ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND WO- MEN, GIRLS AND BOYS IN
 CAMPAIGN.
10000 MEMBERS IN CLUBS
Preparedness Clubs" To Have Emblem as Mark Cf Distinc- tion-Divisions of Ten Suggested
 For Efficient Work.
Little Rock

One hundred thousand women, girls and boys of Arkansas will be mobiliz- ed as quickly as possible for food pro- duction, according to w. J. Jernigan, state leader of the boys and girls az ricultural clubs, and Miss Emma Archer, state agent for the home dem- onstration forces, who have been ap- pointed by federal authorities to SUI pervise the work which will be con- ducted in the state. In speaking of the plan for mobilization, MT. Jerni- gan says:
 This idea is not altogether peculiar to Arkansas, since Secretary Houston at recent meeting in St Louis urg- ed wide extension of agricultural clubs. It is true the clubs in Arkan. sas are already doing a great deal of work, but we will follow the recon mendation of Secretary Houston and an effort will be made immediately to double the membership of the Arkan- sas clubs, which number 10000 al ready. Letters have been sent to bankers and merchants throughout the state to urge them to finance new members by furnishing money for the purchase of pigs, poultry, seed and implements. Already great numbers have responded to this call"
 The women and girls In country and town will take part in the growing of gardens Special arrangements have lA tn aC+I, ,rlr OP canning and marketing products. Tn many instances small towns will be asked to make arrangements to dry surplus products which the producers do not care to put up in tins or glass. Miss Archer urges all the house. wives of Arkansas to collect and con- serve all glass containers. regardless of size or shape, and hold them until they may be disposed of for the use of those who will put up food prod ucts. All jugs and other vessels of like nature. as we'll as tins, should al so be kept.
 Plans have been made to give the boys and girls who engage in the gar den work official recognition MT. Jer- nigan has adopted a button whieh will be used for official recognition. This button will have on it the American flag in the center and on the border the words Agricultural Preparedness Club" Every boy and girl now belong ing to the agricultural clubs in the state will be entitled to one of these buttons and every city or town boy and girl who enlists in the army of food preparedness will be granted the permission to wear this button cn condition that the work undertaken is completed. Gov. Brough has prom ised to officially recognize the buttons.

DOG BARKS

A dog will re ember a kick longer than most men will favor.
 A good dog invariably regards it as a special duty Of his to protect ehil. dren.
 Beware of the man whose dog crawls under the barn when he sees him en- ter the gate.
 An honest man is one who owns up to the possession of female cur when the tax assessor comes around.
 Don't believe that anything is good enough for dog, or that a sick dog can cure himself by eating grass.
 In stopping dogight a large pailful of cold water thrown over the dogs heads will almost always prove effec. tive.
 This we take from the "Hobo's Com panion:" And when thou rupnest afoul authenticated yard. breeze thou on thy way" Do not feed a dog anything, any time, just any way; have regular feed. ing hours and feed him wholesome food, as you would any other animal Some folk get the idea that every dog that barks at them is ferocious | beast. They should remember the old | saying, The bark is worse than the | bite"
 l It's mighty convenient to have doe announce the arrival of company hy barking; even though you be in back field you will know when anybody comes.
