ADVISE FARMERS TO
 HOLD THEIR POULTRY

Farmers who sell their chickens now lose about seven cents a pouud," !" says Ed Myers, manager of the Good win & Jean general offices in Little Rock, "and my advice to the mer chants is to tell the farmers they are losing materially by going on the market now There is no market in the North or East at this season of the year The farmer seems to want to rush onto the local market at this season with all his surplus fowls. He soon gluts the home market and it slumps. If he will only hold his chickens until January 1 he will reap the harvest. Ducks, geese and tur- keys are in strong demand now, with the supply short in ducks The farm CTS should sell these, but hold onto their chickens until they can get a better price"

A PROPOSAL IN ECONOMICS.

K F. Alexander, of Single Tax rroclivities, during the past three years has kept the path open through the woods from Englewood Addition to the Pulaski Heights car line. But, finally becoming weary in public spirited well-doing," is said to be wishing that a few families possess ing anatomical deformities would lo- cate in that addition.
 He was recently overheard suggest. ing that four heavyweight knock kneed men, with lightweight bow legged wives, walking daily over the path, would not only tramp the grass and weeds down and keep the path sufficiently wide, but, by the differ ence in their weights and physical de- formities would also maintain the crowned contour that well-drained path should have. This, he aff1rms, would save himself work and the en- tire population of Englewood many a shoe shine.

Friday, November II, 1919.

If there is any of the old-time feeling existing in the country against the city or town, it should forever be removed by the Farm-to-Table Week that is to be observed all over the Unit ed States November 15-22. The object is to have the town folks drive into the country and pur- chase supplies from the farmer. From this a fellowship between the city and country will no doubt come, and the farmer will be able to turn into cash small quantities of produce that he will not be able to market other wise, as it would not pay him to take to market. He thus secures money with which to buy mer- chandise from you. Encourage this week of small buying, even though 1t lessens your trade in small items, for you get the cash in the long run, and it is the cash that you are looking for. Anything that brings the eoun- try and town people together is worth pushing, for it is merely bringing town money to you.

TURKEYS STAND
 UP IN ICE CREAM
THEY ARE NOT ALIVE, HOWEVER, BUT DlMINUTIVE STATUES
 CAST IN METAL MoLDS.

If you want ice cream turkeys for the final course of your Thanksgiv- ing dinner it is a possibility, for the National Ice Cream Company of Lit tie Rock is equipped to give you anything you want in the way of fancy ice creams.
 The National Company has re. gently invested rather heavily in molds and when Halloween came around the packers were busy for two days attending to orders for ice cream pumpkins and as the cream was colored the exact shade of a pumpkin the representation was com. plete. It is now the fad in Little Rock to have the fee cream for we'd ding feasts cast in the shape of a wedding bell The company has also molds for Easter lilies, eggs, pond lilies. puss-in-boots, St. Patrick hats and novelties of many shapes.
 It is possible to make the various shapes of ice cream in any quantity wanted, but it takes day or so to get a large quantity properly iced, as the designs must be frozen much more firmly than other ice cream.
 The National Ice Cream Company has recently issued price list in which over 30 different kinds of ices and creams are listed, and in order to care for the trade by humoring the whims of the most exacting the company accepts even the smallest order from a customer, thereby re- lieving him of the worry. It is as difficult to adjust the machinery for the orders of special creams in quart quantities as it is for those which amount to hundreds of gallons, but the National Company welcomes the small and fastidious orders, as it gives their ice cream expert a chance to spread himself
 Our ice cream supervisor takes great delight in spreading himself" says General Manager Jones, "Iust like chef at a big hotel likes to do things up fancy. Our man is won der in his line, too"

BETTER STREET CAR SERVICE.

Residents on Pulaski Heights are circulating petitions to the City Council demanding better service on the Pulaski Heights car line. The. council will be asked to require more cars to be put on during the rush hours and to stop the practice of turning cars back at the end of the double track. Complaint is also made that during the rush hours several cars in succession pass up patrons waiting on corners downtown, caus- ing them considerable delay in get ting home. Alderman J. P. Streepey said that the aldermen from the Ninth ward have taken this matter up with the Public Utilities Commit tee of the City Council several times He said that some improvement has been made since the agitation be- gan, but that it is not yet satisfac- tory
