WILSON'S REPLY
SENT TO LONDON
a
Unequiyocal Statement Of U. S.
Position on kdriatic Question
Made BY President.
WASHINGTON PLEASED
Believed at Capital That Note VIII
Remove Matter From Araumenta-
tative Stage-contents Not
Made Public.

Washington, - President Wilson's
reply to the Entente powers on the
Adriatic question has gone forward.
| State department officials still refused
TO discuss the contents OF the docu-
ment, but a feeling OF satisfaction was
noticeable in administration circles
that Mr.. Wilson had made an unequi-
vocal statement of the American gov
eminent position.
While further exchanges on the SUBJ
ject are expected, II is believed that
with the delivery OF the Presidents
note by Ambassador Davis at London,
the question will have been removed
from the a~rgumentative stage.
Although the premiers have for
warded to ~Jugo-Slavia in the form OF
an ultimatum the settlement arrived
at without the participation of the
United States, 1t is said they have not
closed the way to a return to the Paris
agreement of December 9, u which
the United States was a party. In
the general belief here they have not
overlooked suggesting tina. the Amer
lean government point the way to the
carrying out of an agreement which
Italy holds to he unacceptable.
Officials here do not regard the stu
alton as at all acute, nor do they be-
lieve that a condition will arise from
the exchanges in which the United
States will have to consider whether
it car become a party to the treaty of
Versailles. The Allied answer to the
President seems to have clarified the
atmosphere, certainly TO this extent
II was settled that the exchanges
will not be made public, at least by
the American government, until after
the Presidents note has been deiiv.
cred TO the Allies. Whether they will
be given out then will depend on the
wishes of the British, French and
Italian governments. So far as the
United States is concerned there is no
desire to withhold the notes.

Shall Chaos or Reconstruction
in Europe Follow the Great
World War?
GREAT NEED IS PRODUCTION
Men Must Be Given inducement to
Work and Guaranteed Fair Deal
ing in the Distribution of
the Result.
Article VII.
BY A

The world lives by two kinds of
work, the work on the soil and the la
Dor spent in making things. In this
way we get the things we eat aud
wear. We have eaten up our surplus.
The worlds reserve is gone. We are
literally living from hand to mouth. To
overcome the food shortage we must
put every inch of available ground into
production. Only by doing this can we
live and gradually get back the sur
plus which stood as u protection
against crop failures.
Production is not automatic, II Is the
work of man. There is not anything
complex about 1t. You can't use
magic. To grow things men must
pillow and gather. The will to work
Is u greatest need. The land is
available. God furnishes the sunshine
and the rain. To get the plows, trac-
tors and farm tools we must look to
the industrial arm of life. Here again
Is the call for men. We are short of
man power. Men were killed and

work that would have been done by
those who did not come back. In
their present frame of mind they do
not will TO work, at least under the
old conditions obtaining before the
war. 1t is necessary to furnish them
with an inducement to work. There
was little Involvement for men TO work
before the a The discontinued are
not kicking at work. Their objection
goes to the unfairness shown in dis
tributing the result. 1t isn't any Sc
cret. They are shouting Ii from the
~housetops OF Europe. they demand a
larger share Of the things they pro-
duce, or they refuse to work. There is
a good deal of human nature In it, too.
1t is only human nature to think of
self. There isn't anything unnatural
In the workingman looking for reward.
Willingness to work Is largely based
on the thought of working for oneself.
Five things are necessary to start
and keep production going. In other
words, TO get the clothes, shoes.

Productions First Need.

First, We must have plants. and !
use the word in the most general
sense. These plants must be equipped
with machinery and tools, they must
be ready for work.
Second, a plant Is useless and
stands idle unless we provide raw ma
terial. the thing furnished by nature
that mar and machine work into the
finished product.
Third, We must have coal. Coal runs
the machine and keeps warm the home
of the man who runs the machine. The
helplessness of the world without coal
is brought home TO me while am writ
ing these articles. The miners have
left the pit. The government, through
the courts, has tried to force them
back. The effort Is a failure. The
streets are dark at night. The houses
are cold. Business is crying out
against necessary restrictions imposed
because of the coal shortage, realize
as ! never have before how dependent
we are on the men who pick and dig
the coal. All of the intelligence and
culture, the courts. the gold, are but
symbols of power. When the coal
miners folded their hands and set their
teeth things stopped.
Fourth, transportation is necessary

