 CROP IN JACKSON

Newport, Jan. 1.-Garlic
 growing may become one of the important money crops of this county, according to those
 who have experimented with the plan. Last s.ason small quantity of garlic was planted at Tuckerman, 10 miles north of Newport, and the venture was so profitable that 5000 pounds will be put out there this month. Commissioner of Agriculture John H. Page is also putting in a good sized crop at his farm near Swifton and B. F. Balch and other pros porous farmers of Balch are putting in large crops.

TO LIVE LONG!

A recipe given by a famous physician for hong life was okeep the kidneys in good order Try to eliminate thru the skin and intestines the poisons that otherwise clog the kidneys. Avoid eat ing meat as much as possible; avoid too much salt, alcohol, tea. Try a milk and vegetable diet. Drink plenty of water, and exercise so you sweat - the skin helps to eliminate the toxic poisons and uric aeid.s
 For those past middle life, for those easily recognized symptoms of inham- nation, as backache, scalding "water," ]" or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, "rusty" joints, stiffness, get Anuric at the drug store. This Is q wonderful eAminator of uric acid and was discovered by Dr. Pierce of Invalids Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y. If your druggist does not keep 1t send 10 cents to Dr. Pierce for trial package and you will find that it is many times more potent than lithia and that it dissolyes uric acid as bot water does sugar

NO BREED OF HOGS I'M
 MUNE FROM CHOLERA

Hog cholera is again com manding the attention of the
 farmers in many sections of Arkansas and should be given serious attention at this time, says Dr. R. M. Cow, State Ve- terian. There are always more hogs lost in winter from chol- era than in summer because the animals are usually brought up and are consequently in closer contact; thus, the dis eased animals spread the chol- era among the healthy animals. Farmers should not be fooled. There is no breed of hogs na- turally immune from hog chol- era. The only way to eradicate
 the disease is to clean up our neighborhoods and this can be done by organizations among the farmers for a systematic
 fight against the disease. Whole communities must get together and enforce the burning of all

GOOD ROADS MEETING
 LITTLE ROCK JAN. r

Secretary K. C. Schafer, of Little Rock announces that the 1917 meeting of the Arkansas Good Roads Association will be held at the Hotel Marion Aud itorium Jan. Is and 19. One feature of the program will be moving pictures of road con- struction. Every town through its mayor, every ntythrough it's judge and every conner cial organization is expected to send delegates. There is more interest in good roads in Arkansas at this time than ever before. This is due to several causes. One is the fact that thousands of dollars of govern ment funds await distribution in Arkansas for road improve ments, that the Alexander road law has been tried out and found workable and that a number of national highways through the state, are project ed and have caused many local good roads organizations to become active.

CALOMEL DYNAMTTES
 4 SLUGGISH LIVER Crashes into sour bile, making you sick and you lose
 a days work.

Calomel salivates It's mercury. Calomel acts like dynamite on slug gish liver. When ealomel comes into contact with sour bile it crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea.
 If you feel bilious, headachy, consti- pated and all knocked out, just 20 to your druggist and get 50 cent bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is a harm less vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn't start your liver and straighten you up better and quicker than nasty ealomel and without making you sick you just go back and get your money
 If you take calomel today you'll be sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides, it may salivate you, while if you take Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up feeling great, full of ambition and ready for work or play. It's harmless, pleas ant and safe to give to children; they like it.

CARE OF BROOD SOWS

Every year large numbers of pigs are born dead or born in such a weakened conditionthey
 never develop into good strong pigs. This loss could largely be
 prevented by the proper feed ing and care of the broodsows. Every hog owner should keep
 in mind that while the SOW is carrying pigs she is doing dou-
 ble duty. First, the duty of
 keeping up her own body and second, the duty of developing the fetal young. A pregnant SOW needs more feed and a diff ferent kind of feed from the SOW not carrying pigs. The mis- take is often made in feeding the pregnant SOW corn alone. This is bad practice because the SOW needs something to devel- op bone and muscle. Corn in combination with alfalfa, clov- CT, cowpea, or soybean hay IS good. Iowa Station has shown where brood sows were fed corn alone the average weight of pigs when born was only IT b., while the sows fed corn and alfalfa hay in com bination produced pigs weigh ing 2.3. Where none of the above hays or a green pasture are available, skim milk can be used to good advantage, but in this case not more than one- half of the ration should be made of corn. Better one part corn to three parts sweet milk. Green feed is always prefer able to dry feed and when at all possible green pasture such as rape, oats, wheat or rye should be provided. Green feeds not only develop strong CT pigs but often prevent a fev- erish condition in the SOW.

MUCH UNNECESSARY
 LOSS FROM FIRES
The Loss From Preventable Fires Much Greater Tn Ark
 ansas Than in Missouri

That 53 per cent of the fires in Arkansas for 1916 were due to partly preventable causes, and that a large part of the 30 per cent due to unknown causes were probably prevent able, is shown by a report re- gently issued by the Actuarial Bureau of the National Board of Fire Underwriters. Strictly preventable causes constitute 16 per cent.
 In comparison with causes of fire in Oklahoma and Mis- souri, Arkansas shows one- tenth of one per cent greater loss through strictly prevent able causes than Oklahoma and 4 per cent less than Mis- souri.
 From partly preventable causes Arkansas is 2 per cent less than Oklahoma and 1412 per cent greater than Missouri. From unknown causes, Arkan- sas is 2 per cent greater than Oklahoma and 9 per cent less than Missouri.
 The bulletin says that in- dividual carelessness is the greatest fire hazard.
