WOULD PROTECT
 OUR FARMERS
PRESIDENT JOE LYONS OF THE SOUTHWESTERN SUPPLY COM PANY WANTS LEGISLATION
 TO KEEP DOWN PRICES.

Hoping to produce legislation which will protect the farming interests of all states, President Joe Lyons of the Southwestern Supply Company, has written a letter to United States Sen ator Joe T. Robinson suggesting that the government protect the prices on agricultural implements.
 The letter is in keeping with the policy of the government in conserva- tion of food supply and better farm ing. It follows:
 Senator Joe T. Robinson, Washing ton, D. c.
 My Dear Senator: The war of the allies and the United States has created sentiment throughout this entire country, sympathetic move ment for democracy to rule the world. The slogan for this country being Ten Million Soldiers to the Front and Twenty Million Men to the Field both battling for the same purpose, one with the rife and the other with the hoe, but as I view it, it is an un- equal task today The government can furnish the military end of it, full 1y equipped with weapons, while the Steel Syndicate is holding up the farmer until the price for machinery necessary to till the soil has become oppressive, and it continues to go

BUY HElFER CALVES CHEAP.

For those who want to get start or dairy cattle it is a good time now to buy heifer calves in Wisconsin. On account of the high price of milk ill dairy districts, many choice heifer calves are being vealed. Many of these calves are from high producing cows and are calves dairymen ordi- narily would retain in their own herds They are being sacrificed this season for ready money offered by cheese factories and milk condensa- ries.
 Grade calves two or three weeks old can be purchased for $17 to S2O, crat- ca and placed on board cars. Farm CTS ln Rock Island Lines territory could do no better than import some or these calves this summer while they can get exceptionally good ones
 Farmers and dairymen interested should communicate with MT. Reid Murray, assistant in Agricultural Ex- tension, University of Wisconsin, Mad lson, Wis, or address L. M. Allen, Passenger Traffic Manager, Rock Is land Lines, Chicago, III.

FARMER BOYS
 GUESTS OF BANK
FIFTY MEMBERS OF THE PuLAs- kI COUNTY PIG CLUB GIVEN PIGS BY THE UNION TRUST
 COMPANY.

Through the generosity of the Union Trust Company fifty ambitious farmers boys from all parts of the county last Friday were given pure bred Duroc-Jersey pigs. and were en. tertained at luncheon at the Hotel Marion.
 The bank announced some time ago that it would give 90 pure bred pigs to boy farmers of the county as one of it's contributions to better farming The boys were selected by County Agent M. c. Graham. In selecting them, he was guided by their ability in their studies at school, their knowl- edge of the proper care of pigs and their ability to properly feed and care for the animals.
 After the luncheon the boys wit messed demonstration in the vacci- nation of hogs to prevent cholera. The demonstration was given in the rear of the old statehouse, under the di- rection of Dr. R. M Cow, state veteri- marian. Twenty-two hogs were vacci- mated.
 County Judge Lee Miles presided at the luncheon and short talks were made by E. J. Bodman, secretary of the Union Trust Company and chair man of the Arkansas Profitable Farm ing Bureau of the Little Rock Board of Commerce; B c. Powell, vice pres ident of the Southern Trust Company. and W. c. Lasseter director of tue University Agricultural Extension Di vision.
 Then three of the boys were called upon for talks and all responded with out the least hesitation or embarrass- ment Sherwood Mayo of Scott aged 16, told of the work of the pig clubs John Wirges Of Levy, aged 15, told Of the preparations he had made to care for his pig, and Charles T. Berkau told why he had Joined the pig club.
 "The Union Trust Company is, as far as know, the first bank in the state to give the pigs outright to the boys said MT Graham. At the luncheon given the boys this fact was commented on and generously praised by B. c. Powell, vice president of the Southern Trust Company.
 This is only the beginning of the work that we have planned for Put laski county. We plan to organize calf clubs among the boys. Also the community clubs that we have organ ized throughout the county will be use- full in providing for the community breeding of cattle and hogs. This will bring about uniform varieties of stock throughout the county, and this is of great advantage in marketing
 "The boys to whom the pigs were given were absolutely the pick of the county. I never saw brighter or more manly lot of little fellows. There was not the slightest hitch or discord during the distribution of the pigs, and this is in itself is rather remark able"

