SEED AND FEED
 E--R|DL|NC'S
Better Than Ever for 1913.

It has been a good many years since Ridling's began to be rec Ognized as The Seed and Feed Store of not only Mena, but of Polk county and this part of Arkansas. And each year it has grown in size, strength and the class of goods handled-always aiming at a point that assured the best for it's cus- toners and at prices as low as could be had with the quality.
 For the season of 1913 this posi- ton has been greatly strengthened. By constant study of the market and where the very best seeds of all kinds could be had, it has this year bought larger stock than ever handled in Mena, and, better yet, at prices that are especially favorable. This covers all kinds, but at this time especial attention is called to Grass Seeds. The lead CTS are Orchard Grass, Blue Grass and Bermuda.
 The successful growing of alfal- ia is often defeated by inferior seed. We have the best this season that ever came to Mena. Also a big stock of Clovers of all kinds, Tim othy and Red Top, Millet and Sorg- hum Cane, Kaffir Corn and Milo Maize, Dwarf Essex, Rape, etc.
 In Oats we have the Red Rust Proof and White.
 Will make a specially of Seed Corn in varieties best suited to this climate, particularly the Johnson County White and Southern Beau ty. A good deal of this will be seed grown in Polk county, always founC to be an advantage.
 Everything in Garden Seeds can be had in this store, and no one will have complaint as to prices.
 Will be prepared to supply the best in Chicken Feed, for the little chicks and the big ones, as we'll as general chicken supplies.
 There is absolutely no good ex- euse for anyone to send out of town for these this year.
 Bought Feed Ahead.
 All last fall. when the prices on feed were low, Ridling's Store was stocking up. At this time, with the market prices nearly 50 per cent higher than then it has in ware house 1000 bales of the very best hay, and is almost as we'll fixed in other feedstuffs.
 This is the reason it can adver- tise and sell feed a little better in quality at little less price than others.

MISS ANNA HUDGINS MARRIED.
Weds Dr. B. P. Randolph of Hot
 Springs at New Boston, Tex.

Miss Anna Hudgins, daughter of Mrs. J. c. Hudgins, and one of the most highly esteemed young wom- en of Mena and Polk county, was welded Sunday afternoon at 4:45 o'clock in New Boston, Tex, to pr. B. P Randolph of Hot Springs. She was accompanied to New Boston by Mrs. Bennett Jackson, who re- turned home immediately following the ceremony.
 pr. Randolph is one of the lead ing physicians of Hot Springs, and is said to be quite wealthy. He was in Mena several weeks early last summer, driving over with hand some team that attracted much at tention on our streets and drives. During that time the couple were much together, and the associations of those days evidently only devel- oped and ripened into love by the separation since.

Delegates Have Full Power.

London, Jan. 20.-Full power to declare. the resumption of hostili- ties against Turkey was telegraphed today to pr. s. Daneff, leader of the Bulgarian delegation and his col leagues, by the Bulgarian premier, U. s. Guechoff, who told them to exercise it whenever, in their opin- ion. further peace negotiations be- came useless.
 Representatives of the Balkan al lies will therefore directly notify General Savoff, Bulgarian com mander-in-chief, that the armistice has come to an end as soon as it becomes apparent that there is no hope of the peace plenipotentiaries reaching mutually satisfactory arrangement. Hostilities will then be begun four days afterwards.

AID FOR T. E. LAMBERT.
Special Pension Bill Passed in
 Lower House.

Special to The Star.
 Little Rock, Jan. 22.-The T. E.. Lambert pension bill passed the House today.
 Mir. Lambert is a resident of Mena, and as a Confederate soldier came before the local pension board a year ago asking for a pen sion. It was not allowed, and the same course was followed this year when Lambert was represented by Attorney Burt Stuart.
 It is said that Representative J. R. Neal then took the matter up and prepared a bill making an ap- propriation of si00 to Lambert, and it probably is the measure that was acted upon.

neceived As to Adrianople.

London, Jan. 20.-The Bulgarians have discovered they were com pletely misled in regard to condi- tions prevailing in the beleaguered Turkish fortress of Adrianople and have consequently decided that a prompt change in their policy is necessary.
 Two weeks ago they were in- formed that the fall of the fortress could be expected hourly, but a re- cent council of war held at Musta- pha Fash under the presidency of King Ferdinand came to the con- clusion that Shukri Pasha, Turkish commander in Adrianople, had economized supplies in the fortress to such an extent that the garrison would be able to resist perhaps for several months more.
 Shukri pasha, it appeared, de- luded the Bulgarians by false re- ports spread by supposed deserters who reached the Bulgarian lines drawn around the city.
 Commanders of the Bulgarian forces now know the truth and Bull garia has determined to force a speedy solution so as 10 put an end to the heavy expenditure and per- init the men under arms who com prise virtually all the able bodied male population of Bulgaria to re- turn to agricultural work. Other wise it is feared the next harvest will be lost.
 The next meeting of the ambas- sadors of the European powers al the British foreign office has been postponed until Wednesday. owing to the absence from town of two of the ambassadors. g,s

MOTOR CAR OVERTURNED.
w. A. Christopher and John Banks
 Injured Near Heavener.

w. A. Christopher received a bad cut on his left leg and probably has a broken rib and John Banks was severely bruised when their rail- way motor car left the track Tues day morning about four miles out of Heavener, on the Arkansas Western railway. MT. Chirtopsher and Mr. Banks were on their way to Waldron to look after their tie business. The accident was caused by a bolt breaking and letting one of the small guide wheels loose so it came off.
 They went on to Waldron after the accident, and did not think they had received very serious in- jury than the cut suffered by MT. Christopher.

 And, if for the most part of year it had been advertised all over the state that a body of Mena busi- ness men were to give premiums to two boy winners of any contest, they would not wait until alI the advertising had been done and the premiums asked for to deny re- sponsibility.
