a PATCH OF ALFALFA

Many Arkansas farmers are now talking fields of alfalfa" but in most counties it is safe to talk about patches. /" Alfalfa is making other states rich and our state should have and will have in ten years 8 million acres of this greatest feed and fertility crop. Select a spot of one to five acres now, low ground that does not overflow, put on six loads per acre of well routed manure, blow early enough to leave at least four or six weeks before seeding and work about once a weess to get good seed bed and then SOW about 20 pounds of good seed per acre, anywhere from September 5 to October ,, pre- ferably after a rain. If in doubt as to whether the selected plot will grow alfalfa or whether your soil needs inoculation, write Prof. w. c. Lassetter of the Ex- tension Division, College of Agriculture, Fayetteville, or con- suit the County Agent, if one is in the county.

LET'S EVERYBODY RESOLVE

We can not make this town what it ought to be unless we all work in harmony to the same end.
 Pulling and pickering and knocking will only drag our house down oyer our heads, and it is about time we looked the facts in the face and turned over a new leaf for the better.
 We can do much to improve our social and commercial con- ditions, if we want.
 Let's unanimously resolve that we want to.

 NOT "A LUXURY
:. vn,l EXPECT TO GROW LIVE STOCK PUT A SlLo BY ALL
 MEANS

t is now time for the farmer
 who has ten or more head of cat file, and has never put up a silo, to decide definitely about erect ing silo for use this fall and winter. The prospects are that
 there will be a number of home
 made silos erected in Arkansas
 this year with an increase num-
 Der next year. With the amount
 of rock, gravel and timber that
 is available in this state at small
 cost, there is no excuse for not
 utilizing these in silo construct
 ion when they will afford the op-
 portunity of reducing the cost
 of silo. If you are permanently
 located and expect to continue in
 the live stock business, which is
 growing rapidly in this state, the
 best silo to erect is a reinforced
 monolithic concrete silo. This
 type of silo, if properly. erected should be used in sections of the state where rock is plentiful and can be built at an average cost of S2.50 per ton capacity. You can use farm labor in erecting a concrete silo. The Arkansas farmer should be able to put up good stave silo at much less cost than they are being built at the present time. Good grades of pine and cyprus lumber with 2x4 or 2x6 for slaves can be pur- chased in most sections of Ar kansas. Other material can be secured from a local hardware store or blacksmith shop. An- other type of homemade silo is the wood hoop silo where tongue and groved flooring Is uova slaves. These silos can be erect ed at a cost of from sixty-five cents to one dollar per ton capac- ity and are very durable. Part les interested in silo construction should communicate with R. H. Mason of the United States de- partment of agriculture, with headquarters at the Old State House, Little Rock, who is pre- pared to furnish bills of material for any size of either of these types of silos ag well as to give a limited amount of assistance in the construction. MT Mason is limited to travel in the tick free area of Arkansas, but he will give information to any farmer Tn any section of the state free of charge. In the case of a concrete sllo he will help you to build an economical silo form which can be used in the erection of five or six silos.

THE BUYERS BEST FRIEND

THE S0 fEN SESG FRIEND
 The best friend of the careful buyer is the advertisement in the local paper.
 It IS the arrow that points the way to better buying.
 1t IS the foregone conclusion that when a merchant goes to the expense of advertising cer- tain goods those goods are we'll worth the price and will stand up under the most rigid inspec- tlon. If it were otherwise the merchant would hardly be call ing attention to them. He would simply resort to the shady trick of working them off, on some unsuspecting dupe.
 Very few buyers have the time to look all oyer town before making their purchases. Life is too short for that.
 They must have the goods, and without unnecessary loss of time in making their selections, and it is but natural that they should turn to the advertising pages of the local paper for such advanced information as may be obtained before starting out on their quest.
 -.@i i,!seA, tl,2 -tta.arehant who advertises his wares, ana keeps his best offerings in the public eye, has the advantage of the man who never adver- tises, and draws business to his store which otherwise might drift into other places.
 It is good for the merchant and it is good for the buyer, for it enables the merchant to dis pose of his goods at a reasonable profit, and enables the buyer to make the purchases he desires to the best advantage without loss of time.
 And if there is a special bar gain offered it enables the buyer to take advantage of the op- portunity instead of going to some other place where a higher price would prevail.
 Advertising has been reduced to a science, and those who bene- fit from it are not found only in the camp of the advertiser. The buyer shares equally in the bene- fits through the savings of time and the securing of the articles he desires at the minimum price.
 Keep your eye on the advertis- ing pages of this paper, for they will contain many attract i've offerings from week to week.
 Success comes to those who seek it, and economical buying is one of the surest means to that end.

