terial increases in the acreage of al- falfa, due in part to the fact that con siderable alfalfa intended for seed was cut for hay instead in view of the heavy growth of the plant and the poor yield of seed.
 Potatoes. Potatoes continued dur- ing September the serious decline be- gun in August, damage being gener- ally reported from all of the more inn portant producing States. Frost west of the Mississippi and blight east of the river covered the important pota- to States within few days during the latter part of August, and have been followed throughout September by serious rotting both in the ground and of the harvested crop. Potatoes for home use are being shipped into hea " potato-producing territory in east ern and southern Michigan. The late crop suffered most; in States where an early crop is produced it was gen erally good. The Colorado crop is re- ported as being the best in years, though some western States report deterioration. The yield forecast Oc- tober 1, 368,151,000 bushels, is still slightly above the fve-year average though 64,000,000 bushels less than the favorable promise on August l., and 3S,000,000 bushels less than last year. The crop may be further re- duced through loss in storage, as the keeping may be further reduced through loss in storage, as the keeping quality of the bulk of the crop threat ems to be poor.

PURE BRED BULLS

There should be one hundred times as many pure bred Shorthorn bulls in Arkansas as we have at this time. The Extension Division of the Uni versity in the great campaign for more live stock will have four well trained men in the field for the pro motion of this industry, one man for beef cattle in the tick free territory and another for dairying in that same territory, both supplied by the Blu reau of Animal Industry of the U. S.. Department of Agriculture, and now a third man with principal duty in the line of tick eradication and live stock diseases is assigned to twelve coun- ties in the Southwestern corner of the State and Mr. J. H. Mcleod will after Nov. 1st be stationed in Little Rock and will help cattle men in Southern Arkansas in feeding demonstrations and in getting pure bred bulls from Texas or other tick territory. Then when Southern Arkansas get rid of the ticks better bulls can be intro duced from the north Arkansas is naturally a most perfect territory for fine live stock.

 Treat Externally

The old method of dosing delicate little stomachs with nauseous drugs is wrong and harmful. Try the external treatment -Vick's "Vap-O-Rub" Salve. Just rub little over the throat and chest. The va- DOTS, released by the body heat, loosen the choking phlegm and ease the difficult breathing. A bedtime application insures sound sleep. 25c, soc, or $1.00.

 These figures prove that Arkansas, as live stock State, is retrograding. so far as numbers are concerned. We have no figures to show what Arkan- sas is doing in the way of improving the breed. The values do not indicate an improvement; yet we believe there has been a distinct improvement There has been an increased value in cattle of about 25 per cent, and of hogs less than 20 per cent. The mar ket increase will perhaps equal this. No matter whether we have improved the breeds or not, it is important to raise live stock, and to increase in numbers. Our total of live stock. in- lcluding horses, mules cattle, hogs and sheep, aggregating 2,469, ,485 for the year 1911. Our total land area in cul- tivation is about 7,OOO,O0O acres or about 3 acres per head of live stock. | If all our live stock should be kept up and the manure saved it would not suffice for one fourth of our open land. So at this rate we are going to have to buy commercial fertilizer ev- cry year, if we maintain the fertility of the soil. In Germany the farmers are rated by the number of head of live stock, and not by the number of Iacrcs cultivated. The tenant farmers in that country are required to keep a certain number of live stock, and to save the manure for the soil. As a result of the German plans the soil of that country has been increasing in productiveness, while in this country the soil has been decreasing in pro- effectiveness. We must produce more live stock. To do so We must keep .our best breeding stock We must stop selling heifer calves and dry COWS lin the fall; we must keep our hogs for a year. We need the brood sows for breeding purpose, and we need the feeders to eat the surplus corn and peas, and for pork. If we have more feeders than to make our meat, the thing to do is to fatten them for pork; land if the polk is not salable to our neighbors, make it into bacon and sell it next spring, summer at good price. Do not sell and ship your hogs out of the country. Keep them at home. Fatten them yourself, or sell to neighbor who needs them or has feed to fatten them. Breed your cows and brood sows to good pure-bred males if you can: if you can't then breed them anyway. We must have more live stock. Live stock pays the best of anything on the farm. Breed your sows in November and December and get early spring pigs; and make a pasture for them through the spring land summer
