 Edmonia Parker, County h. dustrial Supervisor is in the county and ready for work. She comes very highly recommended, having served in Chicot County in a similar capacity. It is to be hoped that the colored schools of the county will avail them selves of this opportunity to get some helpful instruction along industrial lines. Her services are free as her salary is paid from the Jeanes Fund. How ever, it will be necessary for those districts making use of her services to provide for her travelling expenses. She takes the place of Oscar l.. Douglass who resigned recently.

CONCRETE DIPPING VATS
The Most Practical Method For Tick
 Eradication.

The most practical method for tick eradication in Arkansas is the use of the concrete dipping vat and the sys. tematic dipping of cattle. Immediate ly after a county is placed in the tick eradication district, from 25 to 40 dipping vats are built in various sec tions of the county. The vats are To- cated so that cattle will not have to be driven more than three miles to be dipped.
 Cattle are allowed free range and are not quarantined in pastures, but every three weeks during the summer season they are dipped at designated vat. Where the majority of people want to eradicate the tick it only takes about two years to clean a coup- ty, however, it can be done quicker. The only reason for taking two years is that with some cattle owners rn- different or hostile, cattle are often hard to find on the range.
 The system of constructing dipping vats and the systematic dipping of cattle has passed beyond the expert mental stage. In Arkansas the sys tematic dipping of cattle was frs: tried by the writer in Newton county. The cattle were allowed the free range and were dipped every three weeks. In the fall they were permit i'd to move in the tick-free area by inspection, and the following year the county was placed to the north of the quarantine line.

say that this term BUSINESS MEN means more yhan merely mer- chants, bankers. lawyers, etc. It means FARMERS as well and if there is any man who can be classed as a business man" it is the Monroe County farmer who is digging success and dollars out of the ground. A successful farmer is one-fourth farmer and three-fourths BUSI- NESS MAN.
 This farmer business m a n plans his work and works his plans. He knows what he is doing and does what he knows. He figures on what will pay best, how to save and turn his rainy days into cash, how to grow and raise that which will pay best, how to make all ends meet and how to raise his family so as to honor himself. his country and to glorify God.
 Yes sir, whenever the ARGUS man uses the term business men," this means FARMERS as well as merchants, lawyers, bankers, etc. Get it, and don t forget it please.

SENATOR CLARKE's position in opposing the administration merchant arine purchase measure may be excused but his method of opposition in throw ing'' his party is altogether like the Senator, and can not be condoned for. The administra- ton, President Wilson and Secretary Bryan are altogether responsible for Senator Clarkes reelection to the Senate. While the writer doesn't pose as a political prophet, the Senator s action at this particular and critical time, is but a complete and perfect indication ot hls atterances in opposing Mir. Clarke's reelection. He is a strong brainy man but given solely to his policy of rule or ruin. Clarke doesn't belong to the same class of statesmen as President Wilson and Bryan and it is just bit surprising that these great and good men should ever have been fooled in the man sufficiently to have thrown their influence and forced his renomination as they most assuredly did in the last primary election. The only consolation that may come out of the altar is that the Democratic party Will see Senator Clarke in his true light and, consequently. close accounts with him.

first week in March in northern Ar kansas.
 The seed bed should be thoroughly broken and firmly settled. The use of the disk harrow and sec tion harrow before seeding leaves the seed bed in ideal condition. Seeding with drill instead of broadcast, according to the results of various experiment stations gives an increased yield ranging from two to four bushels.
 Tests carried for five years at the Arkansas Experiment Station, in dicate that seeding spring oats at the rate of two and one-half to three bushels to the acre gives best and most economical returns. More seed is required for seeding broadcast than with drill, and no less thar three bushels should be sown in this way.
 Spring varieties adapted to the state are characterized by earliness in ma turity. Northern varieties as rule are later maturing, rust badly, produce considerable straw, and do not fill out well. Results of variety test at the Arkansas station have shown that Burt oats lead in yield among spring varieties. This oat is of light dun color and has a slender bearded grain The Red Rust Proof variety with its various strains-Appler and Texas Red-also give satisfactory results. Early yellow oats-Kherson and Six ty Day-do fairly well in north Ar. kansas.

DWARF ESSEX RAPE CROP.

J. w. Topley of Tyler and J. W. Roundtree of Heber Springs, last year demonstrated that Dwarf Essex Rape" is one of the best grazing crops for hogs in Arkansas, and that it is relished by the hog more than most any other forage crop and required very little grain for the hogs where this rape is grown.

In choosing crops to replace cotton it is important that Arkansas farmers first select those crops which will aid in supplying grain and forage for home consumption. Where no winter oats have been sown spring oats should by all means be given place.
 To make the greatest success with spring oats the seed should be sown as early in the spring as possible. This will vary from the first part or February in southern Arkansas to the

Echos of the Big Brinkley
 Banquet of Last Week

Said Judge S. F. Prouty the Iowa Congressman who was present and responded to the toast assigned to Gov. Geo. w. Hays, T have attended many
 talk fests" but 1 believe l can truthfully say that l never attended any in my life where the feast of reason and flow of soul" was more enjoyable than this one.'' It will be remember ed that Judge Prouty drove home some sledge hammer blows on the Arkansas man who knocks his state and country. He told of his 1st experience in Arkan- sas of having purchased big body of rice land 10 miles east of BrinkJey, for which he paid S16 per acre. When it became known that he had bought the land, man who formerly owned it and who was living near by, volunteered to tell the Judge that he had been buncoed. that the land wasn't fit for anything and wouldn't raise anything. Judge Prouty wasn't discouraged by the Arkansas knocker how ever and put in several hundred acres of rice. He produced an average of "A bushels per acre, and sold the rice at more than Sl. % per bushel. After raising the End. crop of rice, Judge Prouty sold this same land he had paid S16.00 per acre for, at $75.00 per acre, but was careful before he did to buy several thousand acres more at a cheap price, which he has since been cultivating in the same success ful way, right under the nose of the unfortunate knocker.
 The real progressive peep le 0 this territory are very happy that there are a few men of the Prouty type whom, even the walls of the resident knockers, do not drive away. The Prouty- Penrod rice ranch is one of the finest, most modern and success ranches in Arkansas and is run by Henry Loewer.
