WAR CAMP COMMUNITY
 SERVICE WORK AT TUPELO.

Tupelo, Ark, Feb. 15, 1918. MT. A. T. Hubby, Newport, Ark, Dear Sir and Friend:
 We organized working committee last night and you can count on us fer our full quota of the War Com munity Fund. Decided to work the next four days as we would be able to reach more country people the lat ter part of the week than any other time. Will not make a daily report but hope to be able to have our col- lection up and turn it over to you when you come down Tuesday. Your friend,
 w. N Jones. This is the kind of spirit which ac- Icomplishes things and in the great crisis we are facing it behooves every man to get in the game and stop "doing his bit" and going to "doing his best" We are facing big things today and bigger ones tomorrow will have to be met. We had as we'll be- gin now to prepare ourselves to give not only our money but our time to our country and it's service. We tell our soldier boys our coun- try is worth fighting fort is up to us to prove to those soldier boys that we folks back at home are really worth fighting for.

 If the southern farmer is to do his share in producing foods for man and beast and, at the same time, grow cot ton fibre for the nation, he must either increase his crop acreage, or else grow considerably more per acre than GUS tomary.
 In view of the scarcity and high price of labor at the present time, it seems to be the part of wisdom for farmers generally not. to mate rially increase the crop acreage, but to increase the acre yields.
 Increase Yield Per Acre
 Acre yields can be increased by better preparation of the seed bed, by the use of good seed of varieties adapt ed to the region, by using a more lib eral application of the right kinds of fertilizers and by better cultivation of the growing crops
 While all of these factors influence acre yields, let us call particular at- tention at this time to the kind and amount of fertilizer to be used Prac- tically all of the southern soils are deficient in phosphoric acid, nitrogen and potash and these must be supplied in some form to get the largest yields and biggest farm profits. While the proper use of these materials will in crease the yields per acre and help supply the nations needs, the wise farmer will at the same time strive to get the largest financial returns from their use.if To do this, he must exercise care in buying them as well as in applying them.
 The farmer should understand that plants use fertilizers as foods only af- ter they have been dissolved by the soil water, and that which is not sol uble is not available to the plant. It is to the farmers interest, therefore, to know that the fertilizers he is buy ing are guaranteed to contain stated amount of available plant food.

American-Made Potash
 Good As German Kind

If there is any doubt in the mind of farmer about using fertilizers con taining American-made potash, in the belief that it is not as good as that which was formerly obtained from Ger many, his mind can be set at rest by any chemist or agricultural authority. Any one who knows in what form the potash exists in the American-made product will declare that muriate or sufiate of potash is the same to the plant whether it be obtained from American sources or Germany, and that the plant asks no questions as to where it originated, but feeds on it just the same.

Raise Home Supplies
 And Some To Spare

Store bought" foods and feeds are too high priced for any farmer to pay, even. if he could. find them for sale. The wise southern farmer will get in a crop of corn and velvet beans, pota- toes, vegetables of various kinds, grow a few hogs and poultry and oth- erwise look out for the. needs of his family and his tenants. With all of food products bringing such good prices, the southern farmer should do a patriotic bit if he would raise enough to spare some for the armies while he is raising his cotton crop.

Quick Acting Form.


 For the best results in the cultiva- ton of general field crops, materials carrying phosphoric acid, nitrogen and some potash should be applied. Pot ash is more deficient fn the light and sandy soils than in clay soils. Not less than 150 to 200 pounds of com plete fertilizers per acre should be used and hundreds of farmers find more than this amount to be most profitable. Fertilizers containing these necessary plant foods are generally es- sential for the most profitable produc- ton of all field crops. Since there is such a worldwide need for crops, and since farm products are higher now than ever before, it follows that the farmer who strives to fulfill the na- tion's needs just now by the uge of such plant food as is necessary, SC cures at the same time the largest pos sible financial returns for himself.

Newport business men took long step toward better town the other night when preliminary arrangements were made for a Chamber of Com merce. Every town that acquires in dustries, new businesses and a wider trade territory uses a commercial organization to accomplish this ex- pansion. Newport is not a dead town by any means-in fact, no town without commercial organization has outstripped us-Newport has much to be proud of. But the success attained here without organization is merely suggestion of what will be accomplished with organization. Es- pecially at this time, when there is much war work to do, an organiza tion is needed. It will, of course, cost money to run a Chamber of Commerce, but if every dollar that goes into it is backed by the moral and heahty support of the giver, that dollar will return along with many more with it. This is the experience of other towns. With the Chamber of Commerce Newport should be a town of much greater size in few short years. Don't let the Chamber of Commerce idea die. Keep it alive. Remember this is your town, and never will amount to more than the interest the people pay it.
