of Act No. 2 is TO give the people
what they want. II states that Act No.
2 is no. a liquor bill. but a peoples
bill, and that it is endorsed BY states
nlen everywhere.
Everybody knows that in 1912 the
prohibition fight was complicated wit
the grandfather clause" fight. As q
result many negro votes were cast
against prohibition. But since that
time negro teachers and preachers as
well as white friends of the negro
have done great work in showing
the negroes that liquor is one OF their
greatest enemies, and the effect Of this
work is shown in several parts Of the
state where he negroes are taking
an active part against the adoption OF
Act No. 2.
That sentiment is now more strong
~ in favor of local option than it was
in 1912, is statement thai the peo-
pie of Arkansas know is without
foundation.
The statement that the sole purpose
of Act No sis to give the people
what they want" should be revised C
read 10 give the people what few
people Including brewers and distil-
lers in other states want them &c

The statement that Act No. 2 is no
liquor bill is amusing.
Finally this advertisement says tha'
Act No. is endorsed by statesmen
everywhere. This should read else
where" because it is not endorsed By
statesmen in Arkansas.-LitIle RocE

NEW USE FOR PHONE.
Thrifty Servant Girl Found Receiver
Useful in Darning.

Little Rock, July ga new use
has been discovered for the telephone
"a use which the Southwestern Tele-
graph and Telephone company, does
not wish to see become general. A
trouble man was sent out in a city
to locate the cause for a telephone
going "dead." The employee searched
all the connections, and, finding moth
ing, went into the residence to take a
look at the instrument itself. Imagine
his displeasure to see a servant girl,
of foreign birth, sitting beside the
phone and calmly knitting away upon
the heel of sock with the receiver
for darning egg. The girl admitted
that she had been thus engaged for
several hours, and having the receiver
of the hook, of course the diligent
operator in the telephone exchange re-
ported the phone out of order.

Another Word About SilOs,

More silos are being built in ArNan-
sas this season than ever before al
though even the homemade silos are
costing about one-third more than
they did two years ago. Practically
35 per cent of the value of the crop
of corn is in the stalk if it is utilized.
There are thousands of acres OF corn
in Arkansas where the stalk value is
equal to, the grain value. Let us
utilize all the value in the crop ana
then SOW clover or wheat or rye for
a cover crop and fer green manure,
pasture the corn field when advisable
and feed silage, keep more cattle and
make more barnyard manure. Write

Little Rock, for bulletins on home
made silos and cement silos with bills
of materials and cost of the different
types of silos.
