"Made in Arkansas"
 Goods

Arkansas will have more neigh borhood fairs this year than ever before. Why not in addition to exhibits of farm and garden and kitchen have at every fair an exhibit of shop-made goods. In most communities there is a mechanic who turns out some special work that should be shown to the public. If not in the immediate neighborhood there may be something made in the wider trading territory that will be worth seeing. Ex- hibit goods made in Arkansas, flour. shoes. brooms, tables, printed cards, letterheads, cir culars, etc. The shop stuff made in many counties would surprise most people.

FIFTH RATE newspapers are responsible for most of the trou- ble all newspapers have in the world. A paper in the hands of man without ability soon be- comes a drug in the field of liter ature. People soon learn that it contains no news and cease pay ing attention to it. Consequent ly the advertising patrons of that paper get no results from their advertising and the inevit- able result is that they join the class who says advertising don't pay me.

Have Your Soil Tested

The testing of soils is rather an expensive piece of scientific work and the Arkansas Agricul- tural Experiment Station with about one-fifth the appropriation given to similar stations in other states has not been able to do much of it. The new soils lab oratory recently established will permit Professor D. F. Hunger ford to test a good many soils for acidity, physical conditions and general fertility. Write Professor Hungerford, Fayette- vile, for suggestions as to talk ing your soil samples. The work is free, other than the postage on the sample sent in.
