 Merchants in the country dis tricts who would have to pay both freight and hauling cannot afford to handle them at list price.
 These conditions make 1t very inconvenient for many parts of the county. What is the remedy? Pay the country dealer mere money or what?
 Our remedy-Get state unifor- mity, (the only way by whi-h the prices of school books can be re- duced). This must be done through legislation; then get to work on your representative and influence other counties to do the same.
 Don't try to shoulder the blame on me; I have no more to do with the prices or the discounts given ne than you have.
 I could point out 10 you many advantages that state uniformity would afford, other than the reduc- ton of prices, but believe that you already realize what they would be.
 Assuring you of my sympathy and help in any movement which will make our schools better and reduce the cost of school books, I am,

To School Patrons.

In order that l may correct an erroneous idea existing in some parts of the county and may also agitate a question which means much to you, I desire to make this statement:
 I have no agency or exclusive sale of school books whatever. Any man in Conway or Faulkner county who has the credit can buy school books at the same prices for which I buy them, and sell them for any price or at any rsace k- pleases.
 The fact is, there is no money to the retailer i'll school books, hence no one else wants to bother with them.
 Twelve years ago, when we put school books at list price, we had three competitors, who were get ting at least twenty-five per cent more than list price, on an aver

one of the charter members of this lodge, having been instrumental in its organization and ever re- mained one of its strongest sup ports, having on several occasions rendered valuable aid to this lodge. He was the first noble grand of this lodge, having been elected at it's organization November 26, 1887. He has with credit filled every office of this lodge, devoting his time and influence to further the cause of Odd Fellowship. Bro.

 To the bereaved family we ex- tend our heartfelt sympathy, and stand ready to aid them in the hour of distress.

200 DEMONSTRATION FARMS
Faulkner County May Have
 that Number.
Conway Board of Trade to Raise S12oo to Employ Government Expert
 IF Months.

If the plans formulated by the Board of Trade of this city are carried out Faulkner county will have about POO demonstration farms in operation next season. Much enthusiasm over the project was manifested atthe meeting held yesterday, at which State Agent J. A. Evans explained the objects cf the United States department of agriculture in supervising the demonstration farms.
 MT. Evans laid before the board the proposition of employing a government agricultural expert for all his time in this county. This, he stated, had never been at tempted in any county except some which had been ravaged by the boil weevils, but he believed that Faulkner county was peculiarly progressive along this line and he wanted the people here to make the experiment. One expert can oversee from I5o to 200 farms, giving them frequent visits and close supervision. In addition to this, from ten to a dozen farmers in proximity to each demonstration farm may be kept posted as to his visits and also be furnished with literature on scientific farming thus practically covering the entire county. The expense for such a man would be about SI2oo, one fourth of which will be borne by the government, and in addition to this the farmers will be expect ed to supply themselves with seed selected by the state agent.
 MT. Evans believes that under such expert supervision this coun- ty will increase at least SIoo, 900 the value of its agricultural pro- ducts next year and the money spent i'll teaching scientific agrl- culture will be the best investment the people of the county ever made.
 The meeting was an informal one and many questions were asked MT. Evans. Governor Elect Don aghey was present and manifested much interest in the meeting.
 A tentative subscription list tc GOV 1T the expense of the govern ment agents services was made IT and it is thought that the money will be raised without difficulty. II Several hundred dollar subscrip- tions and number of smaller one: have already been made.
 No difficulty is anticipated in SC curing a sufficient number of farm CTS to undertake the work, as the results of the demonstration farms
 about 30 in number, cultivated II this county last year leaves nc doubt as to the benefit of scientific principles applied to agriculture.
