SEEK TO REMOVE
 TELEPHONE POLES

Mayor A. J. Witt and the street and alley committee of the city council are today making an effort to prevent the Southwestern Telegraph and Tele- phone Company from installing new poles and stringing additional wires along the public square and Front street. The crew which is reconstruct ing the long distance phone line has been here for several days and have reached the square with their work. As most of the business houses have had bracket or drop awnings placed in front of the buildings, the council pearance of the street by having the poles and wires removed. J. A. Frisby owner of the local telephone exchange, has stated that he expects to remove the central office to the west side of the square about the first of the year, at which time the local lines will be taken off Front street. It was thought that while the Southwestern people are reconstructing their lines the re- moval of their poles could be made without expense.
 It is not known whether the com pany will accede to the request of the city officers. On account of no quorum being present the regular meeting of the council was not held last night, and an effort by Mayor Witt to have a called meeting for the consideration of the matter this morning was unsuc- ctssful

AN INTERESTING GAME
HIGH SCHOOL WINS FROM THE STATE NORMAL SECOND
 TEAM TO 0.

Conway high school defeated the second team of the State Normal yes terday afternoon by the score of 3 to 0.
 In the first minute of play Thorn ton, the speedy little left end of the high school, received long forward pass and sprinted 85 yards for a touchdown, making the only score of the game, as Moore failed to kick goal.
 The Normalites outweighed the high school lads several pounds, but the high school excelled their beefy oppo nents in speed. The Normal boys had much difficulty in working the for ward pass and were frequently penal ized, while the high school worked it almost at will and making long gains every time.
 The same teams play a preliminary game Monday before the Ouachita Normal game. Conway plays Morril- ton high school at the latter place next Saturday.

REVIVAL HAS CLOSED
CONCLUDING SERMON DELIV- BRED BY REV. BEN COX
 LAST NIGHT.

Rev. Ben Cox of Little Rock preach ed the concluding sermon in the Bap- tist revival meetings here last night. It was strong discourse on Chris tian cheerfulness, from the text, "I Believe God" and large audience heard him with pleasure.
 Dr. Cox prefaced his sermon by pay ing tribute to this city. Il am glad to be in Conway again. he said. "There is no town in the state that visit with more pleasure than Conway, and there is no town that has a more earnest, aggressive spirit. In some re- spects you are ahead of Little Rock even. You are not only building up your city commercially and making it more beautiful, but you are making it great educational center and cen ter also of great religious influence. You are showing to the people of Ar kansas that Conway is to be reckoned with. 1 want to compliment you on your great interest in church matters. Your people stand by their churches. 1 have been walking around this new building here, and it will be monu- ment to your zeal in religious things. Every citizen ought to feel it an honor to contribute to such building.
 You don't have to fight for your churches like we do in Little Rock" ," the preacher continued. I've have met with great official opposition as well as general indifference. I want to say that 1 have been merchant for 25 years, and I would not want to try to do business where there are no churches. People are not going to a town in large numbers if there be no churches there. 1 am glad to see that Conway is investing in churches and educ ational institutions as well as business houses"

URGES FALL FLOWING
!. F.. ROGERS ADVISES FARMERS TO BREAK SOIL DURING
 AUTUMN.

J. E. Rogers, who has just decided to accept the offer of the Conway Board of Trade and State Agent J. A. Evans to continue in the farm dem onstration work in this county an other year, is preparing to enter at once upon his next years work. Deep fall blowing is urged by MT. Rogers, and this will be required of farmers who expect to cultivate land under government instructions next year. On this subject Mr. Rogers writes;
 "As the crops are about all gath cred, and since the weather is ideal for farm work, l suggest that all far mers who want to make good crop another year, especially those who are interested in the demonstration work, begin to prepare seed-bed for plant ing next spring To prepare this seed bed l suggest that you turn the ground with a turning blow. Follow in the same furrow with sub-soiler pulled hv good pair of horses or mules. This should be done while the sub-soil is dry. Do not be afraid to let the sub-soiler down deep in the ground, for it is most important that the hard pan which has formed below the depth you have been breaking should be broken up, that the air and water may penetrate it and restore life and plant food to the now dead ened soil. It must be remembered that this hard pan should not be turned on the surface, but simply stir it with the long sub-soiler and let the turn ing blow cover it up the next time it comes around. The disc blow is much better to do the breaking with, but as it is somewhat expensive, l give you the cheaper plan. After your land has
The log cabin Democrat., 1909-10-27

been broken it should be thoroughly narrowed, either with a heavy harrow or disc, the disc preferred. This should be repeated several times during the winter if the weather will permit.
 What 1 have said about sub-soiling does not apply of course to deep, mel low bottom-land soils, which do not need to be broken so deep.
 Now, farmers, l hope you will ob- serve these instructions, as most of the Faulkner county soil has this hard pan beneath that should be broken up. Do not say, Well, 1 can't do that, for I have so much land that it would be impossible to do it, hence 1 do not ex- pect to try" I do not expect you to break all of your land this way the first winter, but l do urge you to fix enough to demonstrate to the satisfac- ton of yourself that it will pay. This year has demonstrated beyond shad- ow of doubt that shallow cultivation pays Yet to make it a complete sue cess we should begin preparing the soil in the fall by deep blowing. 1 did not get here last spring in time to do this, but l expect to be with you all the time this year and give you the advantage of the best knowledge we have been able to accumulate.
 Having this early start which gives us a good chance to make good this year, l see no reason why the work in the county should not be success.
 'I also desire to call your attention to the importance of selecting your seed this fall, as we cannot expect to get good crops from poor seed.
 Hoping to meet you in person in the near future, l am,
 Yours respectfully,
 "J. E. ROGERS,
 Special Agent Faulkner County"
