A warning TO the people OF ArkaR

avoid perishable things that cannot
be conserved Such vegetables az

taking care of them. There is great
shortage of cans and glass Jars and
much OF the food which ii has been
necessary TO can or preserve must be
dried or eyaporated
This year in particular II is OF The
very greatest importance that the far
mers should take no chances. Plant
nothing but staples that you know By
experience Will succeed in your com
munity, and If possible limit yoir
planting to those things that you have
actually grown ON your own land.
Every year there are many thou
sands of acres in Arkansas that lie
idle for several months Of the growing
season after having had crop of OATS
or wheat or potatoes removed. 1t Is
vital this year that every such acre
should be Immediately replanted to
some other crop. provided that it is
possible for the owner 10 secure the
necessary labor and seed. II he can
