LACK OF IMPLEMENT SHEDS COST
ARKANSAS 81, ooo, 900 LAST YEAR.

The lack of implement sheds cost
Arkansas farmers 100000 last year.
and this does not take into considera.
ton the tremendous losses from i'm
proper care to avoid unnecessary wear
and tear. which will add another So
100000
Cheap sheds should be provided and
implements repaired. Remember that
wood rots and metal rusts unless pro-
tected. If it is impossible. however,
to house the machinery, 1t is especially
necessary that liberal coats OF paint
and oil be applied. All working parts
should be CREASED and oiled: the pillow
bottoms, cultivator shovels, disk har-
row blades planter and grain drill
furrow openers should be painted to
prevent rust. A good combination Is
made by mixing axle grease and lu-
bricating oil until thick paint Is OBJ
tanned. A liberal application OF this
material will keep moisture away from
the metal wearing parts and prevent
rust. Where paint has been knocked
from the wood or metal parts. they
should be reprinted wherever posi-
bic. keep the implements off of the
ground in the sheds. A few boards
we'll placed will do the work
A little care during the winter will
certainly save many dollars and
great deal OF trouble next spring.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there Is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all it's stages and that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly influenced by constitutional conditions requires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Medicine is taken in- formally and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and as. sisting nature in doing it's work. The proprietors have so much faith in the curative powers of Halls Catarrh Medicine that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

Notwithstanding the fact that

ANENT CATTLE-DIPPING.

The Hamburg Budget, pub lished It Hamburg, in reporting Judge Buffers charge to the grand jnry of Ashley county, re- gently, has the following as the Judges charge to that body, touching the cattle-dipping law :
 Judge Butler said he had been in formed that systematic dipping of cattle would begin in this county some time next spring. The Court was evidently of the opinion that there might be tendency on the part of some to overlook violations of this law. He said there were fea- lures of it that did not appeal to him, but nevertheless, it must be enforced. If the law says to dip our cattle tail-frst, then tail-first we must dip them. To disregard our laws, made by duly elected rep resentatives of the people, would place us upon plane with the Bol- sheviki of Russia. Disobedience of law is the cause of Russia's plight today The Court said that person. ally he favored the dipping of cattle, and that the objection offered it was mostly by people objeeting to being forced to do anything The best way to avoid being forced to obey the law said the Judge, is to obey it without being made to-.
