Arkansas Farmers Use Serum.

Arkansas Farmers Use Serum.
 Williams Bros, of Diaz, and s. L. Bleakley of Auvergne, progressive far mers, are setting an example to Jack son County. They have ordered large shipments of serum from the Serum Plant at Little Rock. They adminis- tered the simultaneous treatment and have not lost a hog yet. David Thi- bault, county agricultural agent of Jackson County, in 8 report to Dean !. H. Miller of the Extension Division of the University of Arkansas said that these two large orders from two rep resentative farmers, has served as a stimulus to other hog raisers of Jack son County to use anti-hog cholera se- rum as preventative against hog cholera. The serum may be obtained from the State Serum plant at Little Rock byA writing Dr. R. M. Cow, State Veterinarian, Old State House, Little Rock. Tho serum may be bought for one and onehalf cents per cubic cen. timeter. A few cents invested in this way may save you many dollars.

 Mrs. T. J. Stout entertained her neighbors and three or four of Society members at tea Thursday afternoon last. Most of those present were the older ladies of the church, so it was called "Old Fashioned Tea. " The entertainment used carried out their idea. All seemingly enjoyed the afternoon highly. A silver offering of $l.95 was made up.

It will be a year before the govern ment reports the yield of oats and wheat and other crops that were rais- ed in Franklin County during the sea- son of 1915. But is 1t necessary to wait for these reports to arrive to de ermine what is being done by the far mers of that county in the face of a recent report sent to the Extension Division of the Unitersity of Arkansas by the agricultural agent for Franklin County, who says in his letter: "Im- plement dealers of this county report the sale of more than the usual num- Der of grain binders and cradles for harvesting the wheat and oats crop this year. Twenty-six binders and A cradles have been sold in this county to date this season."

 Faces come on people, waters and notes that are always coming due at the most inconvenient time. When faces belong to people they vary in size and shape and do not appear to be constructed according to any matured plan They also come in various col ors, red, blue and white. Some faces belonging to certain young ladies be- tween seventeen and twenty-five are highly ornamental and are calculated to inspire ones respect for the care full workmanship of the Creator. It is difficult, under some circumstances, and when there are no others present, to get too close to such faces as these. Faces are used by their own CTS for various purposes, for example, to conceal lack of brains. Every face has one nose, two eyes, two lips, a forehead, eyebrows and checks. Also chin, which is used to make music. The nose comes in various colors. ac- cording to the taste of the owner, ranging from an alabaster white to a deep purple.-Life. ,.,, .-,..srr

Your Ideals and Visions.

No vision and no idea is worth copper cent unless 1t is brought down to earth. patiently harnessed, painfully trained and set to work. There Is a beautiful analogy that comes often to my mind. We conceive an idea. as a child is conceived. in 8 transport of joy; but after that there are long months of growth in the close dark warmth of the soul, to which every part of ones personality must con tribute, and then there Is the painful hour of travail when at last the idea is given to the world. It is a process that cannot be hurried nor borne without suffering. And the punish ment of those who stop with the joy of conception, thinking they can skim the delight of life and avoid It's pain, Is the same in the intellectual and spiritual spheres as it Is in the phys ical-barrenness, and finally terrible sense of failure and of loneliness.- David Grayson in American Magazine

But for the candle the dark ages of the world would have been dark in still more literal sense than they already were, and to this humble servant civilized mankind was indebted for the very best illuminant 1t possessed, certainly until the latter end of the eighteenth century. and probably right up to the time of the invention of gas.

Which from this earth have started.

But when they vainly tried,
To gain the shore, St. Peter leered,
ITO He'll with youv' he cried.
A little "Ford" then came in sight,
And "honked" to gain admission,
"Come in," hailed "Pete" with pure delight,
