The Nevada County picayune. (Prescott, Ark.) 190?-current, 1910-09-27

We wish to emphasize the fact
that we desire to make the Plea
yune pre-eminently a newspaper
that represents the interest of
the farmers of Nevada county.
The interest Of the farmers of
the county and the town of Pres
colt are identical; whatever
benefits the farmers benefits the
merchant. because the merchant
depends on the farmer for the
greater part of his trade; and
whatever benefits the town
makes it more desirable and
better place for the farmer to
do his trading and whatever
other business he may have.
Just as Prescott men are proud
of the progressive farmers of
the county who are raising the
fine fruit, corn, cotton and stock.
SO are the farmers proud of the
wideawake, hustling and accom-
modating merchants who carry
the big stocks Of goods in town.

Waldron, Ark, Oct. 9, 1909
Mr. VIM Brooks, Prop,
Brooks Med. Co., kussellvllle, Ark.
MY Dear Sir: For several weeks |
have been intending to write you IN re-
gard to your Baby Balm.
If you remember, when yon were
here this summer | told you that our
baby was sick He was then having
his third attack of bowel trouble this
summer They were very severe.
The first two were exceedingly alarm
ing and | suggested to my wife tat
we try your remedy, but she was pre-
JUDGED against patent medicine, so
was |, but | knowing you, gave me
confidence to some extent, tpardon the
modified clause
In the last case however my wife
agreed to try your Baby Balm. |
went to my doctor and told him that |
wanted to try it. He said that he did
not know what it contained but to
give it trial We did, and it worked
like a charm. Now my wife will not
pc without it and the baby has not had
bad case with his bowels since we
began using 1t.
You know how parents are about the
baby. We watch him and il any
trouble is indicated Brooks Baby
Bowel Balm is put into service prompt
ly and it has not failed to keep him
straight so far.
have been at the drug store here
ON different occasions when parties
come in for baby medicine and | just
can't land don't try to keep from
"buttn in" and telling them to get
your Baby Balm. Just night before
last man came into the drug store
here to get badly medicine. Ny wife
SAYS tell him to get Baby Balm, ="
but he had already learned It's worth
and that was what he was after
You yourself know that have al
ways found objection to the publishing
of patent medicine advertising in my
paper and | never thought would be
person to write recommendation
for a patent medicine, but could
hardly resist in this casa, since feeling
the great benefits received from your
Baby Balm.
Very respectfully yours,
w f. Baker.
The above is one one of the thou
sands of unsolicited lerters received in
support of Baby Balm and this baby IS
one of the so, 00e Arkansas Babies test
ing Baby Balm last year, among which
was not single failure or complaint.
MIR. Baker is Editor and Proprietor
of the Advance Reporter of Waldron,
Ark, one of the largest end best
weekly newspapers in the state. His
letter is given space because of his
known prejudice against patent medi-
cines.
The manufactures offer $1,000 for a
i formula or prescription producing "a
greater percent of cures than Baby
Balm. They also offer 500 for case
of bowel infection in children that will
not yield to Baby Balm fgiven under
specific directions from beginning.

Deep breeding and good harrow
ing will be required to get the
land in good condition.
Better results will be had if
the seeded for wheat was pre-
pared some time ago. Wheat
tarives better when the top of
the soil is somewhat firm. Where
it becomes necessary to plant
soon after the land has been
prepared, it is sometimes advis-
able to run the roller oyer the
land. But the top soil must not
be packed too firmly, as this
will cause a loss of moisture that
will be needed by the young
plants.
We believe that our farmers
should SOW more wheat. While
commercial wheat growing
would hardly be profitable eX-
cept in certain localities that are
especially adapted to wheat
growing. most of us find it prof.
table to produce enough for
home use. Farm and Ranch.

The country newspapers of the
South are at this season of the
year deluged with circulars got
ten out by Gotten experts who
wish to get a lot of free adver-
Using and influence the cotton
raisers to either hold their cotton
for a big advance or to turn it
loose at once. We fear that
these gentlemen who seem to
have the welfare of the farmer
so much at heart are sending out
their advice for their own benefit
largely. The average farmer
will not make much by operating
on a speculative basis. He
should not try to get every
penny of profit out of his cotton,
but sell at what he considers a
good average price. He should
not sell all his crop at the
earliest possible moment, but
sell some and hold some; put it
on the market gradually and the
normal steady demand will take
care of the price.

