SECOND PROFITABLE FARMING CAMPAIGN WILL BE CONDUCT ED IN COTTON COUNTIES
 JANUARY 8-3o.

The second Profitable Farming Cam paign will be conducted in about 50 counties of the state, the cotton coun- ties, January to 30. All the agencies interested in the extension of agricui- tural interests in the state will parti- cipate. These include the government forces, the State Agricultural Depart ment, the four agricultural schools, the Farmers Union, the railroads, and all the organizations of whatever character whose influence may be used for the advancement of the cause.
 Plans are being made by the Profit able Farming Campaign Committee and the forces are being lined up for the work. The statement has been made that the farmers of Arkansas, who have this year secured S120, ,000,- 900 for their cotton crop, are $30,000, 900 behind on their supply of feod and feed stuffs The campaign will seek to induce the farmer to supply this need for next year, but will not ad- vocate the reduction of cotton acreage. It will advocate the raising of enough food and feed stuffs for home con- sumption, and then devote their re- maining acreage to the raising of an early maturing long-staple cotton. There is a general opposition to half andthalf cotton, which is said to be on ly little better than linters. Farm CTS will be advised not to grow this class of cotton, and the cotton dealers themselves will make fight against it.
