never consulted in the transaction The story was told him as children are told the story of Arabian Nights and the bedtime story of the rainbow with the pot.of gold, and 1t seems to be about the same sort of literature. The farmers were never taken into the conf- dence or the councils of the busi- ness men and the government of fcials engaged in the transaction. We do not know why.
 It is perhaps sufficient to say that q business movement having for its component parts the most powerful forces on the American continent made an honest and strenuous effort to help the farm CT and failed and the farmers of the South are now drinking the bitter dregs ofthat failure. Ap- proximately three-fourths of the cotton crop is now out of the hands of the producer and the poor farmer who most needed money has already squared ac- counts and has begun the struggle to overcome the deficit that has taken school books from his child ren, shoes off his wife and threat ens the shelter Of his family.

YOUNG FARMER IS
 FROZEN TO DEATH
Jackson County Man Falls and Perishes From Exposure While
 In Dazed Condition

Newport. Dec. 28.-The body of Cecil Hester, a young man about 22 years old, a son of J. B. Hester, living west of Newport was found about noon Saturday in a pool of frozen water at the foot of the Rock Island levee in Fee-Crayton yards in the northern edge of Newport.
 The father was searching for his son when the body was found frozen stiff, by some railroad men who helped recover the remains from the water.
 Cecil Hester was seen drinking on the streets here Thursday even- ing and some of his young men companions had started to take him home. They left him north of town upon the Rock Island track, and 1t is thought that h. fell and rolled down the embank- ment into the water, where he drowned. The body was so tight ly frozen that an axe had to be used to cut it loose.
 The deceased was married re- gently to q daughter of L. J. Davis of Sulphur Rock.

THE FARMERS AND
 THE HOLDING PLAN
National Lecturer of Farmers Union Issues Statement Dealing With
 Cotton Situation

Peter Radford, National Lectur- CT of the Farmers Union of Fort Worth, Tex, who is an agricultur- al expert, has given out an inter view on the hundred and thirty five million dollar cotton holding plan, in which he presents the farmers viewpoint of the subject, Mr. Radford wants to know what hls become of the money and in vites the cooperation of the busi- ness interests of the nation in warehousing and financing the cotton crops of the future.
 "The value of the 1911 crop is six cents less per pound or $780, 100000 less than the value of last years crop says Mr. Radford. This is a greater financial blow to the South than the freeing of the slaves.
 The Farmers Union asked Congress to meet the emergency by lending money on cotton so as to enable poor farmers to hold their crop, but the request was re- jeeted, or rather modified by the government agreeing to join with bankers in providing a fund of S135,000,000 for lending on cotton.

imembered president of Chicago uni.
vorsity, that he was brought to real
ization of his responsibility in the
following manner:
When he was afflicted with cancer
and knew that there was nothing be
fore him but a hopeless, lingering
illness, he decided that the best thing
to do was to take things into his own
hands and end 1t all. He contideu his
decision to friend of his. u man who
had a broader vision on this point
than the great president himself. He
referred President Harper TO the
many students who had been under
his influence and said, Among all
these thousands many will fHce
crisis similar to the one which you
face now Many will reach the deci
sion which you have reached. tor they
Will think. 1t is all right: Prexy did

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put toge ther, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven Catarrh to be constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally. 1t acts directly on the

tem. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
