CULTIVATE PASTURES.

The farmers waste lots of energy throughout the summer in fighting gras and buying hay through the win ter. For 20 years have watched the
 agricultural conditions in this state, and during that period have never seen surplus of hay or sutiiciency of pasture It takes hard work to kill grass out of crop and it takes hard money to buy hay. It would Le "a good idea to compromise with the grass to some extent. Turn some of your poor land into pasture for your stock, cattle and hogs. Set apart a field and plant it to pasture. Plant it to rye and in the early spring sow clover and thus get winter and sum mer pasture. For every 1000 pounds of livestock pastured you will get an average of 1900 pounds of manure on the land every 20 days. Then turn under the manure and the green pasture next fall, before frost and SOW down in burr clover for the win ter pasture and follow that by rioW- ing that under in the spring. Then you will have good land made out ot poor land. Use enough Of your farm

HOW BAD BACKS HAVE BEEN MADE STRONG-KIDNEY ILLS
 CORRECTED.

All over Conway you hear it. Doan's Kidney Pills are keeping up the good work. Conway people are telling about it-telling of bad backs made sound again. You can believe the testimony of your own townspeo- pie. They tell it for the benefit of you who are suffering.

Follow this Conway citizens advice and give Doan's chance to do the same for you.
 Mrs. S. F. Davenport, Duncan St., Conway, Ark, says: "Doan's Kid ney Pills certainly did me lot of good.

JUDGE OF CONWAY
 COUNTY INDICTED
BUT JURY ACQUITS HIM
GRAND JURY FINDS "Al1ARM- ING CONDITION" IN HAND
 LING ROAD FUNDS.

The grand jury of Conway county,
 which adjourned this week, returned two indictments against County Judge
 Eugene Rhoden for alleged fraud in
 allowing claims on the county road funds, and also made report stat ing that an alarming condition of affairs" existed in the various road funds of the county by reason of the issuance of warrants in excess of the amounts to the credit of the districts and the taxes due them.
 The cases against Judge Rhoden re- suited in acquittal, however, when brought to trial According to the Morrilton Headlight, the first indlct- ment charged felony, the explicit charge being that Judge Rhoden "did unlawfully, wilfully fraudulently and feloneously, corruptly and knowingly induce and procure said M. C. John son to make said affidavit and false claim under oath," same being in re- gard to a debt owing to M. C. John son, alleged to have been for $38 for which bill for $76 was filed and al lowed. The other indictment was based on the same case, the charge being a misdemeanor, alleging that Judge Rhoden wilfully allowed the claim for more than was due. The proof advanced by the state failed to show that the account charged and allowed by Rhoden and for which he was indicted was more than was or dinary and reasonable for similar services of a person, team and wagon for 19 days at $4.OO per day, and thereupon the verdict of acquital was had
 Referring to the overdrafts on the road funds, the grand jury said in it's report:
 In our opinion this is in plain vio- lation of both the spirit and letter of the road law and the road overseers or contractors in doing the work and expending the funds, and the county judge in allowing the accounts, after the appropriation has been fully ex- pended, are acting without authority of law in so doing. The scrip so is- sued in excess of the appropriation, as provided in the act, ought not, and, in our opinion, does not, create lla- bility against the county or road dis tricts. However, the scrip, in many instances, is being issued to the la boring men, who in good faith and without notice have performed the work and labor, and it is for their protection that we thus publicly call attention to this scrip that is being issued in violation of the law.
 "We earnestly recommend and in- sist that the county clerk who keeps the record of the apportionments for each road district, and also record of the warrants issued against the same, hereafter refuse to issue war rants in excess of the appropriation for the current year. We further in sist and demand that the county treas
 urer do not pay any warrant that IS not drawn for work done in the year for which the apportionment is made We believe that the scrip, so issued Tn excess of the apportionment, is abso-
 lutely void and worthless

that way every year to pasture your stock. As a companion to this system grow enough hay crops to make two tons of hay per head for all of your cattle and horses. Take good care of it, and bale it. In the fall blow under all the green stuff, and follow with burr clover, crimson clover, rye or vetch for winter pasture, and turn under again in the spring while green. This system will give you much better land on which to grow corn and cot ton.
 I want to see the farmers with more gestures and bigger hay crops. It will enrich the land, and then it will t@ie fewer acres to make a living. And do not forget our mutual friend, the cow pea. Give it space in the corn niddles, along the turn-rows, and in over waste place. Fight the weeds, but compromise with the grass. Your work stock will thrive and do better if they have pasture to run on dur ing the night in the work season. The grass taey eat will take the place of corn Cnd oats, to some extent, and re- mem CT that stock, when pastured, are gathering that much of the crop as 1t crews, as they need it, leaving the 'chenge" on the soil to pay for it.
 <: n this system. You will find that taoaa who do are generally pros. porous.
