This is the season when every mer- chant. who desires to do a good holi- day business, should get busy.
 He just can't nope around. look gloomy. talk hard times" and ex- pect to make success in any enter prise that depends upon goodwill in the hearts of those who buy.
 In the first place, Holiday busi- ness is in a class that has, in very large degree, to be created. Many a person, with all the spirit of the season lying latent in his heart, will not awaken and put it into action unless it is stirred up in some man. ner. He will merely drift on in a certain indifference to the happiness he give those near and dear--only to awaken the day after" with regrets over the disappointment in the hearts of chose for whom he most cares.
 Get busy. Stir up in every way the spirit of doing and giving. Tell of the things that can be had in your place of business that will please a wife, mother, a father, a daughter or any dear one.
 By doing this you will help set the ball to rolling. You will make many happy smiles and you will wear some of them.

THE DROPPING WATER

A demonstration of the old adage that dropping water wears away the hardest stone was given Saturday in the office of The Star. Just after the newspaper press was started to print on the daily edition great crash was heard and it was found that the heavy cast iron frame that supported portion of the machine had been broken in three places. Investigation showed that half inch bolt which for fourteen years had carried cam, withstanding a blow whenever the press revolved to print paper, had given away-become crystallized by the long continued jars. This failing to perform it's function, caused the crash for the time vital injury to the press.
 Then came the courtesy that rarely ever fails. The distress call went over the phone to Mr. Dahlgren of the News-Democrat, who responded with cheery "come on," and in a few moments his big press was grinding out Stars at good rate.

We are in the habit of regarding the
 hog as the scayenger of the farm. We seem to forget that if properly fed and cared for he returns more meat for food consumed than any other class of farm animals; that he requires less feed per pound of grain and at the same time brings as great a price up- on the market as the steer; and that a greater per cent oihis carcass is edi- ble than is the case with the steer or sheep. The feeding of swine requires less capital than the feeding of any other class of farm animals and a small sum invested in a brood SOW will in years time return many fold to the purchaser To allow the hog to become semi-wild and starve or hunt it's own liviving from bare fields and pastures, and to breed promis- cuously is not hog raising in the true sense of the term. Success is brought about by giving them care and atten- tion; it means the providing of com fortable sleeping places during inclem- ent weather, keeping them free from lice, and regular feeding upon rations

 A long growing season, good chm ate, and a great variety of crops are some of Natures great gifts to the South. Our eyes have always been open to the opportunities for hog rais- ing but we have been too willing to stick to the one crop system. We are just beginning to take advantage of our opportunities and today the de- mand for pure bred hogs in the state is greater than the supply. If Arkan- sas is to become a great hog produc- ina state and if we are to compete successfully with other states in thls branch of live stock farming, we must take advantage of our excellent cllm- ate and soil and produce the greater portion of the feed for the hog right on the farm where he is to be prepared for the market. There is no money in the hog business where all of the feed they consume is purchased upon. the market. That green crops can be grown for hogs almost the year round is clearly shown by the following ta- ble:

That careful and scientific farming
pays is evidel ced by the claim of
Charles VOTE, of the Mission COM
munity in Texas, who holds the
worlds record for profits from in
tensive farming. He recently sold
his Bermuda onion crop on "a acres
for S11, 1892. Deducting the expense
of planting, cultivating and market
ing, the crop left him a fortune. The
onion yield from these "a acres flied
% cars. The product was shipped
to Mon then and Eastern markets.
The land could have been bought ten
years ago for 81 an acre. This
onion crop occupied a season Of less
than seven months. The same
land will be planted again and made
to yield from 500 to $12O an acre
during the five months remaining.
1t is said that probably larger yields
to the acre may have been obtained
from smaller acreage, bat so far as is
known the profits obtained by Mr..
VOTE from "a acres is a new record
for intensive farming. All Bermuda
onions in the lower Rio Grande Val
ley territory are raised by irrigation.
The art of making land pay is grow
ing remarkably all over the country
and Delaware must apply the latest
method if they too are to reap big ret
wards.

other towns, Smyrna Council fire.

Labratory at Delaware College to be

one of the most remarkable wells of

and the supply seems to be mex
haustible With the thousands Of
gallons pumped from this well, there
IS never let up or scarcity. The
water is always running freely and
