o. o.--- SOUTHERN MAN PAID HONOR.

General Robert l.. Bullard, named lieutenant general and commander for the American Second Field Army, is native of Alabama. He was born at Greensboro in 1861. He is grad uate of Auburn Polytechnic and later of West Point. He served with dis tinction in the Spanish-American con- flict and during the reconstruction of the Philippines.
 General Bullard's promotion an- nounced the first of the week was re- ceived with much qualification by military officials not only of South ern lineage but of the United States.
 In rank, General Bullard is next to General Pershing, in entire command of the American Expeditionary For ces, overseas.
 No doubt General Bullard's forces of the Second Army for the most part is composed of Southern boys. How ever, of one thing that we can now rest assured of, is that General Bull lard's army will be heard from in future engagements.

Methodist Church Undertakers to Teach Rural Ministers Scientific
 Farming.

New York, Oct. 23.-To help make farming profitable and rural life en- durable for the farmer, his wife, his sons and daughters, the Methodist Episcopal Church has undertaken to spend $5,5O0,0O0 in training rural ministers to teach scientific farming and develope social activity in coun- try districts. The purpose as amour ced by the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension is to keep the farmers on the farm and thus help to win the war.
 Dissatisfaction with country life, it is declared, has caused decrease of rural population in Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, Vermont and New Hampshire. The boys and girls will not stay on the farm when high wages are to be earned nearer the moving picture theatres.
 To combat this, the Methodist church is planning to send many of it's best men to the country churches, lof which it has upward 12,O00. Rural pastors are to have special training in agriculture so as to help farmers with advice. Demonstration farms are to be established where agricultural col leges do not meet the needs.
 Associations of rural ministers to put these plans into effect already have been started in Ohio, West Vir- ginia. Iowa, South Dakota, Pennsyl- vania and Nebraska. Chairs of Rural Sociology to teach how to be happy though living on farm have been es- tablished in theological seminaries and plans are making to start similar courses in colleges.

OPEN UP RIVER TRADE.

Simultaneously with the announc- ing of the stupendous navy program comes the statement from the railroad administration that six steamers and forty steel barges are to be builded for transporting freight, including coal, steel and other products to the gulf. These steamers and barges are to relieve railroad congestion in the middle south from St. Louis on the north to New Orleans on the extreme southern end.
 A little farther to the east the Black Warrior river will serve to carry much coal, coke and iron from the iron and coal fields of Northern Ala bama to the gulf, Mobile being the port to receive these products.
 North and South trunk railways will be relieved considerably in the middle-southern areas by the inau- guration of the river railways.

FARM AGENTS NECESSARY.

The Quorum Court of Arkansas are now in session. The local court met yesterday and will meet again today. One vital question that comes up for transaction is the matter of appropriations.
 In this regard it might be we'll to mention that appropriations for coun- ty agents and Women's County Home Demonstration Agents. The govern ment pays part of these officials sal aries and asks the states and coun- ties to pay the remainder.
 The government agents, both male and female have been wonderful aid in the conservation of food. They have been active in the war activities of every description.
 Liberal appropriations should be made by the local court for these agencies today. It is just as import ant that Arkansas shall furnish it's full quota of food as it is that it shall furnish it's supply of men and money.
 The local Quorum Court without a doubt realize the importance of this great work and make an appropria- tion that will not only met the actual demands but one that will permit a broadening of the work for next year.
 The county agents and demonstra- tion workers of Jefferson county have proven their worth and no measly ap- propriation will be rendered them in lieu of past services performed.

IF KIDNEYS AND
 BLADDER BOTHER
fake Salts to Flush Kidneys and Neutralize Irritating
 Acids.

Kidney and bladder weakness re- suit from uric acid, says a noted au- thority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irrltate and inflame, causing a burn ing, scalding sensation, or setting up der, obliginG you to seek relief two or three times during the night The sufferet is in dpnstant dread, the water Fl ksses son3 etimes with a scalding senSation an is very pro- fuse; again there isl difficulty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness, mot folks call it, because They cant Eonhepl urina- ticn. While it is exkfaHell ennoy- ing and sonfetimes very pail iful, this is really onk of the most sihplaA ail- mcnts to overcome. Get ,a6t four ounces of Jtd Saltsxfrom 6ur phar- macist and ttake a tablespoonful in a glass of twaterE before breakfast, continue thi4 for @oSor three days. This will &eutrl0ize Ehe aAds in the urine so ft no~lQnger is source of irritation tA the 4bladder and urin- aIy organs whfch then act normally again.

 Here you have a pleasant, efferves- cent litthia-water drink, which quick ly relieves bladder trouble Adv.

 Everyone profits by experience and many of the farsighted persons who see things that are to occur years in the future are subject many times to ridicule and sarcasm. But in latter times anything in the bounds of sound judgement and reason are now readily adopted.

PEOPLE VOTE FIRST.

Congress is planning to take a recess of two weeks, beginning Octo- Der 29, until after the November elections.
 It is reported that the senate will attempt to dispose of the eight bill lion dollar revenue bill before ad- tournament for the election. In this it is believed the statement is just a little bit inaccurate. But taking the senate's word for it and if it does dispose of the bill, it is hardly pxob- able that conference committees can dispose of it and make the bill into a law before congress shall adjourn.
 The present outlook for the pas sage of the bill for about the first of December is much more promising than for it's passage next week.
 Taking this viewpoint it is rath- CT certain indication that, so far as congress is concerned, politics are not adjourned.
 The Emergency Agricultural Bill which contains the prohibition Grid er." during the war, will also prob ably go over until after next months elections.
 Members of congress and of the senate who are before their people for reelection will not probably have to explain their votes on either of these measures before their support CTS first cast their preference for a Congressman or Senator.