 Kansas City Stock Yards, July 26, 1915. The cattle market lost it's keen edge last week. prices closing 15 to 35 lower for the week. Receipts today are II, 00Q head, and the market is 10 to 20 lower on killing grades, about steady on stockers and feeders Packers claim that the bees market is in extremely bad condition, and their complaints are so loud and so oft repeated that some credence must be put III them. A set of Jewish holi- days has suppressed the market on big steers, and while break Tn prices at this time is logical, in view of the increasing supply of grass cattle, the decline on prime steers is more emphatic than appears call for, and few believe it will stick. Middle and low grades, of course, must stand the customary pruning, one effect of which will be shut ting off loading in south Texas. as present prices prevent cattle from paying out.
 Accumulating abundance of roughness, and some powerful looking corn field are the stimu- Jus behind the stocker and feed CT market, Prime heavy steers brought $9.75 today, bulk of native steers $8.25 to $40, Kansas wintered steers $8.25 to $9, COWS $5.50 to $5.75, heifers SIPS to $8.25, bulls $5.75 to S6.50, veal calves $8 to S10.25. stockers $7 to $7.75, feeders SIPS to $8, a few feshy feeders at $8.25 to $9, quarantine fed steers $7.50 to $8.75, quarantine 1 : oeoSl l----- -ee--. ,nrz4 OF

Receipts were $500 head, which included LIDO head shipped by packers from another river market to K ansas City for slaughter. Lower provisions last week caused declines, although there was some recovery toward the last of the week. Packers de- mand mainly for butcher hogs, suitable for fresh pork trade, rough heavy hogs getting slow action all times. Order buyers took one-ffth of the supply last week, generally at prices 5 to 15 cents above the packers.
 Sheep and lambs are selling stronger, lambs gaining 9 cents today, total receipts only 2,000 head. Of the supply today l., 700 head were Arizona spring lambs, which sold at S8, weighed in two lots, 65 and 70 pounds average, respectively. T hre e or four loads of feeding lambs were picked up last week at SIPS to $7.55, and a couple of loads of breeding ewes, at $6.25 to S6.75. Western stock should start running in about two weeks.

DIR. BERRY'S LETTER
Continued from Page 81

indications Of fear everywhere and
man who sold it,
There is probably not a county in
Maine where intoxicants are not sold
secretly But this selling in most
counties is in spite of the efforts of
the sheriffs' force to stop it. and not
by his consent and with his evident
protection.
In Waterville, six automobile loads
of whiskey from Bangor have been
seized by the sheriffs' force. The
week before the Central Maine fair,
deputy sheriffs were out three success
sive nights watching for liquor auto
mobiles and caught one the last night.
# With automobiles bringing intoxi-
cants from Bangor by night and dis
tributing it to vendors in Waterville,
it is impossible for one deputy, how
ever assisted, to catch all such au-
tomobiles, and it is certain, however
faithful such deputies may be, that
some liquor will be brought in and
sold. Reasonable men ought to be
satisfied If such officers do their best
to stop the, sale OF intoxicants.
complain not that intoxicants are
sold in spite Of the best efforts of the
officials. but that intoxicants are
sold with the evident permission and
protection Of officials paid and sworn
TODD their best to stop the sale.
Burglaries will be committed IN
spite Of the best police force in any
city. No city can maintain a police
force sufficiently large to stand guard
at every home and at every place
Of business. II the police force does
its best to prevent burglaries, they

FAMOUS ACTRESS SAYS
COFFEE HARMS
COMPLEXION
Declares Coffee Habit Crowns on One,
Dulls the Mind, and Weakens the
Muscles.

People who desire to retain youthful
looks and clear, healthy skin, may be
surprised to learn that so eminent an
authority on beauty as Lillian Russell
declares. in a recent issue OF the Chi
cago Herald. that both coffee and tea
have harmful effect on the COM
plexion. The most youthful skin can
be made dry and sallow by the over
indulgence Of tea or coffee.
1T always depresses me when hear
a woman say, I must have a cup Of
and generally sip it in bed.' She
would be shocked If she heard some
one else say that they must have a
cocktail before they could begin the
day. @
+, I heard a most beautiful old woman
say. DO you think would dry up my
blood and ruin my skin BY drinking
tea?'
THE coffee habit grows on one, and
when coffee is used as stimulant
there is a reaction. which means de-
preston and causes over indulgence or
the use Of stronger stimulants. In the
continued use, stimulants dull the
mind and weaken the muscles"
