He used figures of simn1e nature t(

He used figures of simple nature to prove to his audience that by obtain ing but 90 eggs per year from each hen, with only 10000 hens to the county, the eggs that could be placed on the market by this state would az gregate in value an immense sum each year, and in addition there could be sold a large quantity of poultry and much poultry meat would be eaten at home, an aid in reducing the cost of living.
 Arkansas vs. Iowa. Because of the fact that he is by reputation perhaps the most widely known man of the entire party of farm experts which is conducting the campaign in Jefferson county, Prof. Holden's address was of more than ordinary interest. He devoted the most of his time, however, to stresslng the points made by speakers who had preceded him on the program, illus trating even more fully than they the value of putting into practice the suggestions made by them.
 A practical farmer himself, and a man who has for the past thirty years devoted all his time, thought and labor to farm work and farm life in the north Lindsey Reese, the first speaker last night, made an impression on the audience which will be of lasting ben eft.
 Taking as his subject the economic aspects of crop diversification, MT. Reese spoke in plain terms, telling eX- actly what has been done elsewhere and what can be done even more easr- ly in Arkansas. Using figures com piled by Prof. Holden and his assist ants of the field forces of the Inter national Harvester company, MT. Reese showed that Jefferson county sends away each year for it's supplies. the amounts of money shown in the following list:
 Meats, $1,350,900.
 Hay, $60,O00.
 Oats, $343,0o0.
 Chops, $249,60O.
 Corn, $291,200.
 Bran, $122,600.
 Flour, $292, 300.
 Canned goods, $179,30O.
 Onions, $24,375.
 POtdIOeS, Pou,'oo.
 Cabbage, $20,000.
 Butter, eggs and poultry, $193,ooo. The aggregate amount thus eXpend- ed each year by this county, he point ed out, is $3,546,00O. For her cotton and cotton seed, Jefferscn county re- ceives $4,409,45O. This leaves but a small margin of capital on which the comfy can work, he said, and he then made the point that the worst of 1t IS that the soil is continually being robbed of it's fertility, so that the farmers are steadily losing Tn potn directions. MT. Reese devoted much time to discussion of the question ot soll Ter, tility. and then made comparison ol agricultural conditions in this state as against the conditions in Iowa. He pointed out that the land in the t"' states is about equal in fertility; tha the seasons in which crops can p' grown are much longer in Arkansas and that everything that can he gro"l in Iowa can be raised in Arkansas which will still be able to raise co' ion as it's money crop.' ] "Think of it," he said. "Everytnlli' that is grown in Iowa can be growl hare in Arkansas. Everything W grow YOU can grow. Acre for acre You can get larger yields in Arkansa

EXPERTS TELL UF ADVANTAGES
 IN JEFFERSON
Continued from Page 1.)

Der of Commerce was the presence of Prof. P. G. Holden, generally referred to as the "corn wizard, the man who made two ears of corn grow in Iowa where only one had grown before."
 It is expected these suggestions will participating in the campaign in Ar kansas and that he would make every possible effort to aid in the movement in Jefferson county, but even as late as yesterday afternoon it was not der- nitely known that he would be at last nights meeting.
 As result of his talk at the meet ing, however, Chairman Boyce, who acted as presiding officer, took up a statement made by Prof. Holden, and urged that he confer with special committee named some days ago by MT. Boyce, whose duty it is to formu- late some plan whereby the banks and supply interests may extend every possible aid to the farmer who di- versifles.
 'ln naming this committed ex- plained MT. Boyce, Cit was with the understanding that there must be a
 
 farming in this county. The problem before us is a serious one, and one in which every man in the city and county is vitally interested. There are on the committee representatives of evely business directly connected with the agricultural interests of the county, and I endeavored to select men who are we'll posted on the needs and conditions, each in his own line of business. I am sure the members of this committee will be greatly a1d- ed if Prof. Holden will join them and give hls advice, that a plan may be formulated which can be put into effect, so that the farmers can be financed to the best advantage oi everybody"
 Mir. Holden immediately accepted the invitation and stated that he will be glad even to go to some trouble and travel some distance, to meet the committee, to discuss the problems and to aid in reaching solution o1 tho questions which confront the farmers and business men of the county. Arrangements for such con- ference between Prof. Holden and the special committee will most likely be perfected during today.
 Pigs, Calves and Chickens.
 During the course of his address Prof. Holden suggested and urged that every boy in the county ought tt own a pig, every girl in the counts ought to own a calf, and all the boys and girls ought to raise chickens.
 He mentioned that one county II Oklahoma has already started distrlb uting pigs and calves among the boy' and girls, and that it has planned t' give fifty chickens to every family boys and girls in the county II urged that some such course be pu into effect in Jefferson county, tha the boys and girls be thus started to ward the proper course in agricultur and farm management.
