conditions right on their own lot than
they did in the undetermined sunny
south.
Despite handicaps, Joe's men are
well conditioned. AL of the regulars
are down to playing weight and forti.
fed physically for whatever hard
knocks the campaign may develop.
They are few points shy on base
ball perfection, but that is much
smaller, handicap than lack of condi-
ton. - -@-,'-
No fault can be found with the
pitching staff. Hendrix, Brennan,
Johnson and Brown are in shape to
travel with the best. Brownie WILDE
asked to work only about once in five
or six days; and on that diet he has
shown enough this spring to warrant
the belief that he will cut a wide
swath through the young league.
Taking the Feds, from every angle,
it looks like good start. The bat
tiers will be forced to provide only av-
erage attacking force early in the
season to back up the swell brand of
pitching they will receive. And in a
couple of weeks the offensive will be
due for increased crushing power,
with the batters sharpening their
eyes.
Buck Weaver has reioined the
White Sox. There is cause III that
simple statement for much rejoicing
on the part of south side fans. The
peppery shortstop has mis- uniform on
this afternoon for preliminary work
outs, with a prospect that he may
jump into the game. He has allowed
himself full time to recuperate from
that operation for tonsilitis and only
needs the mechanical work to fit him
self for the seasons opening. He and
Collins are both fast natural ball
players and should fit into each 9TH
er's style of play with little practice.

suits have been encouraging. Faber,
an entire game effectively and at the
close could have gone several more
innings with their full complement
of puzzle stuff.
There is an increase in batting
power, also, the Collins pair being
particularly forceful st. Paul of the =
American association was beaten,
to 1, the Sox getting ten hits to six
allowed by Faber. incidentally, the
Sox stole eight bases, which is good
omen.
Another Cub pitcher, Jimmy Law
ender, has had his first nine-inning
baptism of the season and he went
through it better than his predeces-
sors. Nashville could hit Jimmy only
four times. He was a trif1e wild, but
this is explained by the inaccuracy of
the playing field in the Southern
league park.
Today the Cubs are in Memphis,
the last stop on the journey home.
They will be on the West Side lot
Monday for game with University
OF Chicago.
Manager Bresnahan is catching
nine rounds daily, despite slight in
jury. Archer is incapacitated, and
Roger will have to do all the early
season work. Therefore, he wants to
be in the best condition possible, and
believes he can achieve the result
best through daily work His batting
has been powerful in recent games.
Bresnahan has been putting his

"Where Can l Buy
 Good Seed Corn?'

Arkansas needs good seed corn. At the present time Arkansas growers have disposed of practi- cally all their available corn of seed quality. Therefore, those who have not secured supply will either be forced to use the old strain grown in the home community or else will he forced to buy seed grown outside the state.
 Since many varieties of corn when brought from far north to a southern climate do not give good results, it is unsafe to de- pend upon such sources for seed for the whole crop. The cost of seed corn plus the cost of ex- press often times makes the the price prohibitory, especially where large quantities are need ed.
 Good corn growers should se- cure a small quantity of seed of a good variety from whatever source is available. The small quantity should be used in plant ing a special seed patch, which is to be used for the protection of seed corn for the next ten years supply. The small seed patch should be isolated from all other corn to prevent cross ing. Now is the time to take steps to provide seed corn for the next ten years use. If this is not done next year will only see repetition of present condi- tions in regard to the lack of good seed corn.

Farmers Club Organized.

Quite number of farmers met at Adams School House on Mon- day night, Jan. II. and decided to organize a Farmers Club for the purpose of fostering better methods of agriculture and lay ing stress on diversified" crops and the raising of livestock.

MAPLE GROVE.

