CHAPTER 22.

CHAPTER 22. | Men, brethren, and fathers, hear y, my defence which I make now untt you.

 3. I am verify man which am 2 Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught accord ing to the perfect manner of the Law of the fathers, and was zealous to- ward God, as ye all are this day.
 4. And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.
 5. As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.
 6. And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven great light round about me.
 z. And 1 fell unto the ground, and heard voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
 8. And I answered, Who are thou, Lord? And he said unto me, am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou perse- cutest.
 g.. And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.
 10. And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto nae, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are apointed for thee to do.
 II. And when I could not see Tor the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.
 12. And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having good report of all the Jews which divert there,
 13. Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour look ed up upon him.

A BRAIN TiCKLER.

That Jefferson county people spend in other states each year for farm products that can be produced here the enormous sum of $3,54G,O00 is the ssartling revelation made by figures compiled by Prof. P. G. Holden, the noted agricultural expert here yes- terday aiding in the profitable farm ing campaign. Prof. Holden's figures show that the cotton crop of the county brings only $S63.450 more than the amount we send away for food and feed that should be grown here.
 This is brain ticker that shoul i set to working the thinking apparatus of the banker and the merchant, as we'll as the farmer.
 Inasmuch as Jefferson county ships out little farm produce, Prof. Hold- ems figures show that the county has a cash balance. of less than a million fer the years agricultural work. In ether words, by the present custom the Jeffersen farmer consumes every thing, except cotton, that he grows and then spends nearly all of his cotton money for other necessities. He's getting a bare living from the soil, when he should be getting rich.
 Not all the money sent out for food and feed is spent by the farmer. A great portion of the 3 12 million doubtless comes out of the pockets of people residing in Pine Bluff and other towns of the county. But this market right at home for whateve. surplus meat. grain, hay and vegeta- bles he may produce.
 With a soil incompatible and eli matic conditions unexcelled, Jeffer- son county keeps the railroads busy hauling to it fruit, vegetables, grain hay and meat produced in other states.
 Our meat bill alone each year amounts to $1,350,9O0. Is there any good reason why we shouldn't kcen most of this money at home; any req son why the farmer shouldn't grow enough beef and pork to supply him. self and still have enough to ex- change for cash with Pine Bluff peo- rls.
 It may be that we cannot produce the flour we consume, but this only amounts to $292,500 ach year, and if We produced our other needs we could afford to buy our flour else where and still have money in the bank.
 With intensive farming, according to what the experts tell us, it would

 Successful men all agree that it is not so difficult to make money as to save it. To reduce the food and feed bill is just as important as to in- crease the income.
 The important question is not how much one handles in year, but how much one has in the saving account at the end of the year.

The last epidemic of this kind broke out six years ago and was quickly stamped out by prompt action on the part of the de- partmelt Of agriculture.
 The disease attacks the eleven hoofs of COWS, sheep and hogs, and causes boils and sore spots on tongues, udder and any place wher1 there is no hair. It sprea,ls like Wild- fire, carried by rats, pigeons an1 even on the soles of cattle attend ants. The present outbreak was frs: found in Michigan late in October and within five days had spread into seven states.

The dial is expected to find IA wide field of useful

the possibility of mistakes such as taking five minutes

The chief advantage of the vertical dial lies in the
that in addition to telling the time the single hand can
