BUY WHEAT ONLY FROM
 RELIABLE DEALERS

A great many farmers are planning on adding to their wheat acreage and consequently a great many kinds of "Wonder" wheats are being adver- tised extensively. Prospective Arkan- sas wheat growers should remember that a variety which has proven it's worth in the neighborhood in which the grower is located is often times far better than anything which can be imported, especially when the buyers take a chance by buying seed from unknown parties at distance de- pending entirely upon the recommen- dations made by the person who has the seed for sale. If you cannot get good wheat seed in your neighborhood write to the College of Agriculture at Fayetteville for reports on the best varieties of wheat for Arkansas. Don't buy expensive seed of any kind from persons whom you do not know before consulting your county agent or writ ing the Extension Division.

CANDIDATES FOR WEST POINT
 SELECTED BY WAR DEPT.

Adjt. Gen. Mccain, U. S. army, has advised Gov. Trough that since the National Guard has passed from his jurisdiction into the federal service, it will be difficult for him to hold the preliminary examination as previous ly directed for the selection of West Point appointees. He is therefore re- quested to nominate, not later than Nov. 15, candidates for the competi- tive examination, and the War De- partment will make all the arrange ments for the preliminary and final examinations. The examination will begin Jan. 8, next. The one candidate making the highest general average will be designated by the War Depart ment for regular military academy entrance, examination to be held the following March. In the future and during the continuance of war, the candidates will all be nominated and selected under regulations of the War Department.

CARE OF CHILDREN'S TEETH

It is needless to say that a person with bad teeth suffers a severe handi- cap in life, but the profession of den- tistry has made suh an advance that 1t is possible to make good almost all the defects of Nature, and in the great majority of cases the fault is one of neglect. Many parents, by their care lessness in failing to observe simple rules and to have even occasional ex. animation made by dentist, are put ting their children at a great disad
 vantage. Examinations of school children show that very small per- centage of parents make any effort to see that their children's teeth are cared for. Dental hygiene is a sealed book to them, and they know nothing of the effects on digestion caused by the lack of the means to masticate food properly, or if the invitation to disease found in cavities where germs may finger. Abundant testimony as to the condition of neglect that pre- vails can be obtained not only from dentists, but from physicians and teachers, who particularly are in position to realize it's disgusting and destructive effects. For the present the system of dental inspection pro- posed in various cities will cost the pupil nothing and the city nothing. Eventually it is probable that dental inspectors will have to be provided by the city, just as medical inspectors are now, and the public can we'll af- ford to pay for that when the time comes. Meanwhile the dentists of many cities are willing to volunteer their services in the interest of the cause, and the cities could hardly do less than accept their offer.

PEACE WITHOUT PUNISHMENT WOULD BE PREMIUM
 UPON CRIME

The more desperate Germany's plight becomes the more bluff it will put up; the more it offers peace on its own terms, the more the traitors in Congress who represent Germany and not the United States will per jure themselves and work against this country and for Germany.
 The sentimental neurotic degener- ates among women who flood a mur- derer's prison cell with flowers and scented notes will have many imita- tors who will seek to save Germany, the international rapist and murder CT, from just punishment for its crimes.
 Millions of men have been killed, murdered, because of Germany's fight to conquer the world; hundreds of thousands of women have been out ragged by her brutal officers and pri- yates; innocent babies have died in numbers too great to be recorded; fathers and mothers and wives have gone to untimely graves in the awful agony of suffering through the suf- ierlngs of their loved ones. But Weak-mlnded degenerates, men and women, led by Germany's lecherous traitors to America and to civiliza- .loh VIII struggle to save Germany rom defeat and punishment.
 Let such people be branded now as 'ne accomplices of the rapists and murderers, the favored friends of bar

AN HONEST CONFESSION

Charley Towne says a North of Ireland Protestant girl was converted to Catholicism and went to the church to make her first confession. The priest, thinking he recognized her as regular communicant, and noting incidentally that she seemed embar- rassed and confused, undertook to start her off.
 "Well, my child," he inquired kindly what have you been doing since the last time l saw you?"
 "Gineral housework, father" said the penitent.

Five Reasons for Fall Destruc-
 ton of Cotton Plants.

1-Hordes of adult weevils, o many for each plant in the held q are killed outright. . 2-Many more weevils that are in the immature stages, sometimes as many as hun- . dred for each plant in the field, q are also killed.
 3-The few adult weevils es- Q caping will be weakened by starvation, and the great ma iority will not have sufficient strength to pass through the o winter.
 q 4-The development of the q late broods, which experiments have shown furnish the vast o majority of weevils that pass through the winter, is cut off Q immediately. In this way hun dreds of weevils that would 0 develop from each plant are ab- o solutely prevented from so do- 0 ing.
