Raise Bread and Meat At Home

The resources and possibilities Of
our State are varied that we coulc
live well and comfortably should al,
COMMUNICATION with t h outside
world be cut off. This could hardly
be said of any other State IN the
Union.
Now that planting time is here,
we should plant first, and in abund-
ance, those things which we expect
to use on the farm, or in the home.
The really prosperous farmers are
those farmers who raise a living at
home and whose money crop rep
resents surplus. Cotton perhaps
is the most profitable crop which
the majority of our farmers can
raise. Yet those farmers, some
time called the all-cotton farmers,
who do not prodnce a living at
home and who expect to purchase
even the articles for table use with
the proceeds of cotton sales, are, as
a rule, not prosperous. because no
part of their money crop represents
surplus.
The farmer who produces an
abundance of vegetables, fruit and
meat for home consumption, who
has rarely to purchase anything for
table use, who does not depend up
on his money crop for these neces-
sarles which he can and does pro-
duce at home, is, as rule, a pros
porous farmer.
The farmer who has a surplus of
vegetables and fruit W IL need a
home canning outfit, which can be
secured at reasonable price. AT
odd times, fruit and vegetables can
be put up for winter use, which are
just as fine as the canned goods
purchased at the store and we know
they will be much cleaner and health
er.
Wherever farmers are engaged in
raising fruits and vegetables for
commercial purposes, there is al,
ways q quantity of over-ripe fruit
or vegetables which cannot b {
marketed. These could be canned
for home use, or after canning,
could be sold at considerable pro.
fit. This true also, where the farm
er has a surplus of these products
but not sufficiently large surplus
to Justify shipping.
Let us raise our own "bread and
meat, and sell cotton as a surplus
and by doing this we will reap tht
reward which such a course vii
surely bring and demonstrate by our
prosperity, the truth f the oil,

URGE TEACHING
OF AGRICULTURE
George A. Cole and II. S. MObley
Declare Educational Work
Should Include PraCti-
cal Experiments

81 think we have no better law
than that requiring the teaching of
elementary agriculture in the public
schools" declared President George
"A. Cole of the Farmers Union in
an address to the Legislature last
Thursday, "but l think 1t should
go still further and require that a
plot of ground be utilized for actual
+ experiment work"
Mr.. Cole declared that the former
failures of the agricultural schools
throughout the United States was
due to the fact that they had literary
men at their heads, instead of
practical farmers. He differentiat-
ed the two methods of teaching ag-
riculture as the ''kid glove, or
book method" and the scientific,
making strong appeal for the lat
ter method.
"Oue-fourth of the inhabitants
of the United States" he said, "feed
and clothe the other three.fourths,
and it is to the advantage of the
majority that the minority be edu
Gated to the point where they can
perform their work as nearly as
possible. If the farm boys are not
trained, our land soon goes into
the hands of aliens, many of whom
are practical farmers and many Of
whom have had scientific instruc-
tion. To secure results, the agrl-
CULTURAL schools must be well equip
ped, otherwise our boys and girls
will drift into the literary schools
which do not fit them for practical
vocations. We need no more liter
airy schools, but we do need scien-
tifcally trained farmers"
Mr.. Mobely declared that So per
cent of the school children of
Arkansas attended school IN the rur-
al institutions. 81 think it is as
Important" he said, "that the IS
per cent be educated for their pro-
fessiOns, as well as the Is. Broad
ly speaking, there are two kinds of
education, the classic or general,
and the ayocational. The classic
education fits no one for the prac-
tical side of life. From the com
pilation of statistics, it is discover.
ed that the average salary of the
generally educated man is some
thing over $500 year, about Sll
week. The avocational system
is too new for figures to have been
gathered, but the trained man rules
in every community" He then re-
viewed the work of the Boys Corn
Club as an educational factor and
concluded with the appeal that the
agricultural schools be not allowed
to "branch out and graft upon them.

provides for additional judges and re-

A joint resolution which states that
a number of the state buildings are
defective in construction, as a result
of the present system of employing an
