ALL OVER THE COUNTY

I house Tuesday night. J. D. Jones made good speech on farming. He said that the farmer needed both praticaI experience and technical knowledge to make a success. Such a farmer can tickle the ground with hoe and it will laugh harvest. By experience we get the practical Knowledge and the farm demonstrations bring us the theoretical knowledge. The ones who receive no benefit from the demonstra- ton work are. First-The man who .ynows it all Second-The man who doesn't want to learn. Third-The man who has nothing to learn With. Like the OWL he has been used to dark ness so long that the light hurts his owlish eyes and makes him blink so that he cannot see. MT. Jones says that the modern farmer performs the miracle of making bread from a stone Dy using the crushed lime stone as a fertilizer.
 R. w. Jones then asked if the rocks on his land would make bread? If the demonstrators do nothing else, thev  give the farmer folk some place to go. said he. They come from the bottoms, where much cotton is raised, to the hills where we raise little cotton, and tell us not to raise so much cotton, but to plant corn. We can raise pota toes by the carload, and if we only had station could ship great many. What the farmers must do is to use their gray matter and think for them selves.
 Several of the farmers of this com munity are going to raise sorghum this year.
 Some of our young men attended the ball game Wednesday.

LITTLE ROCKS CHANGE TO HELP
 ITS FRIENDS IN THE COUNTRY.


 Springfield, Missouri, whose business meH are reaching out for the trade of North Arkansas, has shipped 10 Mountain Home and other points in the Ozark regions, where conditions of the past year have left many hard working farmers in needy circum- stances, quantity of seed corn for spring planting. This is a mighty good way for a city to cultivate the friendship of the country folks, and it is an example that Little Rock might Erofit by in bringing closer to it the people in the hills who, without any fault of theirs, have been placed in desperate circumstances. These far mers who have not the money to buy seed and fertilizer do not expect their supplies to be given to them. They would be thankful if they could get them on credit until their next crop is made. The commercial bodies that raise bonuses for industries and sub- scriptions for conventions might, with profit to the Capital City, investigate the need of seed and supplies among the poor, but deserving farmers in the immediate vicinity of Little Rock.
