RETURNED FROM FAIR
l. N. Davis Says That Polk County
 Display Is Fine.

I. Nj. Davis. who with Mrs. Davis and children drove by automobile to Hot Springs Sunday the 8th, returned home last Wednesday night. arriving about 8 o'clock.
 Mir. Davis says that they had an ex- cellept time, and that Polk county has reason to be proud of the dis play it has there. He says the natur- al history exhibit made by W. A. Tom linson attracts great attention, and shows up doubly well because there is another similar exhibit there that does not compare with it in quality.
 MT. Davis says he saw the young men who went over in the Connell- Harmon car, and they seemed to be having a fine time joy riding with the fair ones of the Vapor city.

The conditions seemed so encour- aging and the experience gained so valuable the sentiment was unani- nous at the stockholders meeting to hold together and make real sue cess next year. To do this funds are needed at this time to meet present obligations and a resolution was passed by the stockholders request ing the directors to levy cash as- sessment of $15.00 per share on the unpaid stock subscription, payable S. co in 30 days, $500 in 60 days, and S5. .00 in 90 days.
 Another good showing was made in the report on canteloupe sales. Again that late frost cut down the acreage so that a car had to be held until double iceing expenses had to be paid and then shipped with about one-fourth of load, and yet, on two cars shipped the growers netted about S1 GO per crate. With a full acreage it seems certain that Polk county truck growers can make big money in shipping cantaloupes.
 Before the stockholders meeting adiourned it was decided that the next regular meeting, which will be Friday. Nov. 4, should be held at inc canning factory, as there were many of the members who expressed desire to gather there and look over their property.

AUTO INTO OUACHITA
Ferry Boat Let Mena Travellers Slip Into River on Return Frnm Hot
 Springs Trip,

The party of young men who went to Hot Springs by automobile Monday to attend the State fair. returned home about o'clock last Thursday night, and say they had the greatest trip of their lives.
 Emmett Harmon, who drove the car. relates an incident of the return trip that was at least interesting. When he started to run off the ferry boat af- ter crossing the 0uachita river the chains holding the boat to the bank gave way and it was kicked from un- der the car, letting it back into the river. The hind wheels of the car were just about submerged. A team Of mules pulled it ashore.
 MT. Harmon states that that the trip to Hot Springs was made in 6 hours and IS minutes running time. Coming back they took their time. making side trips and enjoying the scenery.
 J. A. Cornell. who owns a half in- terest in the car, says he's ready to carry another party to Hot Springs at any time.

PROFIT IN SORGHUM
Uncle Dick Whisenhunt Made 3i4 Gal
 Ions From 2 1-2 Acres.

R. D. Wood was in last week from Shady. He says he has been helping Uncle Dick Whisenhunt make sor- ghum, and that from one field of 1-2 acres they made 314 gallons as fine sorghum as he ever saw, easily worth 60 cents gallon. This would bring $18S. 40, and the seed also is very val uable.
 In all Mir. Whisenhunt made STA gallons of sorghum.
 MT. Wood was elected justice of the peace of Gap Springs township at the recent election. He made application for final proof on his homestead while here.

Back to the Farm.

The Rev. T. A. Parks and w. D. Eskew spent day last week at the home of A. D. Gilbert on the Ouachita river east of Mena. and they both came back feeling a strong call of 'back to the tarm. Mir. Eskew says that Mir
 Gilbert raised 120 bushels of wheat on four acres, and has corn crop of 1000 bushels, with hay, oats, grass, etc. to spare, a showing that it would be good for thousands to see who do not know Polk county soils and climate.

THE CANNING FACTORY
Synopsis of the Annual Report, Show Ing The Condition of the New
 Enterprise.

At the regular monthly meeting of the stockholders of the Shipping, Canning and Manufacturing Associ- ation, held October 2, the annual re- port of the condition of the truck and fruit growers organization was read.
 1t covered in detail the business transacted during the past season, and, con sidering that it was for the first year of a new institution, and other causes which worked against the enterprise, it was considered to be fine report and seemed to please all the stockholders who were pres ent.
 To begin with, while the report showed that splendid acreage of tomatoes, potatoes and cantaloupes was planted, the late frost cut them all back seriously. This not only worked a hardship on the growers, but cut to the very life of the s. c. M. A., for there was an understand ing that the funds to maintain the Association and get it ready to open the canning factory were to come from the proceeds of the half of the products being grown by the stock holders, which was to be turned in as payment on stock subscriptions. The inability of the subscribers to stock to turn in any quantity of pro- duce on their stock so that the As sociation could sell it and put the cash in it's treasury, caused it to be very hort of funds, nevertheless the canning plant was installed and ready for business when the small acreage of tomatoes that was left by the frost began ripening, and over 7,500 cans of choice tomatoes were put up. Because the tomatoes came Tn in quantities not sufficient to run the plant at it's full capacity, the can ming was much more expensive than it should have heen. Again, because of the shortage of funds cans had to be purchased in small quantities at a high price and the canned goods had to be forced on the market at low price to provide money for running expenses. Yet, with these unfavor- able conditions the report shows only a small loss on canning.
 The following is a brief summary of the condition of the Shipping, Canning and Manufacturing Associ- ation at the closeof business for 1910: Total Receipts ..... .......... S2093. 54 Total Paid Out. t................ 20c3. 37

 PURIFYING THE BLOOD TIE ONLY PERMANENT CURE

No case of Rheumatism was ever cured eur. except by a thorough purifica- u, 'lon or the blood; just as long as the blood remains charged with ferment- ing uric acid poison, the painful dis ease will continue. The pains and acnes ot Rheumatism are simply su- perhcial effects of the impurities in ,ne circulation, and sometimes may oe temporarily relieved by the appli- .a1ion of plasters, liniments, hot .lo,hs, etc. But the person who trifles Nlln this dangerous disease by de- pending or local treatment alone, is ssrtaln to pay for the mistake with sOns'ant suffering later on.
