To Raise More Wheat.

The County Council of Defense met at the court house in Fl Dora do at 10 o'clock last Saturday morning with a large number of farmers present to discuss the conservation of the present food stuffs which have been raised and also to secure pledges from farm -ers that they would plant given number of acres of wheat this fall.
 The indications are if the war lasts through next year that the South will get no flour unless we raise the wheat to make it with ourselves. Nearly every farmer present at the meeting agreed to plant from one to ten acres of wheat and assurances were made them that there would be plenty of threshing machinery and flour mills to thresh and grind every bushel made.

Cartmell, of the regular army, is untiring in his efforts to secure good men for the service, and is meeting with great success, due to the energy of his officers. The draft has not had a deterrent effect upon recruiting, but has had a tendency to aid, since drafted man is eligible to volunteer service until he is called for examination by his local board. Recruits now being accepted for the regular army may be used in filling gaps and completing the quoto of the Arkansas regiments, who are now in the federal service.

Democracy's first great victory in the world war has been won with hammer and saw.
 One hundred thousand men, the greatest industrial army ever re- cruited in the western world for such an emergency undertaking, has, within little less than two months, constructed over 24,OOO buildings for housing the new national defense forces during their period of training for service in France. So, when the selective army is called into service it will find, ready and waiting, the most complete and perfect quarters ever erected for fighting organization.
 With cantonments, national guard camps and aviation stations completed or nearing completion at half a hundred points in the United States, there is now being brought to close not alone the most re- markable record of building ac movement in the history of the country. if not in the world, but the most stirring chapter of activity ever recorded in the Southern pine lumber industry.
 The South, and the Southern pine industry in particular, can de- rive special satisfaction from the success of the great undertaking, for the lumberman, to a greater extent perhaps than any other class, was called on to do his bit' in connection with this work Lumber was the one big item that had to be provided promptly and in immense quantities, and the gov ernment early called on the lumber industry, with it's tremendous re- sources. to furnish the major DOT tion of wood needed. In fulfill ment of these requirements, ap- proximately 2oo,ooo,oOo feet of Southern pine has gone into the construction of cantonments and smaller camps, to haul which there has been required over 10000 | freight cars, or between 238 and 25O solid train loads of lumber. All this lumber has been moved without disturbing the domestic market, or causing price advances.

Attention FdrmerS

Every farmer in the vicinity of Huttig is urged to be present at a meeting to be held at the Princess theatre in Huttig at 5 o'clock Sat urday afternoon, September |, un- der auspices of the County Council of Defense.
 Speakers will be present to ex- plain the necessity of conserving the large amount of feed stuffs raised in the county and also to show you the necessity of our farmers planting wheat or going without biscuits.
 Make it a point to be here on that date and bring your neighbor with you. Union county has raised more feed stuffs this year than ever in her history, now let us save it so that all stock in the county will be fed as we'll as the people.

PLANT TuRNlPs FOR FEED.

Turnips as a stock food has been overlooked by Arkansas cat tie raisers. This is a mistake, ] especially in cases where the stock man is not provided with a silo." |" says J. H. Mcleod, livestock spec ialist, University of Arkansas. Because it has been found so far as dairy cattle are concerned, that turnips are just as valuable for market production as slage; in fact, where men have dairy COWS on test, they usually prefer the roots to the silage in pushing their cows to the highest record
 "Turnips are very watery, but it has been found that pound for pound of dry matter, that the dry matter in the turnips is just val uable as the dry matter in grain. Aside from the food value which turnips contain, they are very ben- eficial as a tonic for the animal. They are especially helpful in keep ing breeding cattle, sheep and swine in prime condition. Turnips should be fed to dairy cattle di- reetly after milking. They will tant the milk if fed previous to the milking period The suggestion for raising turnips is not given to lead one to believe that it would pay better to raise turnips than to raise silage; for, although the food value of silage and turnips is about equal, it costs much less to handle silage than it does to handle 'he turnips. The raising of turnips will be more profitable to those people who have not sufficient number of cattle to justify the building of a silo.
 MAKE FULL USE OF HAY CROP.
 It is likely that feed will be scarce and grain very high priced this winter; consequently, all farm CTS should make full use of the hay crop. In many sections of the state good hay is going to waste along the roadside and the railroad right-ofway. This hay should be cut and stored for winter use, since it will not only mean great saving but will enable the farmers to car ry their stock through the winter in much better condition than if they were allowed to depend upon range or pasture altogether.
 SAVE THE GRAIN.
 SOW " WilICI klotul SlOPS5 odOIl as wheat, oats and rye and con- serve both grain and hay in order that these crops may be released for other uses," says s. P. Welgart, district agent, Extension Division. Supplement the corn crop with a winter oat crop so that there may be a surplus of corn to feed the live stock engaged in timber and other industries.
 Put up an ample supply of corn fodder so that this product may take the place of hay. not only saving the necessity of shipping in hay the coming season, but in order to conserve the supply for other uses. Thousands of cars of hay are skinned into the state eyerv

