THE PEOPLE WILL WIN

Those who are working for
honest elections in Arkansas,
and especially in Hampstead
county, will come out victorious
in the end, never fear, and the
fellow that is on the other side
will feel very small. The great
bulk Of the people believe in hon
est elections in this country, and
the majority of the people rule.
Without honest elections we had
as well have no elections at all.
There would be no use in an
election where the voice of the
people could be overruled by a
few men who get together and
put up political jobs to further
their own interest, and no cit
izen Of Arkansas who has the
interest of his country at heart
will stand for such things. The
great bulk Of the people feel this
way about it, and they are going
to see that we have honest cleo
tions, or know the reason why.

Continued from first page
ample feed stuff raised for tina
year. From year to year the
same condition has existed. We
do not raise enough hay and for
age. And yet it is our cheapest
as well as our best feed, anC
Arkansas land will grow havs
and forage as abundantly and as
cheaply as that of any state il
the union. Let more attention
be given to hay and forage crops
and our stock will be better fed
and more salable on the market
and in addition we will find more
stock in the state and on the
farms. Let the bankers and
merchants take live stock as a
basis of credit on the farm in.
stead of cotton. and the landlords
encourage the tenants to grow
live stock and our general con.
dition will soon change for the
better.
| have seen a statement ema.
mating from some of the com.
mercial bodies to the effect that
Arkansas spent S75,OOO,OOO for
food stuff shipped into the state
last year. In the first place the
statement is misleading. It
raises the presumption that farm
ers failed by that much to raise
enough to feed themselves. That
of course is not fact. A crop
report for 1913 will show that
the farmers raised enough on the
farms to feed themselves and
more. The trouble was that each
and every one did not do so.
Some failed and others raised a
surplus. A perfect marketing
system of agricultural products
in Arkansas would soon show
that Arkansas farmers can and
will feed themselves and all other
Arkansas people, if given the
proper encouragement by those
to whom they must look for aid
in making their crops.
Since this statement has been
made, that Arkansas imported
S75, 100000 worth of food stuff
last year, [ would like to see the
figures upon which
the statement is made. If it is
an error, it should not be re-
peated, because it is damaging
to the state. If it is true in fact
it does the tate no good to be
repeating it.

The Statewide interest in

Accordingly" he says, every
farmer with any good farm seed
should redouble his efforts to
save seed of good quality.
There are many reasons why
seed should be saved on the nome
farm wherspossible. 1t costs
less to prod Re good seed than
it does to1g it from seed
house or a ghbor year after

followed fro4 one year to an
other, the crop yields may be in

because of a better quality of
seed. Like tends to produce
like. Good seed will tend to
produce good plants and by so
doing increase the amount of
forage or grain. A farmer who
depends upoHiastside sources for
his seeds is certain to introduce
