MOrtgages.

Thousands of Aransas farm CTS are out of debt for the first time in many years and other thousands are not only out of debt but with more than enough money ahead to keep their fam- lilies until next October. The wisest investment for most farm CTS is land. a small farm for the renter and more acres for the small farmer. But why no law? Let every farmer go to the bank and make a time de- time deposit of enough money to carry his family and meet farm expenses from next March to October. He will get four per cent interest from the bank on money left four months or longer. Then let him divide this fund into elght parts. into such sums as he may deem advisable. for the different months. and take a certificate for each sum and draw it out with accumulat- ed interest on the first of each month. With such a plan and a big garden and lots of chickens and eggs and butter and pigs to sell from March to October the farmers of Arkansas next summer can be about the most prosperous and happy in this broad land and can be free men when cotton selling time comes.

OUR PARTY'S NEED

A crisis has arisen in the cam paign now being waged for the presidency. The Special Inter- ests, Big Business and all those whose interest demands the elec- tion of a candidate whose party will deal out special favors to those who contribute more liber- ally to it's support are pouring money into the Republican cof- fers in a desperate effort to de- feat the election of Woodrow Wilson.
 The course he has so consist ently pursued in refusing to place the power of the govern ment at the disposal of large foreign investors in Mexico and elsewhere has shown them con- clusively that he is a dangerous man to to those who would use our armed forces to enable them to protect their investments be- yond the borders of the United States,
 He has refused to subscribe to the doctrine that 'The Flag should Follow the Dollar" He has refused to plunge the coun- try into war with either Germany or England over questions which have since been settled through the channels of diplomacy. He has hurt the feelings of New York by a banking law which has given us twelve financial centers instead of one. He has extended our mail service until it reaches to every corner in the land and his postmaster general
 
 has just drawn a check for over five million dollars in favor of the general revenue fund, thus turning in his extra earnings. while his republican predeces- sors have always had to ask for for more money to run the mail service of the country. Under him we have been given the right to elect United States senators by direct vote of the people, a thing we have been promised for fifty years.
 Under him we have enacted a Rural Credits law which will give to farmers as good finan- cial rating as they are entitled to and will enable them to bor- row money on their lands at a very reasonable rate of interest. While he has kept us out of war we have enacted laws which will place our army and navy at such strength that not even the war mad monarchs of Europe will dare attack us.
 It is true that all this will cost

The Resurrection of the Dead,
 Does the Bible Teach It?

The resurrection of the dead is the foundation stone upon which rests the christian hope of a future life. For further infor- nation get J. w. Pruitt's reply to the Rev. w. A. Hu0hes, the great apostle of the theory of the non-resurrection of the dead.

a great deal of money, but through the wisdom of demo- cratic legislation the greater part of financial burden will fall upon the wealth of the nation and not upon it's consumption as was the case under republican rule.
 MT. Hughes does not approve of MT. Wilson's course in deal ing with either Europe or Mexico but any other course must have led to war at a time when forty years of republican inefficiency had left us with no considerable means of defense.
 Since Mr. Hughes does not approve of MT. Wilson's policies which have led to peace, if he does anything at all he must take the opposite course. which will of necessity lead to war. His chief lieutenant, Mir. Roosevelt, openly declared himself in favor of war at the time of the Lusi- tania incident, and if Hughes is elected Mir. Roosevelt will exert a controlling influence toward war. Do you want war? Or do you want a continuance of the peaceful prosperity which the nation is now enjoying? If so, do you want it a dollars worth? :?
 If you do and want a continu- ance of democratic control of this nation will you not at once send a dollar to your local chair man or to the writer, for the use of the National Democratic Campaign Committee.
 We believe that the most of our people want to help to se- cure the reelection of Woodrow Wilson, and are willing to show their faith by their works if given an opportunity to do so.
 MT. s. B. Hallum. chairman of the democratic committee for Wallace township, took the trou- ble to see a few of the people in his community with the result that he has sent in the following list:

 Let every school have a pro- hibition. Let the boys and girls get up recitations, readings, dia- logs on this subject and put them before the public.
 Our legislators created this law under the demand of the people, now will we thru the Initiative and Referendum repeal one of the best laws in Arkansas ever had? No the good people will not do that.
 Some say that the penalties of the old law are to great punish ment. That it even sends fellow to the penitentiary for selling intoxicants.
 have never heardof that kick made on the federal laws, and that has been the penalty for years. To avoid that the boot legger would arm himself with a United States License and dare our state law. If he was convicted he could pay off the sentence with part of his profits and continue the business. Arkansas got tired of having our laws de- rided and trampled on. It was  said a thousand times that our prohibition law could not be en- forced. But when they gave us a sufficient penalty. the law has been enforced. Mayor Taylor of Little Rock says, After eight months trial of the prohibition law, 1 desire to make the positive statement that the law has been enforced in the cities of the state and no where more effectively than in Little Rock, the states largest city. All we needed to enforce the law was penalty. Now some are kicking on account of the penalty.
 When China desired to stop the awful opium habit they pass ed a law against the raising of it and made penalty death for the first offense. There is no use to say that they stopped at. If a whisky man does good business, he can afford to pay a fine every few weeks and then make money.

Let us make it so warm for them that they will be glad to quit. think we could promise them that not again will the prohibi- tion people vote for a man who is working for Act No.2. How any man can look a noble wife in the face and hope that his children will be good men and women and then vote for Act No. 2 is a puzzle to me. They tell me that more men are going to vote for Act, No. 2 than most of us think, but that they are keeping in the dark.

not. in the seed as was first supposed.
Smut can be carried from one field to
another on the shoes of men, on the
feet Of animals and on the tools used
in cultivation. Rotation of crops does
not kill it. The only way to keep smut
from being communicated TO new fields
is not TO contaminate the new field with
