Arkansas farmers planted 56, : 900 more acres of wheat during the past fall than was planted during the previous year, and the increase in winter oats in this state is 154, 900 acres over the previous year. There are better days ahead for Arkansas when our farmers begin to produce the necessary food for man and beast. Sending our money to the North and West for flour, meat, lard and canned goods for ourselves, and for much of the feed for our stock, is the thing that is draining our country of money and retarding the prog ress of the state.

STATUTORY MORALITY

To do right from principle is good is best-but in many things We need to be taught what is right. The law informs and fol lows information with penalty. It is often argued that men can not be made moral by mere legis- lation. True; but the law may point the way; and the penalty, like a whip, hold us in the way until it is seen to be the best way.
 We legally forbid the adultera- tion of food. This in itself does not prevent men from eating im- pure food, but it puts them on notice and creates sentiment in favor of wholesome food.
 The same is true of laws pro- hibiting the sale of intoxicants. The law will not prevent all men from drinking but it establishes a standard and serves notice of danger. This restraints the wise and in some measure even guards the foolish. If there is no such law, weak and uninformed men are more easily beguiled and led astray.
 Good law helps to establish principles. It is a schoolmaster. Centuries of life under civil law have resulted in progress and are justified by our present superior ity over the jungle man.
 Shall we continue on this road or allow the liquor traffic for selfish gain to turn us aside?- Western Methodist.

Alabama will go dry on July 1, the legislature having passed a statewide prohibition law over the governors veto. Alabama adopted a statewide prohibition law in 1909 and after trying pro- hibition for two years the law was repealed in 1911. But after a four-year trial of the old liquor regime, the state has returned to prohibition by a far more decisive majority than when the first state wide law was enacted. There is no more defense for legalizing the liquor business than there is for legalizing and licensing robbery.

INDIGESTION
A Disorder that Breeds Dis- ease in the Body, and an Easy Way to Cure it.

Take care of the stomach and you will have little need for the doctor.
 When the stomach begins to show signs of disorder; when the food digests slowly and with discomfort; when you have heartburn; feel bloated and uneasy, you are in a condition that needs atten. ton.
 Prickly Ash Bitters corrects the dis ordered stomach by strengthening and toning up the digestive organs, driving the badly digested food into the bowels and thence out of the system.
 Constipation is nearly always pres- ent when the stomach becomes sour or disordered. Prickly Ash Bitters con. tains the medicinal qualities which act as a restorative and regulator for the stomach and bowels. It strengthens the digestive organs, cures constipation and prevents the return of bilious conditions
 Thousands of people who have re- ceived lasting benefit from this great remedy willingly testify to its power in curing indigestion, constipation and kid ney trouble.
 1T suffered from constipation for years and tried many remedies but Prickly Ash Bitters is the only medicine that has ever done me any scsl. zaroagh iss use xsss now.a ssaa aes ..stss and entirely free from all traces of my former trouble."-B. P. SrrcALL, winnsboro Louisiana.

given in the report as $103. .25, mules $112.35, milch cows $55. B, other cattle S33.35, hogs $9.87.
 There are 3, 474 farmers in h. dependence county. Suppose each of them should raise one mule, two head of cattle and five head of hogs more this year than he raised last year, which is not at all impossible. But it takes longer than year to raise a mule or a steer, so suppose that at the end of the year the additional stock is worth only S100, which is a very low estimate of the value of the additional stock that could be raised by every farmer. This would mean a total of $347, 400 additional money for the farmers of the county.
 There is a total of 214, 873 farms in Arkansas. If just one half of these farms should pro- duce $100 worth of stock more than was produced on them last year, it would add nearly $7 to the per capita wealth of the state.

WHERE STOCK GROW INTO DOLLARS

Practically no progress was made in stock raising in Arkan- sas during the year 1914, accord ing to a report just issued by the agricultural department at Wash ington.
 The report shows that there was a total of 276, 1000 horses in this state January 1. 1915, as compared with 273, 900 on Janu- ary 1, 1914. The total number of mules January l, 1915, was 240,000 as against 235, 900 for the previous year. There were 387, 900 milch COWS January 1. 1915, as against 386,o00 for the pre- vious year. All other cattle numbered ASA, 900 as against 475.- 900 for the previous year. Of sheep there were 130,000 this year as compared with 124, 900 the pre- vious year. Hogs numbered 1,573, 009 January l, 1915, as against 1.498, 900 the year before.
 This is total of only 3, 090, GOO farm animals of all kinds in the state. The population of the state is 1,654, 900. This shows that the state has less than two farm animals for each inhabitant. There is less than one milch COW for every four persons. and less than one hog for each person in the state.
 Arkansas is an agricultural state, the principal part of her wealth being produced on the farms. Yet we find that in live stock, one of the most profitable and valuable products of the farm, our state is one of the poorest in the Union, when, in fact, it should be one of the fore most states in this respect. We have every natural advantage for stock raising in this country and it could be made the most import ant and profitable branch of farming if our people would give it the proper attention.
 The Journal does not intend this as a criticism of our farmers but intends only to point out the great opportunity for profit that is being so seriously neglected by the farmers of Arkansas.
