TICKS FROM TALL TIMERS
How to Get in Tick Free District
 This Year.

If you want your county to be In the tick eradication district and rid your county of the Texas fever tick ana save thousands of dollars of loss an. nually, then hustle out with petitions to local representatives of the Arkan' sas Legislature which conyenes next week, urging that your county be placed in the tick eradication district.
 There are now two eradication dis tricts in Arkansas, the Northeast Tick Eradication District, under the control of a commission, and the Northwest District, in charge or board of con. trol. and under the direction of the head of the Veterinary Science Depart ment of the State College of Agricu'- ture at Fayetteville.
 The work has been carried on in these districts by counties who levy an annual tax of five cents on all cat. tie of dairy and beef class in those counties.
 In any part of the state outside the tick eradication districts 1t would be practical for several counties in a group to join forces and form a local district. These counties could come in under the present laws and regula- tfons provided they are placed legally and the tax of five cents is levied on all nest cattle within your borders.

How quickly we become used to horrors. When the Titanic was
 lost at sea, the whole world shud- dered, sobbed and sympathized. Off the coast of South America the other day, thousands of miles from home, over 2,OOO men, more than those who died on the Ii- tanic. went down. to the bottom less depths of the restless sea. And the world gave the story a passing glance and read on. Is It because there was a glamour at- tached to the death of the Titan ic's victims, or was it because the men who died on the German bat tleships are paid to die9 Or.though we dislike to believe it, is it be- cause, like the man who stands with knife in hand at the abbatoir, we have become hard ened and take the death in battle as mat ter of course?

l9l5 SEED CORN MUST
 BE SELECTED AT ONCE
Delay Until Time to Plant to Secure Good Parent Stock Why Arkansas Average Yield Is 20 Bushels an Acre.

Do not wait until planting time to pick out or buy the seed corn. Begin to look for good seed ears now ano keep them in dry place and protect ed from the grain moth so that they will grow. Many farmers depend on picking the seed corn out of the crih during the winter most of it has been fed, and that only few bushels oi nubbins remain from which to select the parent stock for the crop of next year.
 Corn that is allowed to stay in the crib all winter, especially if it was put

fin damp or became damp, will not ger minate strong, with the result that there will be many weak plants o1 missing hills in the field. There Is al. ways a rush of work in the spring at planting time Seed should be select ed before this rush begins.
 A man who is not pushed for time will do better work, so that seed that is selected early will be of better quality than that selected when the farmer feels that he ought to have his teams in the field. Select fifty ears for each acre that is to be planted. Some of it is likely to be spoiled or become damaged. At second selection at planting time, some of the ears will be thrown out because they do not look as good as they did at first.
 Plans may be changed so that few more acres may be planted than was at first intended. After all if there is a small surplus it may be sold to some neighbor who has neglected his seed. and who will be willing to pay a good price for 1t, or it may be fed and nothing lost If you must buy seed get 1t early. The seed houses usually sell their best seed first and if there is a demand may sell very inferior seed at the end of the season. The failure of so many of our farmers to get superior quality of seed early in the season is one big factor in caus ing the average yield of corn to be only twenty bushels per acre in Ar kansas.
