Cotton Variety Tests Give Important
 Results


 Cotton variety tests were made by the Experiment Station in 1916 at if teen different points in the state. The tests served many purposes, but two things are of much importance
 l. The value of the seed and lint produced by some varieties greatly exceeded that of other varieties.
 2. Such varieties as Dixie and Gov ington Toole were very much more re sistant to wilt than the ordinary vari- cities, and therefore proved much more profitable on land infected with wilt.
 The work of the Experiment Sta tion is for the benefit of the farmers of the state. Requests for informa. tion are always welcome

Calomel DynamiteS
 A Sluggish Liver
Crashes Into Sour Bile, Making Ton Sick and You Lose a Days
 Work

Calomel salivatesl It's mercury. Salomel acts like dynamite on slug gish liver. When calomel comes into contact with sour bile it crashes in- to 1t, causing oramping and nausea.
 If you feel bilious. headachy, con stipated and all knocked out just go to your druggist and get a 50 cent bottle Of Dodson's Liver Tone. which is a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel. Take a spoon ful and if it doesn't start your liver and straighten you up better and quicker than nasty ealomel and with out making you sick, you can just 20 back and get your money.
 If you take calomel today voull be sick and nauseated tomorrow; be- sides, it may salivate you, while if you take Dodson's Liver Tone YOU will wake up feeling great, full of am bition and ready for work or play. It's harmless, pleasant and safe to give to children; they like it.

Tells How to Losen Tender Corn ar Callus 50 It Lifts Out With
 out Pain

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once a week invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati author ity to use a drug called freezone which the moment a few drops are applied to any corn or eallus the soreness is relieved and soon the en- tire corn or callus, roots and all lifts off with the fingers.
 Freezone dries the moment it is applied, and simply shrivels the corn or callus without infiaming or even irritating the surrounding tissue ar skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any drug stores. but will positively rid ones feet of every hard callus or hard or soft corn. If your druggist hasn't any freezone he can get 1t at any whole sale drug house for you.

MILLION BUSHELS
 OATS LOST IN I9|6
Twelve Per Cent of Crop Is Destroyed By Smut-The Best Remedy
 ls Formalin

The plant disease survey made dur ing the last year and covering more ,ffan one.ha1f the counties in the state shows that smut caused the loss of l3 per cent of the oat crop according fo the report of J. Lee Hewitt, Plant Patholbgist with the University of Ar kansas, who says that there was little disease and loss where the seed had been treated with formalin before planting.
 Ten million bushes of oats were produced in Arkansas in 1916. Twelve per cent of this crop, or 100000 bushels were lost because of smut. The average yield for the state was 27 bushels per acre; consequently. three and one-fourth bushels per acre was the average loss. With oats at 40 cents bushel, tn average farm loss per acre. By treating seed with formalin before planting with cost of about two cents per acre and the work this enormous loss 10 the farm CTS of the state could have been avert cd. Every farmer in Arkansas should see the value of the fomalin treatment and use it before planting the 1917 crop.
 Two Causes Of Loose Smut.
 Loose smut may be caused by either of two fungi which are so similar that shev may be considered as one in the treatment for smut The loss from smut is greater than is commonly sup posed for: | Smutty stalks are usual ly shorter than healthy ones and not easily observed ? The boot some times hides the smutty heads which then appear only as immature or bar ren plants. 3. Smut ripens several days before cutting, and may blow away. leaving the smutty stalks naked and not noticeable.
 Smut is parasite plant that grows inside of and feeds upon the oat plant. Smut robs growing oat plants of nour ishment and weakens them, some times so much that they cannot push their panicles or heads out of the sheath of the upper leaf

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 9.-Many points
essential to clearing up the Colbert

to them as b. G. Brown of Cleveland
and j. L. Marshall of Philadelphia or
New York.
Representatives of the family are
prosecuting search for those men to-

On Sunday, Brown wrote to the
Lewis family, from Cleveland, using
Statler hotel stationery, saying that
he and friend witnessed the escape of
a man from the apartment of Maize
Colbert, in the Wilton and directed the
Lewis family to telephone him for
further information at 1885 East
