FATHER
FEARS FOUL PLAY

Fearing that foul play was commit

Campbell, the young man who was
found dead some days ago beside the
Iron Mountain tracks near Tillar, has
spent some time Investigating the
death. Young Campbell has been en-
ployed at McGehee, and according to
his father, had purchased a ticket
from that place to Pine Bluff. At
Tillar it seems he was put off the
train, but for what reason, nothing as
yet has been learned. All that is
known is that he started to walk
back to McGehee and is supposed to
have been struck by freight train.

LETS ALL TRY IT

If you like the old town, tell 'em so. If you'd have her lead the rest, help her grow. When there's anything to do, let the fellows count on you; you'll feel bully when you're through, don't you know. If you want to make a hit, get a name. If the other fellows hit, who's to blame? Spend your money in the town where you pull the sheckels down. If you're used to giving knocks, change your style; throw bouquets instead of rocks for awhile. Let the other fellow roast; shun him as you would a ghost; meet his hammer with smile. When a stranger from afar comes along, tell him who and what we are, good and strong; needn't flatter never bluff; tell the truth for that's enough; join the boosters they're the stuff; we belong.

DR. EVANS WINS SUIT

The suit of Miss Myrtle Ladd of Magness against Dr. A. A. Evans of this place, which was tried in the circuit court at Batesville this week, resulted in a verdict in fav- or of Dr. Evans.
 Miss Ladd sued Dr. Evans for $7,500 damages for slander, alleg- ing that he circulated false and slanderous statements affecting her character. Dr. Evans denied the charges entirely, and the tes- timony at the trial of the case completely exonerated him. The jury returned a verdict in his fa- vor, after having been out only fifteen minutes.

Happenings of Local Interest

life, as light and heat proclaim tL sun from which they radiate. Hap pineSs consists not of having but of being; not of possessing but of enjoying. It is the warm glow of a heart at peace within itself. A martyr at the stake may have happiness that a king on his throne might envy. Man is the creator of his own happiness. It is the aroma of a life lived in har- mony with high ideals. For what a man has, he may be dependent upon others; what he is, rests with him alone. What he obtains in life is but acquisition; what he attains is growth. Happiness is the souls joy in possession of the intangible.

SMELLING WOODS TO
 SAVE THE COUNTRY
0ubernatorial Aspirants are TeIi- ing Dear People How We'll
 They Love 'em

The gubernatorial campaign, the first of the kind in the history of the state, started this week, Judge Hays opening Monday at Fayetteville, and Col. Brundidge Thursday at Conway. Each was given a most cordial reception. Other points visited this week by Judge Hays are Rogers, Benton vile. Eureka Springs, Berryville, Green Forest, Harrison, Bergman, Yellville, Cotter and Mountain Home. This is all in a part of the state in which Judge Hays is not known. Other places visited this week by Col. Brundidge are Morrilton, Clarksville, Russellville, and Ozark. Col. Brundidge is known at all of these places, in fact, so thoroughly has he canvass ed the state that 1t would be diff cult to select a section where he is not well known.
 Coh Brundidge has invited Judge Hays to meet him at any of his appointments, but Judge Hays has declined, saying that there are no issues between them so vitally affecting the welfare of the public that it is necessary or even expedient to resort to the old-time method of joint discus sions. It Is hoped, however, that they may hold a few joint debates before the close of the campaign on June q.
 Well win easy" is the attitude of both the Brundidge and the Hays headquarters in Little Rock, whence the state is being flooded with literature and personal let ters. Former Speaker K. F. Mil wee is in charge of the Searcy statesman's headquarters, and IS natural optimist; Hon. M. F. Dick inson, of Paraguold, is cheif engi- neer of the Hays bandwagon, and he says there is no question of the success of the Camden jurist. And this leaves 1t up to the voters.

MAY BE FIRST TO
 BE ELECTROCUTED
James Scott, Young Farmer, Found Guilty of Staying
 Wife at JonesbOro

Jonesboro, April 28.-James Scott, a young farmer of this county, may be the first to die in the electric chair in Arkansas. He must pay the death penalty for the murder of his wife, whom he confessed to having beaten to death with a stick of stovewood. A jury in the Circuit Court here brought in verdict finding him guilty of murder in the first degree. Scott's attorneys based their defense on a contention that the man is insane.
 According to the testimony, Scott and his wife lived at Cash, about 20 miles from Jonesboro. He returned to his home one even- ing about a month ago, and seiz- ing his wife by the hair, beat her into an unconscious condition with a stick of wood. She was found in a dying condition a short while later. Scott was arrested and, ac- cording to officers, declared that he had killed his wife, and was willing to pay the penalty, but when the trial was begun entered a plea of insanity.

PREJUDICE SERIOUS
 ENEMY TO FARMER
Page Wants Farmers to Cooper ate With State Department
 For Better Farming

In the heart of every man there is more or less prejudice against anyone who undertakes to suggest a better plan than the one he IS already using. Few men will thank you for telling them that you know their business better than they do. These facts have their truest expression in the rela- ton which now exists between the so-called book farmer and some of our farmers. But this should not be so.
 There has been a concrete ex- ample of the practicability of al- most every great principle of scientific farming in every con- munity in the State. Every farm CT in the State has seen 1t proved that rotation of crops pays; that live stock pays; that leguminous fertilizers pay; that commercial fertilizers pay; that care of the or chard pays; that cotton IS not the only money crop that can be grown in Arkansas; that seed selection pays; that shallow cultivation and lots of it pays; and that a number of other comparatively new ideas have good common sense in them. Yet the majority of these ideas sprang from the experiment station work and were given the farmers by the so-called book farmer.
 The time has now come in Ark ansas when good judgment de- mands that we throw aside all our little prejudices and take up the spirit of hearty o-operation with all those who are being paid to transmit a little of the truths learned by experiment and especi- ally when we have so many con- crete examples of good practical scientific farming in every com munity. Prejudice is the worst enemy to progress on the farm. When a truth IS shown, good judg- ment demands that we accept 1t or abide by the results. The book farmer" is the farmers best friend.
 In this office we have books on nearly every farm subject, and the results of thousands of experi- ments, the majority of which have been proven to be sensible by our own farmers in Arkansas. There are very few farmers able to buy text books or have time to keep up with the experiment work. We are here for your ser vice and we have the experiences of thousands of others in every phase of farm life, which are yours for the asking. Let us hear from you. JOHN H. PAGE.
 Commissioner of Agriculture.
