Among the business concerns in Little Rock. none is possibly more m- terested in development in the Carlisle country than that known all over Lonoke County, the Watson < Avon Company. who are among the heaviest buyers of milk and cream in the state. Watson X Avon own creameries in several sections, which are reported on a basis that is prov ing very profitable to the dairy farm CTS and which is believed to be aid ing in the movement to secure the importation of more and better cews in order to get great milk supply for the big capitol city of Arkansas.

EAT MORE RICE
 AND LESS WHEAT

Rice came into new favor when potatoes were scarce. Its value as a staple diet was re-established with the American people Since some S00.000 0rientals use rice as prac- tically their only cereal, it's nutri- tional value cannot be doubted.
 It is low in protein and fats, how ever. and is therefore usually served either as a2cereal or desert when cream or milk is added; or as veg etable or casserole dish with fat as a supplementary ingredient.
 In the United States there are distinct rice growing sections; the Carolinas and Georgia, the Missis- sippi section (Louisiana and Arkan- sasl and the prairie lands of South vest Louisiana and southeastern Texas. Our own rice mills have been running to full capacity in order to supply the demand for a million bags for our fighting forces and the allies. This rice ration in the army is slightly over one pound per soldier per month.
 As result of this there has been a temporary shortage in the supply for home consumption, but with a sur plus of 150,00o.ooO pounds there should be an ample amount for domestic purposes and the price of rice promises to be lower very soon.
 Rice four is now coming into the market. Experiments have been made with varying percentages of this mixture and some delicious breads have resulted.

F. G. KEEBEY
One of the Leading Manufacturing g Jewellers and Engravers of Little Rock Specializes in Reli-
 ability of Goods

One reason why so many people are giving their jewelry business to P. G. Keebey in Little Rock is the fact that they have come to realize that in this most important line of merchandise, reliability is the nee essary asset of any store worth patronizing, and the reliability of P. G. Keebey has been tested and found absolutely sound.
 He carries full and complete line of Wrist Watches, each one of which carries a full guarantee, back of which he stands himself in addition to that of the factory.
 As a manufacturing jeweler esre- cially, reliability plays an important part. A customer must trust the jeweler to do the right thing, and when anyone orders something made at Keebey's, he may rest assured it will be made as directed, and not with substitutes. In the manufactur- ing and repair of jewelry, there is no job too large or too small The keebey place is located right in the heart of the business center of Little Rock in the Boyle building facing Fifth Avenue.

due to the use of some good fertilizer by the man getting the best results.
 Arkansas farmers are peculiarly fortunate in this respect, because they can obtain the White Diamond Brand Fertilizers, manufactured by the Arkansas Fertilizer Co.,, of Little Rock These fertilizers are made by soil experts, who are especially well acquainted with the needs of the soil in this state, and correspondence with the firm will enable any farmer to secure just that kind that will best suit his own land.
 Wheat production, rice growing and all other kinds of farm products now bring wonderful prices. and the wise farmer will take advantage of every opportunity to increase his production by the use of fertilizers, whenever he can get them.

THE TERRY DAIRY
One of the Most Progressive Factors In Building Up the Dairy h.
 dustry of Carlisle.

The Terry Dairy Company operates one of the largest Creamery depots right in Carlisle, and this creamery has had much to do with the general prosperity of the dairy interests of this section, for the watchword of the institution has always been greater production. and realizing that this means more money for the farmer and more milk for the dairy, tke management is always alert for any opportunity to advise farmers to milk more and better cows.
 Realizing that the rapidly growing demand for milk in Little Rock has outstripped the production of the country, Mr. Terry is very insistent upon urging in every manner pos sible the importation of more COWS of the Holstein breed. as they are con- sidered to be one Of the most prof itable of breeds for securing a big quantity of milk for minimum of food.
 This company is one of the pioneers in aiding farmers of this section to secure a profitable outlet for their milk and cream. as they have maintained a creamery here for many years, at which the highest of prices compatible with market eondi- tions, were always paid for the dairy products. The cream and milk sup piled the Terry Creamery Is taken to Little Rock where il Is distributed over the city for the consunptioF of the people, as well as used iJ the company's butter making establish ment which has gained a reputation for turning out some of slle best but ter made in the 6l 65l.fted staes.
