 HERE FOR MEET
Brinkley Editor Finds Great Progress Made by Pine
 Bluff in Recent Years.

'tPine Bluff has most certainly grown, prospered and progressed in the twenty years since l was here, publisher of the Monroe County Citi- zen, of Brinkley, who is here in at tendance upon the annual session Of the grand lodge, Knights of Pythias.
 Mr. Williams is one of the leading residents of his section of the state, and as a newspaperman, keeps in close touch with the development of the entire state. He is especially keen on the manner in which Ar kansas has been moving forward, having just completed quite a tour of the state, before the recent con- ven'tion at Texarkana of the press association. and with the editors. From Brinkley to Little Rock, MT. Williams travelled on the Rock lsland and from Little Rock to Texarkana he travelled on the Iron Mountain With the editors he travelled along the Cotton Belt.
 Everywhere, on all these roads the signs are unmistakable," he said "This state is moving forward at great leaps and bounds. Brick build ings are going up everywhere, great quantities of new lands are being put into cultivation, the population Of all cities and towns is increasing business in all lines is satisfactory and a general air of optimism pre- vails in all quarters"
 l Mir. Williams is an enthusiast or diversification of crops, and says i I is plain to be seen that the Arkansas farmer has profited hugely iron practicing crop rotation and crol diversification. Red rice" whicl generally causes much trouble in rlc; growing sections, is eliminated in tht Brinkley section, he said, because thu 1 farmers rotate. planting corn, cotton potatoes or other crons on the rlc' lands every few years. This pre- vents the growing of the spotted rice and actually adds to the value of thu land, which produces better crops O rice. The acreage in cultivation Il rice this year is greater than las year, and at the same time there | an increase on he acreage in food stuffs, because much more land l
 being cultivated than heretofore.
 The farmer is living at home. sai Nr. williams He did it last yeal and found it profitable and satisfac tory, and he is doing it again thl 1 year.

raised 5000 bushels OF potatoes on %
acres, and paid for the farm with his
profits On the seasons crops. But let
not the city greenhorn delude himself,
by reason Of Shuey's feat, into the be-
lief that farming is get rich quick
enterprise. Not one man in thousand
who goes into farming will duplicate
Shuey's good fortune or management,
aud not one in ten thousand who never
had practical experience in agricul-
ture can equal it. The successful
farmer undoubtedly is the most indie
pendent OF citizens, but farming never
has been and never will be high road
TO fortune for anybody looking for an
easy living and good time. The born
and bred city man who dreams of
farm rs a royal road to riches and per
petusl vacation is certain OF q rude
awakening TO the stern realities OF hard
work and uncertain profits il he turns
from pavements To pastures.

man of today shaken off those old
time weaknesses, not only has she as
sumed stern independence, which to

The spacious ornament on high,
With all the blue ethereal sky.
And spangled heavens, shining frame,
Their great Original proclaim;
The unwearied sun, from day TO day
Does his Creators power display,
And publishes, TO every land
The work Of an Almighty hand.
Soon as the evening shades prevail
The moon takes up the wondrous tale,
And nightly to the listening earth
Repeats he story Of her BIRTH
While all the stars that round her burn,
And all the planets in their turn,
Confirm the udngs as they roll,
And spread the truth from pole TO pole
What though, in solemn silence, all
Move round the dark terrestrial ball?
What though no real voice or sound
Amid their radiant orbs be foundp
In Reasons ear they all rejoice
And utter forth a glorious voice,
Forever singing, as they shine,

The heart has many passages
Through which the feelings roam,
But its middle aisle is sacred
To the thoughts of old, old home.

Like rosebuds from the blast.
Where glrlhood's brief elysium
In jovousness was passed;
To that sweet spot forever,
AS to some haliowed dome,
Life's pilgrim bends her vision
"Tis her old, old,home.
a father sat, how proudly,
by that old hearthstone' rays,
And told his children stories
OF his early manhood's days;
And one soft eve was beaming,
From child to child 'twould roam;
Thus mother counts her treasures
In the old, old home.
The birthday gifts and festivals,
The blended vesper hymn,
Some dear one who was swelling it
Is with the seraphim)
The fond good nights" at bedtime,
How quiet sleep would come,
And fold us all together
In the old, old home.
Like wreath OF scented flowers

Though time and change in concert
Have blown the wreath apart.
But dear and sainted memories,
Like angels, ever come,
If close my eyes and ponder