ering of raw material and The distribn-

GOOD QUALITY HOGS DEMAND
 BEST PRICE

Sale of hogs sold in cooperative shipment from Cle5urne County Dec. 1, illustrates the difference in value due to the quality of the animals. The prices of hogs in this shipment ranged from S7.0O to S10.30 per hundred weight for animals with little differ ence in average weights. The man with the poorer hogs accompanied the shipment to market and expressed himself to the commission man as be- ing we'll satisfied. The commission man wrote to the county agent, Steele Kennedy, saying, I feel certain that your man is convinced on the score of producing good hogs, the difference in the average per head net on his hogs
 and the better animals requiring no
 further argument.
 "One of the chief advantages ob- .tained from cooperative shipments is that all animals are sold according to quality the better animals com kmanding the best prices, says F. Roy Reid, live stock marketing agent of the Agricultural Extension Division University of Arkansas. It Is easy to convince one who has shipped poor hogs to market that such animals do not pay when he sees the better ami mals selling for an increase of more than $3 per hundred weight over the price of the poor ones. Such dem-
 onstration is not made with sales on the local markts, since all hogs are usually bought for one price, the man with the poor quality hogs receiving
 the same price as the man with hogs
 of geod quality.
 .'The low price of gocl purebred
 hogs at the present time makes this
 a good time for the farmer to invest in pure bred breeding animals which will increase the meat making quality of the hogs growing for market and thereby cause them to command
 higher prices"

ELECTRICITY AND THE MAN
 HOUR"

It used to take two men or man and a boy to operate flaming mill, one to feed the grain into the mill and one to turn the crank. In the old days before "man hour" was matter of interest to the farmer this was not considered matter of very great im- portance. But with application of business efficiency principles to the new business of farming the modern farmer is making an effort to see that every hour of labor produces just as much as possible. For this reason he welcomes any means of enabling one man to do the work which used to re- quire two. The flaming mill is mere ly one example of an old-fashioned two man job. Others that might be mestioned are the corn sheller, the grindstone and the horse clipper.
 Today nearly all of these two man jobs can be performed by one man. This has been accomplished by substi- tuting a small electric motor for the man who formerly turned the crank. These motors are made either to be att tached permanently to the machine in question, if it is one which is used fre- quently, or to be moved about from one machine to another where the machine is used only occasionally.
 For the latter kind of use the motor is mounted on a small three legged stand and is equipped with a pulley having several grooves of different diameter. The old hand crank is re-

BUSINESS INTERESTS AROUSED OVER THE COTTON SIT
 LAYTON

The wholesale and retail business
 interests of Little Rock and the state
 as well as the banking and agricultu-
 ral interests, have become thorough
 ly aroused to the fact that we are
 confronted by a most serious sltua-
 tion as a result of the slump in the
 price of cotton. Millions of dollars
 have been lost in few days since
 the price declined from the high lev
 el following the war to less than 15c
 which now prevails. Being reduced Ito a point below the actual cost of
 production the farmer faced the difficulty of being unable to dispose
 of his product at profit, and there
 by being unable to pay the merchant and the merchant finds 1t difficult to
 meet his obligations at the bank. So all classes are directly affected.
 When this fact was driven home in the minds and experience of Lit tie Rock Business men, they set about to discover remedy for the ills which beset us. It was agreed that cotton has not been handled in busi- ness-like manner and that co-opera- tive mal keting through an organi- zation of growers is one of the most feasible solutions of lthe problem. Having arrived at this point, 1t was soon discovred that the Arkansas Di- vision of the American Cotton As sociation has for the past year been l laboring assiduously along these lines l The buiness men therefore, led by w. A. O'Ieary of the O'leary Pro- duce Company, called a conference of ] bankers and merchants last Friday evening for discussion of the situa- ton with the officers of the cotton as
 sociation. The plans of the organi-
 zation were thoroughly discussed and i it was agreed by the forty represen- 1 tative business men present that they l offer the best method yet suggested for securing the desired results and saving the farmers of the state from
 ruin. The plans were endorsed, not 1 only by farmers and merchants, but 1 by s. Y West, President of the Lit ] tie Rock Cotton Exchange, who d e. l clared that the work of the associa-
 tion would be of inestimable benefit to all persons in any way interested in the handling of cotton.
 The meeting was preliminary to the statewide conference of mer- 1 chants, cotton men, nnancleTs, anu 1 farmers which have been called by
 Governor Brough for Little Rock,
 January and 6. A committee of
 three was authorizd to arrange for I the association reported satisfacto- 1 plans to this conference. Officers of l thhe association reported satisfacto- " progress in organization through
 the tate, but declaed that they were
 greatly handicapped by a lack of I funds which is more serious at time
 when the farmers themselves are not 1 in a position to finance the work.
 Those who spoke. declared that it
