NUMBER ss.

Little Rock, Nov 2S.-The Rev. HE. Trimble of Pine Bluff, pastor of the Lakeside Methodist church, said at the workers luncheon at the Y. M. c. A yesterday that he had worked with the association as army chaplain, and in college and city associations, and ne has never yet seen loafer in the as sociation work. He said he is thor- oughly in favor of what the Little Rock association is trying to do.
 We simply cannot allow an insti- ttion like the r. M c. A. to suffer for lack of funds,'' said Mir. Trimble. ''The test of a community is not it's wealth, but what it does with its wealth. The Y. M. c. A. must i've, for it is the heading up of the variuos forms of religious activity in the com munity. There is no higher concept being carried out than the idea of this institution, the Young Mems Christian Association, the association ol yOuHS HIGH III CnIlstidH 1tilOWSHIR and service"
 641 Subscriptions.
 "The Board of Directors of the local association does not feel at all dis couraged as to the final outcome of the campaign to raise $5O,O00," said s. A. Ackley, general secretary of the assoc iation. While the amount raised to- date is only something over $14.000, there have been only 641 subscriptions made this year, compared with about 1000 last year, when we raised more than $20, 900 and 75 per cent of these subscriptions are new. We have had very small per cent of those who have been seen refuse to give anything. These facts simply mean that the team have not solicited funds from sufficient people to get the money needed. Part of this has been due to the holiday in tervening. By giving the teams until Tuesday, however, to finish the cam paign, we expect to reach our goal"

GOOD CITIZENSHIP WEEK
 OPENS NEXT WEEK
Programs in Schools During Week by
 Teachers Speaking Campaign at End of Week.

Good Citizenship Week, which is to be obs erved throughout the state, be- ginning next Monday, December 9th, and ending on Sunday, December 18th, will be observed over Little River county in her schools and churches. It is arranged that in the schools during the week morning programs on the subjects be c;.lried out. Then on Fri day ni-ht and Sunday at the hours stated in the program speakers will visit the various places and deliver ad- dresses. Conty Supt. Wheelis has ad- dressed letter to the teachers of the various schools in which he explains just what is expected of them. The letter, which we quote, is more explan- itory The letter follows:
 "The week of December 9th to 18th is Good Citizenship Week in Arkansas. am sending you some leaflets on this subject which will explain themselves. I would suggest that you take this up each morning at your chapel exercises and discuss it for twenty or thirty min- utes and on Friday night have an "open forum" for the discussion of this topic with some good speaker for the occas- sion.
 This is very worthy cause and a cause in which, we as teachers, should take very active interest. The teach CT is in a position to take the lead in this kind of movement for they come in contact with the people more than any other person. The best way to reach the people in any community is through the schools. We should strive to make the school a community cen ter where the people can meet and discuss all matters of vital interest to the community. In this way we will be better able to reach the parents and succeed in getting them interested in school and community work. can think of no greater work than for q person to go ipto 9 community. as a teacher, and build up . good school and make it the social and intellectual center of that community The great est bulwark of the great republic of ours is the school system. Ana our schools depend upon the teachers.

PRESSING NEED OF
CITY FOR HOUSES
A. D. Warner Says du Pont Chemi-
cal Co. Proposition Would Afford
Only Temporary Relief.

The Chamber of Commerce has not
given any thought to the offer OF portable
houses by the du Pont Chemical Company
according to A. ID. Warner, president of
that body. MIR. Warner said that the
need for adequate housing facilities in or
about Wilmington would certainly justify
any wealthy person or group OF per-
sons in considering very carefully the
practicabiity of utilizing the offer OF the
du Pont Company, rs temporary make
shift.
MIR. Warmers viewpoint is that the
proposed plan is merely makeshift
proposition, giving only temporary re-
lief
What Wilmington needs is 1000
houses" declared Mr.. Warner. The re-
turn on the investment, however, does
not interest capital In tying up their
money In real estate, as renting homes,
he said, does not give n fair return or
satisfactory yield on the capital invested.
"a group of those willing to become
home-owners must organize and there
must be a compact understanding be-
tween all parties at interest. Get l,uoo
prospective home-owners, JOIN them by
some understanding and have them
deposit 20 per cent of the cost at once
L hen secure otner interests SUCH as ituoi ,
banking institutions and private capital
10 get back of the proposition and then
put the plan over" Is the idea expressed
by the president of the Chamber OF Com
merce.
Mr.. Warner cited one housing project
in the city which the Chamber of Com
merce heartily approved. That was the
Union Park Gardens housing project.
That project Was favored, he said, because
it WAS of a permanent character and
not a temporary relief. He said the Cham
her of Commerce, if they get back Of
snvthing, will get back of something indie
ative of a permanent nature.
Another man prominently identified
with local building took the same view as
Mr.. Warner about the offer of the du Pont
Chemical Company. That was that the
relief obtainable would be of temporary
nature and for that reason it should not
be encouraged. He urged the permanency
ideas preferable to the temporary idea.
The buildings of the du Pont Chemical
Company, he said, would not return q
fair profit to their owners as il is thought
the buildings are not of permanent
nature.

