MILK ALMOST PERFECT FOOD
War Taught Us to save Cows and All
Promising Young Stock for Fu-
ture Raising.

The war taught US many new
cows and all promising young stock
for future raising. No food that Is
grown on the farm has as much value
as milk. Butter. cheese and ice cream
are among our most wholesome, most
toothsome and necessary foods. Breed
up and produce more Sell less. Not
a drop of milk need go astray. What
the family does not use the hogs will,
or the chickens, or the calves, and
every one Of these will be profited by
the use Of milk. 1t is an almost per-
feet food.

Discussion of proposed new three-8tory department store, to cost approximately $75,000 and to be erected on Main street, occupied the meeting of the Ad club at the Ho- tel Pines yesterday at noon. k. M. Galbraith was the chief speaker on this subject Such building would command a rental of $500 per month, ne said
 Frank G. Bridges also affirmed that Pine Bluffs crying need is for better buildings on Main street.
 J. E. Boyce of the Cotton Belt bank avowed this is an age of eX- pansion and that business men must look far into the future if they are to realize handsomely on the money they invest.
 Ii. C. Couch, president of the Pine Bluff company, spoke in favor of five-story Main street building, and stated that the city should try to get a wholesale dry goods and shoe store, so that merchants of the Pine Bluff territory would not have to % to Little Rock and St. Louis to make their purchases of stocks.

BOlsheviki Face Bad Situation, Says
 Report to London

London, Jan. 8.--The situation in Russia is about as bad as could be, from an anti -bolshevik point of view, according to British war of flee reports, and there are few signs indicating any likelihood of im- provement. There are two especial ly menacing developments. in the first place, General Denikine's army has been cut in two thru the bol- shevik push to the sea of Azov at Taganrog and it's Hanks have been thrust back, leaving a large gap. ln addition there comes a claim from the bolsheviki of the capture further east of the town of Krasnovodsk, on the Caspian sea. and while this is not confirmed 1t is generally ac- cepted as true.
 The capture of this important port of Kransnovosk, it is pointed out, creates the grave possibility that the Reds may overrun northern Per sia and occupy Teheran, which prob ably would mean the establishment of bolshevik rule in Persia. The taking of Kransnovodsk permits the Reds not only to control large part of the important Krasnovodsk Merv railroad, but gives them free access to the Caspian. There seems little then to prevent them from gaining control of the Caspian from the more or less ineffective volun- teer fleet. Once in possession of this sea, there remains only a small British force and the poorly organized Persian forces between the Reds and the occupation of Teh- ran and northern Persia, thru which would exist the possibility of their obtaining control of the whole coun- try.
 Baku with it's important oil sup plies on the western coast of the Caspian seems likely also to fall in- to bolshevik hands and it's occupa- ten would provide a base for fur ther operations against the rear of Lonikine's hard pressed right wing
 If the bolshevik reports are true, General Denikine has suffered con- siderable disaster for not only have the reds severed all land communi- cation between his left and right wings, but they have captured large quantities of war material incIud- ! ing much that was sent to him by the allies.
 There is little hope held out here that. deprived of these supplies the Denikine forces can hope to make d resistance that would prove effect i've against the overwhelming red army.
