THREE HUSKY FELLOWS READY TO
 HELP OUT IN THE LABOR SHORTAGE

six times this amount of money ex- pended in labor. For example. one ton of good fertilizer will now cost about $500 The plant food in this quantity when applied to three acres of land will give. an increase of about 750 pounds of lint cotton and 1,5O0 pounds of seed. The lint at BOG per pound amounts to s225.00, and the seed at $S0.0e per ton amounts to s60.00, making a total of $2S6.00
 Few business concerns net 50 per cent increase on money invested in labor, but, granting that the farmer will net 100 per cent on his invest ment in labor. and supposing that he pays $1.00 per day for labor, the $46.00 invested in fertilizer, when in vested in labor, would net him $46.0O; whereas, when invested in fertilizer, it gives him a net increase of S239 CO., Thus it can be seen the tremendous advantage of supplementing labor with liberal applications of plant food
 Likewise an improved piece of ma chinery that makes 1t possible to cul- tivate an acre of cotton or corn with perhaps half the Ia DOT ordinarily efn- ployed, and cultivate it better, should be looked to at this time as a source of help in facing the labor shortage

 Little Rock, Jan. 30.- -Morehead Wright, chairman of the War Savings Committee in Arkansas, re- ports sPendid progress being made in the sale of the War Savings Stamps. The state is being we'll or ganized thru the groups of State Bankers Association, and Gdr. Wright reports that most helpful cooperation from source. He is spending a great deal of his time in organization work and is travelling over the state looking after tho county organizations. He reports that many of the places are promptly disposing of all the first supply of stamps and calling for more. Harrison sold 1000 and or dered 10000 more; Rogers, Eureka Springs and Fayetteville are among the towns in Northwest Arkansas that called for an additional sup ply. Judge V. s.

GERMANS IN THIRD
 RAID MURDERED 3
As Is Usual in These Raids the Ma- iority of the Victims Were Women and Young Children
 Ten Injured Last Night.


 London, Jan. 30--In last nights German airplane raid over the English coast, three persons were killed and ten injured.
 Fear is entertained that perhaps six other persons are buried in the ruins of house which was wrecked by one of the bombs dropped.
 In last nights raid, which was the third the Germans have con- ducted in the last two nights. bombs were dropped at various points in Essex.
 There were several aerial en- agreements. and all the British ma chimes which engaged the enemy aircraft returned safely after the raiders had been dispersed.
 Bombs were dropped last night on the suburbs of London. but none of the raiders succeeded in pene- trating to the heart of the city.
 The enemy raiders during the past two nights did not succeed, and. apparently. did not attempt, to bomb any military objectives. They merely attempted to kill civ iIians. and the majority of their victims, as usual, were women and children.
 In the two raids Monday night, in which forty-seven persons were killed and i69 others injured, the casualties were as follows. Killed, men ii, women i7, children i9. total IT. injured. men 93. women g, and children i7, total i69.
 Last nights raid began at 9:30 o'clock and continued until past the midnight hour About fifteen ma chimes participated in last nights raid, and bombs were dropped in the southwestern outlying districts of London. but there was few casual ties in the southwestern portion of London.
 The weather conditions last night were most favorable for an air raid. as was the case on Monday night

Sitting in the case off Emlcn Roosc-
