POOR OLD JOHN.

John Barleycorn the swaggering, just now is badly staggering beneath repeated blows; for kings say, He is ruinous-dodgast the stuff he's brew in us," and Diff him on the nose. The kings, alert and vigorous, are taking measures rigorous, to swat old John again: He's worse than guns and sabers are,' remark the kings, This labors are addressed to drowning men. Out where our flags are shim- nering the bottle must go glimmering, 1t makes the soldier rude; it spells the ardent warrior, and nothing could be sorrier than fighting men half stewed" Thus speak the Lords anointed ones, and they are the ap- pointed ones their peoples veal to guard; they see that John, the lecher ous, is vicious, mean and treacherous, and so they soak him hard. And if, fin EuropN's villages, old John, who stays and pillages, runs up against frost, the war, with all it's slaughtering, that leaves the nations tottering, is we'll worth what it cost.-Walt Mason.

EFFECTS OF BEER DRINKING.

The political strength of liquor is furnished by the wine and beer drink CTS. Whisky interests may be better organized than the brewers and inter- fere more actively in politics, but the votes which make possible the sale of intOXiCants are not furnished by whisky drinkers, who do not all ways vote as they drink The beer drinker generally will vote to protect his habit, because he is far from con- vinced of it's malignancy-From Edi- torial in Chicago Tribune.
 And that is why the w. c. T. U. and other temperance organizations are bringing to the masses the truth about beer and it's malignant effects upon the human organism. Concerning those effects the Life Extension inst!- tute says in a published statement:
 "One-half of one quart of beer is sufficient to distinctly impair memory, lower intellectual power and retard simple mental processes, such as the addition of simple figures This mar cotic or deadening influence is first exerted on the higher reasoning pow CTS that control conduct, so that the lower activities of the mind and nerv- ous system are for a time released. The everyday, well-poised, self-con- trolled man goes to sleep, as it were, and the primitive man temporarily wakes up. Eventually, the nervous system is narcotized, and the drinker becomes sleepy. Muscular efficiency is at first increased little, and then lowered, the total effect being a loss of working power"

WHY NOT WINTER
 OATS IN ARKANSAS
Fall SoWn Oats Yield Better Than Those Planted in Sprine-Sturde and Fit in We'll With System of Ro tation.
Why not fall oats? Two crops of

Why not fall oats? Two crops of fall sown oats yield as much as three crops of spring sown oats. Fall sown oats will yield at least 50 per cent greater than spring sown oats, The weight per bushel is greater for fall sown oats. Fall sown oats work well into the crop rotation, for they may be followed immediately after corn, the oats being followed the next sum mer by cowpeas. Fall oats are put in the ground at a time when the farm teams are doing practically nothing. Arkansas must grow a larger acreage of oats and more bushels to the acre. Fall sOwn oats will help to do this.
 Preparation of Seed Bed.
 For the best results, a well pre- pared seed bed should be had Where possible break the land prior to seed ing time. Just before seeding time, disc well and smooth with a section harrow. When oats are to follow i'm mediately after cultivated crop, such as corn, the land may be double disced and then smoothed and har- rowed well with a section harrow. The discing and narrowing should be repeated until the soil is in good, mel low condition
 Treat Seed for Loose Smut. w A good percentage of the oat crop is destroyed annually by smut. This may be prevented by using the fol lowing mixture and treatment:
 l. Mix one pound Gone pinU or formaldehyde with forty gallons of water in a large sized barrel
 ?. Put a bushel or more oats into 8 bag Ca cheap gunny sack of very coarse materiaD.
 3. Dip bag and oats into the solu- tion and shake up and down until all oats are thoroughly wet Elevate and drain.
 4. Allow the oats to remain in the bag or empty out in heap and leave for two hours.
 5. Spread them out to dry
 6. Machinery and receptacles to be used in handling the oats first should be thoroughly cleansed with the solu- tion.
 z. Sow about 10 per cent more per acre to allow for the swelling.
 When to Sow.
 For the northern part of the state, sowing should begin not before the middle of September In the south erin part of the state October is pref erable.
 Method of Sowing.
 By using the drill. the seed are placed in the soil at a uniform depth. insuring a good even stand and uni formity in ripening Experiment shows that by using the drill larger yields are obtained. Also. the drill leaves the plants in a little furrow thus affording slight protection against cold and heaving. Use the drill if possible; otherwise SOW by hand.
 Rate of Seeding.
 Seed your oats at the rate of eight or ten pecks to the acre. Experi- ments conducted by the Arkansas Experiment Station at Fayetteville show that these rates give the most economical yields
 Varieties.
 In the northern part of the state SOW the turf oats. such as Winter Turf, Virginia Turf, Winter Grey and Snoma. In other sections the Red Rust Proof oats are hardy and give good results, as well as the turf oats M. s. Baker, Assistant Agronomist, College of Agriculture and Experiment Station, Fayetteville.

ATTITUDE OF CATHOLIC CHURCH.

"All the great Catholic societies re- fuse membership to those engaged in the liquor business" says MT. John F. Cunneen, prominent Catholic and la bor leader. "In Maine the Catholics have a majority of the church mem bership, and you know how Maine stands on the liquor question. In Cambridge, Mass, the Catholic church membership equals n per cent of the total church membership, and for 2S years Cambridge has outlawed the sa- loon. While the Catholic may vote as he pleases upon the saloon ques- tion, the church giveS him no argu- ment in favor of the saloon. On the contrary, all the arguments are against it. Rev. James E. Cassidy of Fall River, Mass, once said: You dare not pray for the saloon' No Catholic who follows Father Cassidy's advice will vote for the saloon"
 Standard Farm Machinery.
 AS an example of the confidence the Arkansas merchant places in our far mers' ability to work crops and in our soils for growing them, the Gresham Bros. of Halliday, Greene County, Ark, recently purchased ,600 high power hay press for baling for the public, and their work is said to be satisfac. tory. A few more hay balers in Ar. kansas would result in a larger acreage of forage crops and hay crops The hay baler is a paying investment in almost every section of this state, and will be in greater demand next year than ever before The Exten- sion Division of the University of Ar. kansas will be pleased to answer all inquiries from farmers or business men regarding standard farm ma chinery
