and citizenship while so per cent
of our farmers are actually receiv-
ing only a dollar a day Or less for
their labor.
Methods of cultivation by no
means entirely solve this problem,
for in producing profitable crops we
place rich land above all others
as the factor of overwhelming i'm
portance. However, cultivation
particularly at this season, is the
thought that should be uppcrmost in
our minds. Particularly is it i'm
portant that as much expensive hard
labor as possible be dispensed with,
and the cost Of production CORES
pondingly reduced. Turn to the

Raise More Stock

Fortunes can be made out of hogs
in this county without ever feeding
them an ear of corn.-The Mountain
Echo
The same is true in Sharp county,
and in almost every county in North
Arkansas. 1t would pay to ALLOW
more stock to grow on your farm.
They don't have to be grown, only
allowed to grow. Of course the
more attention paid to stock-raisine
the more successful it will be. If
the European war continues higher
prices will be paid for food-stuffs
and correspondingly lower prices
will be paid for cotton, etc. Europe
is already much more anxious for
meat to eat than cotton to wear.
The greatest use the world in Eu-
rope has for cotton at present is for
flags: before the war is over the SOL
diers will fight with even as ragged
flags as clothes.

W, A. Mediation, a tobacco raiser
from old Kentucky who had never
seen any cotton grow, has come in
to Arkansas and in a dr2uth year
has raised rs acres Of tie staple,
from which it is said SO bales will

Mediation is attributed TO this meth

Cats as Feed.

During the coming winter, corn
and feed stuff will no doubt be
scarce. People will be stared in the
face by the fact that something
must be had with which to feedstock.
Certainly the feed must be shipped
in from some other section. Feed
should be bought now as it is our
opinion it will keep advancing in
price. Oats can be bought at a
price Of about 81 cents a bushel,
including freight, and the value of
oats as feed for stock is greater than
corn,

LEOPARD GUARDS DEAD MATE.
sultan Grieves when Homesickness
Kills sultana in Zoo.

Iron bars broke the heart OF Sultana,
the big leopard brought from Tibet to
the Bronx zoo year ago, and yesterday
afternoon she crawied TO her outside cage
where the sun was warm and died. She
was still lying there last night. her big
mate. Sultan, standing guard over the
body.
Persons who stopped in front OF the
leopard's cage yesterday wondered at
sultan. He would walk a few feet from
his mate, turn nervously and go padding
back. A big soft paw reached tenderly
down and touched Sultana's coat and then
was as softly withdrawn, His head
twitched restlessly and the eyes would
move from side to side and then turn and
gaze off into the woods.
1t was nearly dusk when the keepers
learned that Sultana was dead. Then they
tried to coax Sultan away. He would
not pay any attention to food, and when
Keeper Schwartz tried to get into the
cage and reach the body Sultan turned
on him with a snarl and drove him back.
Finally Sultan lay down beside the
body. the only thing to remind him OF
the far mountains OF Tibet. snd watched

OHIO TEACHERS UNION
FOMENTED BY GOMPERS
lie Makes a Speech Attacking
the Cleveland Board Of
Education.

CLEVELAND, May 3I.-Out OF a mass
meeting at Wade Park. which was ad-
dressed this afternoon by Samuel Com
rers president OF the American Federation
OF Labor grew a movement which Is ex-
pected TO crystalline into union OF all
public school teachers in Ohio.
r "a work Of forming a State union
will start to-day. Its purpose Is to sup
port the grade school teachers of Cleve-
land in their fight against the board OF
education.
After Gompers and other labor leaders
had arragned the board OF education
for its action in threatening with dis
missal any teacher who joins union, the
9, 900 persons at the meeting adopted
unanimously a resolution denouncing the
board and pledging aid to the teachers
Gompers likened the situation OF the
grade school teachers TO that OF the early
colonists just before the Revolutionary
War. He declared that the board of edu-
ca don has not learned the lessons OF his
tory, and said that any attempt OF con-
stitutional body toward reEessEon must
end IN protest.
"I hone the teachers will be able 10 es-
tabllsh their right to an organization.

stitutional, legal and moral rights But

shin of the city OF Cleveland.
81 wonder, by the way, II tho board OF
sducation would have denied the right
of these to organize IL we had woman
suffrage"
Gompers referred TO the members OF
the board as 'fmperial magnates' al
"Casars" and "these new imperators." Al
every such reference there was wild ap
plause,
