THE NEW SERUM PLANT
Location Of Building Changed to Fa.
clitate Shipping of Serum.

Government statistics show that 80
per cent Of all the hogs that die In
the United States die from hog chola-
ra. In the treatment Of cholera among
hogs the demand for anti-hog cholera
serum has increased to such an extent
that 1t was necessary to erect a new
building in which to manufacture the
serum at Little Rock. The old build
ing was located at Fayetteville. The
erection OF the plant at Little Rock
was done to facilitate the shipment Of
serum.
A site for the building was secured
near the We'll Packing Company's
plant and modern sanitary building
was constructed to meet large de-.
mands in Arkansas.
The veterinarian at the Experiment
Station has held meetings at various
places In the state, at which he has
given special instructions In the ad.
ministration OF this serum. The farm
demonstration agents have received
special instructions in the use of anti.
hog cholera serum and these agents
have already rendered great service
in their counties in controlling this
dread disease among hogs,
BY applying to the office of the state
veterinarian at Fayetteville or the
state demonstration agents at the Old
State House, Little Rock, or Of your
local county demonstration agent you
can secure the aid you desire in com.
batting this disease. which can be ab.
solutely controlled by the use OF the
serum.

| MANY DOLLARS SAVED
| By BUYING PURE SEED
Care in Selecting Parent For 1915
Crop Will Mean Better Yield at Har-
vest-2o Per Cent More.

In buying seed farmers should care
fully consider the following points II
they expect to get the worth of their
money: First, where the seed was
grown second, quality of the seed;
third, percentage Of termination;
fourth, percentage of trash; fifth,
purity of seed; sixth, presence and
kind of weed seed.
Seed must become acclimated to
any particular section before they will
produce the best crops. This often
takes two or three years. 1t is always
best to buy seed from a neighbor If he
has them with the proper quality and
purity. However, it will often be nee
essary to resort to the seed houses. In
that case statement should be Sc
cured from them stating where the
seed was grown. For instance, seed
is often shipped in from some distant
state for local use, and the farmer
may be greatly disappointed with re-
suits. 1t is better to use seed grown
east or west of the locality where it IL
to be used than those grown considera-
Bile distance north or south. 1t takes
only a few miles north or south to
make one day difference in the season.
Many farmers make the mistake Of
buying inferior seed because OF the
high cost of good seed. Yet the In
crease in yield due to the better seed
will pay for the difference in the cost
Of the seed several times, providing
the quality is secured. A small sam
pie of seed can be sent to the Arkan-
sas Experiment Station at Fayetteville
and test will be run free Of charge.
1t pays to know.
Farmers often fail to consider the
percentage Of trash that seed con.
tain. The farmer wants seed, not trash,
yet the percentage of weed seed, par
ticles of sand and dirt or sticks may
make up fifteen or twenty per cent
of the weight of the seed and such
seed are worth only so or IS per cent
as much as the clean seed.

1t sucks my life away.
Back on the old plantation,
When work was to be done,
I'd take languid stiffness
And dislike for the sun.
The rows were long and weedy;
The heat poured on my back,
My legs felt slow and clumsy
| Id have a bad attack
When neighbor boys went fishing,
Or else attended school;
Then must chop the cotton,
Or plow a lazy mule.
My ailment would come on me,
No reason | can tell;
But on such queer occasions,
I'd have an awful spell!
That mule was slow of motion,
1t took a vigorous welt
To make him mend his PAGES
He looked just like felt!
And while am no doctor,
| would on oath affirm,
That mule had inclinatus

AS night came I'd recover,
And oft by light of moon
I'd ride three miles quite briskly,
To hunt the festive coon.
And when there was a circus,
Some Saturday in June;
| never felt the hookus-
My system was immune.
But now a boy no longer,

And want to lie in bed.

PRESENT SEASON
REQUIRES BRAINS
Farmers Should Now Use
Every Day Turning Under
Trash And Stalks.

We are beginning a new veal
and new crop year in Arkansas
There will be more feed crops raised
in Arkansas in 1915 than in any
year in the history of the state
This would be true if no more addi,
tional crops were planted than were
planted last fall, but there will be
more and we must plan to grow
those crops that will suit our own
needs best.
For the inexperienced growers |
would not advise large periShable
crops, because h e unfamiliarity
with the markets and the handling
of such crops and the increased
acreage this year might cause dis
appointment to those who have their
heart on some new crop that is per-
ishable. Grow some of these crops
for sale but do not raise too much
of any one crop, for fear the market
might prove bad. If the CONNER
cial growing of perishable crops is
new to you and the crop you have
in mind is such a crop, my advice
would be to grow smaller acreage
and a number of such crops rather
than have to depend on one single
perishable crop. Where possible it
will always be best to place most
confidence in those crops that can
be held until you get ready to sell,
and not be forced to sell at some
certain time or lose the crop and
then be dependent upon the honesty
of the buyer in many cases. Now
is the time for plans and careful
study. The time to take a pencil
and piece Of paper and figure out
how many different crops you can
grow proftably and then few that
you can grow most profitable
This is to be a year for the Ark
ansas farmer that will require more
brain effort than ever before to in
sure a profitable year. The Or
binary crops can be grown with
very little study and planning, but
when the perishable crops are intro
duced on so many more farms in
any one year for commercial crops,
it will cerainly require study to be
able to dispose of such crops to
profit and be able to pay out should
some one crop prove Improbable.
Do not depend on some crop that is
new to you, as sole source Of
revenue for the coming year.
Order some bulletins on home
canning and be prepared to take
care of all surplus and over-ripe
products. Plan out what will be
best to plant on every patch OF
ground on the farm. A crop that
can be held for some time is much
safer than a readily perishable crop,
But do not lose sight of the fact
that il you cannot find quick
market for such crops you can can
them for sale or for home use.
Make plenty of hay, forage and corn
to feed to stock, and keep all the
hogs and cattle you have for the
fall market
Every good day should be used to
great advantage now in turning trash
