WOMEN OF ARKANSAS

Prepare to serve your country by
assessing and paying your poll tax.
The poll tax goes to the school fund.
The schools need the tax and your
state needs you.
Patriotism depends on love of coun.
try and a sense of responsibility to
ones country.
The responsibility in a democratic
government like the United States
rests with the voters.
AS long as women fail to vote, the
sense of responsibility in one half the
people will not be fully developed.
Sons inherit from mothers as well
as fathers.
Does the country need patriotic and
responsible men? Then it must de.
velop patriotic women with high
sense of responsibility.
Woman suffrage means patriotism.
Women should vote because the bal.
lot is an added means of serving their
country, and is a great developer of
responsibility.
True preparedness means the de-
velopment Of all the country's resour
eos Until tho woman of tbiC nation
are equally responsible with men, one
half of its resources will be neglected
and the country will not reach its full
development Of strength.

Attention is called to the recruiting
situation of the Regular Army of the
United States, Only 10000 men have
been recruited out of a full quota of
100000. There has been a very seri
Gus falling off in the number of re.
cruits, which, since registration day
has fallen from 1000 per day to 400
throughout the entire country Par.
ticular attention is called to the fact
that all men between Is and q and
81 and 40 inclusive are eligible FOR en-.
iistment in the regular army as well
as all men who registered for military
service, 1t is exceedingly important
that the regular army should hn re.
cruitei to its full strength with the

FARMERS, DO YOU
NEED MORE LABOR

Farmers will please take notice that
if they need any more labor than they
can find they may enroll their names
with Mr.. Claude Crumpler who is the
county clerk of this county. Laborers
who want work may also enroll at
the same place. This arrangement
will make it easier for farmers and
laborers to find each other than has
been the case in the past.
This plan of mobilizing farm labor
was decided upon by the State Coun.
ell of Agriculture, Other states are
doing similar work and the United
States Department Of Agriculture is
doing all that is possible to persuade
the various states to adopt systematic
plans with the object of making it
easy for the farmer to get help and
for the jobless man to get work on
farms.

The day for the selectiye draft has
not yet been determined upon by the
War Department, but it is expected
the plans for its application will soon
be worked out and announced Ample
opportunity is being given in the
meantime for all eligibles to enlist in
some branch of the service, When
the draft is made, 1t will be equitable
and just, each county unit being re.
quired to furnish its proportionate
quota and ample and just opportunity
will be given to prove exemptions, It
is believed that there will be no more
trouble with the draft than there was
with the registration, as the men who
are drafted are in all respects as hon.
orable and as brave as the others,
They will constitute the National
Army, and as such are expected to
give a good account Of themselves at
the front.

Every summer the price CT eSgS
goes down, largely due to the iaCt
that so many of them are poor quality
and cannot be kept in cold storage.
Farmers frequently have the discom
fort of having many of their eggs
thrown out by the local grocer when
they are candled because they are
spoiled. Getting rid of the rooster
during the summer months will en-.
able the farmer to produce eggs that
will not start to hatch, which means
that they can be kept for a longer
time without spelling The only time
the rooster is necessary is during the
period when eggs are being produced
for Matching purposes. A flock of
rs to $50 young laying hens will pay
a good profit on every farm This
number of chickens will get large
share of their food from waste pro-
ducts around the farm, so that much
of the receipts from the poultry pro-
ducts will be profit. Young hens
should always be kept. AS hen gets
older her laying capacity becomes
smaller. She will lay more the first
year than the second and more the
second than the third Where a very
large flock is kept it takes more at
tention than the average farmer or
farmers wife can give, and the feed
bill becomes a big item. Usually an
average size flock will give better re.
turns One cannot expect even a
small flock to pay if one expects it
to scratch for all its food and loost
in the trees the whole year A young
hen with average care ought to net
the owner from $3.50 to $500 per year
at least, At this rate the profits from
an average flock would be a splendid
supplement to the cotton and corn
crop,
