is what he said: Il am agin
good roads because they might

am agin good roads because we
amt got any rocks to spare on
them. " Il am agin good roads
because it aint fair for the town
folks and the Rail Road COMPANY
to have to help pay for them
when the country 70 ks would do
nearly all the travelling on them.
| say if the country folks want
good roads let them build them
and pay for them And agin
| am agin roads because them
Sqnires dident select Me to

are agoin to handle it will let

and it won't benefit anv body but
a lot of work hands and some
few others and the travelling
public.
And lastly ! am agin good
roads because the town folks and
the rich country folks and the

have nearly all the tax to pay
and the good roads wouldent
cost the poor folks a single penny
and the poor folks would trave
on them more than any bod,
and that aint fair"

TEST COTTON SEED BEFORE PLANTING

will not produce good crop. It will pay to test all the cotton seed before planting, " says Dean Martin Nelson of the EXperi- ment Station of the University of Arkansas. In the springs of 19l4-l5 the Arkansas EXperl- ment Station tested cotton seed from more than 70 sources each
 season. These seeds were taken from lots of seed that were in- tended to be used for planting. Careful germinatiOn tests show
 ed a variation of from 19 per cent to 98 per cent germlnatlop. Cotton seed seldom show higher than from 75 to 85 per cent ger imitation. but If planted 1t should not show less than 70 per cent. No man wants to plant seed that will not come up. The only way to find out in advance is to test. A simple tester consisting of two plates and an old towel, or other absorbent cloth, is sufficient for any farmer to test his cotton seed. Test your cotton seed. Consult your county agent or write to the Extension Division, College of Agriculture, Fayette- vile for instructions for test ing.
 Is your land sour? Does it lack
 humus or nitrogen?
 If your land is sour or lacks humus or is deficient in nitrogen. you cannot expect the best crop either in the field or in the gar den. Do not buy d great amount of expensive fertilizer and apply it indiscriminately. The cost of fertilizer will greatly reduce your profits and certainly 1t should never be applied unless you are absolutely certain that it is necessary. Before it is too late. why not rush samples of soil to the Soils Laboratory at the College of Agriculture, Fay etteyille. where Prof. D. F. Hun gerford. the soil expert for the University. will examine your soil and give you definite infer nation and tell you whether your soil needs lime. humus, or nitrogen. or all of them. Send Prof. Hungerford a post card to- day and ask him for specific in- formation concering the mailing of samples, etc. A little work may save you a good many dol lars.

Killing at Fair Grounds

Last Saturday night while
most all the people of the city had
retired to rest, the news came
that Zalem Harris had been killed
at a house near the Fair Grounds

Harris, with some other young
men, had gone to the home or
Mrs. Carroll to call on her daugh-
ters. VIM. PoindeXter happened
along, or at least went 10 the
house. and had only been there q
few minutes when the killing
occurred. Harris was shot twice.
once in the head the bullet enter
ing above the eye near the nose.
The other one entered the body
in the back near the hip. Harris
it is said, fell dead never speak
ing a word.
Poindexter came to town and
surrendered to Sheriff Lewis and
was placed in Jail. Circuit Court
convened last Monday and the
Grand Jury, after an investiga-
ton, returned an indictment
against Poindexter charging him
with wiltul murder. His case
will come up for trial Saturday.
