MAKE LIFE ON FARM
 MORE ATTRACTIVE

Little Rock, Feb. 23.-"Make the home life on the farm more attractive," declared J. l.. Bond, professor of elementary educa- tion, on his return from Fayette- vile where he attended the an nual school of the farm demon strators, "and you will largely solve the question of the town and city. There is close and intimate relationship between the New Education and the New Agriculture in Arkansas, for both tend to improve farm condi- tioEs and touch our boys and girls where the most good can be done in the process of their development"
 MT. Bond spent three days with the demonstrators, who are holding a two weeks session, next week. He reports t h a t there are sixty out of sixty one deputy demonstration agents present, with three district agents, State Agent Watson, and Special Field Agent Mercier. They are following a strong course of lectures and practical demonstration work, outlined by the College of Agriculture, with MT. Watson in charge. The lee lures are by men from the col lege faculty, and the round table discussions at night are under the direction of Mr. Mercier. The work is intensely practical, and all are thoroughly in earnest.
 Mr. Bond s purpose in attend ing was to interest the demon st>ators in the work of rural school advancement in which he is especially engaged, and he found them anxious to cooperate.

GOV. O'NEAL INSISTS UPON SPEEDY TRIAL Opposes Delay in the Jones Hearing at Montgomery
  COMMEND GRAND JURY Jones Refuses to Talk of Rowan Kill ing-Smith Faces Trial Last of Month for Murder-Arraign
 Jones Saturday
COMMEND GRAND JURY

Montgomery. July 1S.-(Special )-Gov- ernor ONeal has announced that he is unalterably opposed to any delay in the trial of c. Walter Jones, who shot Sloan Rowan on Tuesday night on a Western of Alabama passenger train, just as it was leaving the station. The governor will insist that the defendant be given a hearing at once.
 Jones was indicted by the Montgomery county grand jury yesterday afternoon, IS hours after the shooting. and he will be arraigned before Judge Armistead Brown of the city court at 12 o'clock Saturday, at which time a fay will be set for the trial. Jones refuses to talk of the killing, referring everyone who ap- breaches him on the subject to his law yers.
 It is expected that the arson cases at Benton will play an important part in the murder trial Jones, ]. H. Fielder, w. J. Bowling. Ike Cunningham and Steve Wagner are being held in connection with the burning of eight stores at Benton during December The defendants were given preliminary hearings at Hayn- vile in June, and were each released on 5000 bonds The cases will be con sidered by the Lowdnes county grand jury when it is impaneled the middle of August.
 Rowan was one of the main witnesses for the prosecution. At the preliminary trial he testified to the manner in which the stores were burned. Friends of Jones claim that Rowan had threatened Jones life and that Jones was forced to kill him in self-defense. This has led many to believe that Jones' attorneys will enter a plea of not guilty because of self defense.
 Grand Jury Commended
 The grand jury has been commended for its prompt indictment in the Jones case.
 A special venre for capital week has been drawn and Jones and Louis Smith. charged with the murder of w. Brooks Fuller will be tried during the week of July 29 Fuller was killed while riding up Commerce street in an automobile last month.
 Tn answering telegram as to wheth- CT or not he would ask for an immediate trial of Jones, Governor O'Neal who is at Uniontown. replied: T shall urge speedy trial in Jones case. l see no necessity for delay"

the erection of union passenger depot, for which the board of trade had origi- nally asked.

OATS RANK FIFTH IN VALUE IN
 FIELD CROPS; THIRD IN GRAIN

Washington. July -(Special)-The value of the oat crop is not usually rec ognized by southern farmers It ranks fifth in value of the field crops and third in value of the grain crops
 It may be asked why so valuable crop has been so long neglected in the south. The following may be given as some of the reasons:
 In the early days the idea prevailed that oats were not adapted to southern lands.
 Newly cleared lands having stumps made 1t easier to handle corn and other crops.
 The custom of feeding farm stock corn only as the grain ration became fixed and hard to change.
 Harvesting in the old way by grain cradle was slow and laborious.
 It has been fully demonstrated that most of the land Is well adapted to oats Much of 1t has also been cleared of stumps so all the improved planting and harvesting machinery may be used successfully.
 The old idea that corn was the best grain for stock has been overcome, and it is now conceded that oats is much bet ter food for all young animals and for work stock during summer months.
 The following may be cited as some of the reasons for growing oats on the south- ern farm:
 Oats on similar soils will produce as many pounds of grain as corn.
 Oats require less labor to grow and harvest than corn.
 Oats furnish the best grain for young stock and for work animals during the summer months.
 Nearly all soils in the south are adapt ed to oats.
 Fall sown oats is one of the surest grain crops.
 Oats may be followed by a soil improv ing crop such as cowpeas or soy beans.
 Makes a good substitute for cotton as a money crop.