GETTING MORE LIVE STOCK ON
YOUR FARM

The plant feeds on the SOIL. the
animal feeds on the plant, aud
the fertility goes back to the
soil This is the Almighty S
trinity-th plant, the animal,
the soil-over and over again IN
unending cycles, if the earth IS
to be kept fruitful. Any sort
of farming that tries to exist
with only two Of the three = the
soil and the plant-fies in the
face of Nature and of Provld-
ence and can only end in failure
and in poverty.
And true as this is for other
sections. it is even truer for the
South. The Western farmer,
whose land is rich, may grow
live stock if he chooses. It's a
matter of choice with him. But
the Southern farmer whose land
is poor, must grow live stock II
he is to prosper. It's a matter
of ecessity with him.
Doubtless you do not wish to
go into general stock raisin now.
Mr.. Average Farmer, but you
ought to have hogs than you are
raising. There's market for
pork and bacon and ham prices
are out of sight and more
money in hogs than in cotton.
Yeu ought to have more cattle
too. Our average farmers in
the South don't keep even half
as TO say nothing of market
cattle, Milk and butter make up
about the cheapest as we'll as the
most heartful of food products,
and a farmer should be ashamed
to be without an abundance of
either.
Then, We ought to have more
horses more horses to work
improve farm machinery, and
more brood mares to raise high
priced colts. Our average farm
worker in the South is using on
ly onefourth or onefifth as much
horse power as the average
farm worker in the West.
So let's not try, to decide our
selves into thinking it is not
practicable to get more stock on
our farms. We shall fail about
as badly as We do trying to de-
ceive Nature with a soil. plant
team instead of a soil-plant
animal team.
Few Southern farmers after
full investigation will deny the
ACCESSIBILITY of getting more
hogs, more cattle. and in mos
cases more horses, for their
FARMS Make up your mind
then to begin adding these until
you have properly stocked
plantation-and the best stock,
too. Work away from scrubs
just as rapidly but steadily as
possible Starkville Miss. J

DR.. 5. b. Warner, the new pastor

the Sunday Y. NJ. C. A. meeting, the
Following Sabbath at o'clock. He
has chosen as his subject, "A Million

The annual record list of the Den
yer Y. NJ. c. A. has been received in
this city. By comparison with the
local records. which were established
in one years work It is discovered
that Grand Junction has good reason
TO be proud of her Y. NJ. C. A. ath-
letes. In four records our-b boys bet
tered the Denver records and in an
other instance tied the capital city
mark. The Denver association is an
old organization and the records are
the result of years while the local
records were all made in one season.
In the running high jump the records
of both associations are equal, 5 feet
4 inches. In the bar vault, Grand
junction claims 6 feet inches
against feet inches. In the 12-lb.
shot put the locals have a record OF
81 feet S-4 inches against SO feet 10
inches. In the still dip the local rec
ord is q times against % made by
the Denver man, The fourth is the

From the foregoing it may be seer
that the athletics as carried on las,

MESA COUNTY PAYING
DELTA'S WATER BILL

For several years Mesa county has
been bearing part of Delta county's s
water commission expense, and from
the records this has been an unequal
and unfair burden on this county.
The proportion which this county
has been paying has been one-fourth
of Delta's bill, amounting to some
thing over $1,000 annually. When
it is considered that Delta county has
but one little stream, the Escalante,
which comes in our district, and that
the stream in question has not been
gone over in its entirety for years,
the unfalrness of the proposition is
apparent.
1t is understood, however, that the
nominees for congress on both tick
cts have promised to use their efforts
to have the state stand the entire
water commission expense and reim-
burse itself by taxation equally dis
tributed, SO that this incubus shall
be removed from Mesa county.
Even now this county is paying
half the expense of one man In Gar
field county, under the district ar
rangement.

RAILROADS TO Equal
OUR ADVERTISING BILL

Secretary Thomas F. Mahony re-
turned this noon from Denver. where
he has been in session with the state
board of immigration. /
Mr. Mahony states that the past
meeting has probably resulted in
more genuine good for the western
slope OF Colorado than any which he
has attended for many months.
Notice has already been published
of the appropriation of $500 for a
general exhibit of the state to rem e.
sent Colorado at the Council Bluffs
exposition.
The proposition made by the board
to the Union Pacific railroad, that
they extend to Colorado the same of
fer which they give to other sections
along their route for the benefit of
advertising, was agreed to by the
road. This offer is that the Union
Pacific will pay dollar for dollar with
every dollar spent in advertising Col
orado by the commercial bodies of
the state. This applies to magazine
advertising as well as to the attract
I've literature and pamphlets sent out
broadcast by the various sections.
The offer as first made by the I'm
ion Pacific, when they agreed to Col
orado's sharing in the benefits of
their advertising fund was that only
eastern Colorado was to be included.
as this is the only section to which
their road reached; but Secretary Ma
honey convinced them that their road
got Just as much good out of the set
tier who came to western Colorado,
as the man who stopped in the east
ern part of the state and they finally
agreed to include Grand Junction and
western Colorado in the territory that
is to benefit by their offer.
