DEMONSTRATORS
 COMING DEC. l6


 Notwithstanding the fact that our country has shown a back ward tendency in that it failed to provide for the maintainance of a county farm demonstrator we are to receive a part, at least, of the benefits to be derived from the agricultural extension work being done under the Smith-Lev- CT law and the Iron Mountain railroad company working in conjunction.
 On December 16th group of fourteen men sent out by the government and the railroad con- pany will arrive at Ozark in the interests of Safe Farming.
 The group will embrace Dean J. H. Miller, of the Experiment Station: J. c. Barnett, Farm De- monstration Work from the Ex- pertinent Station; c. w. Watson, U. s. Govt. State Agent; D. c. Welty, Agricultural Bureau s. l.. l. M. X s. Ky. Co.,, expert on live stock: Us. Knox. fruits; Dr. Gregory. live stock and D. V. S.. i; Prof. w. H. Wicks, peaches, C.. o. Carpenter, From Mountain Agent on Standardization of Farm Products and Marketing; w. J. Jernigan, corn club: John H. Page, commissioner agricul- ture; H. J. Sanders, pig club; J. H. Mcleod, Live Stock; Earl Kill patrick, Forage Crops and Soils i; Dr. k. M. Cow, State Veterina- rian; Lee Hewitt, Horticulturist.
 It is planned to have two of these men stop off at Altus and spend the day in that vicinity, two of them go to White Oak station to hold a meeting there. and ten of them come to Ozark. From this point four of them will go to the south side of the river, two of them will hold a  morning meeting at Corinth and an afternoon meeting at Loves Creak, and an afternoon meeting at Cecil.
 Two will hold a morning meet ing at Boston school house and an afternoon meeting at liar mons store, while two will meet the people at White Oak school house in the morning and at Adams school house in the after noon. Dean Miller and Prof. J. C. Barnett will spend the day in Ozark and vicinity.
 At 2 o'clock in the evening a general meeting of all who are interested will be held at the court house an which time we will have with us all those who have gone into the different neighborhoods during the day.
 The people here will be expect ed to entertain these men and to provide a way for them to reach the different meeting places, an0 we should be very glad to do SO In no other way can we hope to receive so much for so little. Nor should we fail to show that We appreciate the fact that We are to have a chance to learn something of the great. new movement among progressive farmers. even if we are too poor to pay for a farm demonstrator as permanent teacher of our coming generation of farmers.

FORGING A CHAIN

Boys, remember while you smoke
the cigarette you are forging chain
which results in the bondage of

the cigaret is the first link of the

You know the evils of the cigaret,
yet you will forge the chain. Smok-

second link bad company. Your com.

and very soon the third link in it is
discovered-mental inability. You
cannot keep up with Your class in
school. You are dull pupil. But you
smoke and smoke until you have forg
ed the forth link OF the chain-shat-

disease.
Faster and faster the links are forg-
ed-physical weakness, moral degen-
eracy, benumbed conscience irrepres-
sible craving, which often leads to
the use OF strong drink.
You have forged a chain of the CT
