 It will only be a few short months, now, until the political campaign, in Arkansas, will be in full swing. Senator Joe T. Robinson, one of the ablest Sena- tors this State ever had in Con- gress, will be a candidate for re- election. Several gentlemen have signified their intention of contesting the honors of this place with him, but whether they will finally do so or not is prob lematical, and if they do, it is most likely that 1t would be loves labor lost;;' for in these trying and troublous times it is absolutely essential to keep trained men at the front, who are capable and worthy. That Joe T. Robinson is capable no one will question; that he is, in all things, worthy, is universally admitted. It is just such a man
 IS our country needs, and just such an one as it will keep, no
 natter who may bob up to op- pose him. When the forensic
 battles of Democracy are to be fought to a finish, in the United States Senate, 1t is by common accord that Joe T. Robinson is the one man called upon to do the work. Where the political battles wage hottest and the con- tests are most uncertain, 1t is Joe T. Robinson who is inv lria- ply called upon, by Democracy's managers, to go to the rescue and lead the Democratic hosts to victory. In the late National Campaign his services were ca gerly sought in many states, and
 his good work was freely ac-
 knowledged in Missouri, Oklaho-
 ma, and other Western common.
 wealths. H. stood by Wilson in
 that campaign and he has stood
 by him since, as a U. s. Senator Whether scoring a LaFollette ol
 espousing the cause of his
 State, Joe T. Robinson is one
 man who may ever be depended
 upon to deliver the goods"

We have had our new schedule of late and missing connections of freight trains for two or three weeks, and the people are no bet ter pleased with it than when 1t was first iaaugurated. If you want to leave this city for Little Rock, now, you can take the l2: 25 a. m. train at Monticello s magnificen new passenger de- pot, and if you have good luck you will reach D-rlnott in time ta catch the :50 p m passenger north, on the main line; and If you fail in this, there will be another passenger train along about l :50 a. III !; so all you have to do for these I2 to 24 hours IS to stalk about the streets of Der | mott and behold the beauties of
 the city. B 1t this is mt your only show: You can board the
 lay local freight, here, at aboat
 l2 m., and nothing unusual hap pening you will reach Little Rock sometime the next day.
 This is, indeed, a great service we have, and our understanding that we are under obligations for it to the Raj road Commission f Arkansas, and not the mana | CTS of the Railr ad.

Early Chicks Bring Winter Eggs

Early Matching is the secret of winter
egg production, say specialists in the
U. S. Department of Agriculture. The
pullet that is Matched early natures
early and is ready to lay eggs in the
fall when the supply is scarcest and
prices highest. Chickens that are ex-
pected to be revenue producers for their
owners later in the year should be out
of their shells by April 80, at the latest.
If they are properly cared for thereafter
they will begin to lay eggs at the very
time that eggs are wanted.
To great extent the poultrymen of
the country have overlooked this simple
fact. For one thing, birds hatched
later in the spring or summer are not in
clined to become broody Until late the
following season and thus an unprofit-
able circle is formed. Each year
pullets mature too late to produce in the
fall and winter, and they sit too late for
their osffpring to do better. The poultry
man who wishes to get really good
returns from his flock must break this
circle.
