women and children in every walk OF llfe
are given places for active service in the

ming next Saturday, made public last
night by the treasury department.
Treasury officials also made public last
night an appeal by Samuel Gompers to
all members of the American Federation
of Labor, requesting them to MD the
government in making the loan sue
cess.
Liberty bonds are a safe investment,
and it is patriotic duty to subscribe for
them," said Mr.. Gompers He added that
he would like to see every member OF the
federation subscribe for as large an
amount of the bonds as his means would
permit, and he gave his approval to the
plan to make Wednesday, June 8, Liber-
ty Loan Labor day, to be devoted to a
united effort by organized labor on be-
half of the loan.
The Liberty Loan Week program fol-
lows:
Saturday and Sunday, June = and 3,
liberty loan days in the churches. Cler-
gymen will preach special sermons on
behalf of the loan.
Monday, June 4.-Merchants and man
ufacturers' Liberty loan day, on which
the merchants and manufacturers will
unite in aiding the sale of the issue.
Tuesday, June 5.-Professional and in
surance mems Liberty loan day Every
insurance agent in the country will de-
vote the entire day to soliciting the sub
scriptions to the bonds and professional
men also will devote much of their time
to the same cause.
Wednesday, june 6.--Liberty loan Ia
Dor day and automobilists' Liberty loan

Saturday, June 0.--Children's Liberty |
loan day.
This appeal to the members of the
League to Enforce Peace, voiced by for |
mer President Taft, its president, was
issued last night:
lhe Liberty loan should be first IN |
the mind of every citizen now as the
most pressing step to victory and the
of lasting peace. The
obligation to subscribe rests especially |
upon the members of the League to En-
force Peace. Victory means in their
view something even more than success
1f the United States and our allies. Serv-
zee to the league is inseparable from
service to our country, and the way to
serve our country just at this time is to
)uy her bonds.'

Rightly managed, chick

meat and eggs for home con-
sumption, but a rplusforpay-
ing the grocery bills as we'll.
We do not advise, for the av-
erage farmer, poultry-raising
on a large scale; but we do
hold that from SO to 100 pro-
ducing hens should be found
on every farm of average size
in the South. In fact, on most
farms there are enough waste
> keep this number
of hens without any more than
a very nominal expense for adj
ditional feeds.

SWAT THE FLIES BEFORE
THEY HATCH

Flies are not only a nuisance
but they are a danger to health
since it has been proven that
they carry filth and germs on
their feet and scatter diseases
among our people everywhere.
Why not swat the fly before it
matches? This is easily done
because flies breed invegetable
and animal waste and if we
treat the manure piles on the
place or spread them over the
fields for fertilizer before the
eggs hatch we will destroy the
flies at the same time. This is
also true of all garbage and de-
caying vegetable matter. Fly
campaigns are good things but
they do very little to eXtermi-
nate the fly. If we are to ma
terially reduce his numbers we
must do so while he is in the
egg stage. Destroy the breed
ing places now and you will
not be troubled with flies later
N in the season.

BY w. C. LASSETER

This is the result of the fact
that Arkansas farmers have
come to realize that only good
live stock will yield large pro-
fits. Every farmer cannot have
pure bred cattle but he should
have a good sire to grade up
the cattle which he does have.
The old saying that ga sire is
half the herd" has long been
proven.Now is the time to swat
the scrub sire Permit only pure
bred males on your farm. Cat
tie and hogs with good blood
strains will give you more in
return for your time and labor
than a scrub.

Died of Premature
Old Age!
Gar Y. NJ. PIERCE, NJ. D.

How many times we hear Of compare
lively young persons passing away when
they should have lived to be 20 or SO
years of age tbs falal work is usually
attributed to the Kidneys. az, when the
kidneys degenerate, It causes auto-in-
toxication. The moro injurious hepoisona
passing thru the kidneys, the quicker
will those noble organs be degenerated,
and the sooner they decay.
To prevent premature old age and
promote long life, tighten the work Of
the kidneys by drinking plenty Of pure
water all day long, and occasionally TAX
ing little Anurie before meals This
can be obtained at almost any drug store.
Anurie will overcome such conditions as
rheumatism, dropsieal swellings, cold ex-
tremities, scalding and burning urine and
sleeplessness due to constant arising.

was received here today that
Newton Hamilton, aged 13,
Lee Hamilton, 8, and Lester
McFadden, II, were burned to
death in a fire which destroyed
the home of L. E.Hamilton, east

Their 14-year-old sister, the
only other person in the house
at the time, barely escaped with
her life. She fled from the
burning house in her night
gown.
The McFadden boy was
spending the night with the
Hamilton brothers, while the
father was away at the mines
south of town. The boys, sleep
ing on the second floor, did not
awaken until the bedroom was
in flames. Then, frightened,
they ran into a room where
there were no windows, and
were trapped by the flames.
Their bodies were burned be-
yond recognition. The girl, who
was sleeping on the lower floor
was awakened by falling
brands and ran to neighbors
for help.
The three bodies were plac-
ed in one casket for burial.

