COWPEAS AND S0y
 BEANS FOR FORAGE
ALL VARIETIES PRODUCE HEAVY
 YIELDS IN STATE ExPERi. MEkTS AT EVIGLE
 SHOW THEM GOOD INVESTMENT

Among the crops that can be sub stituted for cotton. none is more gen erally practicable than cowpeas and soy beans Both crops are extremely ell adapted to the soils and climate of Arkansas, Both are fairly certain to produce good yields of highly nu- tritious forage and grain.
 As r.le cowpeas will do better on poorer soils than soy beans. The soy beans perhaps. have a slight advantage in withstanding drought. Cowpeas have an advantage fin that they continue their growth un- til frost. whereas. soy beans must be harvested at certain time or the leaves fall of
 Cowpeas usually produce larger yield of forage than most varieties of soy beans. but not so much grain. Late varieties of soy beans. however. are high yielders of forage but do not produce much grain. Cowpea vasie-

Why Women Dress Better.

The growing interest in dress Is very plainly evident all over England help noticing how indefinitely better women of all classes are turned out" than they were even a few years ago.
 The change is principally due to the fact that the more advanced of the dress writers have broken away from the dry-as-dust uninterestipg dress jargon of Victorian times.
 They talk now-as Lady Betty and Camilla talk in their weeks dress double number of Home Chat-about things ordinary people want to know in language that ordinary people can understand.-London Daily Mirror

FAULT NOT WITH THE PUBLIC
Claim of Bankrupt Baker That o'ic has Lost lts Taste for Pie
 10 Refuted.

A New York pie manufacturer de- clares himself a bankrupt and informs the court that his financial embarrass- ment Is due to a decline in the de- mand for pie His inability to balance his liabilities with his assets is the piemakers own affair. Bankruptcy Is not uncommon enough to be interest ing But when the piemaker assures us that the public has lost its taste for pie. that pie is no longer in favor, and gives this as an excuse for his fail ure, we encounter something that is not common
 Pie, we had believed, was set upon a foundation as firm as the rock of Gibraltar
 Pie is an American institution. It Is the one pastry that makes the whole country kin. Rich and poor urban and rural East and West know 1t, revere it. devour 1t. It graces man. sion and hovel banquet table and lunch counter; 1t Is the dessert of millions: in the course of its long and honorable career it has been the friend of the hungry and the main stay of the hurried It has followed the flag. advanced with advancing frontiers. served in peace and in war, fed soldier and preacher. and oiled the wheels of commerce by wasting it's precious flavor upon the unapprecia- tive palates of travelling salesmen. It has brought fortune to some, fame to others and added glory to the name of mother It has proved blessing and a benediction.
 We can not believe in short, that the bankrupt piemaker has read the signs alright His pies were wrong and he is wrong and the fault lies not with the public.

CARE 0F BROOD SOW
 RETURNS MORE PIGS
MEANS DOLLARS AND CENTS TO FARMERS PURSE-HEALTHI PIGS AND MORE FOOD FOR THE FAMILY.

It is d mistake to fatten brood sows before tarrowing time, as pigs are likely to be weak and often farrowed dead. The more common mistake IS to allow the SOW to rustic for her self and farrow in very thin Condi- tion. As d result. if the litter Is o. fair size, milk will t.e pretty scarce. Feed the SOW Iiberally so that she comes to farrowing time in just fair round condition. supplying plenty of muscle and tissue building material. and therefore not using corn alone for the ration. Equal parts of corn and wheat shorts. supplemented by one part of tankage To eight or tn parts Of corn and shorts mixture. made up in moderately thIn slop for l2 hours before feeding saould make good ration.
 teH days before farrowing put the SOW fin pen by herself and cut down the ration q little and perhaps use little less corn. If the SOW Is 3oung watch her carefully. and if she has tendency to bite the pigs re- move the!- until they are all farrowed. and then give them back to her watch ing her behavior 0tile doing SO The led in the tarrowHg house should be dry and clean. ut ilue material and not toe deep. It .s in the deep beds that pigs get had on. Wet beds soon ohili the ptgs. especially f they are born dui ng bad weather
 As a rule the SON Will not care for much food for d day or two after far rowing. but oaee in q while with old SONS they Nill feed very shortly. + tEe SOW ts fairly thln aud shows a good appetit. do not withhold feed as it may cause feyerish condition

BRAVERY OF DISTINCT TYPES
Uncertainty of the Battlefield Far Harder to Meet Than lnevit-
 able Death.

Bravery In the face of only possible death. as on the battlefield. and bray cry in the face of certain death as in the case of a Titanic shipwreck. are. CT course two very different things. The danger of the battlefield Is much harder to meet because of it's uncer- tainty. Men easily summon courage 10 meet the inevitable.
 It is the fear of the mishaps and perils of ordinary ltfe-all our dreads, worriments, anxieties. forebodings, solicitudes. morbidities, apprehensions of illness or of poverty-that need most to be met and overcome. A vast literature has sprung up within the last two decades. telling us how to be ferewarned and forearmed against all real and imaginary evils.
 The gist of that doctrine. boiled down into two words is: Don't worry. If you really must worry. then worry as little as you can do. If you do find yourself in sudden peril or emergency, regard the situation calmly and keep very cool If you are in imminent danger of being run over by motor car. preserve your presence of mind, for motorists assert that 1t Is only the people who lose their heads who get run over.
 Exactly how a nervous person, man or woman. is to preserve the requisite presence of mind in a great and sud den danger has never been adequately set forth. though many very entertain prove the folly of fear.

sowed broadcast or drilled in rows for forage. For seed production it Is preferable to drill iu rows 2S to 26 inches wide and cultivate three times. The first two cultivations should throw the dirt into the row to cover up weeds. but the last cultivation should be level in order to leave the land smooth, With high priced seed Il is most economical to plant in rows since only 20 to .5 pounds of seeI ill be required as compared with 6o to 90 pounds when seeding is done broadcast.
