MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Somehow those words ought t(
 carry with them the idea of sum-
 shine and bright, crisp days, or, as
 in the North, snow and sleighbells and such.
 But even old Santa Claus does not seem to have the power to control the outside weather-the snow, the rain, the clouds and the mud But there's an inside sunshine and cheer that is all in human hnads and hearts, and of that Mena and her people are well sup piled this year. They are putting to rout the gloom without and within.
 For days past individuals and committees have sought out the needy-have placed them on Santa's long list and will watch that he does not overlook them. In some in stances conditions were found that called for more than the work of a Santa Claus-called for quick ac- tion by warm hearted men and women with open purses, and sure ly no people have responded to these calls more spontaneously and willingly than those of Mena. The spirit of giving is abroad among us, and The Star has gladly used it's powers to bring in touch those who need and those who would give.
 Sometime, somehow, when there is more justice and more equality in the opportunities of men-when each who will may work and re- ceive his just share-theTe will be yet more sunshine and joy in and less clouds and sor- TOW. That is the better day to- ward which all right-minded people are looking-are striving to estab- fish on earth.
 The Star goes out this Christ mas time bearing in it's every part the Spirit of Good Will and Love to it's readers and all hu- 
 May a Merry Christmas be your pOrtiOnl

OUR SYMPATHY TO EGGER.

All Mena can but feel deeply the loss that has come to the people of that thriving little town, Egger, in the disastrous fire of Saturday night. It is a sad scene that these people will have before their eyes on Christmas morn.
 Since the early days of Polk county this has been a prosperous, self-reliant settlement, mostly pros porous and taking pride in the fact that it was able to look after it. self, and all its people in any ad- versity that came to them, singly or collectively.
 The fire, however, that has utter ly destroyed every business house and one residence, is little less than a calamity at least to some of the losers, and if any aid is needed tc rehabilitate the town it is hoped that Mena will rise to the emer- gency and render all proper assist ance.
 In the end, there can be but little doubt but Egger will be rebuilt or better and more modern lines, and will yet learn to look upon their present calamity as the starting point for better things.

BEAUTIFUL SNOW, INDEED.

The snow that began falling in big flakes about o'clock Monday morning, made scenes by noon that were as rarely appealing as they are short-lived in this land of al most perpetual greenery.
 While the fleecy white covering lay almost four inches deep on the open ground, the pines were lowing with the grace of the willow under their sparkling loads, and roadway through them was become as an enchanted way.
 It all was sweet beyond descrip- ton in the powers of the ordinary mortal, and could but have taken a true poet into realms of ecstacy.
 It was a true salute to the Christmas time, and the one who missed giving it a moments thought and notice is in that much unfortu- nate.

Dedicated to the Good Fellows of

 Little girl? Stocking full as it can be, See that dolly on the tree, Swinging gayly, don't you see, Hair acurl2 When you say your prayers tonight,
 Don't forget, In crowded tenement That was surely never meant To be blessed with content,
 Eyes are wet! And a little girl like you,
 Just as fair, Waits and wishes in the Slums (She is satisfied with crumbs), But old Santa never comes
 Up the stair. Maybe it's too dark for him to see,
 He is old; And his eyes are growing dim, Gaunt the stairway is, and grim. Where she waits and hopes for him,
 In the cold. Whats the use to worry, though.
 If he comes? And when years have left their trac, On the tired little face, Maybe he will find the place
 In the slums. Clara $. McCulley, in Kansas Cit, Star

Somethinn tn Think Ahout.