fodder enough grown in Arkansas each season to feed every animal the state possesses. This is a mistake. Why not adopt a better farming practice?"
 SUGGESTIONS FOR COTTON FARMERS.
 The state produced 1,l54,OOC bales of cotton in 1916, worth ap proximately $loO,oOO,oOo. It is safe to estimate that on such a crop no less than $5,OOO,OOC would have been saved by observ- ing the six cotton Don 'ts" by A. E. Ayers, cotton specialist, Univer- sity of Arkansas:
 Don't let open cotton remain in the field.
 Don't harvest any more trash than can be avoided.
 Don't mix inferior cotton with that of better quality.
 Don't pile picked cotton on the ground in the open.
 Don't gin damp cotton.
 
 Don't allow baled cotton to take the weather.
 GUT AND SHOCK PART OF CORN.
 Farmers should cut and shock part of their corn at a stage of growth about a week later than fodder pulling time in order that they may be able to prepare thls land early for wheat, oats or rye this fall. Farmers who expect to put in small grain will find 1t difi- cult to prepare the ground in time unless they cut and shock their corn.
 SUGGESTIONS TO WHEAT GROWERS.
 Farmers who expect to put in wheat in addition to thorough prep aration of the land, should buy the best seed they can possibly get whether they are going to put 1T one or fifty acres" is the opiniel of the specialists of the Universit of Arkansas. Because in order t, insure successful crop. seet must be viable (alive) and must bs free from weed seed and be a gooe producing variety. In order to se- cure seed of this kind, the farmer can expect to pay good price for it. Those who will use the seed grown in the home community should remember to clean it thor oughly before planting. To clean wheat properly, flaming mill must be used; consequently. several farmers in the same neighborhood should go together and buy a fan hing mill, the cost of which will vary, depending upon the size and make. Where only a small acre. age is to be put to wheat, grain drills should be purchased in the same way, since it is better to plant wheat with grain drill than to SOW it broadcast. Broadcasting is poor practice, according to the results obtained at the Arkansas Experiment station, where wheat put in with a grain drill has pro- duced on an average of three and one-half busheles per acre more than when broadcasted.

MORE ROOM NEEDED
FOR LOCAL COURTS
Additional Quarters Must Be
Provided for Tribunal Re-
Gently Established.

Where TO put the new courtroom
made necessary by the creation of an
other judgoship in this judicial dis
trict is the problem that confronts the
county commissioners. Some part OF
the courthouse must be rcmodcled to
take care Of this tribunal.
There are new three Courtrooms on
the second floor and there is no part
IF II that could be converted into an
additional one. ON this floor are the
quarters Of the district, superior and
county courts.
one section of the building under
consideration for this purpose is the
room occupied by the register of
deeds in the southwest corner of the
second floor. 1t has also been pro-
posed that the rooms now used by the
county attorney and sheriff in the
southeast corner be given over to the
court A floor would then he built i'm
the second floor court to provide
Offices for the county attorney and
his assistants.
Even part Of the fourth floor which
is at present used for Jury rooms
might be combined for the new court
room and such plan is under con-
slderation. Either of the two south
corner rooms of the basement have
also been suggested as suitable for the
new courtroom.
Any of the foregoing plans would
neccssitate considerable alteration of
the floor plans and the headquarters
of one or more officers would prob
ably he moved from the courthouse
altogether. The situation must be met
soon, as early in June four courts will
be in session at the courthouse.
