Notice to Teachers.

The teachers passed resolution at the last session of the institute held at Green Forest last June, asking that first grade license be renewed only twice.
 Every first grade teacher who holds a license outstanding for six years or longer will be expected to comply with this resolution and take the examina- tion when his license expires.
 But, to encourage trained teachers for our school, will renew the license of any first grade teacher who will present certificate of three month S work done in any state normal school since his license were last lndorsed or of six months work done since they were issued. RUE c. GIBSON.
 The foregoing notice copied from the North Arkansas Star is clear and ex- plicit, and means that these teachers that have not been examined for six years or more must take the eXamina- tion this year or quit teaching.
 This action on the part of our County Examiner is highly commendable and will result in much good both to the schools and to all worthy teachers.

Fruit Growers Meet.

c. A. Ford, horticultural agent of the M. & N. A. roaI, filled his appointment to meet the local fruit growers here Tuesday afternoon.
 He found quite g bunch of growers on hand, who manifested much interest in his two-hour's talk on the various of phases of horticulture and we have no doubt but that much benefit was received by those who were fortunate enough to be present.
 Following MT. Ford's address and a general discussion of fruit subjects, a temporary association of fruit growers was organized with L. s. Shibley as president and J. l.. Russell, secretary.
 A committee on constitution and by laws was appointed as follows: c. |. Forsythe, J. H. Ingram and Arthur Grim.
 The organization will be perfected at 2 D. m. on next Saturday afternoon. All fruit growers of the country are uiSeu u bS pleoelIt at tllIo HleSCiDS-
 MT. Ford spent Wednesday examining the orchards about Green Forest and he finds that some' of onr people are well up in both theory and practice in orcharding. If all were of the same class of growers that few are this country would soon take front rank with good orchards, he says.
 It is suggested that all the growers make careful examination of their Elberta orchards and report at the horticultural meeting Saturday after noon as to the condition of the buds. Some have reported their crops as killed or severely injured by Saturday nights freeze.

Letter From Dave Watson.
High Grove, Calif., Feb 23, 1913. Editor Tribune,
 Green Forest. Ark.

High Grove, Calf. Feb 23, 1913. Editor Tribune, Green Forest, Ark. Dear Sir:-If you will allow me space 1 will write line so my friends can all hear from me and know where am at. 1 am in fine looking country and 1 am reasonably well satisfied. There is lots of money in this country, but they havn't got the habit of giving it away yet. If the freeze had not ruin ed the orange crop this spring, we would have done exceedingly well. The freeze and burn out have been pretty hard on us.A Things, however, are beginning to loosen up and l am in pretty good spirits yet. What 1 have seen since 1 left Green Forest is worth lots to me.
 There are several Arkansawers out here and they all seem to be well satis- fled.
 There is one thing about this part of the state that will please any one and
  that is the climate. It is ideal. The only thing that is bothering me just at present is that don't like to be so near the Mexico line. We can almost hear the shooting from here and 1 have not lost any Mexicans and 1 don't want to go to look for any and from reports that come in here daily things are get ting to white heat down there. I think Uncle Sam or John Buell. will have to take the thing by the horns one of these days.
 Well, if I had the time and space I would give you a sketch of what have seen and where I have been, but will wait and if this doesn't find it's way to the waste basket, I will give you my rounds later on.
 With best wishes to our friends and lhoping to see you all again, am,
 Respectfully,
 Dave Watson.

The poultry industry is of great inn portance in this country and should have more attention among the farmers. The receipts from poultry and eggs in Arkansas amounts to more than thirty million dollars annually. Last year it amounts to about thirty five million dollars. Compare this with the cotton crop and you will get some idea of it's magnitudes.. The farmes themselves, whose wives and sons and daughters raise the poultry, do not recognize the full value of poultry as farm asset.
 It will pay the farmers to build houses make coops and provide the proper equipment necessary to give the best opportunity to that branch of the do- nestle circle having the poultry interests in charge.
 One of the most profitable features of poultry is overlooked by the farmer. | As matter of fact, about the most profitable feature is for the farmer to eat the chickens and eggs products on his premises. A dozen eggs will weigh a pound and half, and a chicken the right size for broiler, will weigh two pounds. The eggs when sold to the country merchants, who in turn ships to the commission merchant, usually bring from ten to fifteen cents dozen and the chickens from two to two and half dollars d dozen. At the same time, 1 sides meat costs at least 15 cents a pound, and ham and breakfast bacon cost 20 to 30 cents pound. The eggs if salable at 15 cents bozen would bring only 10 cents a pound and the chickens would bring less. So why can't the farmer save money by eating eggs and chickens? Too many farmers overlook this contrast and take the poultry and eggs to market and sell it for less than it is worth to them if con- sumed at home, and at the same time deny themselves these luxuries.
 Sow patch of rye or clover near the house for the poultry, spend few dol l lars for wire netting to protect the young chickens from rats, snakes and vermin, and buy poultry remedies, and help the good housewife to the means of caring for the chickens, geese, turk eys and ducks. If the market does not afford a good price, consume the pro- duct at home and you will live better and save money. Remember the old adage, Money saved is money made. " 1 Poultry is real asset to the farmer. Treat it as such, and if you will keep an account of it, you will be gratified and surprised at the result.

Some Practical Ideas in the Cost of
 Living.

Some Practical Ideas in the Cost of
 Living.
 The Oklahoma boy of 13 who raised 102 bushels of corn on one acre at q cost of $145 50, including $500 for rent, sold his crop for $306. It is in demand for seed at special price, and it is to be remarked that he paid s4 a bushel for the seed he used himself. Another Okla homa boy, aged 15, raised 5000 pounds of cotton on two acres, and sold it for $250. The seed brought $200 more, making $460 as the cash return from the two acres. It is no surprise to hear that 1000 boys and girls in Oklahoma have entered the corn and cotton contest begun few years ago in the enter prising and vigorous young state whose productions have already put it among the foremost. A special effort is needed to give intensive farming start. An acre set apart for an. ambitious and earnest youth may seem side issue, but it's demonstration of possibilities is of great value.
 Many farmer plods along with much land but poor cultivation on his hands. Few have realized how much even one acre signifies. In the suburbs of Paris there are single acres that rent for $1 1000. The soil is utilized all the time and every square foot is kept under the highest possible culture. Other wise it could not be a profitable way to employ time and so much capital. On the basis of the Oklahoma boy s exp eri- ment the corn crop of this country could be increased from three billion bushels to fifteen billion bushels The cotton contest implies q like chance in that crop. It is said with truth that more workers are needed on the farms. A higher ratio of yield there is also some thing to be diligently, confidently work ed for The cost of living can certainly be influenced inA this way, and to the advantage of both consumers and pro- tuceTs.
