Sunlight Necessary For a Garden.

NO amount of fertilizer, watering
and cultivation will make up for the
absence Of sunlight in a garden. Home
gardeners before attempting for the
first time to use back yard or other
space should consider carefully how
many hours day any part of the yard
is in shadow from building fences or
trees. AT least five hours of sunlight
a day is necessary for a successful
garden. The more sunlight they get
the better it is for most vegetables.

To the Democrats of the
 First Congressional District

Woodruff County offers to you a candidate for delegate to the Constitutional Convention in the person of her able and honorable judge, MT. A. L. Hutchins of Augusta. It is indeed a pleasure to THE HOME NEWS, a newspa- per published at McCrory in his county, Woodruff, to recommend him to you as being a gentleman whose character is above re- proach.
 Judge Hutchins, who is now serving his second term, is thor oughly capable of representing the people of this district in the convention and, if elected, will no doubt prove one of the lead CTS among those who go there.
 For several years before enter ing the political arena Judge Hutchins was superintendent of the public schools in his town and the universal expression is that he was one of the most competent and practical men they ever had. The work and teachings of this manly character which were im- planted in the minds of the boys and girls, who are today young men and women. stands out as a living monument to the subject of this sketch.
 He is the only member from Arkansas, representing h i g church, on it's general Sunday school board for the South and is also a member of the board of trustees of the State Normal. He is an active advocate of good roads, better schools and church es which instrumentalities affect the development of a community, large or small. In conclusion let us again state that no mistake can be made in sending the above gentleman to the convention.