l believe Polk and the surround ing counties are the greatest goat countries in the United States. In reading the AngOra Goat paper find that men are raising the An gOra goat for profit on land that is very valuable land. Then why can t we here, where there are tens of thousands of acres all around Us, raise them with profit? They need no feed-just brush. All they need IS shelter little cotton seed in the spring to the ewes about lambin2 time. It is true we have no market here, but there is a market for the wool and a good one. Go into the business and line up with the Goat Breeders Association, or Arkansas Association and sell your wool through them. Do away with the middle men and get from B cents to Si.00 per pound.
 Some figures that will show you in small way: Two years ago MT. Ben Bigge bought ten head of An gora goats and sent them out to his farm in care of a tenant. He bought them to clear up his land and they sure did their duty. Well, he lost three through carelessness, which was equal to Sl2.00. He sold and has on hand $i200 worth of wool He sold three goats for Si350, and sold me twenty-one head for $68, which makes $i05.50. He gave Si5 for the animals, which leaves a profit of S60.50 MT. Bigge told me he fed the goats about three bush els of cottonseed. Now beat that if you can. I bought the twenty-one head and am going into the busi- ness. Would like for my brother farmers to think it over. I have lots more that l could tell you that l have learned from other goat men. Will write again.

The following poem was written by Rabindranath Tagore, the Hindu poet, who has been awarded the lat est Nobel prize for literature. The poem is called The Beginning" and is from collection entitled The Crescent Moon," just pub lished by the Macmallan Company
 "Where have I come from; where did you pick me up?" the baby asked it's mother.
 She answered, half crying, half laughing, and clasping the baby to her breast
 You were hidden in my heart as it's desire, my darling.
 You were in the dolls of my ehildhood's games; and when with clay l made the image of my god every morning, 1 made and unmade you them.
 You were enshrined with our household deity, in his worship I worshiped you.
 Tn all my hopes and my loves, in my life, in the life of my mother, you have lived.
 Tn the lap of the deathless spirit who rules our home, you have been nursed for ages.
 When in girlhood my heart was opening it's petals, you lowered as fragrance about it.
 Your tender softness bloomed in my youthful limbs, like a glow in the sky before the sunrise.
 Heavens first darling, twin-bOrn with the morning light, you have tloated down the stream of the worlds life, and at last you have stranded on my heart.
 As 1 gaze on your face, mystery oVerwhelms me; you who belong to all have become mine.
 For fear of losing you I hold you light 10 my breast, What magic has snared the worlds treasure in these slender arms of mine?"

Green Feed for Poultry in Winter
 Time.

Green Feed for Poultry in Winter
 Do not overlook or neglect the hen. Her business is a small one it is true, but, taken in the aggre- gate, at the end of the year it is a big thing to the farmers of Arkan- sas. The hens are not doing much now. It is their holiday as we'll as ours. The price of eggs is high and fresh eggs are scarce.
 The best way to get eggs is to look after the hens a little. See that they can get plenty of fresh water every day. See that they get some meat scraps, ground bone and oyster shells, too, if you can. The most important is a green feed dur ing the winter, when there is no green feed. The way to make it cheap is to use oats. Fill a tub or bucket nearly full of oats. Pour warm water over them and let it stand all night Next day put a layer of oats about an inch deep on an old burlap sack, laid on top of some boards. Cover over with another sack, and spread on another layer of oats, and then another sack, and so on until all the oats are spread Then wet the whole pile every day or two with warm water and keep in warm place, where it will not freeze, until the oats sprout. When the sprouts get two or three inches long, begin to feed to the chickens, and continue as long as it lasts. You can get the idea from this and devise various methods along the same line to meet your own convenience in mak- ing oat sprouts.
 You will find this to be one of the best and cheapest feeds for chickens that you can get, and it will cause the hens to lay earlier and oftener. Remember that I have some fertilizer and alfalfa bulletins. You may have one if you want it. The fertilizer season is now here. or will be in a few weeks.
 Right now is the time to breed your sows. The pigs will arrive in the spring when the weather is mild enough for them to live and thrive, and then as soon as the grass is ready for pasturage the pigs will be getting ready to eat grass. They will grow fine then.
 This is the best season of the year to breed the COWS, too, so the calves will arrive next fall in good weather and get a good start be- fore winter comes on. Fall calves are better than spring calves. Think it over and see if you do not agree with me on this.
 A Merry Christmas to you all.

 Commissioner of Agriculture.
