Harvesting In Fall
Blast Over County
Crops Eeirg Taken Care of Earlier
Than Last Year-FaiI Wheat is
Doing Well.

Harvesting is in full blast all
over the Southern and Western parts
of the county. Threshing machines,
headers and binders are to be seen
on every hand, and from all appear
ances the crop will be taken care of
much earlier than it was last year
unless stopped by persistent rains,
which does not seem probable at
present. In addi ion to the harvest
ing of the grain crops the second
crop of alfalfa is being cut. which
adds double load to the farmer
who happens to have both grain
and hay.
Reports from the hill country are
to the effect that most of the fall
wheat is turning out well, and the

true, according to one of the Rev.
gentleman's subsequent state
ments. 1t will be noted that the
letter is dated May Z, 1909. May
IL, 1910, its author stated that ga
little over a year ago" he "became
interested" in the Crumb project
and drove a lot of people, from
day to day. over the land to be
distributed. One year and FIVE
days is Uery little over a year. If
the editor of the REGISTER put
himself into so tight a place
wouldn't his Rev. contemporary
feel warranted in shrieking "false-
hood? Has every contract hold
er received ten acres "clear of
stones?" Has one in ten, one in
fifty, one in one hundred? Even
on the water question, where we
would suppose that the greatest
enthusiast could not exceed the
bounds of veracious extollment,,
this letter transcends. "We bot
tie water here and ship to the
Cities" it says. Upon diligent
inquiry, I can veryify but two
shipments during the past year
one jug from Arcadia to Poplar
Bluff, and one from Ironton to st.
Louis. But the cream of the
epistle lies in its conclusion: "You
see the native is the slow, easy
going Southerner, and to him
work is a Disgrace" etc. How
does that strike you, We "natives,"
who have, by your industry, sup
plementing the toll of those other
"natives," your fathers, cleared
the forests, titled the fields, and
made this Arcadia Valley one OF
the most beautiful on earth? Is
work now, or has it aver been a
disgrace" to the Russells, the
Delanos, the Farrars, the Hollo-
mans, the Whitworths, the Mar
tins, the Kaesemachers, etc.? Is
it or has it ever been a "~disgrace''
to my old neighbor, DR.. Jones?
To the honest old Germans OF
Pilot Knob and of the farms con-
tiguous? Is it a "disgrace" to the
farmers of the Flatwoods and
Marble Creek-the Blantons, the
Suttons, the Hensons, the Millers?
To the developers of the extensive,
fertile and beautiful m of Belle
view Valley-the Palmers, the
Logans, the Harrals, the Hales, the
Russells, the Hawkinses, the Fitz-
patricks, the Lathams, the Behring'S
but what need particularizing?
AH natives are by one fell stroke
of the pen put in the same cate
gory-''work is a disgrace" to
them, one and all. This, indeed,
gives the outsider the chance of
his lifetime; he ''cannot help but
win" over the "slow, easy-going
Southerner." Make way for the
hustlers of the Arcadia Valley De-
velopment Co., whose prophet is
the Rev. DR.. Fuller Swift!
