Arkansas Timber

Arkansas is noted as a timber state and producer of forest pro ducts. It is estimated by the For est Service that of the 33, ,616.OOO acres of land in the state 31, ,94O, 900 acres were originally cover el with forests; that the present forest area, is "A 100000 or 72 per cent of it's entire land surface.
 .ucn of this forest has been cull- ed over to some extent but it still contains an enormous amount of timber and a great deal of it in practically it's virgin condition.
 The state has been a lumber producer fOE three quarters of a century, but until few years ago | it's output was small compared with that Of many other states. It's reported output by the census of 1880 was 172 ,5OO,OOO feet of kinds of sawed material; by 1890 the cut had jumped to 537 1884 ,OOO feet. by 1900 to l. .623, ,9S7 900 feet and in 1907 it's mills reported an output of 1888, S,SO4 .OOO feet; which made it sixth among the states in the value of lumber
 4tput. It moved up to the fourth place in 1908 and will prob ably make another advance this year.
 In view, of the estimate as to the area still remaining in the forests in Arkansas and the enOr- nous quantity of thrifty timber growing on the culled over areas, Arkansas will be a lumber produc- CT probably in all time to come. It's lumbermen are beginning to practice conservative methods ol
 ,ging and handling the timber, and since trees grow here with a minimum of assistance the pro duct or keeping supply is reduc- cd here to a simple matter-let 4De land alone and keep out fire, nature will do the rest. :.

Good Wheat Crop

Leslie, Sept. 11.-It is estimated that about 1000 bushels of wheat will be thrashed out in this part of the country this season. Most of the grain will be disposed of at the local mill which is large ly responsible for the constant ly increasing acreage of wheat in this section. The mill is one of Leslies big institutions. Consid- ering the fact that this is a noun ttainous country the wheat crop is considered unusually good. It indicates that Arkansas is rapidly becoming a diversified farming country.

You feel quite sure that everybody
you meet will know that you have a

yourself, when in the full enjoyment
OF cold, airing opinions that you