 Tt is very necessary that this gov ernment segregate sufficient steel for the manufacture of farm implments at reasonable prices to take care of the farmer, and whilst I am only a jobber of farm implements, and this appeal ought probably to come from the manufacturer, yet I feel it my duty to call your attention to same, you coming from a state that is now booming from an agricultural stand point; one which, in only a few years, the entire world will have it's eyes upon; one in which you are not only interested in being one of the leading, accredited representatives but one who is large land owner and who knows that excessive cost of the farm ing machinery makes farming un- profitable.
 q appeal to you to place this mat ter before the proper committee, as well as call the attention of our hon. orable president to this situation. feel sure that when these matters are carefully considered by both our pres ident and Congress, they will take steps immediately to remedy this trouble and give the farmers some re- lief.
 Hoping that I will have the pleas ure of hearing from you, as well as to note same in the pupblicity records of your branch of our government, I re. main, Yours very truly,

FARMERS SHOULD
 GET TOGETHER
7Y ORGANIZATION OF COMMUN- tTY CLUBS THEY MAY FIGHT HOG CHOLERA AND OTHER
 CONDITIONS.
By M. c. Graham. Pulaski County Democrator.


 This is a time for the farmers to get together and organize themselves for the betterment of agricultural con- ditions in their communities.
 Hog cholera is sweeping the coun- try. This is a disease that can be ab- solutely prevented by inoculation Of hogs by the proper method, and under the present conditions with meat sell ing at the present prices, it is almost criminal for a man to allow his hogs to go without being vaccinated. Wheth CT you have had any experience with it or not and whether you believe in it or not, does not do away with the fact that vaccination will absolutely prevent hog cholera. Ninety per cent of all the hogs that die in the United States, die with this disease so it is almost certainty that when your hogs begin to die, other things being equal, it is hog cholera.
 The proper way for you to handle it is for you and several of your neigh bors to go in together and buy a set of vaccinating instruments, which cost only $4.50, and call on your county agent for instructions on how to vac cinate, which he will gladly give There are several communities in this section which have already saved thousands of dollars worth of hogs in this way. This is merely one thing that you can do to save money. There are hundreds of others.
 If you would only get together and talk it over. What about a Conimun- ity Club in your community Why not have it. Why not throw aside your old way of every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost, and see if your neighbor hasn't acquired few ideas that might be helpful to you or if you haven't found out few things that would be beneficial to him. The old day has passed when every man can live to himself. Get together; or ganize a community club.
 Let the boys and girls go into the various clubs and do their bit towards the down fall of Prussian aristocracy and German militarism A boy and girl raised on, the farm should have some one thing on the farm that they can call their very own, that they can do with as they please; to take care of and to sell when the proper time comes and to have the money to spend when they see fit. The reason so many boys and girls leave the farm is be- cause of the fact that they are given no opportunity to take a real interest on that farm.

Even Hens Eggs
Nav Be Infected

A CCoRDING to q Census Blu

d = .dustry furnishes an average
Of 210 eggs per year, or four eggs
per week, for each person In the
United States. Their annual value
at the point of production is over
$500, 100000. These statistics ex-
plain the widespread interest in all
facts pertaining to eggs, either with
respect to their production, market
ing or dietary uses. Why product
so carefully packed away in a we'll
lined shell should become infected
and undergo deterioration so easily
has been a puzzle to many persons.
It is not generally understood that
a certain amount of bacterial infec-
ton may be found even in freshly
laid eggs.
The Journal of the American
Medical Association points out that
of more than $500 fresh eggs ex.
amined ut the Rhode Island Expert
ment Station oveI per cent

yolk. None of the whites examined
showed infection. The percentage
of infection obtained for individuas
hens per year varied between 2.s
and Is, the average being 8. No
hen laid all sterile eggs during any
full year. The percentage of infec-
ton for infertile and for fortified
eggs was essentially the same. The

cluded forty bacterial types, among
which were eleven cocci, twenty.

TWO GIRLS.
Tapering fingers are more often
than otherwise a birthright; at
least, a birthgift, my dears; but
gentle pinching of the fingers side
wise at top of the nail, between
the thumb and finger of the other
hand, will have some effect. Wear
ing finger clasps, thimble-like de-
vices, also improves the shape of
the fingers. But wearing them for
a short time each day is enough.
Whatever impedes the circulation
is more or less a detriment, and
these finger clasps are among the
number.
