Henry James, of Morrillton, shipped two Hereford calves last week for which he received $25O. That beats scrubs just $235. James landed in Conway county about thirty years ago with a wife. three kids, one gallus and sixty cents in money.
 Renting land he raised just enough cotton to satisfy his land lord and put the rest of his time in raising corn, hogs, potatoes, etc.. which he sold to his neigh bors at prevailing prices. which are always high.
 Today he is the biggest lanG owner in this section of the state with 4,00O acres bottom land near Morrilton, 5000 near Dumas. and another thousand near England. Without wig. gling his thumb his annual in come is said to exceed $20, 900.

George Hill and l got permission to go home to change horses, and on our way, it being dark, we rode within six feet of the first scout of federal soldiers that had ever crossed south of Ozark mountains. They had heard us coming and were stand ing still, so they took our arms and said if we would not try to get away they would not hurt us, said they made bush whack- CTS and home guards look up lines. A few minutes later some of them went off the main road one-fourth mile and killed James Carter. There were couple of men leading scout that had lived in the naghbOrhOod, and had grudge against him. They went from here to old man Beneaux where they stayed two or three hours, think they fed their horses and robbed the house of everything they would have or could carry off on horse back. They now started for Fayetteville, travelling thru deep ravines and over high mountains, reached Fayetteville next morn ing about eight or nine o'clock. We were marched in front of guard house, dismOunted and put in, leaving our horses stand ing on street. They stood there and rested awhile. and then wandered off with saddles and brides on.

Diversified Farming

No movement for public wei fare in Arkansas is of greater significance than the ''Diversi- fled Farming Campaign" said State Superintendent Geo. B. Cook. This movement was launched Nov. 10, 1914, under the masterly leader ship of Prof. H. G. Holden.
 During the whirlwind cam- paign 1924 meetings were held in 49 counties of Arkansas. Sixty-one speakers addressed 13O,OOO farmers and 362. 900 pamphlets were distributed. Nearly 3O.0OO miles had been travelled by railroads and high ways on Dec. 12, when the first phase of the campaign closed. Since that time this great educa- tiOnal work for better rural con- ditions and greater profits to the farmer has been carried on by a "Follow-up Committee" E. J. Bodman, Union Trust Co.,, Little Rock, Ark. Chairman.
 ''The watch words of this cam paign are, We Must Feed Our selves" and Every Farm is a Factory"
 ''The State Department of Public Instruction, cooperating with MT. Bodman's committee, has placed in the hands of every school teacher in the state a copy of the handbook, Let Ark ansas Feed Herself. This book is being used this month in the Teachers Institutes for the work in Agriculture, and the teachers are urged to make it's contents a large part of the school work on this subject. This book is in accord with all the work of the Diversified Farming Committee. It is thoroughly practical and is aiding materially in teaching the

As To War With Germany

The note to which Mir. Bryan objected has gone to Berlin, but our humble opinion is that there will be no war between the United States and Germany-at least no war in a military sense, no battles between armed men on land and fire-belching ships on the sea. Germany may still show herself stiff-necked and apparently unyielding. But even if she refuses the Ameri- can governments demands and diplomatic relations shall be sev- cred we indulge the belief that the situation will not be so fur ther aggravated that the United States will have to send armies and fleets across the Atlantic. There is a reason for hoping that we shall have at the worst no more than bloodless wal with Germany, which will end with our having enjoyed mean while the freedom of the seas without added loss of ships ol lives, and that at last reparatior will be made for injuries that al
 we sustained in the dark day. when Germany and Britain were at each others threats and wt suffered grievously for the wal between these two embittere( nations. Arkansas Gazette.

Painless Advice

The rule of give and take ap- plies to many things. but not to advice. Whoso attempts to take advice as freely as he gives 1t must either be dumb, to begin with, or else will end badly. In this connection an amusing moral is pointed by the action of certain Kansas girl. The Kan sas City Star clips her story from it's neighbor, the Hiawatha World:
 A girl in Hiawatha had a pro- posal of marriage Sunday night, and asked a week to consider it before filing her answer. She then organized herself into an Investigating committee and commenced taking testimony from the married ladies of her acquaintance. The first one she visited used to be a belle and the most admired girl in the town before she was married six years ago. The ross-examina- tion brought out the fact that she had three children. did all her own work, including her washing and ironing, and hadn't been down. town for four weeks, and that her husband had given her but $2 since she was mar ried. and that he had borrowed and forgot to pay back $l0 which her brother once gave her for a Christmas present. He bought him a new overcoat with the money, while she wore the same plush coat that she wore when he was courting her. Another woman whom she visited quit teaching school three years ago to marry ''the handsomest and best-drest man in town" and she is now supporting him. A third didn't dare say her sou was her ow n when her husband was around, tho she used tC write some lovely essays wher she was at school on the eman. cipation of women. and the fourth woman she visited was divorced. After visiting them and summing up the evidence, she went home and wrote to the young man. She will be mar ried next month.

History Of My War Life
(Continued)

Continued
 Our division was stationed south from Ft. Smith on prairie and while there 210 of our boys ran off one night, 20 of them charged thru the pickets, and the balance went around. Old Tige. as we called him ordered two companies to follow them with orders to bring them back pris- oners if possible, and if they would not come, to shoot them
 l think they got thirty men out of two companies, and some of us said we would not shoot those boys. Cabell did not know so many had run away, and we had bigger job than we had contracted. When we overlook them they were in camp, the 2l0 of them. They got up, formed their companies and said it was the opinion of some that men that run away like they were doing would not fight, but said,
 By C., if you don't think we will, try us. We have started home, aud We are going" So you see we were up against it.
 They captured our commanding officer, took him two miles and turned him loose, and went on their way rejoicing. When he returned we went to camp, and while we never had orders to shoot or even load our guns, our commanding officer had orders to shoot them, so he, having disobeyed Cabells orders reported that Titsworth's com pany would not fire in order to save himself, and let the burden fall on our company, so our sec ond lieutenant. Matt McCubbins, was in command of our company and was ordered to headquar- ters. Cabell gave him down the country, telling him he was no more fit to command a company than dough man. Also told him that he was no more fit to command than he was for a preacher, and to go back and arrest every man he heard say that he would not fire on those deserters. so he came and arrested some of us, myself for one. Twas sent to headquarters. Old Tige said, "I understand that you say you would not shoot these deserters. said, Yes, sir, l said it. He said, If you won't shoot such men as those have men who will shoot you. didn't think he would do it, so was dismounted with others and marched around afoot two or three days. So one day as soon as they could they prepar- ed a brush arbor to give us court-martialing. About that time the federals crowded us and we had to skeedadle. Next morning got all my clothes and bedding, tied it hard and fast to my saddle, told one of my com pany boys to lead my horse at the rear of the command. that l believed l could get away from that outfit in two or three hours. While marching along with two guards at my heels I claimed to want water, so l started up a little ravine thru the bushes. circled to rear of command right to my horse and began crawling on him when two guards just
