Since the Indiana tourists returned

in for anything but complimentary re.
marks about the state and its roads.

ARKANSAS BANKERS
 HOLD CONVENTION
LARGE ATTENDANCE AT MEET ING-MANY PROMINENT
 SPEAKERS HEARD.
EXALL TELLS OF TEXAS WORK
Principal Topic of Discussion Was the Relation of the Farmer and
 Banker.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock-The Bankers of Ark ansas held their twenty-third annual convention last week
 Tie session lasted two days and every minute was taken up.
 Over 400 delegates were registered which was record breaking attend ance exceeding last year by about 150 Many speakers of local and national repute addressel the meetings.
 The most emphasized subject of the meeting was agriculture and the bank CTS relation to it. Speakers pointed out how the farmer and the banker should stand together in all things.
 Colonel EXall, of Texas, one of the invited speakers, described the work of the Texas Industrial League and it's results. In 1911, he said, $10,000 in prizes was offered, the first prize be- ing $1,000 in gold for the best results from soil cultivation. To show the i'm mediate results he stated that there was in 1911 a total of HOO contestants from 163 counties. All the prizes, he said, were won in IF counties. In 2O5 counties; among them 16 of the IF prize winning counties of the year before. In 1913 there were 1O,869 con- testants scattered over 205 counties, showing how the work had spread over the whole state.
 The league, he said, operated a free correspondence school of agriculture, employing force of 22 stenographers. He told of a boy whose father wanted him to sell his growing crop for mule worth $125, as the worms were bad that year. He urged the boy to keep in the contest, telling him if he balk- ed now he would be balky all his life. That boy, he added, won the first prize of S1,000.
 The Arkansas association voted to increase last years prize offers to $50 each in the girls canning club con tests, the boys coyn club contests, making total of $450 against $500 offered last year.

Proclamation.

We have passed through another year and the people of Green Forest have been exceptionally free from disease and disaster. We can lessen the danger of contagion by a little work upon our part in cleaning up our premisis, removing or burning the rubbish, accumulated during the winter months, thus adding to the healthful conditions of our surround ings.
 Cleanliness is next to Godliness" and every person should be interested in cleaning up his premises, lessening the danger of contagion and making a more beautiful Green Forest.
 Knowing the people of Green Forest are loyal, and ever ready to respond to reasonable requests, l Andrew L. Kinney, Mayor of Green Forest, hereby designate and appoint Tuesday, May 9th, 1913, as the second annual clean up day, requesting it's observance by every citizen and respectfully urge that all premises be thoroughly cleaned up that day; that all rubbish and unsightly objects and things be re- that all closets be given especial attention and liberal use of air slacked lime be made in damp places, under porches, and in the vaults of closets. Teams will be provided for hauling all rubbish, tin cans and other disease germ rescep- tacles. Dated April 18th, 1913.

THE plea of the attorneys of Odus Davidson, the convicted murderer of Miss Ella Barham, whose case is now pending in the supreme court, shows a cloven hoof of extraordinary dimen- sjons They contend that notwith- standing that they gave their written consent for the jury's verdict to be given to the court in the absence of their client, due to the fear of mob violence, that by this act the court erred to the extent that the verdict should be set aside, and that the case cannot be remanded for new trial for the reason such course would be holding a mans life in jeopardy twice for the same offense, hence Davidson should go free

Weekly Letter From John H. Page,
 Commissioner of Agriculture.


 In the heart of every man there is more or less prejudice against any one who undertakes to suggest a better plan than the one he is already using. No man will thank you for tell ing him that you know his business better than he. These facts have their truest expressions in the relation which now exists between the so called book farmer and the farmer himself. Every farmer, who in truth is farmer, feels keenly the attempts of the scientific farmer to show him better methods, which is human nature and would be true in any business. In any particular case which may arise the human nature position will prevail, unless there has been a concrete ex- ample of the parcticability of the other side of the issue.
 That is just the question; there has been concrete example of the practica- bility of almost every great principle of scientific agriculture in every com munity in the State of Arkansas, no matter how small. Every farmer in our State has seen it leguminous fertil- izers pay; that commercial fertilizers pay; and that scientific care of the orchard 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 hundred other com- paratively new ideas have common sense in them after all. The truth of which, nearly every farmer or anyone else, would have been slow to admit until shown, simply because the great majority of these ideas sprang from the experiment station work and dem- onstration work and were given to the farmer by the so called "book farmer"
 The time has now come in Arkansas when good judgment demands that we throw aside all our little prejudices and don the spirit of hearty cooperation with all those who are being paid to transmit little of the truths learned by experiment and especially to agree when we have so many concrete ex- amples of good practical scientific

IT is soon to be decided whether the "cure" of Dr. Friedman is a success as it's discoverer claims or whether it is fake so loudly asserted by it's de- tractors One thing is certian which is that it is pity that professional jealousy has been aroused. The white plague is so destroying that every treatment for it when advanced by a reputable physician should at least re- ceive sympathetic attention. To be sure so many "cures" have proved worthless that it is no wonder many medical men have assumed skeptical attitude towards everyone who pro- fesses to have found certain remedy. But all the same such a remedy will ultimately be found and it is not at all impossible that Dr. Friedman may fill the honor of being the discoverer. Most certainly it is to be hoped so for consumption is the worst disease the white race suffers. The next few weeks will probably show whether the distinguished German physician is suc- cessful or whether his treatment will be numbered among the many who have failed In the meantime very pathetic are the stories of comsump- tives begging piteously that his serum be given them.

Much corn of recent planting is now coming up and ready to receive at- tention. It would always be better if it was narrowed after it comes through the ground, running the harrow across the rows.
 Be sure to meet the great battles you are to have with grass. Wet weather will most likely come along and keep you out of the young corn longer than is good for the crop, but keep things moving so that you can be in the field every time the ground is dry enough to cultivate. Whenever the ground is too wet to blow, be getting your blows, tools, gears etc., ready to pitch into the crop at the earliest moment without delay. By keeping up with your work and all ways making preparation in advance you will be better able to win the battle with the grass and keep your crop always growing. If it gets too wet to blow and stays that way too long, take up the hoe and go after the grass and weeds, anyway. Don't blow when the soil is too wet. It will be hurtful to the growing crop.
 Now is the busy time to get busy and keet busy until the crops are made. Close application and unrelenting en- erpV will make a pood cron in the face of lots of bad luck sometimes.

farming in every community. Preju- dice is the worst enemy to progress on the farm. When a truth is shown, good judgment demands that we accept it or abide by the results. The fbook farmer" is the farmers best friend.
 In this office we have books on nearly every farm subject, and the results of thousands of experiments, the majority of which have been proven to be sensible by our own farmers in Arkansas. There are very few farmers who are able to buy text books or have time to keep up with the experiment work We are here for your service, and we have the experiencies of thousands of others in every phase of farm life, which are yours for the asking. Let us hear from you.
