OVER 1000 CANS OF PRODUCTS SHOWN
CLUBS OF BOYS AND GIRLS
HAVE INTERESTING EXHIBITS ON DISPLAY-PRIZES TO
 BE AWARDED.
From Thursdays Daily

From Thursdays Daily
 More than 2,000 cans of products, numerous in variety, feature the dis play of the farm boys and girls of Faulkner county in the Hartley build ;ng on North Front street. All of the exhibits have now been received and are being neatly arranged for judg- ing. The awards will probably be an- nounced tomorrow.
 The canned products consist of both fruit and vegetables, in tin and glass, and were put up under the di- rection of Miss Myrtle Smith, county canning club agent of Faulkner coun- ty. While only IS girls are repre- sented in this department, the exhibit is a splendid one.
 Miss Joyce Adkisson of Mt. Vernon leads in both number and variety of canned products. She has on display 4O2 cans in tin and 35 in glass. Miss Mamie Hendrickson of Mt. Vernon has 2S5 cans of tomatoes and 15 cans of peaches on display. Special men tion is due the products of several ne- gro girls, who solicited Miss Smith to teach them, and show remarkable ap- titude in the canning work.
 Besides the canning club exhibits, Miss Smith has 15 exhibits by mem- bers of her girls poultry club, some very fine fowls being shown.
 Splendid exhibits from the boys corn and peanut clubs are also on dis play in the same building, a total of 26 boys being represented in these clubs.
 At the fair grounds a large number of pigs and pens of poultry are being displayed by the Faulkner County Bank club boys and girls and are at tracting much favorable attention.
 All of the club boys and girls at- tending the two shows were today the guests of R. H. Weems, assistant cashier of the Faulkner County Bank, at luncheon at the Hines hotel.
 The products of the girls canning club will be placed on sale after they are judged and the Conway School and Civic Club will assist the girls in marketing their products. House. wives are urged to call for these prod ucts from their merchants. The quail ity is guaranteed to be equal If not superior to the factory product, and the price is somewhat lower.

From Mondays Daily
 Announcement was made at yes terday's services that the elegant new $6O,00O Methodist church at Con- way, the pride of Arkansas Method ism, will be opened in all it's depart ments for the first time on Sunday, November IA. On Friday preceding this day great reception will be giv- en in the building, at which the pub- lie will be permitted to inspect it. The Sunday school rooms of the church have been used for several weeks as a place of worship, and it has been planned to complete the main auditorium in time for the an nual North Arkansas conference which convenes here November "A but the building will be ready, it is announced, about 10 days ahead of this time.
 The Methodist Bulletin of yester- day had the following to say about the opening of the new church:
 MT. Jenkins assures us that he will have the church auditorium in readi- ness for services two weeks from to- day. This will be great day in Con- way Methodism. It is day that we have been looking forward to for many long months. It is a great re- ality that, in spite of all it's reality, seems like a great dream yet to be realized. But we suppose we shall get used to it all and settle down to enjoy the great good fortune that IS ours.
 "On Friday night before we expect to begin using our new church, the pastor has planned to have a great reception. The entire building will be lighted and thrown open to the pub lie. We expect thousand guests for the evening. Everything will be done to make the time pass pleasantly and to assist the members of our church and those of our sister churches who visit us in getting acquainted with the various rooms of the building and their uses. Also it will be a great pleasure for us all to be together This reception will be given by the Board of Stewards. These men will be stationed in the various rooms and will gladly answer any questions, and will see that everybody has good time."

COUNTY AGENTS
 REPORT 10 COURT MUCH GOOD WORK DONE
JOHN l.. PHILLIPS AND MISS MYRTLE SMITH SUMMAR-
 IZE YEARS WORK.

From Thursdays Daily.
 An immense amount of valuable work, productive of much good to the county, is shown in the annual re- ports of John l.. Phillips, farm dem onstration agent for Faulkner county, and Miss Myrtle Smith, canning and poultry club agent, which were sub mitted to the quorum court here We'd nesday. Mr. Phillips explained that his work was necessarily not as eff fective as it would have been if the same man could have continued through the season, as some of the crops were almost ready to lay-by when he succeeded to the position at ter the death of John w. Earlier on June 22. Mr. Phillips submitted a report for the portion of the work done under MT. Earlier His own re- port follows:
 I have 65 farm demonstrators on my list and 496 co-operators, making a total of 561 on the mailing list. I have 76 boys in the corn and pea nut club work. Some of these boys lost out in the spring when MT. Par Her was sick, and by the time I could see them it was too late for them to make good, and they dropped out. But everyone of them is anxious to do club work next year.
 I have visited four schools and ex- plained the club work, and everyone is anxious for the work. 1 have eX- plained the club work in every com munity I have visited, and it has been endorsed heartily.
 I have list of 50 boys in the pig club, of which any county should be proud. These boys were listed by the Faulkner County Bank.
 I have visited BOA demonstrators, lco-operators and club boys, and spent a big part of my time with them in their fields.
 I have travelled by rail 521 miles and by team in the county 1,413 miles, making a total of 1884 miles. have mailed out Al letters, cards and bulletins, and handed out litera- ture on my rounds on every trip.
 have attended 10 public meetings and talked on the work in regard to demonstration and cooperation meth ods.
 have mailed list of owners of pure-bred stock to state officials Tn demonstration work to aid farmers to locate same.
 And with the aid of government of- ficials, we have been able to build eight dipping vats in the county for the eradication of ticks, and have the promise of seven more the last of the year, this number of vats being nec- essary to have the state officials take charge of Faulkner county and super wise complete eradication of the ticks in the entire county.
 The report of Miss Smith was as follows:
 have 106 demonstrators and 65 co-operators, making total of I'll on my mailing list.
 I have mailed out 1864 letters and l1.142 bulletins. 1 gave five canning demonstrations last summer, and was away from my work five weeks dur ing the canning season on account of illness.
 Up to the present time, have re- ceived 35 reports, which show that there has been 32,083 pounds of to- matoes raised and 5,O36 jars of toma- toes, fruits and other vegetables canned.
 I have made 761 visits to the club

