Under the demonstration farm methods last year, the average amount of cotton grown per acre, for the entire state, was 844 pounds, as against an average for the state of 459 pounds per acre for the land cultivated under the old method. This is a difference of 385 pounds, or $10 in value per acre. The total cotton acreage grown in the state annually is about two million acres. This looks very much like the farmers of Arkansas lost twenty million dollars last year by not using bet ter methods of farming.

when they do not do right. They don't know that the governor IS subject to the power of the legls- lature, and that he can even be kicked out of office by the legis- lature upon the slightest preteXt of an excuse-which is the very thing the gang in the last legisla- ture would have been delighted to have done to Donaghey. Just a few years ago, the legislature came near impeaching Governor Jeff Davis simply because he was goat-headed enough to butt into things in a way not to the liking of the legislature.
 Governor Donaghey is too smart a man and too level-headed to make a fool of himself, and 1t will take a smoother bunch than Web Covington's gang of booze dis pensers to lead Donaghey into a trap.
The Newark journal., 1912-03-01

Why don't some of our aspiring citizens initiate a law, to be sub- mitted to the people, providing for solution of the local legisla- ton evil that handicaps our legis- latures? An act should be passed requiring these matters to be set tied by the peopleafected, through their county courts or by means of the referendum. By this means the legislature would have only to deal with matters affecting the general welfare of the state, and the members would be enabled 10 concentrate their talents and en- ergies upon matters affecting the general prosperity and material progress of the state.
The Newark journal., 1912-03-01

Are the boys of our county go- ing to stand aside and take no in- terest in the Boys Corn Club move ment? This is one of the most far-reaching educational move ments inaugurated in Arkansas in a number of years, and The Jour nal regrets very much that so little interest is shown in the work in this county. We know our farm CT boys of this county measure up in every respect with those of other counties, where the work is proving so successful, and we know our boys could win distinc- ton for themselves if they would only take hold of the work in the proper manner.
