HARVEST HOME SERVICES

Why should not the people of Arkansas in city. town and viii lage and county make Thanks giving a real old fashioned "har- vest home service. Why not decorate the churches as did our forefathers and as did the ancient Romans with the fruit of the field? The autumn leaves are wonderfully beautiful, and the golden corn" and the beau- tiful cotton and the Arkansas apples and our unexcelled vege- tables and with just sample of canned fruits and jellies will make a decoration for even a church. What finer thing could be done all over Arkansas than to magnify in our churches our relation to and our depend ence on agriculture. Why not vary the usual service on Thanks giving day by having the sermon just little shorter and have some recitations by the children. some songs by the young people, one or two brief talks by men and women who have the rural vision and then some of the good old songs. and two or three patriotic songs. ending with the glorious old Doxology. Why not have a special harvest home service" in every school in the state. Decorate the humble old box we call a school honse with Gods wonderful gifts of the harvest. the corn, the cotton the fruits and then the leaves from his forests. Why not help the children to voice their thanks giving with songs and recitations in the rural village and city schools and to decorate every school house in Arkansas. Why not?

SHELTER COTTON

Washington, D. c. It is very important, according to the spe- cialists of the U. s. Department of Agriculture, that all cotton that is not marketed when gin- ned should be stored or place d in a position where it will be protected from injury by mois- ture. Where cotton is exposed to rain it is serious injury: and where it is sheltered but left in contact with the wet ground it is likely to become seriously dam aged. It is frequently the case that people dc not realize the amount of damage that is done. In many instances cotton appears from the outside of the bale to be in fairly good condi- tion, when it is really badly injured inside. due to the fact that moisture has been allowed to penetrate the bale, thus caus- ing mildew.
 1t is not unusual. according to the Departments data, for cot ton to suffer a loss of from $3. % to $5. % per bale as a result of unnecessary exposure. At all times it should be kept off the ground and properly sheltered. Where it is imposs ible to place it in a Wareho use it should be pro- tected by dry shed or it may be placed on poles or timbers which will keep it several inches from the ground, and covered with tarpaulins. Protected in this way. it can be held for six months or even a year With very little damage.
 In some sections the farmers and business men have organiz ed companies for the purpose of constructing warehouses n order to protect the cotton. This, the investigators believe, is a move in the right direction and every community should take this precaution where the warehouses now available are not ample for the protection of the cotton crop.

DRUG PRICES SOAR

It is almost impossible for re- tail drug dealers to secure sever al staple drug products, and those which are purchased are bought at a premium, Whole sale drug firms recently placed a limit on amounts of quinine sales to retail dealers. Every drug merchant in the United States is limited to three ounces of quinine per week, which is sold wholesale for $2.2 an ounce. Before the war this com modity could be secured in un- limited quantities for 35 to 40 cents an ounce. Potassium bro- mide. which last year retailed for B to 40 cents pound. now sells for $3.6O per pound.
 All merchants handling crepe pap r napkins have been limited to the purchase of 100 each week selling wholesale at $l.95 per 1000. They formerly sold for 80 cents a thousand. Crepe nap kins are made from a wood pulp, which can be secured only in Austria. and this accounts for the shortage.

Fay Will Not Make
Further Statement;
He Fears Long Term

NEW YORK, Nov. 16-When the case
Of the five men indicted here I'm the
alleged German bomb conspiracy was
called in the federal district court to-
day demurrers were entered in behalf
Of two defendants. Robert Fay and Wal
ter Scholz. The sdemurrers allege that
the indictment against these men is in
sufficient and does not state any Of
fense under the laws OF the United
States, in that the munitions vessels on
which bombs were to have been placed.
according to the charge. would have been
blown up on the high seas.
Counsel for Robert Kienzle, Max
Breitung and Engelbert Bronkhorst. the
others under indictment, did not ender
demurrers. but stood on their pleas of
not guilty.
Fay was taken before Attorney Knox
again today presumably to continue the
statement be began yesterday. A few
minutes later, however. he was returned
to the Tombs. 1t was then announced
that Fay would not make a confession
or any further statement.
When Fay agreed to make a statement
for the government attorneys and plead
guilty to the indictment, the prisoner
thought he would escape with a sentence
OF one or at most two years. Mr.. Knox
informed Fay however, that a plea of
guilty would carry with 1t a sentence of
twelve years. Mr.. Knox said that so
far as the government is concerned II
will not discuss the matter further with

the State department would count Is as

Secretary Lansings instructions to Am