Whether large farm is
more profitable than a small
farm depends upon several fac
tors, the most important OF
which is the manager of the
farm. Some men have business
ability sufficient to manage a
large enterprise, some can sue
coed with small undertakings
and still others fail with every
thing they undertake.

HAVE YOUR BOYS AND
GIRLS JOIN A CLUB

If you want your boys and
girls to stay with you on the
farm, one of the best ways to
accomplish your purpose is to
interest them in farm life. Re-
member, "all work and no play
makes Jack a dull boy and
unless he finds enjoyment in
his work he will become dis
satisfied and leave the farm.
One of the best ways to create
interest in the farm and know
why and where for everything
he does in his daily work. The
wide-awake American boy is
not a machine. You cannot
make him such. The best thing
to do is to give him an oppor-
tunity to learn. He will enjoy
knowing more about things he
comes in contact with daily.
Once you arouse his interest he
will be more satisfied. Make a
partner of Inn and let him have
some of the profits for his
work. Now is the time to get
into boys and girls clubs. Write
to w. j. Jernigan, Old State
House, Little Rock, for parti-
culars.

Peanuts are excellent for
swine, and those who have
thin, sandy land should not fail
to plant peanuts for their ami
mails. Black land that is mel
low will also produce fine pea
nuts. In fact, peanuts will grow
on many different types of soil.

Livestock raising in connec-
ton with general farming is
essential to the maintenance of
soil fertility. The animals con-
sumo the feed, transform it in
to beef, pork, mutton, milk,
butterfat, ETC., suitable for hui
man food and the waste mat
ter voided as manure is return
ed to enrich the soil. In this
way the minimum amount of
fertility is lost and the maxi
mum yield Of food products OBJ

WADE's LETTER

Commissioner Wade issues the fol- lowing timely letter:
 Alabama has larger acreage plant ed to sweet potatoe this year than ever before. The crop is later than usual on account of so much unsea- sonable cool, dry weather. This will delay early harvesting, but will not necessarily shorten the yield, if given time to grow, as the potato has won derful power of making up under nor mal summer seasons.
 In southern Alabama early varieties are grown extensively for early mar keting. The usual time for early har- vesting and marketing is during the month of July, at which time the crop is still green and growing. The yield per acre at this stage is about half as much as it would be if allowed to grow month or six weeks longer nearing the stage of maximum ma turity. They would be better food, more healthful, easily kept by stor- age and the increased yield would more than compensate the difference in price.
 The reason why Investing and mar keting potatoes in the premature state became customary was due to a desire to get them on the markets first while the demand for new potatoes high to compensate for the loss in yield. This custom originated and was practiced under normal times when the nations food supply was bounti- full and the fall market for potatoes very pood. Times have changed and the producer Is facing entirely new conditions. Under present conditions the premature harvester will find that he will have reduced his contribu- tion to the nations food supply by half and short changed himself by hastily following the customary pre- mature harvesting plan. In view of the scarcity and high prices of food stuff and the probability of future high prices for many months, it is the patriotic duty of farmers to give their crops time to produce the maximum yield before harvesting.
 All fertile stubble land should be used for second crop. Cow pears, soy beans, sorghum and early maturing corn are the crops generally recom- menQed TOT second crops on stu pole lands. Seed for such crops are scarce high in price and almost unobtainable. Farmers who are fortunate enough to have them should prepare their land well, plant after a good season, if pos sble using as few seed as will give them good stand. By economy with seed you may be able to furnish a few seed to the fellow who could not oth- erwise obtain them. Do not forget that clippings from sweet potatoe vines may yet be set This should be done immediately after the next rain. They will make some potatoes and a lot of ideal seed for bedding next spring.
 J. A. WADE,
 Commissioner of Agriculture.
