Little Rock, Ark, April 4th, 1917.-Farm crops are now com handing good prices, along with everything else, and with reas- enable industry and frugality the farmers on the poorest land can do fairly well and escape many Of the hardships in life with which they have heretofore had to contend. This will natu
 rally cause the most of the farm CTS to plant as extensively as they can of the money crops, with the consequent result that other crops and the land itself will be more or less neglected and run down. This will be a misfortune that will rise up and stare you in the face in the fu- ture. Al no time is it more i'm
 portant to raise plenty of fee d crops for all live stock and to farm the land so 1t will be i'm proved. The humble COW pea is

federal authorities, with that hu- mane spirit that actuates all great bodies in the cause of re form, finally realized that it was not necessary to burden the con- vict with a greater humiliation.
 Prison stripes were removed. The federal prisoners were grateful for this dispensation.
 It is not necessary to wear the stripes to show that a man is a prisoner. The bare fact that he occupied eel and is paying the penalty for hls moral derelic- tions should be sufficient. The action of the New York Leglsla- ture is deserving of approval.

Banishing the Stripes

Emulating the example of the state of New York, other states are contemplating reforming the dress in state prisons.
 It was the federal government that first inaugurated this par ticular reform in this country.
 When a mar violates the law he must be punished. This is necessary for the protection of the safety and interests of soci ety, but it is not necessary that be should be humiliated.
 New York was not the first state to decide upon the abolition oI the zebra stripes, but owing to the influence of the Empire State the example will go long way.
 When a man convicted of fel- ony is placed behind the bars of our penitentiaries today he is well guarded, and but few escape.
 There was a time when our prison system was not so effect i've as It is now. It was necessary to make all inmates wear the ze bra atripes for the purpose of identification in the event of e. = cape. The shaved head and the humiliating stripes have alway S been an abuse of just treatment of men who have committed sin and violated the laws of the state
 They pass through the big gate of the dull gray walls with a consciousness that theymust pay. They do pay. and the law exacts this payment, but it is to serve the state and not to be humjliat- ed by tbe state.
 It Is with deep regret that a man looks back on a distant date when prisoners were branded on the arm. When such d prisoner left his prison he was a prisoner in the eyes of the world.
 Let the guilty be punished. This is the demand of the court, but let him be punished in O sane ard sensible way.
 The federal government real ized that yiolators of the federal law must be punished. but the

great soil improver for the South Last year the COW pea was not raised as extensively as heretofore, and the supply of seed is low and the price is high. The COW pea makes good hay, and nearly always brings good price on the market. They should be planted in all the corn, and after wheat and oats. All the spots of poor land on the farm should be planted in COW peas, soy beans or velvet beans. Sow the COW peas broadcast and cut for hay. The hay is good aud the crop helps the land. The soy bean makes a good hay crop and is better for the land than peas. A soy bean crop is hard to save except for hay. The pods pop open when the beans ripen. and many are lost if the crop is pick> ed. but the little beans are hard and will remain on the ground until you can turn the hogs in to eat them after crop gathering time. They make the very best hog feed. Soy beans can be planted between the hills of corn in the row and be "hogged down" after. the corn is gathered, or be. fore. If you wilt feed the hogs on soy beans few days before you turn them in the corn field, there will be little damage done to the corn by pasturing the hogs in the field before gathering the corn They will like the soy beans better than the corn, and will let the corn alone until the beans are gone. They may break down an occasional stalk of corn, but if the soy beans are plenti tiful> they will do but little dam age to the corn.
 The velvet bean is one of the best soil improving crops for Southern farms. It is rich in nj trogen. The velvet beans can be planted in rows with the corn at about the third blowing After

the corn natures and the blades dry up you can go in the field and break and bend over the tops just above the ear. This will not hurt the corn, but gives a good support for the bean vines. and prevent them from breaking down the stalks. The beans should be planted about six feet apart in the row between the corn hills. The vines are very vigorous and make heavy growth. In the Fall the corn can be gathered early and then the stalks and vines be run over with roller or drag, after which a heavy disc harrow can be run over, which will enable you to pow under the whole mass. This will add lots of vegetable matter to the soil, and produce splen- did results in the crop that fol- lows the next year.
 Remember the COW pea, the soy bean and the velvet bean, and try some of each or all this year on your poorest land. They will be blessing to you next year.
