2O,O0O COTTON
 ACRES TO WHEAT
ARKANSAS FARMERS MAKING UNITED EFFORT TO co AFTER
 THE RICHER PRODUCTS.
Warning Issued to Credit Merchants and the Bankers of the State Are Cooperating to This End

Arkadelphia Nov g. That the cam palgn launched two months ago 10 in- crease the wheat acreage in tho cot ton section Is succeeding is evidenced by many shipments of seed wheat by the Philadelphia Milling Company w. N. Adams of this company states that his firm has sold more than 20,000 bushels of seed wheat 10 farmers in the various sections of Arkansas where cotton has formerly ben the principal crop. Fifteen hundred bush els were so Saturday, and every day secs from oue to three cars of the grain sent away to men who are pushing the project in different local ities.
 Bankers are strong behind tnc grain planting movement, and are actively engaged in E tting wheat to farmers. Realizing that little money can be loaned to merchants who fur nish the many cotton planters, they are fostering the growing of wheat as a substitute.
 Mir. Bell, cashier of the Planters Bank and Trust Company of Nash vile, has ordered his fourth car of seed wheat from the Arkade phia Milling Company. lie is one of the first bankers to take hold of the situ- ation. He is doing all in ais power to encourage wheat growing in his section, which is largely devoted to cotton. He says in his letter to the milling company that considerably more than 1000 acres of wheat will be sown this fall near Nashville.
 The Yell County Bank of Danville is running an advertisement in a lo- cal paper of that city telling farmers in that section that the one salvation is a reduction of cotton acreage. He warns that banks are going to loan but little money to merchants who furnish cotton planters extensive y the coming year. As a remedy tdey offer tS buy every farmer seed wheat, and if the farmer is not able to pay cash for same, notes will be taken, payable October 1, 1915, with 10 per cent interest,
 "Get husy and SOW wheat" the ad- yertisement reads, plant less cot ton and make up your mind to pay as you go in 1915 or not go. Yell county will never be prosperous as long as we depend on the one crop, cotton and merchants, bankers or individu- als who encourage you to plant as much cotton as you nave been plant ing and offer 10 sell you supplies on cotton crop alone are not doing what is best for thgms Tvs or what is 10 your interest
 Many other letters from bankers over the state read much lke the above. Manager w. N. Adams of the Philadelphia Milling Company says: "Tnc wheat movement far beyond our anticipation and 1t now looks k there will be fully 10000 acres of cot ton land in the state put in wheat the coming year We hear that the state penitentiary is contemplating the planting of from 400 to 5oo acres of wheat. Some of the largest cotton planters in the state are buying from 250 10 $50 bushels of seed wheat for the purpose of testing it out'

GENUINE HONG HORNS. !"
Seen With tot Ranch Show Have Been
 Selected With Greatest Care

"There was a tme,' says Joseph (. Miller, the ranclman, when thou sands of long horned cattle roamed the prairies of Mexico and Texas. According to We authenticated tra- diton the original long horns brought to America were pure Andalusian, and were imported to Mexico by Cortez to insure sustenancc for his soldiers Their progeny gradually became wild and roamed all over the soutnern and western plains. In the early days in Texas they were more or less dumes- ticated and became an important part of the ranch products of the country
 "The long horned steer. in his nat uraI state. is long can and scrawHE and in order to make better seller for the market the long horns were crossed with short horns, and in this way the long horns of the old stock were gradually eliminated It is no longer possible 10 raise long horned cattle and when the great spreading horns occur il is simply a treakish reversion to a former condition. l. vii not occur more than once in sey- eral thousand cattle, even though they have descended from the old Mexican stock
 Taere is, it is announced, a bunch of long horned steers with the l0l Ranch Wild West Show, but they have been sought for and selected with infinite care. Among the more than l5.000 head of cattle now on the 101 Ranch at Bliss, Okla, only five longhorns were secured. says Mir. Mil Ter. One of the long horns with the show is said to be valued at sl,000 It's horns are seven feet, it is said, from tip to tip The 'ong horned steers will be utilized in the round up when the show exhibits in Hot Springs for three days. beginning Thursday, No yember 19. aud also in the prelimi- nary parade in the morning.

The parallels Of Jesus are marvels
Of unity and condensation, yet no nee
essary detail is omitted. This, per.
haps his most famous, is no excep-
ton even though it does carry a dou-
BILE lesson. Who thinks Of the older
brother when this story is mentioned?
Though designated the STORY of the
Prodigal," we need to remind our
selves that the word "p%rodigal' never
once occurs in the story. The open
ing sentence speaks Of a father and
of two sons. 1t is really the parable
of a perfect father, the unwilling OF
the true heart of God. Against that
background is set off a s~elf-centered
son lacking in natural affection. Also
alongside the hayward son Is the mis-
erly, selfish n who lacked all the
good qualities of his brother, but who
was truly a wanderer and out of har-
mony with God the Father. In the
background we see the citizens OF
the far country who helped this young
Jew to his place Of want, famine and
degradation. Remember, 1t is our
Lord speaking to Jews. When the
Gentiles of the far country sent him
to feed swine they insulted him by
compelling him to get his living
through an occupation instincttvely

alcoholism. The several sons of this
man came to this physician to learn
their chance of escaping the disease.
He told them that If they kept abso-

was good, but. If they took alcohol at
all he would not answer for them. All
but one Of these sons have kept away
from the drug. alcohol, but one while
at college felt strong in his power to
take it moderately" He has no
power now. That youth might have
been the guest "jollied' by a charming

FIVE BILLION DOLLARS WASTED.

The total amount received from all
sources from the traffic, including
duties on imports, is less than $780,

the cost Of public care for the conse-
