Every grower of fruit for home
use or market, wants good fruit.
That's the kind that gives satisfac-
ton and profit. It's only the poor
fruit-such as should never be put
on the market-that goes begging. If
you lay your plans carefully, if you
study and follow the correct methods
of planting, cultivation, marketing,
you will be amply rewarded for your
time, trouble and expense.
Fruit growing is neither difficult
nor expensive, especially when COM
pared with the reward it brings.
Fresh fruit from your own trees or
vines is a luxury you might just as
well enjoy if you have even small
bit of land.
Fruit growing for profit brings
greater rewards than any other crop.
Of course, the man who puts his heart
into it, who studies the right
principles and methods and puts them
into effect, will have the greatest
success. This the commercial grower
must do. In picking out a site for
your orchard get one that is reason
ably free from late spring frosts and
we'll drained, with soil deep enough
to nourish the trees and prevent in
jury by summer drouth and severe
winters. To insure the best growth,
the ground should be put in good con-
dition before the trees are set. If
planting a regular orchard, pillow
deep. You will never again be able
to work the ground Immediately
under the trees. For fall planting
pillow in the late summer; for spring
planting, it is better to pillow in the
fall, unless your orchard is to be on
a hillside that will wash badly. After
blowing, the ground should be
thoroughly worked with disk

harrow, gone over several times with
a spike-tooth harrow, and smoothed
with plank drag.
Choose varieties that are adapted
to your particular requirements as
well as to your soil and climate. Buy
first class trees. There is no enonomy
in buying stock cheap in both price
and quality.
The stock best suited to the
climatic conditions of Pulaski county
are given as help to the prospective

SOCIAL HYGIENE
BOARD AT WORK
GOVERNMENT AGENCY ENGAG-
ED IN MAKING OUR CITIZENS
gift TO LIVE AND FIT TO
WORK"

The work with the delinquent
women in Little Rock was started
when Camp Pike came into existence.
The government wanted to keep the
soldiers aft to fight" and so it was
necessary to protect them from the
immoral women. The government
and State also want its citizens to
be eft to live and fit to work"
Little Rock has had a government
worker for the delinquent women for
ID months. In all she has cared for
425 girls. Of these 258 have been
detained in the venereal ward at the
City Hospital where they have been
under the care of the public health
officer, until they were nominations.
The report from the U. S. inter-
departmental Social Hygiene Board
at Washington states that this ward
has been unusually well run. The
government worker who is now Miss
Mary Bosler, 410 A. O. U. w. build
ing, places these girls with some
relative or friend, if possible. AT
least those who do not belong in
Little Rock are forced to leave the
city.
More constructive work can be
done with many when we have the
woman's reformatory, where they
can be sent and trained to work and
new habits of thought established.
The isolation ward has done good
work, but it is far from the ideal.
It is large room with many win
dows and has been temporarily donat-
ed by the University of Arkansas
Medical School. 1t cannot be used
for this work after June 80, as this
space must be used by the city for
general hospital purposes, and so
other provisions must be made for
our delinquent women. 1t is hoped
that house with some grounds can
be obtained. Here a delinquent girl
could lead more normal life where
she would be taught homework, cook
ing, sewing, gardening and SO forth.
1t will certainly be going backwards
if this work is not continued. 1t will
mean that the delinquent woman
will be fined and sent out to spread
the disease and she will have no OPP
portunity to be educated to better
things.

large bridges to be built, which will
be of steel with reinforced concrete,
and will be wide enough for two
wagons to pass. The contract for the
bridges is to be let later, as will the

it is said, been known to give any
county or state anything but fair
and honest deal.
