HOW TO TREAT
OLD SORES

The proper DGy-tie only sue
cessful WGy- to treat an old sore
Is to destroy It's source. Not BY
dangerous surgical operations OF
irritating, g draining plasteTs, but
BY Natures true method of purify

Iation Nth rich, ROurishing proper
ties; then the cure gilI be natural
and lasting. We can easily under
stand hcuU impurities in the blood
uDiH infect some rUeak point on OuT
bodies, and BY continually dis
charging impurities into it keep the
place open and infamed until a
chronic ulcer is formed. Nothing
then is so sure TO produce a cure
ofthese old sores as S. S. S. This
medicine is Natures perfect blood
remedy, composed of the most heal

TAKE YOUR BOY TO THE FAIR

Take that boy of yours to the State
Fair this year. Take that bright, in
teligent daughter, too. A great
State Fair is an educational institu-
ton of more than ordinary import
ance. 1t is such, not only to the
young, but to the old as well. Knowl-
edge is more quickly obtained and
more firmly grasped by observation
than any other method. This fact is
recognized and utilized in all our edu-
cational systems today. At the State
Fair this fall, you may see the latest
discoveries in arts and science, in
machinery and implements for all
lines of industry, the highest grades
of live stock, the best breeds of
fowls, and the highest achievements
in human skill and ingenuity. 1t is
a great school, and aside from the en-
tertainment and pleasure of the trip,
will be worth to you double the ex-
pense.
Pocahontas star herald., 1911-08-04

We owe 1t to the community in
which we live to do everything we
can in every way possible that will
be to its advantage. Our neigh
bor's prosperity means a great deal
more to US than someone's who lives
elsewhere. We should bear this IN
mind in buying our goods. We
can afford to pay our home man a
firm price for his wares rather than
send our money away, knowing as
we do that every dollar expended
with our citizens will help IN sus.
tanning our schools, churches and
public institutions. 1t pays richly
patronlze home industry.

Except to those who have visited
the Arkansas State Fair heretofore,
it is not generally known that we
have the finest and best equipped
fair grounds in the South. The great
plant embraces nearly one hundred
acres, and with all improvements cost
half million dollars. 1t is the prop
erty OF the 0aklawn Jockey Club, was
tuilt for a racing track and is said to
be the finest in the United States.
Since the legislature confiscated this
property by the passage of the Amis
act, which killed horse racing in
this state, the owners have given the
use OF this splendid plant to the peo-
pie of the state, free of cost, for the
use OF the State Fair. This they have
done for five years, notwithstanding
the fact that they have received no
legislative relief in return. The fair
grounds are one mile south of the
city of Hot Springs, and are reached
by a double-track trolley electric car
line. The cars run into the grounds,
discharging and taking on passen-
gers under roof, so that rain or shine,
one is not subject to dicomfort. Dur
ing the fair, cars run on a three min
ute schedule, and the crowds are
swiftly and safely handled without de-
lays, and the run to the city takes
but seven minutes.
The great exposition palace is 200
by 400 feet two stories, with concrete
floor, toilets, water fountains, res
taurants and everything for the com
fort of the public. The great grand
stand on the second floor, facing the
mile track, will seat three thousand
people, Agricultural paiace is almost
as large stands near the main palace,
and is connected by covered passage
ways on both stories. South of these
are Electric Grove, where the main
amusement features are located, a
beautifully shaded lawn, glowing at
night With thousands or incandescent
lights. The grounds are beautifully
ornamented with shrubbery and flow.

AN OBJECTIONABLE RULE NOW
ABOLISHED.

A rule was in force at the State
Fair last year, stipulating that in case
any exhibit had no competition, sec
ond money only should be awarded.
A similar rule is in force at other
state fairs. The management of the
Arkansas State Fair this year abol-
ished that rule, believing it to be un-
just to the exhibitor, and it will not
be in force this fall. The manage
ment take the view that any one
bringing an animal or article to the
fair for exhibition, does so expecting
competition, and willing to take
chances in meeting it. If there is
no competition he is not responsible
for this, and should take first pre-

In politics they are known as stand |
patters. There are standpatters in
farming and everything else. They
croak about changes and pose as
wise owls who have learned all
there is to learn. But there are
new crops, improved varitles, new
ways of farming that are better
than the old crops, old varieties,
old methods, and you wide-awake
boys should study to find out the
better ways.
THE MYSTERY OF PLANT GROWTH
Boys do you know where plant
gets its food from? "The ground"
you will say. Partly true. Pll|
try and tell you how plants grow.
The first food for growth at
termination is furnished by theseel
itself.
The corn sends a stem upward
and roots downward, but it feeds
upon the kernal of corn until it gets
a good root system started and
enough leaf above ground to fur
nish the plant food. The potato
plant feeds upon the seed piece un-
til 1t gets good start. Plants
take water from the soil by. m cans
of root hairs-fuzzy little fellows
that grow on the rootlets. This
water contains dissolved plant food.
1t goes up the plant stem on the
inside through water cells. 1t leaves
the plant through stomata r
mouths on under side of the leaves.
But when the water evaporates
from the leaves, it does not carry
the mineral plant food away that Is
brought up from the ground. This
plant food goes through chemical
change in contact with the sunlight
and air and becomes real plant food
When plants are kept in the darl
they are pale and bleached looking
You know how potato sprouts dow
in dark cellar look. The greer
part of plants in chlorophyll which
changes plant food brought up by
the water into starch and sugar anC
etc. So without light, there is NJ
chlorophyll and no manufacturing
of plant food.
This lessons the growth of crop'
t during cold weather. Carbon diox
; ide from the air enters the leaves
, and helps in the mauuacture of
) plant food. The plant food then
goes down the plant stem to thC
roots in what is called the phloen
portion of the stem. This plant
? food then develops more roots that
go out and gather in more water
/. with its soluble mineral elements
So you see the real plant food
goes to the roots aud is not all ia
t ken from the soil by the roots.
+ When you keep any plant from
> developing leaves, you soon kill ii
i by starving the roots. And when
d you or a rabbit girdle a tree, you
kill it, because the food conducting
+ part the (phloem cells) lies just be-
e meath the bark. The roots then
/, starve. But you may see green
