WALTER ELLIOTT, Edito,

Cove. We have oil and gas and all we want Is the cooperation of the land owners to bring capital here to deyel- op our country. Let us be progressive and let capital seek an investment. Polk county is on the boom. Notice the new people who come to Cove. Watch Cove grow.
 1 Mir. and Mrs. sam Brown who lives west of Cove had very sad happening at their home last Monday. Their lit | tie child, 14 months old, awakened early and the mother fed it milk and it went back to sleep, and in short time she returned to see how the child was sleeping and found it dead. This was very strange and sad to see the baby taken away so quickly. The fun erai and burial took place on Wednes- day at the Pleasant Grove Cemetary.
 You will notice in the Arkansas Gazette of last week several men from California who came to Arkansas to investigate the soil and climate as to raising raisins or grapes, the land has got so high there it is almost impossi- ble to buy land to raise grapes and raisins. You will notice by the market reports that raisin crop sold last year for $10 to $20 per ton and now the 1920 crop of raisins have all been sold for $40 per ton. Now these men are in Arkansas perhaps in Polk county to find out If these vineyards will do well here. Talk to Mir Knod of Horatio and others up and down the line of the you that this county grows fine grapes and why not raisins? If this county will produce this fruit what is your land worth here today? Yes $10O and $200 will not buy it in five years. Don't give your land away. get to work i'm prove it. Raise truck fruit and berries. Read the best weekly paper in Aarkan- sas. "The Mena Star" all about the news in Polk county.
 The farmer and business men of Cove held a meeting at the Presbyte- rian church last Thursday night to de- ed Ware House, Sweet Potato Dry <, House and Packing Sheds at Cove. The weather was bad and on that ac- count the crowd was small. But Mir. Kapper of Little Rock gave us fine talk on the advantage of a Bonded Ware House o. l.. Henderson, our county demonstrator was present. Mir. Kapper gave us the necessary instruc- tion how to proceed and soon as we get our license and elect our officers, the stock will be solicited and work will be pushed right away. A good To- cation for these buildings will have to be found But the farmers are very much interested in Bonded Ware House for Cove. so much that one man, good farmer offers to take s.l00o stock in it. several others offer to take Sl00. No trouble to raise $3,000 to 5000 stock at $500 per share. Every farmer should take at least one share and help boost Cove.

COTTON STALK PAPER
Fiber Is Said to Yield an Excellent
 Durable Sheet.

What is thought to be the first pulp mill established anywhere for making paper pulp and paper from cotton stalks is in operation at Greenwood, in Mississippi, says the Sun and New York Herald.
 The fiber of the cotton plant sup plies excellent cellulose for durable papers. The particular fiber in ques- ton is thin walled tube that col lapses in peculiar twisted manner in the beating process, interlaces better than other fibers in the felting pro- cess and holds it's grip tenaciously. It is strong, flexible, durable and light and has double the tensile strength of the stock ordinarily used to make wrapping paper.
 Large quantities of old cotton stalks are delivered at the site of this mill and paid for at the rate oi about $3 a ton. It is said that the mill con- sumes daily 150 tons of stalk, from which is produced 50 tons of valu- able pulp.
 The annual supply of cotton stalks, in the Southern states is about 75,- GOO, ,000 tons. If only quarter of that were utilized it would mean produc- tion of approximately 6,000000 tons of paper year, the value of which would exceed $500, 100000.
