MACHINERY MEANS
 MUCH 10 FARMER
JOE LYONS, OF SOUTHWESTERN COMPANY, MAKES STATEMENT CONCERNING USES OF MoD-
 ERIN METHODS ON FARM.

"The object of the recent special Dealers Association was to impress on the farmers of Arkansas the inn portance of adopting modern farm methods so as to get the maximum results of soil cultivation says Joe Lyons, president of the Southwestern Supply Company.
 "1he only way to accomplish this end is by the use of modern machin- cry. In other words, to get from a machine the work of several men and process of farming can be speeded up the production is greater and the great problem before America today is to get the maximum products from the soil
 For instance there is the gang blow which will do the work of from two .. four men in the same time and do it more thoroughly. It is time now to cultivate the soil for winter wheat and oats and it is important that more hlttubicn pC pau tc Stan ioiotbe than heretofore It is not enough to blow and cultivate; the ground should be rolled with a land roller because otherwise the air retained in the air holes is likely to rot the seed. Manure and lime spreaders are important at this season so as to spread the ferti- lizer evenly.
 There is new ground to be cleared and the power drag saws will, with a two-horsepower engine and two men cut from 40 to 50 cords of wood day. The tractor is machine which should be on every sizable farm. It is not only useful to pull blows and cultiyators, but for ditch ing, all farm purposes including thrcshing and silo filling.
 "Other modern machines which should be brought into service are grain drills, sulky and gang blows, two and three row cotton and corn planters, riding cultivators, siios and silo filters, corn grinding mills, pea and bean threshers-in short, the aim of the Hardware Association is to enlist the aid of the newspapers in a statewide campaign to teach the value of farm machinery"

LEATHER SOLE
 ALWAYS LEAKS
AS A HIDE IT WEs POROUS, AND TANNING DOES NOT CLOSE DECOMPOSITION SOLES
 ARE WATERPROOF.

Despite the fact that he is not push ing their sale, and declines to be pioneer in the distribution of the sub stitute for leather soles for shoes, s. A. Norton, of the NortonBerger Shoe Company, has many good things to say about the article. His house car ries the substitute, but is not pushing it, rather permitting the trade to set it's own demands.
 "All sole leather is porous" states MT. Norton. Tt is impossible to get leather that is not. As skin or hide it was porous, and the holes are not closed by the process of tanning. This merely toughens il.
 "Soles which were advertised as being waterproof had the holes filled with something, and usually the wet ting of the shoe, with the bending back and forth of the sole in walking, this became loose and the holes being larger than ever, the foot became wet much quicker than if the old leather had been used.
 "There is but one kind of sole that is waterproof and has lasting quali- ties. It is that made from cotton fabric leather filings or sawdust from underneath machines in which leather has been finished, together with rub Der. These shoes last longer than leather, or should. at least.
 "The manufacturers are now put ting out new shoe, with heavy rub Der sole and dark canvas upper. It has a leather or cotton insole. and the foot has plenty of ventilation. This sells much cheaper than leather and should in time be the most worn of all cheap shoes.
 Heavy shoes for working in tim Der, swamps and general outdoor work, are generally too expensive to be made from leather. We have a

CANE SUGAR MUST
 SEEK BEET LEVEL
FOOD CONTROL BOARD SENDS OUT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT SUGAR MARKET WHICH WILL
 STABILIZE THE PRICES.

Attention is called to the fact that the beet sugar producers of the coun- try have made an agreement with the Food Administration that they will sell beet sugar on a cane basis of 7.25c per pound at sea board points. Un der this agreement the price at New York City, New Orleans, San Fran cisco and other seaboard points of the United States, will be, to the wholesale trade. S7.25 per 10O-lb sack, on and after October 1, and at interior points the price will be that of seaboard point nearest plus the freight charges to such interior points
 This voluntary and patriotic action on the part of beet sugar refiners will place beet sugar on lower basis than cane sugar can be bought for at the present time. and there is no ques- tion but that the few holders of cane sugar who will not be able to sell their product at the low price of the beet sugar will reduce it so as to bring it more nearly to the market Ndlu6 LII Iu0 DSSl SuSol, Wh1S1 10 AN ~ fair figure at the present time.
 Wholesale grocers are required to sell this sugar at reasonable price, They will also have the opportunity, between now and October 1st, to dis pose of the holdings they may now have on hand at higher cost than will be in effect after that date. The policy of the United States Food Ad' ministration contemplates that dis tributers of sugar must not in any way take advantage of market condi- ton, such as shortage of supply, or advances in price, to advance their own price, but must sell on a reason able margin above cost as would be fair and proper in normal times.
 Preparations are being made by the Food Administration to issue regula- tions in reference to the handling Of sugar by distributors, but this notice should suffice at the present time to point out what is expected of them.

 'The manufacture of shoes today is common sense. The manufacturers want to give the people the best for their money. Now if we could only get the people to seeing that a long er shoe, and narrower, will fit their foot with more comfort than the short stubby one, the shoe business would soon be ideal"
 MT. Norton states also that the shoe business is much greater than it

GUN SL|NGS FOR
 AN ENTIRE ARMY
Voss-BARBEE MANUFACTURING COMPANY SECURES CONTRACT FOR AN ADDITIONAL 5o,oo0
 GUN SLINGS..

One hundred and fifty thousand of the guns carried by young men of the United States when they journey to the battle ground of Europe will be equipped with gun slings manufactur- ed by the Voss-Barbee Manufacturing Company of Little Rock.
 Some time ago this concern receiv- ed a contract to supply the govern ment with 100000 gun slings, and a large force of men was engaged to do this class of work. Now the govern ment has found the work turned cut by the local company so satisfactory and the quality so high, that it has asked it to accept an order for an- other 50,000.
 This contract, as it now stands, will keep the portion of the factory that is given over to the manufacture of gun slings busy for at least six months. If the government desires them more quickly than they are now being delivered, night force will be put to work turning out the slings.
 while gun SilnS IS OHly lohB strap, doubled, turned and bound, it must be equipped with brass catches, and finished in first class style. This requires quite little time, and the contract to manufacture 150,000 of them is no small matter.
 Other government contracts are being figured upon by the Voss-Barbee Company, which is also supplying a large amout of material for use by the government at Camp Pike and Fort Logan H. Roots.

 A contract for this amount of oats was awarded last week to the Dar- ragh Company, The oats are to be of a select white variety. and delivery is to be made as called for. The oats have been purchased in the North and will come in bulk, being sacked in Little Rock
