ACCORDING to the Little Rock Democrat "There ought to be a canning factory in every county seat town in the state.'' It is evident the Demo crat is best &C., quainted with that part of Ar kansas where each county has but one good town-and is sup posed to absorb all the virtue, piety and business of the entire county. But we are not so thin ly populated up here in North west Arkansas. Rogers, Spring. dale, Decatur, Sloan Springs, Springtown, Gentry, Gravette, and Green Forest are towns that have canning factories even though they don't have county seats and they wouldn't feel that a canning factory at Bentonville was any great blessing for the entire section.

FIVE acres beats five dollars a day. A homecroft paper gives this out. A man who can &C., complish this must have qualities that not many possess. A lazy man cannot do it, and three- fourths of the tillers of the soil will be ready to exclaim that it is impossible to accomplish such results. It says any intelligent, industrious thrifty and economi- cal man, who knows how, can so cultivate five acres of land, almost entirely with his own labor, that will produce from it not only the principal part of the food for his own family during the year, but in addition a net profit in money of over thous- and dollars.