Health is good in this neck of the woods and every body seems to be busy as bees getting ready for another crop. Nal Council, Alfred O'Neal and Charlie Law are all clearing up new ground, and Doug Council Is having a lot railroad ties made and hauling them to the Caulksville switch on the Arkansas Central railroad.
 Our school is moving along nicely and they have been hav- ing some spelling bees on Friday nights.
 Some of the Maple Grove peo- pie went to Loves Creek Sunday to see John Simpson and Mrs. Lula Jennings married. as it was rumored they would be married at the church, but the rumor was warped as rumors usual ly are, and instead of being mar ried at church they were quietly married and went to church.
 Mrs. Davis, of Ratcliff was buried at the Crossno grave yard on the 9th inst. She had fingered on bed of affliction for nine months when God saw fit to call her home. She was an in- dustrious, christian woman and leaves a host of relatives and friends who will miss her.
 Our peddler, John Darr. comes on Fridays and pays a good price for produce and sells goods as cheap as we can get them at Branch. Eggs were 2S cents per dozen last week and he is selling sugar at seventeen pounds for a dollar.

Road Maintenance.

There is no phase of the road problem more important than that of maintenance. The gen. eral impression that there are certain types of roads that are permanent is, erroneous. No permanent road has ever been constructed or ever will be. The only things about a road that may be considered perma nent are grading. culverts and bridges. Roads constructed by the most skillful highway engi- neers will soon be destroyed by the traffic, frost. rain and wind unless they are properly maln- tained. But. the life of these roads may be prolonged by syste- matic maintenance. A poor road will not only be improved by proper maintenance but may become better in time than a good road without it.
 The first and last command ment in earth road maintenance is to keep the surface we'll drain ed. To insure good drainage the ditches should be kept open, all Instructions removed and a smooth crown maintained.
 All vegetable matter such as sods and weeds should be kept out of the road as they make a spongy surface which retains moisture. Clods are also objec- tionable for they soon turn to dust or mud and for that reason roads should never be worked when dry or hard.

Need Government Contol.

The charity organizations of Fort Smith, in recent survey of the city, found fifty families liv- ing in dugouts, caves and shant- ies built of goods boxes.
 In one week last September a wholesale house in Fort Smith cleared $50, 900 on the corner on sugar. If the government had the power to make that firm dis gorge their ill-gotten gain,a good cottage could be built for each one of those poor families. Or had government control been in effect all these years. most of those fifty families would have had enough to build themselves a house.

Arkansas An Ideal
 Livestock State

 2. Arkansas is a we'll watered State, and has an abundance of living springs. of running streams and innmerable lakes, furnishing plenty of pure drink ing water, and in addition an abundant supply of well water is available in all sections at a nom- inal cost.
 3. Arkansas has an average rainfall of 51 inches. well distri- buted throughout the growing season, insuring ample moisture for hay, forage. grain crops and pasturage.
 4. Arkansas has mean tenn perature of from 54 to 5S degrees, evidencing a long pasturage and growing season, and insuring a mildness in winter that obvi- ates the necessity for expensive housing for stock that is so of ten required for stock in the stock growing States of the North, East and West.
 5. Arkansas has no blizzards of severity to do damage in win ter, no oppressive hot and burn ing temperature or winds to cause loss or damage in summer.
 6. Arkansas is a cotton rais- ing State, with sixty cotton oil mills, producing annually over 300, GOO tons of cotton seed meal, the best and cheapest basis for a concentrated feed or balanced ration known to the United States.
 z. Arkansas has an abundance of cheap and good labor availa- ble for stock raising.
 8. Arkansas has two modern packing plants in driving dis tance of much of her territory. and is in easy reach of Memphis, Kansas City, St Louis. Oklaho- ma City, and Ft. Worth, for marketing purposes. 9. Arkansas has sufficient transportation facilities to put her in easy touch with any or all of the best markets with moder- ate cost and little outlay of time.
 10. Arkansas is the gateway to a large part of the South now consuming large quantities of meat products. mules and horses, that must be shipped in from other States.

his wife died, hurried back to Mollie.

There is one thing, Margie, you
have taught me, and that is the fool
ishness of thinking that the light
that was never on land on sea would
be with lovers forever
"Oh, my dear, 1 wish 1 could feel
for Chadwick again what l felt for
him that day-it was the most glo-
rious and the most tragic have ever

about it. Chadwick seems to be just

81 think they are, my dear. You
see, marriage is woman's business
and we go about entering into it in
a more or less unconscious business
like way. Love is woman's vocation,
it's mans avocation, which is another
way of saying, Love is of mans life
a thing apart-it's woman's whole ex-
istence." Mollie smiled. She is al

"And don't you see, Mollie," l said
