Fables Told of the Cat.

The cats of Alexandria were looked on as so many images of Neith or the PallaS of Sais, goddess worshiped both by Greeks and Egyptians. and it passed into a proyerh with the Greeks when they spoke of two things being unlike, to say that they resembled each other as much as q cat resembled Pal las. It is to Alexandria that we trace the story of a cat turned into lady to please a prince who had fallen in love with it. The lady, however. when dressed in her bridal robes. could not help scampering about the room to catch mouse seen upon the floor and when Plutarch was in Egypt it had al- ready become proyerb that anyone oyerdressed was us awkward as eat In crocus-colored robe.

SELL COTTON ON GRADE.

MT Grower, do you sell your cotton according to it's grade and the value of that grade, or do ycu and the neighbors lump 1t all to- gether. the bad and the good. and accept an average price9 G1o5 middling l84 cents. low middlng lZ24 cents, a difference of cent per pound or $5 per bale, are the figures shown by the quotation of the Little Rock Cotton Exchange for Nov. 6. The man who grows good cotton should get the price of good cotton and the only way to do that is to sell on grade. If this is not customary at your local market and you do not know the cot ton grades, write the Extension Division, Little Rock, Ark. The expert cotton grader from the U s. Department Agriculture will send tags for the bales and samples and bags for mailing the samples to Little Rock. The grader will give a prompt reply showing grade and staple. With that knowledge the owner is in position to sell for it's real value. Try it Write for this assistance which is free to al cot ton growers.

SAVE CoTTcN

With cotton seed bringing m ety- five cents per bushel at the mills this fall, there is no telling what price may be asked next spring for planting seed More than that. the indications are that there will be a shortage of seed in the spring. Leaders in Mississippi see the danger nov and are urging the people to save planting seed from their own crop. The College of Agriculture has already been ad- vised by well known cotton breed CTS of Mississippi that they will have no seed for us and ask that no orders be referred to them. Let every Arkansas farmer protect himself by saving a supply of cot ton seed for planting purposes. They will not be injured if stored in lots of less than five bales. Save the seed you have.
 THE SWEET POTATO HOUSE PAYS.
 No man who grows any consid- erabe quantity of sweet potatoes should attempt to get along with out storage house. An inexpen- eive house large enough to take care of the potatoes on place will more than pay for itself in the po- tatoes it keeps from rotting The house might very well be made large enough to care for the pota toesSf the tenant as well as tho7e of the landowner. It is an easy matter to separate the bins. Ven tilation and rapid drying after dig ging are requisites for the keeping of sweet pototoes. These can be controlled best in the potato house. The maintenance of an even tenn perature of 50 to 55 degrees can be provided for with a lantern or small oil stove in case Of severe weather. Arkansaeas Bulletin No. 124 describing the construc- ton and use of the sweet potato storage house can be had by writ ing the College of Agriculture, Fayetteville.

All persons interested in the or ganization of a United Charities society in Ruttig are requested to be present at meeting to be held in the parlors of the Union hotel at z:30 o'clock Monday night, Nov. 20. This is fast becoming the manner in all cities of looking after those who4 really need help and does away with considerable graft ing that is always done by some people. Should such society be formed all money and clothing would be given out to the needy by the secretary only after thorough investigation and the imposter would get nothing. When handled in this manner each resident can figure out just how much they in tend to give each year to charities and give that amount to the socie- ty to become a part of it's funds.

1t wasn't much of a rain. If it rained
precisely the same amount in Greene
county where the highways are pretty
fairly well graveled it didn't keep
many people from pursuing the pro-
grams that had been laid out They
ent just the same. The roads were
good. But generally over Iowa the
shower kept thousands of people at
home who wanted to go to town. kept
men in town who had business in the
country or in other towns to which
they intended TO drive.
1t rains frequently in Iowa. That Is
why we have corn and why Iowa crops
never fail. Isn't Is rather poor bust
ness proposition to permit shower OF
rain to stop business for day or sew

highway traffic spring and fall because
of rain and the frost going out, frozen

we could with the same taxation that
we carry now have all main roads good
