To every citizen of the state whose
name is obtainable, an appeal will be
sent for assistance. Each will be
asked to contribute 81, and if $4,000
can be raised in this manner, the
building cannot only be kept open for
the balance of the fair, but fresh eX-
hibits can also be sent out Right
now is the best time to secure hortl-
cultural exhibits, and they can be
transported to San Francisco in time
for judging.
Unless the response to this last APP
peal is as generous as anticipated,
Arkansas will be forced to close its
building, and be the only state hav-
ing representation at the fair to take
such action. If this becomes neces-
sary the good work already done at
the fair, according to the commits
sioners, will be more than overbal-
anced by the adverse advertising.

ming a lottery device and fined 500.

INTRODUCES NOVEL
CORN SHOCKINClPLAN
NEW METHOD is ORIGINATED
ON COUNTY FARM BY UNIT
ED STATE AGENT.
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
A novel method of shocking corn,
originated and introduced in this
county for the first time by A. D. Nc
Nair of the United States department
Of agriculture, has proved to be en-
tirely successful, Mr.. McNair told the
Log Cabin Democrat today. The first
experiment was made on August II
on the farm of J. A. Phillips at
Caney, when the corn on one acre Of
ground was shocked against strand
of barbed wire 220 feet long, stretched
across the field. After all the excess
sive rains which fell after August II,
the corn was examined Monday and
found to be in perfect condition.
Another half-acre was similarly
shocked on the farm of T. j. Crook,
near Conway, Monday.
The advantages of shocking corn in
this manner are that it requires only
four per cent of the ground and
makes the land quickly available for
breaking for fall wheat or oats. 1t
also prevents many weeds from seed
ing, thus avoiding trouble for the
future. By shocking the corn, the
fodder and tops are saved for winter
feed, and the stalks may be returned
to enrich the soil The new methods
of shocking is much simpler and
easier than the old plan, it requires
the labor of only one man for six

WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS

. The nervous system is the alarm system
of the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have a network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin-
ing. the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamhl
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to breakdown.
To correct nervousness, SCOTS Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing tonic force. It is free from alcohol.
