PLOW SOMETHING UNDER

The Scotch farmers a hundred
years ago had learned the gospel
of building up their soil by use of
barnyard manure and by plowing
under some green crop. The Ar
kansas farmers must learn this
lesson. There are hundreds of
thousands Of acres of upland and
hill land that must have more hu-
mus or they will soon fail to re
turn enough crop to pay for the
labor of cultivating. Grow clio
yCEtOr green manurlng as it is
called, or wheat, rye or oats. In
November and December cotton
farmers and corn farmers should
take their discs and cut up the
stalks and plow under all their
land not seeded to crimson clov-
er or other cover crops. The

POSTAL SAVINGS.
Amount That VIII bear Interest in
creased to $1,000.

Larger postal savings deposits will now
be accepted at the local as we'll as all
other postofiices This is made possible
by an amendment to the postal savings
act just approved by President Wilson,
a postal savings depositor may now have
an account amounting to 1900 upon
which interest will be paid Formerly
500 was the maximum amount he could
have to his credit. This enlargement of
postal savings facilities will be gratifying
to thousands of depositors who have al
ready reached the old $500 limit and are
anxious to entrust more of their savings
to Uncle Sam. Another feature of the
amendment that will avoid further en-
barrassment to the public and to postal
officials is the doing away with the limit
on the amount that could be accepted
from a depositor monthly. Under the
old law only sl0O could be deposited in A
calendar month. The amendment abol-
ishes this restriction.
