INCREASE ACREAGE
 PUT IN FOOD, FEED
Agriculturists Not Advocating Cut in
 Cotton Acreage in Arkansas.

"A wrong impression of the pur- poses of the second Safe Farming campaign has seemed to have gained headway in some places in Arkansas
 and this should be corrected said W. c. Lassetter, acting director of the agricultural extension division of the
 University of Arkansas. "This cam paign is not a campaign for back yard gardens or an effort to cut the cotton acreage in the state. In fact the agricultural forces engaged in this campaign to man all believe that every farmer should grow all the cot ton he can do so according to sound business principles. We are advOcat- ing, however. the independent Arkan' . sas farmer and believe that sudh a farmer can only be the one who will raise his own feed and food Stuffs to oe consumed on the place so that he can sell his cotton at the best time and get the best price. We want our people to use their cotton money to buy better live stock, more home com forts and to educate the children 1n- stead of swapping good cotton dollars with the Northern farmer for his feed and food products.
 gro be most prosperous our peo' pie must raise their own feed and food at home. sell their cotton for just as mudh as they can get for it and keep the money in Arkansas. After years of experience we have found that when cotton is high, everything else is high and consequently we are not getting very far if we are not Independent of the Northern farmer. Every man should be determined to start the new year right and avoid gambling or 1917 prices. Cotton when produced must be held or sold and cannot be consumed. These other food and feed products needed on every farm must be consumed and It matters little how high the prices go so long as every farmer has pro- duced an abundance of these products for his own use.''

declared at the annual teachers in

OF whom are instructors in the pri.

ferences.
Work in one school differs from
work In another" declared DR.

uniformity OF standards. Parents
must be assured of equal advantage
for their children In all the schools,
and should not be forced to move
from one section of the city TO an.
other because they imagine better
educational advantages are TO be

Students waste time in school.

More eloquent than the ringing
voice OF any orator that ever thrill.
ed multitude was the mute and
motley crowd that shuffied into the
recorders court. Wednesday morn
ing. at the very hour when armed
thugs were trying 10 hold d. 81
branch OF the Federal state bank
Sullenly they filed in until more than
400 persons had stood before the
Judge and listened 10 charges read
against them, for It WAS srraign-

homicide 10 tho theft OF automo.
biles.
There were more than $50 cases
OF feJonies. involving more than 400
individuals. for In many cases the
crimes we're committed by pairs.
The 400 dragged their nerveless feet
to the rail TO hear themselves ar.
raigned. mumbled something IN re-
ply which the alert clerk could in
terpret. and were hsndcuffed and
led back 10 cells in jail that was
already overcrowded.
Such was the situation In the high.
est criminal court OF the city, Wed
nesday morning. On the floors be-
low, in the same building. two po-
lice justices were sweating their
way through hundreds OF other cases
involving ofYenses OF lesser degree
those that did not attain to the
dignity Of trial in the recorders
court
Outside the doors OF the court
stood representatives OF many OF
the larger Industrial concerns Of the
city. who came TO assist their de-
linquent employees. Inside the court
was the strange situation OF one
candidate for mayor trying 10 un.

Minsling with these agents bent

OF some OF the derelicts who were

There were women with sleepless

young girls from whose faces the

they became women
And these arrangements were be.

" every so-called civilized race was
represented. From the slant-eyed
Chinese to the curly-pated Ethiopian
the cosmopolitan crew waited, each
with either personal or a morbid
interest in some one or the horrid
cases.
The saloon and the disreputable
resort divided the foul distinction
Of contributing most OF the cases.
Many boys, still with beardless.