LOW RANGE EATEN OUT BY
BRONkS SAYS STOCkMEN

why complain about the low
range being eaten out ?" said a prom
lnent ranchman 70 News Champion the
other day when most Of our stock
men are keeping from ten to forty
head Of perfectly useless bronks about
tn" place, that eat up the rango.
There are very few ranchmen who are
not keeping from 20 to % head of AM o.
mails in excess of requirements Of
haying. These invariably pasture the
summer thru on the low range that
Is becoming so valuable for spring and
fall cattle use. Most of this stock is
yaluelcss for any purpose, but We
have just driftcd along in the old day
style, when It costs next to nothing TO
carry a bronx and he might come in
handy" We now carefully work our
cattle back on the high ranges, pay
ing constantly increasing grazing
tax for them and leave the valuable
low range TO be eaten up by bunches
Of horses which are worthless.
With the perfection of the tractor
it will be possible TO still further re
uce our herds Of horses, from the
number actually required for haying
operations. Then we can save a
large part of this grass for beef"

SPECIALIST ADVISES USE OF
RUSSIAN SUNFLOWER SILAGE
Shows Where the Sunhower Saved the
Day for Farmers After Corn Had
Failed

One of the strongest advocates of
Russian sunflowers for silage is r.
W. Clark, extension specialist of the
Colorado Agricultural College. He re-
lates the following story:
4In 1918 DR.. Griffith Of Montrose,
Colorado had considerable trouble in
getting a stand Of corn on account of
conditions over which he had no con-
troll. After the middle or fore part oof
July he planted Russian sunlowers
and harvested yield Of twenty tons
per acre. The frost injured the crop
some but it made excellent silage.
David Halls Of Mancos had the
same experience in 1919. This speaks
well for Russian sunfiowers as a silage
crop"

LARkSPUR POISONING
ON THE RANGE
Ben II. King in Montrose Press

ben II. hIng IN Montrose Press
/. The Larkspur which grows in
abundance on all the mountain ranges
of the Western States causes greater
loss of cattle than any other poison
GUS plants except the iocoes.
2. Horses and sheep are not injur-
ed by grazing on larkspur areas.
3. Most of the losses occur early
in the season, but in areas where the
snow remains late, cases may occur
late in the summer or even in the fall.
4. Poisoning may be prevented
largely by keeping cattle away from
the poison areas until the plant has
matured; this may be done by the use
OF drift fences" or riders.
5. Larkspur may be eradicated
successfully in places where it grows
in masses and into which cattle are
likely 10 drift. In eradicating, from
six to eight inches of the root should
be removed and the cattle prevented
from eating the dried plant.

STOCkGROWERS ASK FOR
STATE LAND CONTROL
Sentiment Indicated For Public
Domain Transfer
Public
Record Stockman:-

Early replies to the questionnaire
of the Colorado Stock Growers Asso-
citation sounding the attitude of the
membership of that organization re-
gardlng the proposal to transfer re-
naming public lands to the forest
service and also as to state control Of
public lands indicates the prevalence
of opinion that the remaining lands
of the public domain should be turn
cd over to the state for ownership and
administration.
The Stockgrowers' board of control
has requested the membership of the
association to signify whether they
favor the resolution passed at the
convention of the American National
Stockgrowers' association at Spokane,
favoring the transfer of public lands
to the forest service and also TO give
expression concerning state owner
ship.
The returns up to the present are
not extensive but these association
and individual members who have fill
ed their replies indicate usually an at
titude in favor of the state ownership
proposition. AS to transferring the
lands to the forest service opinions
are about equally expressed for and
against the Spokane resolution.
Secretary Castle of the Colorado
Stockgrowers' association this week is
sending to all local association mem-
bers resolution expressing disapprov-
al of the move in congress to increase
grazing fees on forest reserves and
requesting action on the same that
the association may have material to
file at Washington in opposition to
further attempts to increase fees.
The agriculture appropriation bill for
the coming fiscal year will be passed
without the provision which congress
men from the cornbelt region attempt
ed to insert for this purpose.

EDUCATING FARMERS BRINGS
II GREATER RETURNS THAN
EDUCATION IN OTHER URSUITS
Fort Morgan Herald

Fort Morgan Herald
A Morgan county farmer makes the
remark that education is needed as
much in farming as in any other bust
ness. He is right. There is no other
occupation where the work and in
terests are 30 varied as in the bust
ness Of farming. He has TO do with
everything from production to mar
kctIng. lie raises a variety of crops
for which special information is re
quirod for each crop. He raises and
feeds live stock for which different
rations of feed are necessary. The
field Of study between the raising of
crops or growing livestock and the
marketing TO the best advantages is
unlimited.
The government is eNpending tire
mcndous sums for agricultural devel-
opment. There is a special depart
ment for agriculture in the cabinet
Of the national executive. Specialists
and experts in all branches of agri-
culture are employed throughout the
country. Agricultural colleges are as
numerous as any other class of col
lege. There are state department of
agriculture. There is provision for
county departments Of agriculture.
Agriculture is the most far reaching
of all industries. 1t is the vocation
on which the world lives. If any vo-
| cation should be developed to the linn
it, agriculture should. II any branch
Of industry has a claim on public
funds, this industry should.
Every other industry is based strict
ly on the dollar and the hour, from
the standpoint of labor. The farmer
can't afford to limit his hours and he
does lot of labor without compensa-
ton. The whole basis Of the econo-
my of the country would have to be
remade if the farmer went on the
basis of other industries in labor
and compensation.
1t is true that education is necessary
for the farmer along other lines of
industry. There is probably less
waste in money thus expended than
in any other direction. There are
probably larger returns from money
expended in this way than in any
other. This is a line of education
that ought to be encouraged and sup
ported to the limit.

PREVENT STINKING SMUT

This - the message the cereal speci-
Olists in the United States Department
Of Agriculture 10 spring wheat grow
ers IN the Northwest, where sinking
smut or bunt Of wheat Is prevalent
and annually causes great losses
Sinking smut Of wheat may be pre-
vented readily by treating the seed

follows:
Prepare q solution Of formaldehyde,
