A bank over at Morrilton re- gently published the following in one of its advertisements, and 1t contains so much that is good we pass 1t on with the hope that some of our Independence county farmers will read 1t and apply the moral. At your door in Little Rock is the best market in the United States for fat cattle. How many $100 steers are you going to fatten? How much corn, peas, potatoes apd bacon are you going to sell? When you buy corn, peas, potatoes and meat out of the state you are buying them from farmers who ride in auto- mobiles at your expense. You would not pay your neighbOr $100 per month to raise your corn. Why will you pay 1t to the other fellow? We are the finest, best state in the Union and you don't know 1t.

Too many of us want things we don't need, and that we don't real ly care for, but think we must have because other folks have them. We all struggle and strain to make a show, when all the neighbors know it is only show, and would respect us a lot more if we had the courage to be our selves. It doesen't mater so much about how big a house we live in, what our bank account is, nor what we have. But 1t is what we are that counts. And that's the rule by which we all measure everybody butourselves.

EIGHT SKELETONS IN GRAVE.
Discovery Near Folsom Residence
Causes Commotion For q Time.


Glenwood, Dec. 12.-Eight skeletons
uncovered in a single grave located
in the outskirts of Folsom. Wednesday
caused a big sensation in that little
town and brought a hurryup call for
Coroner J.. NJ. Donelan of this place.
Tho the bones were in a wonderful
state of preservation, being the bodies
Of six adults and two children, Cor
oner Donelan decided they were bodies
Of persons buried there years ago and
probably were Indians.
The grave was discovered but a few
feet from the home Of Samuel r. Cod
frey, a pioneer resident Of the vicinity
Of Folsom. A boy in going up and
down steps in a dirt bank near the
house necessitated during the con-
struction Of the place, stumbled owe d
protruding bone laid bare by the re-
cent wet weather and crumbling soil.
Mr.. Godfrey became curious and be-
gan excavation, u%ncovering the grew
some find not fifteen feet from the Jack
door of his home.
In Folsom, when the discovery be-
came known. it was believed for a time
that the evidence Of a murder had been
found, but Coroner Donelan declared it
his belief hat the bones are those Of
Indians. There was absolutely no sign
Of clothing, trinkets or collins. The
bodies lay as II thrown hurriedly in a
grave From h absence of molars in
the jaws Of the adults. the coroner
judged they were Indians. The bodies
showed no evidence of the cause Of
death. tho on n skull there was
what might have been a spot Of blood.
Mr.. Godfrey has lived near Folsom
for fifty years and has never suspected
the presence of a grave on his land.
With him at the time of the excavation
was Kirk Godfrey of Whiting, a roth
e-. The bones were retnteTred in Mar
tins chapel.

Ell PasO, Logan, Pueblo and the 6an
Luis valley counties have already ap-
pointed county agriculturists, whose
business it is to confer with and adviss
farmers on their own farms a. to the
best methods, seed, crops, industries
and systems Of farming. The work y
especially needed In the newer agricul-
tural districts.
AS practical measure it has been
shown that the work of the county agri-
culturist is more effective than that
of the demonstration or experimental
farm. Under the latter plan the latest
of machinery and the best of equip
ment is always provided and this does
not encourage the farmer who is noel
able to buy the same machinery and
equipment to follow the lead Of tie
demonstration farm. Under the work
of the agricultural expert the best fsa-
lures Of the experimental farm are
embodied - it is the plan to Arrange
with several Of the more progressive
farmers of each county to conduaA
farms under his direction.