MERCHANT BOOSTS
 CANNING INDUSTRY 10000 CANS TOMATOES
GROWN AND CANNED IN FAULKNER, ARE PURCHAS-
 ED BY CONWAY GROCER.
From Tuesdays Daily

Nearly 10000 cans of homegrown and home-canned tomatoes, over 5000 of which were purchased from one grower, B. R. Simpson of Vilonia, have just been stocked by Cole & Co.,, grocers of this city. The lot, which amounts to about one carload, is by far the largest ever handled here. The tomatoes are put in two and three pound cans.
 "These tomatoes are equal if not superior to any we can buy from the northern and eastern markets said w. D. Cole, Jr., today We have been handling this product for several years and have found it so satisfac- tory that many of our customers in- sist upon having the homegrown in- stead of the imported product. The only difference is that the tomatoes canned here do not have the rich red color usual to canned tomatoes. This is due to the lack of some element in the soil in which they are grown, but the flavor is excellent and the cans are packed so that the consumer gets fully 25 per cent more actual fruit. The Vilonia community of growers have become expert in their line and have learned to take the peel from the fruit without destroying it's shape, every can being filled and packed with whole tomatoes which are just as good as when first taken from the vines."
 It is MT. Coles opinion that the work of the United States canning club agents in Faulkner county has been of very little if any less value than that of the farm demonstration agents. "It is not the actual money gained from the sale of the canned products" he said, "but the variety it has given to the farmer family's diet through the long winter months is an inestimable benefit. Too many of our farmers have been in the habit of eating meal after meal and day after day nothing but salt pork, bread and perhaps a little sorghum. The canning demonstrations have shown them that they can have, at practic- ally no cost, delicious vegetables all through the winter that are just as refreshing and nutritious as those which come out of the gardens in summer. Physicians now believe that pellagra and many other diseases are caused in part at least by poorly balanced diet, with no variety. The modern methods of canning, as taught by the government agents, have come as a real blessing to the people"

Damage Done by a Hired Man

In the current issue Of Farm and
Fireside" contributor gives an inter
esting account of the losses that can be
directly traced to excitable and high
tempered employees. He tells the follow
ing story of a personal experience on
his own farm:
81 bought an Ayrshire cow three
years ago. She was what is called high
strung and a bit difficult to manage.
But the farmer who owned her before
me was cantankerous old cuss, as was
also his son.in-law who lived with him,
and calculated that at our place she
would quiet down. She did. Nv son
John and / handled her, and in three
weeks she would stand TO be milked. But
| hired man, and he was not even
tempered, and he had fights with that
Ayrshire and she gave less and less
milk, and she lost 1esh and l had to
sell her for SIS less than 1 paid for
her
81 discharged that hired man.
''Why, ne had nearly ruined two
teams. of young Pinto horses by his bad
temper; so | let the Pintos go too. He
had three colts which had barnyarded
it during the winter so afraid of him
that you couldn't get within half a
mile of them.
Now this man was one of the most
efficient workers it has ever been my
pleasure to see work, except for his ner-
vousness and bad temper. He knew how
to work. He was big and strong and
willing. He was not stable. 1t was
as if he were continually yelling Boo!
at every living thing on the place.

REMOTEST HAMLET CAN
See MOVING PICTURES
Made Possible by Unique Combination
Of the Motor Oar and the ''Movie"
Camera, Products of Two American
Industries

The remotest hamlet can now have
moving picture show. This has been
made possible by unique combination
of the motor car and the movie" cam
era. products of the two industries
which have made the most rapid strides
in American business history.
The use of car as the motive power
for a moving picture outfit is the de-
cided innovation started in the course
of the agricultural extension work be-
ing conducted by the Louisiana State
University authorities for the benefit of
the southern farmers.
A short time ago the government
furnished the university with moving
pictures showing the latest methods of
intensive farming. But as electrical ap-
paratus and lighting facilities were al
most always totally lacking in the rural
communities of Louisiana, where the
pictures were to be shown, the farmers
were forced to forego the educational
campaign that had been planned for
their especial benefit.
In lieu of adequate electrical facili-
ties, the university officials finally
solved the problem by attaching small
dynamo to the motor of an Overland
ear. A pulley on the front end of
the crankshaft provides base for the
belt by which the dynamo is run, the
picture machine being attached on the
opposite side of the car.
The outfit, which can be easily
handled and operated by one man, was
first used at the Louisiana state fair at
Baton Rouge, where the pictures were
shown in the open air. For eight days
the Overland motor ran smoothly and
without heating, although, of course
the ear was stationary.
The auto stereopticon, as it has been
unofficially termed, has attracted the
favorable attention of officials of the
United States Department of Agricul
ture, who predict that the plan will be
put into use in many rural communi
ties throughout the country.-Adv.*
