MR. BRYAN will not permit corporation money to be used in his campaign. He evidently thinks its tainted. What could we do without corporations? ? They have cheapened nearly everything that working man uses, and have made railroad travel less expensive than walk ing, to say nothing of the time saved. The majority of our corporations are too vast to allow one man to own or manage them. The task would wreck the average mind, and the Napoleon who could run them would not last long under the strain that would necessarily be put upon him to properly conduct them. We cannot do without corpora tions.

CANNING SEASON IS ON
Factory Starts Off with Only
 Fair Business Prospects

There is always something do- ing in Green Forest when our can- ming factory is in operation, and a new lease of life in a business way has been taken on since the wheels of this big enterprise began to turn last week.
 The peach crop will furnish enough business to keep the plant going most of the time until tomatoes begin to come in. The crop situation as we'll as market conditions are greatly removed from what they were last season, and it remains to be seen whether this years opera ton of the factory will be an all-round profitable one.
 Last year the fruit crop of the United States was limited to the extent that there was a good market afforded for everything g the cannery put up. The crops were good locally, hence the profit was great.
 This year the crop at home, with the exception of tomatoes which at this time bids fair to be fine, is very short and of poor quality. Apples are of almost of minus quantity, while peaches are scattering and the quality ranks poor, as related to budded varities. The seedlings promise a fair yield and it appears that the fruit will be good.
 The worst feature of the whole business is the market condi ton on canned goods. Quotations up to this time indicate that prices on this class of fruits will be so low as to render it impossible for much profit to be made by the factory. The prices to be paid the producers for tomatoes will nevertheless be good, as the factory is under contract to pay a price which will undoubtedly afford the growers good profit indeed if the present outlook for a big yield is not deceiving.
 At any rate we hope to see this great hive of industry down to business for three or four months employing a full com plement of hands. This will mean the distributions of many thousands of dollars in a manner that will bring great good to the community.

 "Logic?" said the old man i; "what is that?''
 "It is the art of reasoning, said the son.
 "The art of reasoning" said the father, "what is that, my boy?"
 "Well," replied the son, "le' me give you a demonstration How many chickens on that dish, father?"
 "Two," said the old man.
 "Well," said Thomas, ''I can prove there are three." Then he stuck his fork in one and said "That is one, isn't it?',
 "Yes," said the father.
 "And this is two?" sticking his fork in the second.
 "Yes,'' replied the father again.
 "Well don't tone and two make three?, replied Thomas triumph antly.
 "Well I declare. said the father, "you have learned things at college, We'll mother," con- tinued the old man to his wife, "I will give you one of the chickens to eat and I'll take the other, and Thomas can have the third. How is that Thomas?"

The latest invention to hang in the family dinning room is the gum board, plain, or decorated, fastened to the wall, The names of the family is painted on the circumference and marks the spot where the gum is left until wanted. This saves carrying the gum to bed and getting it in one's hair or swallowing tin the night. Itis obvious that the gum
 board supplies long left want,
