Skirt

The home dressmaker is always dis
couraged when it comes to hemming a
plated skirt. The plaits, for some un-
known reason, take it into their heads
to hang at different lengths, SO that the
foot line when finished is bound to be
uneven. The best way to secure an
even edge is to haste the plaits full
length after the seams have been
stitched and the bands sewed and the
hooks and eyes put on. Then turn up
the hem as in a plain gored skirt and
press. After removing the hastings
turn the hem in the single material
according to the crease first made. A
skirt turned up in this way may easily
have the braid sewed on before the
hem is stitched. This does away with
all hard work and extra planning.

Uses for Sand Bags

A convenient addition TO a sewing
table are some small sand cushions.
Make them three or four inches square,
but do not fill them too full. Cover
them with scraps Of bright silk, ribbon,
or velvet. When cutting out garments
it will be found that they will save
much time and bother, because instead
of having to pin the pattern to the cloth
these handy little bags may be used as
weights, and the garment is not marred
by pinholes when this plan is used.
These bags will also keep the work
from slipping away and from blowing
about.-Chicago Tribune.

Side Closed Skirt in High Favor

The graceful side closing Of skirts is
in high favor. One particularly good
model has the front breadth laid in a
shallow box plat, one edge pressed
fatty, the other left loose and held
down by five or six large embroidered
buttons, set three inches apart.
The closing is under the buttons;
there is no fullness at the back; by the
aid of a seam in the middle it fits
easily.-Washington Times.

When cooking cabbage, ham, onions

strong odor; place a cup Of vinegar on
the stove near to where they are cook

Peach Crop Pays For Farm.

Many people around Green Forest have misgivings as to whether the Elberta peach indus try will pay.
 It seems the question has been pretty satisfactory settled in Washington county.
 Here is one instance reported by the Springdale News:
 Dr. M. Bowden, treasurer of the Peach Growers Exchange, has been settling up this week with the members for peaches shipped this season. The biggest check received by any individu- al grower was Jack Phillips, the amount being SS,810, which represented the sum received from peaches grown on fl acres of ground. Mir. Phillips estimates that after paying the expenses of pick ing, etc., he will have net profit of at least S7 ,000. He cleared up last year $6,000.
 About three months ago MT. Phillips purchased from w. H. Browning a peach orchard of fifteen acres adjoining his own orchard southwest of town, pay ing $500 for same. From this sea. sons crop alone he will receive more than enough to pay for the orchard.

 They will meet on the End and 4th Friday nights in each month.
 The "household" is composed of merry lot of guests who have started out with mu oh enthusiasm on the subject of Woodcr aft.
 The Columbian Woodmen is a beneficiary institution permitting it's members to carry from 5000 to S5000 life insurance benifit. In case of total disability for any cause the assuredis allowed to draw tenth of the amount of his insurance yearly for ten years. In case of loss of a limb or eye assured draws one half his policy in five equal yearly payments. In case of a broken limb he draws S200, which is not deducted from his policy.
 The order was founded in 1903. The present membership aggre- gates over 15000, operating in every state. The order now has surplus laid by of more than S1OO,OOO.
 The premiums are payable in monthly installments through the clerk of the local household.
