stated that they will appeal to the

 An effort will also be made to enforce the nonresident laws of the state. One nonresident hunter is reported to have sad that he would come into Arkan- sas early in October with a large pack of dogs and locate for the winter in Desha county. This party has been coming into Ar kansas for years, killing untold numbers of bear and deer and ln his private car taking them out of Arkansas. It is said it re- quires from two to three deer a day to feed his dogs. The Asso- citation proposes to keep close watch for this man and his par tv which usually consists of about fifteen members.
 It is understood the party claims right to hunt in Ark ansas because he is interested in some timber lands in the state The Association claims that the fact that person is member o1 a corporation owning land in the state does not give an individual the right to hunt under the non, resident clause.

Afternoon Closing Asked.

The merchants and business men of Newport are asked by the Fair Association to close for three days Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of our first annual fair next week for four hours during the afternoon or from to 5 o'clock while the races are on.
 Many of the employees wish to attend the fair and if business IS allowed to cease for those hours, the attendance will be greatly ln- creased and the fair assured a more hearty support from our own people.
 The merchants have found from experience that early clos ing hours do not decrease the volume of business but merely cause the trade to confine their buying to shorter hours to which all adapt themselves, working no inconvenience or tax upon either.
 So it will be in liberal closing hours during the first three days of the Fair. Saturday IS ot course not included in the re- quest. And we hope all our merchants will give the Fair that support which such a clos ing arrangement would provide leaving ample time for all out-of- town visitors to the Fair to dc their shopping while in the city Miss Rivers Visits In Newport

Why Raise Wheat?

The holding of cotton IS use less as a remedy for the present situation unless the South re- auces her production of cotton next year and hereafter by rals- ing foodstuffs with which to supply the farm. A surplus car ried over and added to another biz crop would only make mat ters worse. The surplus to be handled to any advantage at all must rely on a greatly reduced crop and the sooner this pros- pect becomes absolutely assured, the quicker will the present crop bring what it should to be a fair return to the grower.
 Then why not commence now, as many communities have done, to show that this diversificatlon is not mere talk, by preparing ground and sowing winter crops of wheat and oats. The farmers of this section have found win- ter oats a profitable crop well adapted to our soil, but few have experimented with wheat. The continuation of the European war insures a high price for the grain for another year at least, regardless of any increase in acreage in this country and Can- ada. So this is the best of all times to try wheat culture on suitable lands in the South.
 Wheat is more resistant to ad- verse weather conditions than oats and early varieties are best, because less apt to damage by reason of damp wet weather, Seeding should be done in Octo- Der and tests have shown that the yield from drill sown wheat over broadcast sowing is 3 1-2 bushels more per acre.
 l.. w. Osborn, assistant agronomist of the Arkansas Ex- pertinent Station says:
 Best results are obtained by blowing to a depth of six ol eight inches earlX in the fall anC working down with the disk anc smoothing harrow before seed ing. Seed should be sown at the rate of six pecks per acre."
