Little Rock
Farmers meetings have been
scheduled for IS counties in the state
and these will be held by the agricul-
tural specialists of the extension di-
vision between now and August 10,
says ". c. Lassetter, assistant direc-
tor of extension, University of Arkan-
sas, and United States Department of
Agriculture, cooperating. These meet
ings are the first of a series which
will be conducted throughout the
state between now and January l.
There will be about so meetings in all
From two TO six will be held in each
county. Meetings will be held at
places most convenient for the farm
ers to gather and at such times as
will make possible the largest attend
ance. At these institutes subjects of
better farming will be discussed by
the specialists, with most of the time
devoted to soil building, live stock, le-
gumes and cover crops. In addition
to the work Of the men belonging to
the extension forces, local bankers,
professional and business men will be
assigned places on the programs. An
attempt will be made to arouse more
interest in good roads and in health
and sanitation. Emphasis will be
placed on cooperation ana the various
ways in which it may be used to build
up the agricultural interests Of the
respective counties.
Special attention is being given to
cover crops Crimson clover is receiv-
ing popular notice throughout the
state because it is known to be a
greater nitrogen fixer than peas or
beans. Some of our best agricultural
specialists advise planting it between
the rows of cotton, not only as a cover
crop, but as a soil builder However,
most of the crimson clover will IN
doubtedly be planted in the choice
plots, which will be of one or two
acres, These plots will receive spe-
cial care and attention and the work
will be under the supervision Of the
local agricultural agent.

Went With the Load.

An Irishman, having arrived in New
York few days ago, got employment
with a lumber merchant. Later he was
ordered to take load of lumber some
distance away. Having gone half his
Journey he came to steep hill, and
while the horses were struggling to
get to the top his boss happened to
meet him, and seeing the horses In
such a difficulty, and Pat standing on
top of the load, he stopped him and
exclaimed:
"Do you think the horses haven't got
enough to do without hauling you up
this hillT
Pat, fixing himself more comfortably
on top Of the load, said:
"Is that what you stopped me for"
Then, with crack of his whip, Pat
concluded:
"Gee up, It's poor ship that can't
carry the captain"

for him. One recipient presented him
self before the German authorities and
declared himself quite ready in return
for a supply Of potatoes TO work for
the Germans and only for them. He
seemed quite decided and genuine in
his offer to work.
"Then you are quite willing TO sign

Somewhat OF a stir has been Greet
ed over the state by a recent publiea'
tion in Little Rock newspaper that
Attorney General Wallace Davis had
given out an opinion to the effect that
all state, county, district and township
officers who will be elected az the
next general election TO be held in No
vember will not take Office until Jan
uary, 1917 or, in other words, that
the present incumbents will not re-
tire until the beginning of the new
year.
When questioned relative 10 the
matter Attorney General Davis stated
that he had given out no opinion OF
the kind, nor had he given express
sion to such ideas, and he was at a
loss to know how his name was con
nected with the alleged opinion. Judge
John |. Moore Of Helena was present
when the conversation took place.
Mr.. Davis expressed the opinion that
county officers elected in the coming
November election Will take office as
soon as they qualify.
The law provides that all county Of
ficers shall assume the duties Of their
positions as soon as they receive their
commissions after the vote is can
vassed and the result announced. This
law also applies to all state Offices
created by the Legislature. The con-
stitutional Offices, such as governor,
encouragement, secretary of state,
treasurer and justice Of the supreme
court, are sworn in the day after the
Legislature canvasses the vote, early
in January.
The act passed by the last Legisla.
ture consolidating state with national
elections has nothing whatever to do
with the time of newly elected officers
qualifying, except that it postpones
the retirement of incumbents until af-
ter the vote cast in the November
election is canvassed by the various
county election boards.
