EDUCATE MORE FARMERS.

II is coming to be recognized as a
most obvious fact that if We as 4 peo
pie are to again put our country on
an equitable living basis We must edu
cate more farmers. Not educate more
farmer boys for professions. bet edu'
cate more boys for farmers
From the incipiency of the public
school up to within the last decade
the entire trend of education has been
away from the farm and toward the
professions. Even the manual tralGing
schools have tended to swell the ranks
of the mechanical trades at the ex.
pense of the farms.
No nation can achieve permanent
prosperity without a great and pros
porous farming class. When the farm
decays the nation deteriorates. Our
farms are the very life and heart of
our country.
Some, though, may ask how we are
to educate more farmers.
Very simple. Make every free
school in the land primarily an agri-
cultural school, and a literary school
as a secondary matter. Bellies letters
is not the crowning necessity to exist
ence. Bread and meat are Educate
the youth of the land first toward
that which is most vitally necessary
to our national life, and when this is
accomplished, if there be leisure and
means for adding the frills, let them
be added.
Nine out of every ten high school
pupils on emerging from that school
enter the ranks of the tOilers, in some
department or other. If in their edu-
cation the farm has not only been
made attractive to them but they
have been given thorough and praC-
tical knowledge of its workings, then
a large per cent of them will as mat
ter of course choose that as their Oc-
cupation in life.
When war broke out between the
allies and central powers the world
stood amazed at the wonderful per.
fection of the German military ma
chine. But the cause behind it was
as simple as A. B. C. Every German
youth had been educated and trained
as a soldier first of all-after that for
a vocation.
But in time war will cease. The
arts of peace will again demand the
attention and energies of the world,
and among them there is none to
compare with the great art of coaxing
from Mother Earth her golden har-
vests.
But, you may ask, if all of the boys
are educated to a farmers life, what
of the professions?
There will always be some who, by
natural fitness, will gravitate to the
professions, enough to keep their
ranks recruited. AS a matter of fact,
these same professions could spare
half of their present members and not
suffer in the least.
Educate farmers. The farms are
suffering for them, and the professions
and trades are overburdened with
them.

Splendid Opportunity for Ambitious
Young Men and Women to Enter
the Service of Their Country.

Below is a letter from Mr. John A.
McIlhenny, president of the U. S. Civil
Service Commission, to which he asks
us to give as much publicity as pos

As Mr.. McIlhenny points out, there
is an urgent need at this time for
stenOgraphic help in all departments
of the government, and it is the duty
of all citizens, men or women, who
have such a knowledge, to use it
where it will be of the most value to
the government.
In line with Mr. MCIlhenny's letter,
we will, until further notice, allow
very liberal terms to those who are
desirous of qualifying for stenographic
positions under government service.
1t is our earnest desire to cooperate
in every way possible and we have
provided a special civil service train.
ing no additional cost to stenographic
students.
Young men and women of Arkansas
should not be backward in taking ad-
vantage of this opportunity to serve
the government in a way which is vi
tally necessary. We will be glad to
furnish full information regarding the
scope and character of the examina-
ton, as we'll as our special terms.

PREVENT HOG CHOLERA.

The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder has
a record of 95 1-2 per cent. cures. OF
Hog Cholera. If you feed your hogs
as directed, you need never fear hog
cholera nor any other hog disease.
And the directions are very simple,
just about what you are doing, plus
few cents worth of B. A. Thomas
Hog Powder in the feed twice a week.
Usually, though, Cholera gets in
before We know it. Then it requires
close attention to each hog-each
hog must be dosed-and if you will
dose them as directed, you will save
better than 90 per cent. If you
don't the B. A. Thomas medicine costs
you nothing. We-not some distant
anufacturer-pay your money back.
