AIRCRAFT CHASED BY
FRENCH AEROPl ANES
Several Large Bombs Were
Dropped From the Zeppelin,
but Report Says That No
sOne Was Injured by the Exs
plosives.

PARIS, Jan. 31.-Several bombs
were dropped by the Zeppelin which
flew over the outskirts of Paris last
night, but they produced no such
= deadly effect as on the occasion Of
the raid of Saturday night. The Off
cial press bureau gave out this state
ment this morning.
"A German dirigible set out in the
direction of Paris, where it arr,Tcd
soon after 10 p. m. 1t was benz
barded by our special batteries and
attacked by our aeroplanes. Before
returning northward it dropped a
number of bombs, which, according
to the news received so far, did no
damage"
Representative of the Matin who
visited the scene of the raid say that
no damage was done by the bombs.
A police inspector said that three
which fell in a field did not stick into
the SOIL They were covered with a
cotton-like substance which burst
into flame. The inspector character
lied them as incendiary bombs.
The Matin says that it has re-
ceived information from the post
master of one of the places over
which the Zeppelin passed that a
number of, bombs were dropped to-
gether. The inference is drawn that
the Germans, seeing themselves
threatened by French aeroplanes. de-
cided to loose all their bombs at once.
The censors permitted foreign cor
respondents to telegraph whatever
details they could obtain bat the
Paris morning papers have many
blank spaces.
Five French aeroplanes engaged the
Zeppelin which on Saturday night
last dropped bombs on Paris. killing
and wounding over two-score of per
sons, according to an authoritative
statement just issued.
The first to attack the German
raider was machine piloted by a
ing the upper air. He pursued with
savage energy, the statement says
but soon exhausted all his stock OF
cartridges and was Obliged to aban
don the pursuit. One of two ma
chimes which were armed with can
non had, however, by this time man
aged to Glib up high enough, ant
opened an intense fire on the Yep
pelin, which probably was hit, bu
not badly damaged.
The Zeppelin was next picked by
a sub-lieutenant as it flew over the
suburbs westward. He went up II
with so to 100 yards of the airshil
and stuck to his quarry with grin
determination, some times flyinl
above. some times below and sons
ZINES on level. For So minutes tn
Chase continues, the machine gun
being freely used on both sides, unit
finally the aeroplane's engine brok
. down and the sub-lieutenant was oh
Iiged to descend.
The press is unanimous in demand
fngl reprisals for the two Zeppelin
raids on Paris, and also calls fo
81 greater efficiency in the aerial dc
fense.
1T is not enough to be indignan
at such tactics, which dishonor wa
4Hitself'' says the Matin. "Public ser
timent expects something else. 1t dc
sires reprisals-- immediate and e,
emplary reprisals."

EDITORIAL COMMENT
VINES AND WEST WINDOWS.

Too many farm homes are without vines. So many vining plants will grow here that it IS a pity that any home should be without ample protection in the summer from the hot sun. Two light poles stuck in the ground two feet from the door or win low and ex ten ding as high as the top of door or win dow and then three sticks will complete the frame work for 8 fine protection for the summer and the hou SC will be more at. tractive from the outside. Let everybody plant vines in April. The moon flower, the morning glory, wistaria, honeysuckle, matrimony vine, Virginia creep. CT, and others will do well. Cover west and south window; and doors and add to family comfort.

WHY NOT BE SAFE?

It will be the part of wisdom on the part of each and every farmer in Arkansas to play safe" this year and grow enough feed for all his stock and enough meat and vegetables for his family for a whole year. Corn, Clover and Content ment" and Pigs, Peas and Prosperity" will be good slogans. If the European war continues we can only market about ten million bales they may expect to get about six cents for 1t, less than 1t cost to grow it. Plant a little more corn, larger patches of peas. soy beans and peanuts,
 and a larger field of Sudan grass, and another acre of sor- ghum. and a bigger garden, and get another COW or a few calves and few more pigs and be safe, and then hold cotton until December or January why not! :!

The easy, oommon-sense method that costs so little-that Is % quickly and vigorously effective-is often the last resort of many Cstarrh sufferers. Why. 1t Is hard to say.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
1 WOULD LIKE TO KNOW


 see in the Letters From the People Column, an answer Gin part to the article 1 wrote en- titled, How Do 1 Know?" but not being thoroughly satisfied with this answer, l write again in order to get a more thorough understanding of the subject as to where are the dead; for like ''Truthseeker" am very much interested on this subject. was very much interested in Truth seekers" reply and have read all of his Scripture references with the deepest interest, which seems to teach that the dead are really dead. and are yet in their graves and that they will remain in their graves until J e u:s comes the second time and gives them a resurrection to eternal life on the one hand, or to die the Second Death on the other, but since l wrote my article l note that several more people have gone to glory according to the obituaries in the different papers. Some went to purgato- ry Wherever that is), some went to Paradise, and others went to Heaven where Jesus and the an gels are. 1 don't remember hearing of where any of them went to hell.
 Now, the thing the Farmer" would like to know is: Is Pur- gatory. Paradise and Heaven all the same place? If they are not, why is it that some go to one place, while others go to another place? And another thing that concerns me is: Did God pre- pare all these different places for the home of the dead? If he did not, then where did all this talk about the dead being in Purga. tory, Paradise, or Heaven origi. nate, and by whom did in origi. nate? It was started by some. one, somewhere. And another thing l would like to know is why do the majority of Christians keep the First Day of the week for the Sabbath Day when the entire Bible teaches that the Seventh Day is the Sabbath s m e of you well-informeC priests or preachers who are or the other aide of these questions, whet your pencils and give us some light on them, please.

 on H og Cholera

Hog cholera is the source of the greatest loss on the farm. Every farmer knows how profit ably hogs can be grown but for cholera and other diseases. Most of the hog diseases can be com batted on the farm. To prevent cholera requires veterinary science or expert skill. Cholera can be prevented by vaccination, but cannot be cured. As a mat ter of fact hog cholera can be ex- terminated by vaccinating all of the we'll hogs. One year is enough time in which to do it, if everybody would get busy and have all the hogs vaccinated. Of course, everybody will not do it now, but the more we get vacci- mated now the nearer we are getting to the time when we will have no hog cholera in Arkansas. Let's all get busy and have our hogs vaccinated and get our neighbors to do the same. l have had my hogs vaccinated and l want to see every other farmer do the same. am going to do all can to help do it.
 For this purpose have ob- tained the services of Dr. J. w. Logan, a graduate veterinarian, who has spent several years in the service of the government. He is now veterinarian for the State Department of Agricul- ture and will devote all of his time to veterinary work for this department. His services are free and his speciality will be hog cholera. If you want your hogs vaccinated against cholera, write to me and 1 will send him. There will be no expense to you except the cholera serum, which will be furnished at cost. If you have an outbreak of any contagious disease among your stock, write or telegraph me at Little Rock and the veterinarian will give the matter attention. If you have disease among your stock. write and consultation will be free.
 Live stock is the most import ant thing on the farm. and it is to the interest of everybody to help build up the live stock in- dustry. The election is now past and out of the way, for which we are all thankful, and now past and now let's all pull together for better farming, better schools, better govern ment and better Arkansas. By all means raise enough food for the family and feed for the stock, and keep down the acre. age of cotton market and no man can tell what the market will do this fall.
