Despite the efforts of the commits

turkeys until time for it to be handled,
and when prices would be the high

been rushing their crop to the rural
markets. The effect is already notice

BY ALL MEANS GIVE US A FAIR.

Nothing develops the rural sections
Of state so much as a good, we'll
patronized state fair Through them
the county fair is encouraged, and
through the county fair comes the
community fair. The best from the
community fair goes to the county
fair and the county fair winners com
pete at the state fair, and when these
blue ribbon boys get together there
is a real showing of resources of the
state. Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana,
and other bordering states have been
having such fairs for years and they
now possess plants that are worth
hundreds of thousands of dollars, and
attract thousands of people annually
TO their show. Arkansas can display
products, agricultural. mineral, horti-
cultural and in live stock that will
make them all turn green with envy.
Let's have that state fair by all
means. OF course Little Rock is the
logical location for fair, and it is up
to the business men of Little Rock to
make the necessary move.

WE'RE OUT OF THE MUD,
NOW LET'S TAKE ADVAN-
TAGE OF SUNSHINE.

A week of sunshine and cold
weather has worked wonders
with the roads and fields of the
State. The gins are again run
ming, and the planters are bring
ing in nice, dry (if it is slightly
discolored) cotton. This is sell
ing only a few cents a pound UNI
der white cotton, and in a short
time will no doubt be bringing as
much as the white cotton that
was sold before the heavy rains,
in which case the grower has
lost little by procrastination.
Cotton will not stand another
rainy spell, and let's combine to
work on the planter who has not
picked his crop, and help him
work on the pickers until the
crop has been entirely gathered.
The crop is too valuable this
year to lose even a single pound.

the food directed toward Little Rock
next week when the market could be
easily supplied and without holding.
Monday morning little could be heard
at the Little Rock store room but the
gobble of the turkey. Turkeys were
everywhere, and in order to make
room for those coming in on every ex-
press, the killing force had to be turn
ed loose on them By the end of tho
week a car of dressed turkeys will
reach the East from Little Rock, and
the dressing will be continued here
until the Christmas demand is filled.
At this season of the year force
Of at least fifty men and women is at
work dressing turkeys, for fowls Of
this kind cannot be shipped without a
loss Of feight
The turkey crop this year is about
the average, with demand that is
abnormal, for every one is going to
have turkey for the holidays. The
majority of shipments to date show
mostly hens, averaging about eight or
ten pounds dressed, but Mr. Myers
will tell the world that the turkey of
this size, if it be plump and young, is
the very best that can be obtained.
The warning sent out by Mr.. Myers,
advising farmers to hold their chick
ems until January, when prices will
be at least 10 cents pound higher,
seems to have borne fruit for the
shipments of chickens have fallen OIL
materially this week.

DO YOU KNOW
WHAT Alarm is e?
BETTER LOOK OVER CENSUS DE-
PARTMENT'S RULING AND
SAVE TROUBLE
LATER.

Washington, Nov. 19.-What is
farm?
Seems a foolish question to ask.
doesn't it? Almost anyone can tell
off-band just what a farm is and
knows one when he sees it.
But do you happen to know the in.
depreciation Uncle Sam places on TIE
word farm" for census purposes?
No? Then read how this Bureau Of
the Census defines the word:
"A farm for census purposes is all
The land which is directly farmed by
enc person conducting agricultural
operations, either by his own labor or
with the assistance of members of
his household or hired employees"
In further explanation of this def
milton the Census Bureau points out
that the term agricultural operas
tons" is used as a general term re-
ferring to the work of growing crops,
producing other agricultural products
and raising domestic animals, poultry
or bees.
From this definition it will be seen
that farm may consist of a single
tract of land or of numbe1 of sepa-
rate and distinct tracts. And these
eyeral tracts may be held under diff
ferent tenures as, for instance, when
one tract is owned by the farmer and
another is rented by him. Thus if y
man who owns 100 acres rents an adj
ditional ten acres from someone else
and operates both the 100 acres and
the ten acres then his farm" in
Guides both tracts of land comprising
10 acres.
BY the same token when a land
owner has one or more tenants, rent
ers, troopers or managers, each diff
ferent tract of land operated by any
such tenant, renter, cropper or man
ager is considered a separate and dis
tinct farm by the Census Bureau, ant
farms the remaining 8 acres himself,
his farm is the so acres which he op,
crates, not the 100 acres which ne
owns, while the 40-acre tract which
he rents to tenant comprises a, sep
arte farm to be reported i'll the name
Of the tenant
Another question to be determined
such loss to have Parker go to
Jonesboro as secretary and manager
of the Chamber of Commerce of that
thriving city? Our answer is in the
negative, and the more we consider It
the stronger becomes our conviction.
Is it true that Mr.. Parker leaves us
and that we will miss his publicity
matter, always well prepared and
readable. but is not the bond of
friendship made stronger by the plac-
ing of Mr.. Parker at the head of the
commercial organization in commu-
nifty which Little Rock is so vitality
interested in? Parker can ever be
counted on to say the right thing, at
all times, for Little Rock, and in time
Northeast Arkansas will be strictly
Little Rock territory, if we can send
such missionaries forth as Mr.. Par
ker.
We owe Jonesboro much through
the recent acquisition of Virgil Petite.
and surrendering Mr.. Parker to the
kingdom of Craighead will go far
toward evening accounts.
