tkfs E.4 t-f tts .,'sttsEs COMING MEETING OF STOCK
 GROWERS
Commissioner.

Farmers who have attended pre- vious meetings of the Arkansas Stock Growers Association and know the value of this annual gathering of stockmen will bep leased to learn that there will be held in connection with the next convention, which meets at Little Rock on January II, 12 and 13, an exhibition of cattle and hogs and an auction sale of pure bred stock on each afternoon of the three days.
 Speakers of national reputation on every phase of the stock growing subject will be present to give the farmers the benefit of their knowledge and experience. The Arkansas Stock Growers Association was organized four years ago on the initiation of this department and it now has member ship of 800, including the leading farmers and stock breeders in each community. M. M. Rutherford of Sulphur Rock, is President, and Prof. V. c. Rays of the Jonesboro Agri- cultural School, Secretary.
 At the time of the meeting farm work is slack and the man who is interested in stock can well afford to come to Little Rock and get the full benefit of these splendid meetings. He not only has an opportunity to learn, but he may help other growers by giving them the benefit of his ideas. The most interesting feature of the meeting is the free-for-all dis cussion of everyday problems.
 Growers who have stock for sale or animals to show are invited to bring them to this meeting. Two hundred head of exhibition stock have been pledged. A large show room will be provided near the convention hall and after the lectures in the morning the rest of the day will be devoted to the show and auction.
 Shows of this kind stimulate inter- est in bIooded stock. On a small scale it will be like the International at Chicago, and the Royal at Kansas City, stock exhibitions which no breed- CT of the middle west would think of missing. Begin to make your plans to attend this meeting. If you have

|tt a. .h, ey tsstftsst EVERY MAN NEEDED AT
 POST AT HOME OR ABROAD

New York, Nov. S.-Because every man of their less than ten thousand lis absolutely needed at his post at home or abroad, the United States Marine Corps will not be represented at this years military show at Mad ison Square Garden.
 The army and navy will be repre- 'sented as usual, but the little Marine Corps, which is neither of these, and yet both, cannot afford to send even a squad to the 1915 tournament.
 The 'soldiers of the sea- 9921 strong by law, form the first line of the national mobile defence, and the navy yards of the United States have been almost stripped of Marines to furnish the landing forces for ships, the expeditionary forces for Haiti, the legation guards at Picking, China, and Managua, Nicaragua, as well as mann ing the permanent frontier defense posts at Guantanamo, Cuba, the Phil ippines, Guam, and the Hawaiian Is lands.
 Congress, at it's next session, will be asked to increase the Marine Corps by 1900 officers and men, and it is be- lieved that the request has strong backing in the ranks of the security leagues who wish to see the first line of defense strengthened so as to in- sure an adequate number of Marines at home in case of necessity.

HOT SPRINGS MAY
 KEEP STATE FAIR
Still Holds the Charter, and Might Decide not to Relin- quish It.-$6O,OOO for 3 Year Advertising Campaign.

Hot Springs, Nov. e.rThe an- nouncement that, steps have, been taken to bring the state fair to Little Rock was read with augreat deal of inter- est here today,o Whether Hot Springs will attempt ,to stage another state fair is a mattfr of conjecture.
 Officials of. the State aFir Associa- tion said that if Hot Springs decided to relinquish; claim to the, state fair, there is no sly in the state to which the people heFf, would rather see this event go to than Little Rock. Hot Springs, hoWever, has not relinquish- ed its charter of the State Fair AS sociation, and solar as is Known, does not intend to. The only agricultural exhibit held there this year was an exhibition by the boys and girls corn and canning clubs at. Wilmington park two weeks ago. The fact that the people of Hot Springs have raised more than $60,00O for a three years campaign of advertising is evidence that the people are united on pro- jects that make for the development of this city, and gives some hope that there may be another state fair in Ho Springs.

they patronize Sears, Roebuck &

How many publishers do yor

The Republican party can take
no middle ground on the temper
ance question when their conven-
tion meets in June. We must
have a platform that favors either
State wide prohibition or the old
precinct unit law. All recognize
that county unit is practically a
a failure. For the prohibitionists
it is but a step to a law of wider
scope; to the liquor men it repre-
sents the bootlegger's delight.
We believe the majority of the
Republican party in Kentucy
favor true temperance and there
fore Statewide prohibition. AS
a political expendiency we be.
lieve the Democrats will adopt il
in their after-primary convention.
