BUSINESS MEN APPROVE PLAN
 FOR THEATRE
Employers Believe Opera House Will Aid in Keeping PeO-
 pie Here.

The meeting at the Chamber of Commerce last night to discuss plans for the establishment of theatre and opera house, was more largely at tended than any meeting thus far. Various business as well as trades organizations were represented, and from the general tenor of the differ ent speeches success will ensue.
 One merchant, in advocating the building of the theatre, brought out the fact the retention of employees is hard matter when there is no amuse- ment offered in a city, citing instan- ces of where number of salesmen had resigned to go elsewhere because of a lack of entertainment. A re- presentative from an industrial plant spoke along the same lines, stating that several employees of his plant had resigned to go to another city which offered something in the way of en- tertainment
 Secretary E. B. Bloom of the Cham Der, who brought the matter up for consideration of the trustees, said last night: We realize that it will take a lot of hard work to put the thing across, but ] believe the people of the town are going to take such an interest that it's establishment will be possible.
 Another meeting will be held next Friday night.

Raise Your Own Garden Products and Keep Farmers of Other States
 From Getting Rich.

Miss Connie J. Bonslagel, Agricultur.
 al Extension Division, University of
 Arkansas
 What do you grow in your garden? Is 1t corn, beans, peas, tomatoes? And In your orchard2 Berries, peaches, pears? What will you be buying this winter in tin cans from your store keeper? Will it be corn, beans, peas, tomatoes, berries, peaches, or pears? What a wasteful way to do! Why worry and work and waste time mak- ing a garden, if the products of it arc to be thrown away: The storekeep. CTS in your county, Mrs. Farmer, sell to you and your neighbor each year several thousand dollars worth of these products in tin. That means that you and your neighbors throw away as many dollars as that. Is this necessary? Are we to go down in history as nation uncured of her wasteful habits? Is the word Con servation" to lose it's meaning just be. cause the food administration is no ilolS. WILL you COlllIHue lO dllO" such a leakage from your county. your state?
 The money that your grocer spends for canned goods goes into Maryland, California and other states. It should be kept in Arkansas, in your county. It should go into your pocket and your daughters pockets You will grow enough fruits and vegetables this season to supply your table and that of at least one family in town. Stop the leak! Supply the demand for canned goods in your county. Write or telephane your county home dem- onstration agent, your nearest source of information on the subject. If you have no county home demonstration agent, write to the state office, 327 Southern Trust Building, Little Rock, Arkansas and get prices for canners and cans from your hardware dealer. The Dixie Gamer Company of Little Rock, Arkansas, will also send you prices upon request.
 Ask your agent how it's done. Can, dry, preserve. brine and pickle all surplus products. Be thrifty! Be good citizen! Conserve!

PREVENT POTATO DECAY BY
 ATTENTION TO STORAGE

By M. R. Ensign, Extension Patholog
 ist University of Arkansas.
 The potato crop will be big one this year. There never was time when something to eat was so valua- ble as now; when so much effort is being spent to produce, and to pre-. vent waste. Yet in these regions of the country where potato storage, eel lars and dugouts are found there Is a woeful lack of appreciation of the first principles of sanitation as ap- piled to potato cellars. says the U. s. Department of Agriculture. Some farmers will give their best energy to the production of the crop, and then when the potatoes can no longer help themselves, store them in a filthy, non-ventilated cellar. and expect them to be fit for market when the time comes. This is expecting too much.
 Dead potatoes carry along the fun gus organisms that cause rots. Where left over from the frosts and decays of last year, they are the best possi- ble source of attack for the new cror. Besides, the cellars become seeded down with these organisms and make it harder and harder to get clean. There is nothing quite so good as cleanliness; nothing quite so bad as filthiness. The dryrot,, caused by fungus. Fusarium trichoteciddes, is found in unclean .cnllars It attacks the new potatoes sthrough bruises and wounds, rots them, and spreads to others. The rotten ones sometimes leak water, and this will begin rotten places in sacks, causing another ex- pense. Some farmers have cellars now that contain piles of sacked po- tatoes, all rotten. sacks destroyed, and together wet foul mass that is rotting the timbers, breeding disease. and menace to the public health. Frosted potatoes were the original cause of this condition. 'e.
 Clean up now, don't wait until ha~. vest. Get rid of every bit of vege- table matter in the cellar: sweep and brush until it is clean. Then give it thorough dose of fungicidee either gas or spray. The easiest, a191 quickest fungicide to apply is formaldehyde gas. For each 1000 cubic feet ot space use ten ounces of formalin and five of potassium permanganate. Pour the formalin over the permanganate in deep container and leave imme, diately, for the gas is given off at once. It may be found, however, tha, the chemicals needed may cost too much. Failing this. Bordeaux mix ture of $50 strength is recommend, ed. This can be applied with hand sprayer, pump. or broom. It is effec- tive too. where we'll put on; and quite inexpensive.
 There is no way of estimating the losses due to neglect of these things. Yet it amounts to good deal more for some regions than others. Tn. loss comes primarily in rotted pota- toes. but also in loss of time in hand ling rotten sacks and poor price on the market. Now is the time to get cellars cleaned out, sweeteEed up and ready for the next crop. It is saw ing all around
