The Hip


 William Russell closes his engage ment at the Hip with the final show ings today in "The Twins of Suffering Creek A story bordering closely on the melodramatic, it weaves it's plot around the semi modern atmosphere of a mining camp of the west. Gambling still is permitted in the camp, and the leading character, Bill Lark. has so conducted himself as a knight of the green cloth as to earn the reputation of being a gentleman.
 It happens that Jim Pemberton. known as the exact opposite of Lark, engages the latter in a quarrel which eliminates in card game to decide which man shall have the first shot at the other one. Lark loses, and Penn berton gives him three days to live.
 In these three days Lark uncoverS a lot of material for a very decided affront when he next meets Pember- ton, not the least of which is the affair Pemberton has been carrying on with the wife of one of Larks best friends, and which winds up Tn the elopement of the woman and her charmer It is the chase by Lark to right the wrong done his friend, and also to keep up his end of the bargain and appear at the appointed place at the ending of the three days, that gives the nucleus for the very entertaining story which the picture spins.
 William Farnum, appearing in "The 1 Orphan" brings to close with the final showings today his present en- | gagement at the Ramona. 'The Or l phan' brings Farnum to a role of par l ticular strength and one that requires a thorough understanding of character study, and much ability to prevent overdoing the role.
 | As the son of a murdered man, "the orphan" as he styles himself. has taker i to outlawry in order to run to eartf | those responsible for the death of his parent. During his wanderings he has come upon a friendly sheriff whose life i he saves. as well as the life of the niece of the officer Thus he has established l himself firmly in the grace of the sher- 1 if. and when q murder is committed ! and the evidence points toward "tht 1 orphan" as the guilty one, and a lynch l ing is threatened the sheriff prevent. ! the carrying out of the injustice Xvi dence is unearthed that not only leads the officers to the real culprit, bu leads the orphan" to the man h. seeks.
 Of course the action from then or is distinctly intense and thrilling. anC the romantic side of the affair, merge I Itself Into a very appealing love story

FERNDALE

We are sorry to announce the death of Mrs. Helen Rene, who died at her home near Pinnacle Wednesday, July 28. She has been a resident here and a member of the church for fifteen years. She leaves host of relatives and friends to mourn her loss.
 Rev. Partain was unable to fill his ap- pointment at Camp Ground Sunday, as he had no conveyance to bring him out from Pinnacle. He stayed at Mr. Presteg's Sat urday night and although there are three families there the members -ef this church they refused to come out and bring the preacher. So this is to formally announce the church permanently dead and the church property is for sale. It will no doubt be bought promptly by the Little Rock motorists for clubhouse as they already use it for bathhouse and the grounds for picnic and ball ground AL so they have free use of hte Masonic hall for dancing, eating, sleeping and general IowdyIsm. Thus we see the fall of civil zation built on Christianity. Our young people are beginning to invite these giddy headed reckless city joyseekers, and it is nigh tune the parents and solid citizens of this community woke up to conditions and called halt, or their years of moral example and teaching of their sons and daughters will be thrown away. And we may live to bow our heads in disgrace and shame.

Greenville, s. C., Aug. 4 Editor Pulaskian:
 There are few things the Arkan- sas Farm Tourists are learning, among the most important may be found the following:
 l. All rolling lands are terraced before either winter cover crops are planted or fertilizer used.
 2. All lands, including red hills, are broken at least 7 inches deep.
 3. Barnyard manure and com mercial fertilizer are used without stint or limit.
 4. Legumes, such as peas, velvet beans or peanuts are grown on every acre but what is not in cotton.
 5. The same variety and type of cotton is used over the entire section.
 6. The cotton stalk, 30 to 36 in. in height, has plenty of weed to bear l bale per acre. Less than bale per acre, even on red hill land, is

 FARMING TOUR
COUNTY AGENTS SMITH AND SARGENT WRITE INTEREST ING OBSERVATIONS FOR PU- LASKIAN READERS.

