We desire to call attention to an article which appears else where in this issue under the caption, Five Year Men," a re quest that each man who has sue ceeded in the South West write five letters, four to friends in the North and East and one to the Passenger Traffic Manager of the Rock Island Frisco Lines. advising them of his success. The Rock Isliand Frisco Go. will then publish their communi- cation and SOW it broad cast in fertile soil if the successful farm CTS of Lonoke County alone would comply with this request, they would be the factors in one of the most colossal boosting schemes which has ever come to Arkansas. The Rock Island Frisco System in it's effort to ad- vance immigration, deserves the hearty support of every proper t.y owner in the South West.

OF INTEREST TO
 RICE GRO WORS.

Stuttgart, Ark, Nov. ,, 1909. EDITOR ELLIS,
 Carlisle, Ark.
 DEAR SIR
 In as much as there has been a great deal of talk going around on pulling out the Layne pump and replacing same in the well, and the report has been started that it will cost S200.00 to do this work, we beg to say that on pplling.outand replacing pump the cost will not exceed 15 per cent of that amount and the pump is not complicated or difficults piece of machinery to remove and replace. Any pump man with two or three men and tongS, block and tackle can re- move the pump and replace it again and it does not need an experienced man.
 Regarding the efficiency of the pump, we are publishing one of our letters which has been be- fore the public for about three years and nobody has taken up the proposition.
 Yours truly,
 Layne & Bowler Go.
 E. J. BASYE,
 Manager.

Thousands of tons of rice straw in this section will go to waste this winter and the own CTS will not realize one cent from it, but if we had paper mill there would be a ready market for it. Not only this but if we had paper mill it would furnish work for hundreds of day labor CTS. It behooves our people to get busy along this line before it is to late.

Carlisle is badly in need of more concrete sidewalks and the only way we see to get them is to follow the example of every other progressive town in the state. Organize improvement districts and build them in every section of the town.

Results speak for themselves.

Canado, Texas.
 DEAR SIR
 Confirming conversation the writer had with you this day, with reference to certain talk thatis being made concerning the efficiency over the Layne Pump of other pumps and wells using other screen than the Layne Screen, will say that we are willing to enter into contract whereby we put our system against other system or com blnation of systems, either in drilling of the wells, equipping same with any screen or combi- nation of screens, they using any centrifugal pump; Emerson Pump or Air lift that they may desire. Our competitors using same engine that we use, each of us to run our own pump, fire our own engine and the party pumping the most water in five hours with the least amount of fuel consumption is to resolve pay for his well. The party loosing to make a present of his complete plant to the farmer.
 The above proposition is simi- lar to one that we made before the public for last year and no party or parties have accepted it.. We speak of parties as we do not object to a combination. For instance, one party may furnish the pump, another party the screen, another party inS.s.4l ee +ehe pump, another drill the well, and upon all you have another party act as general engineer and superintend the entire propo sition.
 In addition to the above, inas- much as no one has accepted the proposition outlined above, we are willing to make you a present of S250.00 if you will get our competition or combination of competitors to accept the above proposition and in addition we will if our competitors win out, pay S250.00 of the agreed upon cost to the farmer of the competitors $ or comptitors' well. If we win out, we will discount S250.0O to the farmer on the purchase |
