MALVERN BUSINESS
 MEN COMMENDED

Warm compendation is given the
 business men of Malvern by the
 members of the Executive Committee
 of the Third Arkansas Profitable Farming Campaign, who say that the
 Malvern residents have set an sexam- pie that should be followed by other
 Arkansas cities and towns.
 At meeting of the Malvern bus
 mess men this week, called to organ ize for the campaign, it was decided
 that all business houses in the city
 should close at 2 o'clock every Thurs day afternoon during the summer in order to allow the proprietor and
 employees to devote the afternoon to
 cultivating their gardens. Thirty five of Malvern's leading business
 men signed the agreement.
 c. w. Watson; state agent of the United States Department of Agricul- ture, who is in charge of the head quarters work of the campaign, yes terday said that 56 of the 60 coun- ties in which it was planned to con duct the campaign have been organ ized. It will probably be necessary to reorganize four counties. The fact that the number is so small is considered remarkable and an indica- tion of the enthusiasm with which the people of Arkansas are entering into the campaign.
 E The campaign will be carried on in most of the counties, next Sunday, March IT. Meetings will be held morning, afternoon and night at places convenient for the farmers. A majority of the meetings will be held in the churches. Only six ministers in the entire state have refused to participate in the campaign.-iaze.e
 The action referred to above was taken at meeting held in this city, last week, and which was participat- ed in by almost every business man in Malvern. One account of Tuesday being meatless day, it has been sug- gested that this day be taken in place of Thursday. This matter will be discussed at the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce tonight, and all those interested are urged to att tend the meeting, in order that the matter be settled to the entire satis- faction of all.

CONGRESSMAN TAYLOR..
 FOR REELECTION
Washington, D. C., March 9th, 1918.

" pooi1iiS IoiJ As O., i March 9th, 1918. To the Democratic Voters of the Sixth Congressional District of Ark ansas:
 I am candidate for the Demo- cratic nomination for Congress in the primary election to be held May 28, 1918. My services, think, are need ed in Congress to help care for our boys in cantonments, on the sea, in France, and also to do my duty to- ward such legislation as will aid in the successful prosecution of the war, and thus prevent also the possible in- vasion of our land by a foreign foe, and for this reason I will remain at Imy post of duty and will not return home before the primary is held. This duty I owe you and the nation. My record 1 feel that you we'll know. 1 have steadfastly stood by our great President in all the important measures of his administrations, and especially, in the efforts to prevent this nation from becoming a party to this world struggle. The President did all he could to preserve peace, but at last we were drawn into war. pray God that it will not be long be- fore these world war fires are smoth- cred; that the white winged dove of peace may reappear and that our dear boys may come marching home with victory.
 But, at this time everyone should do all and everything he or she can do to feed and clothe our brave army. I commend the philosophy of the fol lowing lines written by southerner: NAIL THE FLAG TO THE FLOW Mail the flag to the blow
 The soldiers must eat
 While defending the trenches
 Or suffer defeat
 You can help the brave soldier
 At this time of his need
 By increasing your acres
 And planting more seed.
 Nail the flag to the blow
 Your children and wife
 Must be saved from starvation
 While the world is in strife.
 Your duty is plain;
 Your mission is grand; Each man is hero
 Who's tilling the land.
 You say you're too old
 To fight with gun;
 Then work in the fields
 Till the setting of sun.
 And show to the world
 By the sweat of your brow
 That you're serving your country
 With a flag on your plow."
 For the splendid endorsement given me by the people of our district two years ago again tender to them my grateful and sincere thanks; and will deeply appreciate. the support of every person participating in the coming primary.
 Your Obedient Servant,
 SAM M. TAYLOR.
