Every man to his trade Is an
old adage and Is familiar 20 nearly
all OF us. It IS brief in tie wording
but conveys a great deal IN It's mean
ing. it Is merely a terse way OF
aging that a man who makes a spe-
ialty OF any one thing knows more
about, and IS more proficient in his
particular speciality than any one
else could be. II Is for this reason
that we all seek a specialist when
We have any serious physical all
ment. 1t Is for the same reason that
The Rydale Remedy CO. went to one
OF the best specialists in the United
states on liver and intestinal trou-
bles, professor in a Columbus. o.,
Medical College, and secured from
him prescription from which Ry-
dale's Liver Tablets are made.
This specialist knew more about lIv-
er troubles than a doctor who treats
all diseases, and that Is why Ry-
dale's Liver Tablets relieve and cure
more quickly all liver troubles than
the ordinary liver pills and pow
ders.

Vegetables of every variety grow in abundance and through such long seasons that the supply is never exhausted.
 The lands which are espr c ally adapted to fruit growing comprise nearly 2O,OOo.OOo acres. and not one-twentieth of this area is now used for that purpose.
 The agricultural lands cover an area of more than 25,OOO,OOO acres, only about one-tenth of which is used in the production of the principal staples. as is shown in the preceding table.
 The timber lands of Arkansas originally covered almost the entire area of the state, and there is enough merchantable timber now standing. which if manufactured into lumber and sold at market prices, would produce an amount equal to the assessed valuation of all the state of Kansas.
 Only few of the medicinal springs are improved and nearly 100000 people now go annually to partake of these healtful waters.
 More than 5000 miles of navi- gable rivers. almost unimproved, are destined to be converted into ship canals and commercial car riers and their immeasurable power utilized. The state contains s rivers. By c. D. Baker in Manu- facturer's Record.

GREAT RESOURCES.
Possibilities of State are Unlimited in Aqri-
 culture and Mininq.

In mineral wealth Arkansas is more richly endowed than many another state in the Union. More than 100000 of acres contain valuable minerals. and although out little of this great wealth has been developed, the following de- posits are known to exist in almost unlimited quantities: Iron, ore. zinc, lead, copper, marble, granite, and nunober of varieties of other stone. Slate, aluminium and the following are also found: Topaz amethyst, agate and diamonds. Millions of acres contain valuable architectural stone and clays which are almost untouched.
 In six different counties, under lying nearly 5,0oO,OOO acres, Ar kansas has total area of worka- ble coal fields of 2,OOO square miles, containing quantity of smokeless coal generally consid- cred equal and by some superior to Pennsylvania hard coal. In 1906 only 65 mines were in operation. and the state produced 1875, ,569 tons of coal.
 Besides sugarcane and an excell- ent quality of cotton. it's product of other agricultural staples is varied, as shown in the following table: Agricultural Products of Arkansas
 for the Year 1906.

Monroe. farmervilIe & Hope Railroad.

Col. Nichols, chief engineer of the Monroe. Farmerville & Hope railroad, is in receipt of a letter from President Taylor in New York. informing him that he has made all arrangements for the building of the road. The delay has been occasioned by the un- settled financial condition of the country. This. indeed, will be good news to the people of Mon roe, West Monroe and this entire section.
 In an interview this morning Col. Nichols stated that the company is now negotiating with a big firm of contractors for the building of the road and that the contract would be closed as soon as the en- gineer of the contractors could go over the llne and make his report. This will be done in the next four days. Col. Nichols has no doubt that the report will be favorable. He further stated that the contrac- tors with whom negotiations are pending is one of the biggest firms of the kind in the country and that if they take hold of the road are in a position to put several outfits at work without delay and complete it within four months.
 The prospects~are indeed bright for direct railroad connections with Farmerville and the splendid coun- try to the northwest of US by Janu- ary, loCo. Monroe Star.

The regular monthly meeting of the town council was held on Monday evening and routine busi- ness transacted. T. c. Rowland was elected to fill the vacancy on the board caused by the removal of pr. J. F. Bailey. The ordinance committee were instructed to draft ordinances and submit same to the attorney general for his approval regarding rallies and the selling of unmarked meat by peddlers.
