The Little River news., 1916-06-10

AshdOwn people should be- ware lest they get into that frame of mind that will make themselves think that as a community they have all that is needful for therl to strive for. As a town we have many things and have accomplished many things of which we gre proud, but when we become satisfied we have reached the point where we cease to grow. Did the railroads just come to us? Were our public buildings and public utilities, which are models for the country handed to us on a platter? Anybody knows better. We once boast ed of a commercial club which did things. Are there no more things to do? Dallas, Kansas City, Chicago, all great cities are planning and working after new things harder than they did when they were villages. Why don't they quit and let we'll enough alone on the theory that they have all that is worth having? Because they have in them men with visions who know that in progress there is new life and prosperity and that in satisfaction and lastitude there is stagnation and dry rot?

soil fertility and "a proper system or rotation will actually build up the fer tility of the soil. We find that the farmers are more prosperous, happier and more willing to push ahead than before they started this system Of farming.
 We find that many farms have been robbed of their fertility by the one-crop cotton system. We must build them up not only by rotation of crops, but also by applying fertilizer and by refusing to sell any more of the fertility in the form of grain, etc. Our farmers are becoming convinced that the only way to obtain supply of fertilizer at a reasonable price is by raising live stock All these farm- CTS, who are buying live stock, will raise their own feed.
 Prosperous farmers means pros porous cities, and the banking busi- ness will flourish as a result. While we cannot see any immediate returns from our investment, we feel certain that Arkansas bankers can afford to help finance the farmers in buying livestock"

We intend to loan all the money needed by responsible farmers for buying live stock at six per cent Most of the notes will run for not less than two years.

FRUIT AND ECONOMY.

The prospect for a generously suff.- cient crop of fruits of various kinds is said by the expert forecasters to be good. Cherries, peaches, plums, ap- ples and the berries are expected to be plentiful With this in mind, the federal government bureaus concern ed with such mat CTS and societies of one kind and another formed for the betterment of living conditions are urging that time be taken by the fore lock and preparations made for con- serving more of the fruit crop than ever heretofore. All of us know that the waste in our fruits is enormous.
 Before autumn is again at hand it is predicted that the cost of living will be even greater. All the staples, it is said will advance in price, and, at the same time, everything required by human beings, not only to feed them. put to clothe and shelter them, will follow the upward course of the food cost. The dollar that buys less now than it bought a year ago is likely to buy still less six months hence. Nor is there any prospect of a downward trend within the year. Even should peace come to Europe, it is the opin- ion of those we'll qualified to judge that high prices will continue.
 There is, accordingly, more neel now than in the past to make provis- ion for the future. And more need to put an end to the extravaganza and waste that hitherto have marked our handing of the fruit crops especially There should be few reports this yea, of peaches pears, cherries, plums and apples rotting on the trees or on the ground. The surplus should be pre- served. Growers can equip themselv- es at little cost with portable preserv. ing outfits, and, with their use, con- vert loss into profit. The housewife, at the same time, whether of the city or the country, is advised by the gov ernment and by the various Organiza- tions interested to increase her store of preserves" of every sort.
 The wisdom of this advice is evident. We have already felt the effect of the great war-we are from day to day, in everything we purchase making our financial contribution to the havoc and devastation that the war produces. The need of doing something to off, set the higher cost of living is obvious We can serve ourselves and the world at large in no better way than by eli minating a waste that is every year. an appalling extravaganza without eH. cuse or reason-Exchange.

THE ROAD SPIRIT.

A 1eW QayS ago paTtleS Iio1H DeQueen visited Ashdown to learn something of the road spirit here. It had been repre- sented at DeQueen and over Sevier County where they were working on the Jefferson Highway link that Little River county never would build, that we had built some roads here and were sick of the job. We told them that four districts had been fully organized in the county practically without op- position, that the roads in one district had been completed and all property owners were proud of them; that the others would be built when conditions were right. We told them that a route for the Jefferson High way had been surveyed by the state engineers recently, not with the intention of building it at once, or even circulating a petition until a crop had been made. We told them how read ily had the money been sub- scribed by the people of Fore man, Ashdown and Richmond to pay for the survey. We quote here a letter from D. A. Cook at Foreman in which he acknowledges receipt of check of our part, or one-fourth the money. It is a fair sample of just how live a thing is the good road spirit here. The let ter follows:
 "Mr H. G. Sanderson, AshGown. Ark
 Dear Mr Sanderson:
 Receipt of your favor of the 18th inst. inclosing your check for $100.00 account the Jefferson Highway Fund is acknowledged. For this check we thank you. But what we truly ap, preciate is the spirit of cooperation shown by your good self and the other enterprising citizens of Ashdown who attended the meeting with us at which place this money was subscrib- ed.
 A"I am very much encouraged over the prospect of more good roads in Little River county. I have my frs. man to talk with who has shown op, position to the move we have arted We have a great country for larger and better things. All that is needed now is for us to get together and pull together. Others will fall into the line of procession. If we can't get what we want by pulling, then let us try pushing. If we will not admit de- feat, we must win. Let's go.
 Again thanking you, and with kindest regards, I remain,
 'Ycurs very respectfully,
 ID. A. Cook"

In the loss of Kitchener Eng land has received a greater blow than she sustained in the loss of few warships. He was looked upon as the head and brains of the British war machine. It was Kitchener who organized a four million army under the volunteer sys- te1n. It was he who was never deceived by the struggle that was to come and at the very be- ginning of the war said that 1t would not be over for at least three years. Great wars gen. orally develope great leaders. It may be that this war has deve- loped a greater than Kitchener, who can step into his shoes. It may be that his work has been complete in the perfection of an organization that will carry itself on after the fashion of the German organization, which is an institution that would not be effected by the loss of any one man.

Fl. A. Granger was born at West
Milton, Vermont, January 10th, lS4l.
His early life was spent in his native
state, and in 1870 he came to Iowa,
locating at yolga City. where he re-
isided for time. On December IA,
-Ss-n ile was United h ri ysssttl
Miss Isabel Bremner, of this city.
The marriage ceremony was perform
ed in the First Congregational church
by the Rev e. r. Stiles, then the pas
Itor. Soon after their marriage, Mr.
and Mrs. Granger came to Manchester
to make their home. Mr.. Granger was
engaged in the grocery business here
for nearly twenty years. Retiring from
the mercantile business, he engaged
in banking, serving the First National
Bank in the capacity of cashier for
many years. About six years ago Mr..
Granger severed his relations with
the Manchester bank and went to
Jacksonville, Florida, in the hope that
the milder climate would be beneficial
to his health. For four years he was
associated with the First National
Bank of Jacksonville.
For almost forty years Mr.. Granger
was actively associated with the bust
ness interests of Manchester, and by
dealing fairly with his fellowmen he
established himself in their conf
dence, and won large circle of
friends who will miss him. He united
with the First Congregational church
in 1871, and for many years took an
active part in the work of the organ
ization.
Mr.. Granger is survived by his wife,
with whom he lived happily for forty
six years, and who cared for him so
tenderly during the long period Of his
illness; and by one son, Alison Gran
ger, of Lakeland, Florida, and daugh-
ter. Mrs. M. J. Yoran. of Manchester;
and three grand-daughters, Helen, Mar
yaret and Dorothy Yoran. and sister,
Mrs. A. H. Blake, of Manchester, and
one brother, George Granger, who re-
sides on the old homestead in Yer
mont. One son, William Howard, died
in early childhood.
The Democrat offers its profound
sympathy to Mrs. Granger and her
family in this hour Of sorrow.
