4 GRAIN CENTER - WELL, WHAT ABOUT LITTLE ROCK?

There was time when all of Little Rocks grain business was done by one elevator. It was a big elevator, but it could look after the business offered 1t. This same elevator is running today, but it can not and does not care for the business of Lit tie Rock grain dealers. It is ut terly lacking in facilities for this amount of work. Little
 Rock right now is one of the leading grain sections of the South, West, or Southwest. It now has eight elevators, a flour mill, four or five distributors of flour and grain who do not oper- ate elevators, and three large mills that grind meal, besides six that grind mixed feed. Now that is going some. They repre- sent every kind of modern mill, and daily turn out hundreds of tons of food for man and beast. The brands of these mills are known even in other States, and they are standards there, just as they are in Little Rock. The man who buys a sack of any thing made in Little Rock has in the label showing it to be manufactured or sold by Lit tle Rock dealer a guarantee of its purity, as well as wholesome ness. Little Rock millers make ali grades, but the grades are la beled, and you get what you buy, and full weight of that. You'll never go wrong if you demand Little Rock grain products. They are standard, and they are fresh. That is worth something. Specify Little Rock products and you'll always be cheerful. Let US keep you smiling.

 Jno M White farms on land owned by his father at the time of his birth, just this side of Ferndale. The Nei- meyer Railroad passes through it. His brother, C. M White, owns the ad- joining place, and is another good farmer.
 J. NJ and Mrs. White showed me through their fruit room and that gave me the idea of writing about them. In the shelves on one side is the fruit and vegetables canned in 1915, which includes almost everything imagiHa- ble. There was a white roasting ear looking as natural as when first shucked. There was a full bunch ot grapes in another jar. There were cherries, peaches, pears, plums, ap. ples, blackberries. huckleberries, dried peaches, canned peppers, beans and many other things 1 cannot recall. Some of these things had taken the first premiums at the fair. On the other side was a duplication of these things and more of the 1916 crop. There was also fine lot of cured and smoked hams and bacon. Mrs. White has been selling thest things as well as using them and wishes the could sell them all so she could have the cans for this season.

I put up for the night at Mrs. NJ. C.. VanDyke's. Her son runs the farm. Two real nice dogs make their home here also and were very friendly with me. The next morning I was wash ing on the porch when one of the daughters said to the incest dog, Get out of here Nigi@ He came out to where I was, but he thought the sharp rebuke had disgraced him for life and he hung his head in shame. l spoke to him and tried to get him to notice me, but he tucked his tail between his legs and sneaked under the house. If a dog is so badly affected by an un- kind word, should we not be little careful how we speak to our fellow beings?
