GOOD FOR THE BOYS

Here is a paragraph from an article in Farm and Ranch on the Boys and Girls Club work in Ark ansas that gives Arkansas some of the kind of advertising she needs, and in addition contains some wholesome food for thought for our people:
 "The boys and girls in these clubs are doing more to advance Ar kansas than a horde of politicians. Six Arkansas boys last year pro- duced over 100 bushels of corn to the acre, the highest yield being IF. The cost of this phenomenal yield was Il cents a bushel and the profit was $148 an acre. The best yield of cotton in 1912 was 3211 pounds of seed cotton per acre, and eight contestants made above 1900 pounds. One girl can- ned products worth the handsome sum of SIP. The cost was $65, leaving a profit of S107. She had IF different varieties of vege- tables in her demonstration plat"

We are glad to learn, al- so, that Logan township is coming to the front in this respect. Some excellent work has been done on the roads in Logan and the over seer and the people of that town ship are deserving of more than passing notice for the good re- suits accomplished. The Journal is sorry that the same cannot be said of our streets here in towr and of some of our roads leading out of town. There is probably no one in particular to blame that we have no better roads ant streets in and around Newark yet when the matter IS preperl, considered 1t must be admitted that we are all to blame.
