URGES FARMERS TO CUT
 COTTON ACREAGE HALF
WEEKLY LETTER OF JOHN H PAGE, AGRICULTURAL COM
 MISSIONER OF ARKANSAS.

Since 1 have been your commits sioner I have tried to have something of value and interest to say to the people in each weekly letter. In each one there has been one main point. 1 now want to emphasize some of the main points. l want you to remem- Der them, and some of you try them out
 The farmers of Arkansas should plant less than half as much cotton next year as this. If you don't re- duce your cotton crop, you cant raise enough other crops to make you a sue eessful farmer So arrange your crops so that you will not have to buy a single thing that is produced on the farm except sugar. Abandon cotton altogether as soon as possible. Other crops pay better Arkansas is a great alfalfa state. 1t will grow on almost any kind of soil. Study alfalfa and how to grow it. It is the foundation of successful stock raising. It is 8 money maker without stock. It will grow three to four tons to the acre and $2 ton will pay for the cutting You know what it is worth. Figure for yourself, and you will see that il will beat cotton crop too bad to talk about. Then plant plenty of corn You need corn to go with alfalfa The two make good balanced ration for horses, cattle and hogs. Now is the time to prepare your land for al falfa. Sow it any time you like be tween now and October IS.
 Sow some burr clover or winter vecht for a winter pasture for hogs and cattle Either one will pay bet ter than any crop you had this sum- n1er if you have the stock to pasture Give attention to good cattle and hogs at once. Get some good males and cross them with the grades and scrubs. It don't take long for good blood to tell. Remember that hogs and cattle are the surest and best money on the farm now. There is not enough livestock in the United States to furnish a supply for the inhabi- .ants for six months. If you had vour proportionate percapita amount If the fresh meat supply in Arkansas,

Foods That Bind
Little Children
Start Them of Right With a
Good Laxative and Then
Watch Their Diet.

Mothers are often unconsciously very
careless about the diet Of their children.
forcing all to eat the same foods. The
fact Is that all foods do not agree alike
with different persons. Hence. avoid
what seems TO constipate the child or
to give 1t indigestion. and urge IT to
take more Of what Is quickly digested.
II the child shows a tendency to con-
stipation II should Immediately be given
q mild laxative to help the bowels. BY
this is not meant a physic or purgative.
for these should never be given to chill
dren, NOR anything like salts. pills. etc.
What the child requires is simply a
small. dose Of the gentiest Of medicines.
such as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
which in the opinion of thousands Of
watchful mothers is the ideal remedy
for any child showing a tendency to
constipation. So many things can hap
pen to constipated child that care is
necessary Colds. piles. headaches
sleeplessness, and many other annoy
ances that children should not have can
usually be traced to constipation.
Many OF Americas foremost families
are never without Syrup Pepsin, be-