Americus, Ga, Aug. 2. Editor Pulaskian:
 I am with the Profitable Farming Bureau on the tour through Georgia, South Carolina ad North Carolina, and after spending such profitable day here in SumE ter County, Ameri- GUS. Ca, the guests of the Chamber of Commerce in being shown the county l feel like giving you a few of the things we have seen for the Pulaskian.
 We arrived in Americus at a. 1n., Monday and since that hour have been the guests of the Chamber of Commerce and they have shown IS many interesting things. By auto (5l to carry partyl we have seen the county of Sumpter and been the guests of two other towns, namely, Leslie and Plains. It was some hon. or, too, for these folks down here were born with hospitality all over them. 1 thought the Christian church could put up some big feeds but it can't compare to the way they feed here. l have never seen as much watermelon as was destroyed at Leslie and Plain by our l52 Ark ansas razorbacks. They had them waiting for Us on ice by the hun- dreds. I only ate six Sargent 7l. l have never seen as good I county as this one to diversity tLeir crops. Sure huff diversify." Cotton, corn, velvet beans, cowpeas, peanuts, pota toes and from four to SIX good milch cows on every farm. In fact, every farm is a perfect picture of prosperity and it is that way all over the county for we have covered most of 1t. They also use immense quan- titles of fertilizer and have greatly increased yields of all crops especi- ally cotton. The principal of fer tiEzer is o-3-3 phosphoric acid, ni- trogen and potash. The roads are wonderful all over the county, level as floor and well kept up. The way they grow velvet beans with their corn also peanuts and cowpeas is wonderful sight to anyone. The soil is thus enriched and herd of cattle fatteed on them. All these things make up a complete cycle of diversification.
 Tonight the Rotary Club gives us a banquet and at l0.30 we depart for Athens, Ca, where we spend to- morrow.

SHORT COURSE
 FOR FARMERS
LITTLE MAUMELLE AND JACK. SONVILLE DEMONSTRATION MAKE SPLENDID SHOWING OLD BOOSTERS COOKED TEN DER AS SPRING CHICKENS.

Friday and Saturday, August c and 7, were busy days at Little Mau- melle. Home demonstrators from Ferndale and Pinnacle met the Little Maumelle club Friday and had an en- tire day making hats and cleaning soiled clothes as we'll as deciding what could be made from old clothes Miss Carl and Mrs. Watkins assisted Miss Allen and made old thigs more interesting than new clothes. Velvet hats will be in vogue this winter so steaming old velvet and making new is very important, then the shape, that Is easy with all the instruction given by Miss Carl. Sugar sacks, flour sacks, the corners of worn sheets, old hose, the young mems worn shirt and in fact all old gar ments had their place and we found with care the children can be clothed to great extent with left overs, and one would think the things NEW.
 Saturday Miss Conant made a Bread Day. with quick light bread and all the light, fancy rolls that one could wish. Miss Allen canned and the Little Maumelle Club showed canned tomatoes, egg plant, butter beans, pimentoes and prize carrots as the result of the days work as we'll as preserved watermelon rind. The ladies worked hard and so much was accomplished that another short course will prove even more helpful.
 BOOSTERS AND MORE BOOSTERS
 Did you ever see a very old roost- CT, and did you ever see a rooster with ~drum sticks as big as turkey legsf Then younger roosters? Jacksonville Short Course had fried spring roosters made from very old birds by visiting the steam pressure cooker Monday morning. There were so many boosters that Miss Al len thought she must see hundred. Boosters were everywhere. Miss Co., nant rushed and so did everyone fov the men were invited to eat fried chicken for dinner, wonderful gravy was made by the wholesale and roosters were the center of attrac- ton. The tables were set roosters were there, dinner over, ''are you sure we had roosters?" said someone They were delicious and certainly disappeared with all the gravg. The afternoon was devoted to bread mak- ing ard the disappearance Of light rolls, pan after pan, was as rapid as the mon performance.
 T,.,sday found Mss Latkil of tnc Pulaski County Health Association with Miss Allen;a great many school districts were represented so Miss Latkin had an intensely inter- esting audience, She gave many speeches between the canning opera tions and old clothes making, every thing was worth while and the Club was quite satisfied with the work done especially so when they could send dinner to the judges Tuesday and thereby clear more money for their carpet fund. Miss Carl was sick so Jacksonville hopes to have her an entire day with Miss Allen and do extra work in September when we know more about the styles.
 Mrs. W. Nothwang will represent Little Maumelle at the Short Course at Fayetteville and Mrs. Blodgett will represent the Jacksonville Club.
