Yes, sir, and iadusty, too: tho you
might not get the notion from some
OF our churches. Their pastors have
not all had a course in Industrial
education. | have known preacher
who was yerv fond of milk, and |
know one preacher who would rather
smoke a pipe than mlIk the finest
Jersey in the land Some preachers
have been so negectful intheir indus
trial education that they are unable to
sharpen a razor andshaye themse yes,
and anew one preacher in whose
family work was so unpopular that
his boys took the stove wood down in
the cellar to split it, so the neighbors
would not know they had to work.
have heard some preachers quote
the fourth commandment, and leave
out the vital point, six DAYS SHALT
TnoG LABOR AND DO ALL THE WORK,
Once | heard preacher pray save
us when we come to die, right in
the face of the command work out
your own salvation"
Notwithstanding these things, l
find the Bible mighty good book
on THRIFT, Abraham, the father of
the thrifty, was thrifty old soul.
and Isaac was some hustler himself
Have you seen many of their descen
dants begging bread, or inmates of
poor house? A Jew once told me
that there are more of their race i'll
the dry goods business, IN proper
zion to number, and fewer in the poor
house or peniten tiary. than any 9th
er people in the world.
| recall from the New testament
that Peter was fisherman, had
vocation DO fall back on when be felt
that he was not needed to fish for
men,, and that Paul was tent
maker, and worked at his job even
during a protracted meeting; and
Jesus was carpenter and was sub
ject to his father who was also car
penter. In fact, the Bible from COW
er to cover is fine book of THRIFT
a guide to industry, efficiency, and
economy, prosperity and plenty.
In view of these things, would it
not be good thing to give the men
and women who are to devote their
lives to the Gospel of the Bible
thoro training IN Industry, efficien-
cy in some A & NJ College? Would
state if every preacher in it were
practical industrialist?

PRESTON A. THATCHER.

The appointment Of Mayor Preston A. Thatcher tC
bs Industrial Commission of the state is distinction
of which he may well be proud AS far as the Mayor and
his friends concerned it comes without political
strings, too, from the fact that neither he his friends
sought the endorsement of the Democratic party through
s official committee in Cache county, otherwise Long
before the committee met to deliberate he had the ap-
psntment tucked away, and the committee simply met
ap adjourn.
Governor Banberger in his action showed that he
scared nothing for political organization but based his
determination solely the platform of ability In Mayor
Thatcher he has man that will not disappont him. We
congratulate the Mayor his honors and bespeak
Ksr him full measure of success and accomplishment.

100000 fewer bushels. In these five crops produc-
ton was down 1,150,O00,0OO bushels, or ten bushels
per capita.
A glance at these figures sufficiently indicates
one cause of higher prices and the cause is of such
nature as to suggest that noisy visits to the Mayor
will not remove it.
Yet things can be done that are not done. The
American system Of distribution is wastefu and
extravagant. Spectators in supplies are permitted
to extort. Retailing has overhead expenses that
require too high profit percentage. TOll-takers

lords are higher in New York than in any other
city in the world We have no market system and
attempt to get along with methods which may be

SPRING CLEANING

 Compounds and Cloths

In her zeal the housewife some times cleans not wisely but too well. Many spring fires may be expected from the annual spring drive against the enemy dirt and the Allies, trash and rubbish. But says a circular is- sued by the Arkansas Actuarial Bu- reau, ''the prudent woman is going to use her head as well as her muscle and remember that many house-clean- ing helps are deadly enemies to her home and family and house cleaning time is hazardous from the stand point of fire danger.
 This is the time of year when painters are busiest and most prone to leave oily rags about. An oily rag in the house is about as safe as pet rattlesnake. The oily dust cloth and dust mop and even sweeping com- pounds made of sawdust and oil will burst into spontaneous combustion when the conditions are favorable and they frequently are highly fav- orable

STONE COUNTY FARMER
 SAYS LIVE AT HOME

MT. Editor.-H you will allow me space in your paper l will say a few words about Stone county. I came to this county in November, 1907. The two first crops I made here made them with yoke of oxen.
 Farming operations have started in good shape and the people are mak- ing good use of the few days of pret- ty spring weather, to make gardens and prepare for another crop, and there is some corn planted.
 The farmer should plant a big crop of corn, potatoes and beans, as these are all high. But if we don't plant and raise them they will be higher than ever. Let Arkansas feed herself, for she can dot itI
 The reason that times are hard is that too many are afraid of the sun. They would rather have a paper sack living than to lose a drop of sweat.
 l raise corn, beans and potatoes and store them away until we eat and feed and use them up. Stone county is rough, but l don't own as much of Stone county land as would like to own. We can raise almost any thing here that we want to eat. I never knew what an easy living was until 1 came to Stone county. I like Independence county and all the peo- pie there, but I have a little home in Stone county and am doing bet ter than l have ever done since I came to Arkansas and don't run down any part of the state.
