Fair Is A Necessity.

When the residents of Jack son county begin to look about them they become aware of the fact that nearly all counties in this part of the state have coun- ty fairs and they are all receiv- ing the enthusiastic support of the farmers and merchants.
 Just now, throughout the na- tion, the greatest interest is be- ing manifested in agricultural and economical education.
 The counties around us have taken up this interest before us. Their people realize that our boys and girls are deeply inter- ested in corn, cotton and canning clubs all over the land.
 They realize the need of edu- cation in the things of life worth living for, and it is with this same spirit of progress that the Jackson County Fair Asso- citation has come into existence. Tt shall be educational. It shall be demonstrative. It shall be

Marketing the Cotton Crop.
(Synopsis of Speech Delivered

(Synopsis of Speech Delivered
 by Hon. John M. Parker.
 Cotton is the one agricultural article in which the United States is supreme, and even in view of existing war conditions, it is the heighth of folly for the cotton producers to become pan ic stricken, and sacrifice their product at prices far below ac- tual cost of production.
 Our people should realize that seven and one half million bales of cotton at fifteen cents means greater prosperity than fifteen million bales at seven and one half cents, and all they have to do to realize the value of their product is to hold it, as far as lies in their power, and gradually market it as it is wanted by the rest of the world.
 Cotton does not deteriorate by being held, and is the one agricultural product fully as good forty years from now as it

entertaining, and well worth

entertaining, and well worth the while of all who attend.
 To the farmers of the county the call is now sent forth. Bring something to the fair, for some one else to see. It is the little things that make the big dis play attractive. These exhibits may vary, but ideas and tastes also vary, and it is this variety that is the spice of the whole show. One mall entry, if that be all that you feel able to prepare, will help make it what it should be. These little things are the component parts that swell the aggregate to completeness. Also, there will be the amuse- ments. There will be racing, music, free exhibitions and other diversions that will give the fair a we'll rounded out system of entertainment for all who att tend.
 The merchants will do well to continue their campaign of boosting and give this great ne- cessity a good send-off. i We can't afford to let the other counties pass us in the struggle for better civilization and bet ter citizenship.
 Germany is just now more than holding it's own while the armies of all Europe are against her. The fundamental reason for this is that the Germans
 were thoroughly prepared in their military. They were taught to fight from early youth. We must prepare for the great advance of America and get into the front ranks. We must get together.
 l The fair will be held October
 14th to 17th, inclusive.

5 the day it is ginned.

s
 The question of holding a reasonable proportion of this crop is one in which the farmer, merchant, banker and transpor- tation lines are equally interest ed. because good prices mean good trade and good collections, l and ruinous prices mean poor collections, bankruptcy, and hard times.
 In my humble judgment, as l far as possible, cotton should be held in the seed, because the ginning of any large amount of cotton will congest transporta- tion lines, and the sale of cotton seed and seed products, under existing conditions, will be at |extremely low prices.
 If the producer of cotton can succeed, with the help of the To- |cal merchant, city merchants, the local bank, and the city bank, to hold off the market, for ty per cent of his growth of cot ton for the current season, there is no question the result will not only be much higher prices for this year, but profitable prices for the surplus which will be carried over, and which will be surely needed by the Nations of the World.

SHOULD REDUCE
 COTTON ACREAGE
In Face Of European War, It Will Be Suicidal For South To Continue Cotton
 Raising.

DpSCldl tO IIluCpciiuSIlI' Little Rock, Sept. 3.-One of the results of recent conferences at Washington and elsewhere on the cotton situation brought about by the European war is a concerted movement to bring about a reduction of the cotton acreage of the South next sea- son.
 George w. Rogers, cashier of the Bank of Commerce, who was conspicuous figure in the con- ferences, has just issued an ad- dress to the farmers, merchants, and bankers, in which he comes to the following conclusions.
 "The signs of the times are plain; it will be suicide to go ahead and plant cotton as has been done in the years gone by, and expect the planter to be able to buy his feed-stuffs. The time has come when our cotton hungary must feed itself or go hungry.
 Tt is only fifty years since we had what we called a great war in this country; but in point of numbers of men engaged it was nothing compared to the present war. At that time, wheat jumped from 68 cents per bush ed to S3.85. Will history repeat itself? Are you willing to take the chances of going hungry ;? Now is the time you must de- eide. The banker, the merchant and the farmer must cooperate. They must work together for the common good of all; each owes duty not only to himself, but to his neighbor.
 l "If the farmer is so foolish as to say he is going to raise no. thing but cotton now-that he has raised it all his life-that it is all he knows; and as every body else is going to curtail the crop, therefore he will raise a large crop and get good price for it; the merchant owes a duty to the community in which he lives not to extend that man one cent of credit; and if the merchant is so short-sighted as to go ahead and extend the ere dit any way, the bank owes a duty to the community and itself to decline both merchant and farmer credit.
 "This is the only way and only plan of salvation for our coun- try.
 1 we are witnessing the great est war the world has ever known. Times will be hard. Every one will be required to make sacrifices, but if we are
 big enough and brave enough for each one to go ahead and do
 his full duty in the matter work-and work hard-look out flor himself and extend help to the less fortunate of his neigh bors, We will come out better, bigger and stronger than ever"
