SCHOOL CHILDREN
 MUST BE VACCINATED
Physicians of JudsOnia Have Consented to Perform This
 Duty Free of Charge.

The last legislature passed a law making it mandatory that all children of school age be vac cinated before being allowed to enter school. According to this law the school board has no jur- isdiction other than to see that children of school age, that is, between the ages of six and fifteen years obey this law.
 The physicians of Judsonia have very loyally consented to perform this duty free for the patrons of the school, and we will only have to pay for the VAC cine used, which is 25c per bot tie, and each bottle will .vaccin- ate two children if used up im- mediately when opened. 50 that parents having more than ore child coming under this law C. ,l have the work done for 121Zc each. Please take notice and do this at once, as it is absolutely compulsory.

Many seem to be misinformed as to the time for holding the state and county primary cleo tions. Many have forgotten the enactment under the initiative and referendum of Act No. 1, adopted last November, which provides that the primary elec- tions of all political parties shall be held on the last Tuesday in May preceding the general cleo tion. As the next general cleo tion will be held in November, 1918, the next primaries for the state and county officials will rot take place until the last Tuesday in May, 1918.

 Would suggest that each school board in the county make a small appropriation to buy suf- ficient vaccine to vaccinate the children in their respective dis tricts.

WHEAT AND OATS
 ON EVERY FARM
A Few Acres Will Make Splen, did Pasture During the
 Winter and Spring.

Little Rock, Aug. 14.-Far- mers all over the state are begin hing to plan the crops for next year. Because of the great war conditions are very different from what they have been in the past. All feed and foodstuffs are especially high and are sure to continue to be so until after the war, because tie allied coun- tries are calling upon us con- stantly for supplies. In the past cotton and corn have been the most remunerative crops in the cotton belt. Small grains have been grown but little because the markets for these crops have not been developed; there has been a shortage of machin- cry, and because the price has been such that cotton as cash crop has been much superior. With present prices farmers can well afford to plant some wheat and oats. Where they have not been grown before perhaps q planting sufficiently large to sup ply the needs of the family and the livestock will be enough. Where they have already been grown to a limited extent and where they have been used with some degree of success as a cash crop the acreage can well be in- creased. A few acres of these crops planted early this fall will mako splendid pasture during the winter and spring.
 Lands for these crops should be broken after the corn and cot ton are laid by and before har- vesting of these crops begins. If cultivation is kept up in good shape the wheat and oats may be sown in the cotton middles with little additional prepara- tion. Too often farmers wait until seeding time, then broad cast the wheat or oats on the surface and break them in with a stirring blow, and freezing out in the winter often results. In all cases the soil should be pre- pared in good shape, leveled off and the clods broken before the seed is sown. The covering may then be done with harrow if a drill is not available. Small grain crops sometimes are dis appointing because they have been SOWn Tn the poorest soil on the farm. Use good soil. The last two weeks in October is a. bout the right time to SOW in the southern part of the state. Seeding in the northern half of the state should be a few days earlier. Early seeding will pre- vent winter killing to a large ex- tent and will produce more pas ture.
 Winter turf oats will far out yield the Spring oats if put in properly. If Winter turf seed cannot be secured the Red Rust Proof varieties will give splen- did results in the south half of the state.
 Every farm should have at least five acres of wheat and oats, and in sections where they have been grown with some de- gree of success the acreage

A FAVORABLE FINANCIAL
SITUATION

MONG the favorable fac
y tors in the market are the
abundance of money and
credit at reasonable rates, a
sound banking position, in
crossing reserves, continued
large gold imports, and an ac-
tive trade in the interior coup
led with frequently bare
shelves. The best reports OBJ
tainable from the interior are
that trade activity at home will
continue for another season at
least, and that even if profits
are not as large during the cur
rent year as in the past. very
satisfactory results will be at
tanned. The amount of capital
applications for new enter
prises is hardly appreciated. In

AS compared with the pres

rot likely to kill or injure some

Is it not possible he may set a

Is not a man who viii deliber-
