in at the Office of County Demon

interesting facts about the develop

one Of the rich Arkansas Delta coun-

Memphis business men of large
means hold great areas Of land in
that section of Arkansas, according
to Mr.. Critz, paying in some instan-
ces as much as one hundred and
eighty-five dollars an acre for large
tracts, There has been great deal
OF activity in real estate, with the
consequence that land values have
been greatly increased.
Alfalfa is very important crop
in Crittenden County, although a
great deal Of effort is devoted to the
fleecy staple,
Mr.. Critz said that great progress
had been made in drainage during
the period he has been there, but
good roads are just beginning to
come in for their share of the coun-
ty funds.

at Earle, Ark, this year, having ac-
cepted the position as Demonstration

eggs can be shipped on English rail- roads only at the shippers risk.
 The matter is rendered acute by the fact that England and Scotland are hard driven for sufficient eggs now that the great Russian trade has been shut off for several years. Eggs are high priced in England and coRserva- -tion in shipment is necessary.
 Poultrymen realize that the same problem exists in this country. even fl not so acutely as in England. The nations annual bill for broken eggs is enormous. Better packing. of course, would help but to pack eggs carefully enough to run the gauntlet of some of our baggage smashers'' would add greatly to the ultimate cost Greater care in freight and express handling is needed and considerable progress has been made.
 Farmers have long winced at the sight of egg cases. poultry GOODS, and containers of perishable products hurled off and on freight and baggage cars at the way stations and points of destination. The bill for breakage, eventually, comes out of the pockets of producers and consumers. The far mer pays in lower prices received and k the consumer pays in higher prices charged.

elvE rHE EARM A NAME.

Many of the farms of Connecticut have been named, the title taking form from some natural characteristic or from an historical or literary source Advertising value of a distinctive name is a point not to be oyeriookeo by the shrewd farmer.
 Now, it seems, the movement TOT naming farms is becoming natlonWide. The following arguments for naming the home farm were issued under the name of the Kansas State Agrleultu- ,ral College but they are equally ap- plicable in other states.
 ''In town the houses are numbered as the convicts in prison. In the country the home may be known far and wide by some significant name II the farmer but wakens to his oppor- tunity. It will be a guide to the tra- veler; and may go down in history even as the name of Mount vernon has done.
 "The farmer should take no risks of having his farm designated by the public in any such manner as the Old Smith Place."
 Having once chosen name. the farmer should announce it to the world. He may have 1t on his letter heads and envelopes, but he should also have a sign as the business man of the city has.
 "This sign may be in the form of an attractive gateway, built of stone and arched over the entrance with letter ing of stone. Or where farms are electrically lighted it may be built in such way that it may be illuminat- ed at night. But if either of these plans is too elaborate the sign may be painted in bold outstanding letters upon the barn or sign board"

SKUNK PEL1s VALUABLE.

The skunk, one of the most common fur bearers, is found in every state of the Union. Black skunk skins will bring the trapper from $4 to s5.75 this season. The weasel, of one varie- ty or another, is to be found in prac- tically all sections of the country. Formerly the brown belts were con sidered worthless, but with the rise in fur prices brown pelts should net the trapper 20 cents each, while the white pelts will bring from 50 cents to $2.
 An animal not to be found in large numbers, but native to regions north, south, east and west. is the mink When in prime condition it's skin should bring from s to s10 while a skin secured in the south should command $3.5o to $7. Likewise, the raccoon living in the north produces a better pelt than the one living in the south. Prime raccoon skins are worth from $5 to ST each to the trapper.
 Many persons. particularly those of our readers who live Anearer the larger centers of population may be sur prised to learn that foxes still are trapped in this country. Red fox peits, obtainable in widely distributed areas in the northern and western section. should bring from s1o to $25 each this season. while the gray fox will bring from S1.50 to $4.50 a pelt.
