If every section of Arkansas had as hustlng real estate dealer as Lonoke has in J. c. Bradford, our State would quick ly become one of an endless chain of individual farm owners.
 The past week Mr. Bradford sold 320-acre farm near Lonoke for sl2.ooo, and it was an upland farm,- too Othe- deals will be closed this week.
 Most of our buyers are home people, said Mr. Bradford to the Times. Our farmers are now owning, not renting, farms. They have grown tired of mak- ing all the money for the other fellow. They believe in being their own landlords, and that's what Arkansas needs to make it as great State as it's wonderful resources intend it to be. Farm lands are cheaper and better in this section than in any other State. Conway Times.

Paid Advertising in Connection With Coy.
 ernment Loans

am recelvlng nun erOuS com municatiens as to the attitude of the Treasury Department with respect to the campaign now in progress in the country to in. duce the Government to engage ina policy of paid advertising in connection with future issues of the Liberty Loan. It is neces- sary. therefore. that the position of the Department should be made clear.
 In the first Liberty Loan cam paign the Department did not pay for any advertising space in newspapers, street cars. bill boards, or other mediums. Some newspapers voluntarily adyer- tised the loan free of cost to the Government, as did street car, billboard. and other advertising agencies In addition many bank CTS, investment houses, mer- chants and others. inspired by i the same public spirit. bought advertising space or gave over to the Liberty Loan part of the ad vertisine space for which they had contracted.
 There seems to be an impress sion that the Treasury Depart ment in the first Liberty Loan campaign applied for free adver tising, or paid for advertising in some papers and not in others That is entirely erroneous The Treasury Department did not ask newspaper publishers for free advertising, because 1 real ize that the newspapers oply profitable commodity is adyer- tislng space, and there are many papers which are not able to give free advertising, especially in view of the high cost of print paper.
 Newspapers and press associ- ations loyally co operated with the Government in the first Lib erty Loan. News and editorial colnmns were devoted most gen. erousiy to the issue They car ried it's message into every home in America and- deserve great praise for their service of pa triotism. The people of the country want to know the fnan cial needs of the Government and the details of the issues of bonds That is news. This information was given to them in the most comprehensive form possible and the newspapers and press asso< citations have the satisfaction of knowing that they contributed 1 immeasurably to the success of the Loan. Success could not have been accomplished without their aid and co operation. ] have no doubt that the Govern ment will have the same genuine support from. them in their news and editorial columns in connec tion with the second issue.
 The question of paid advertis- ing presents a serious problem for the Governm nt. The value of such advertising cannot be i doubted, and if the operation could be governed by the same considerations as those. which determine the action of private enterprises, It would be much simplitied. A private enterprise may advertise in a selected mum Der of mediums most useful for | its purposes. and may control it's expenditures for that purpose without any limitation except it's own desires or ability to pay If the Government engages in such a campaign it must advertise in every newspaper and pericdica! l. in America without discrimina tion: all must have equal treat ment. and should have equal treatment. The Government must be thoroughly democratic and impartial in a matter of this LSAlt Ia tnal-a t,o ad,-n.. ;..i,..- !
