 BUNCH HELPS FARM
 DRIVE IN. MISSOURI

County Agent, Leland Bunch, was in Pemiscot County, Missouri and in their Farm Bureau membership drive last week. The membership fee in Missouri is $500 per year and every county organized has from 600 to 1400 members. The state has federation of Farm Btu reaus that bids fair to be a powerful force for the farmer in that state in the near future. Arkansas can and must have such an organization whose sole business is to fight the battles of the farmer, No farmer should neglect to join the Indepen- dence County Farm Bureau.

Grow Your Living and a Cotton Crop

Nineteen twenty vii be the great est year of the great South!
 There will be such wave of busi- ness, of prosperity as has never been dreamed of for the Southern farmer the merchant, the banker
 The day of cotton is at handl No longer will the cotton farmer feed himself out of the scpply mans tin cans and pork barrel entil at the end of the year he owes his whole crop.
 Instead, he will grow better cotton on less acreage, and on the rest of his farm he will raise his own fruit, his own vegetables, his omn meat. AIhen, when his cotton is picked ard baled he will get a good price and will have some surplus money.
 This bank stands for that kind of farming because that kind of farm CTS vii have money to put into the bank at the endsof the year
 The Southern farmer who grows cotton and food and feed is the farm CT who will have a bank account this yeari

REDUCED RAILROAD FARES

Once more we have reduced rail road fares for conventions of various kinds. One of the first to be held in Little Rock to get the benefit of these rates is the thirty second annual state convention of the Arkansas Sunday School Association, which will be held there April 20-22 The railroads have granted rate of one fare and a third on the certificate plan.
 It is announced that trophy will be awarded to the County Association of which there are 42 in the state whose delegates travel the greatest mileage in attending the state Con- vention. This trophy will remain for one year in the possession of the coun- ty winning 1t, The mileage will be determined by multiplying the num- ke1 of delegates from the county by the distance in miles from Little Rock which will make 1t perfectly fair for all counties, whether near or remote.
 County conventions are being held throughout the state beginning this week, and efforts will be made to in daee a large attendance. It is ex- peeted that as a result of the en- thusiasm that will be aroused by these conventions, the state will be thoroughly organized by the time of tEe 1921 convention.
 An unusually attractive program is being prepared for the state con vention, and some of the nations most celebrated Sunday School work CTS will be heard in practical discus sions of the many important problems confronting the Sunday Schools and she churches of the country. Such an array of talent has never before been seen in Arkansas, and Secretary Frank L. James and his associates have been especially fortunate in se- curing such men as H. A. Pearee, NJ. A Honline. Dr. W. E. Chalmers, " C Pearce, Dr. Wm. A. Brown, and such great women leaders as Mrs. Mary Foster Bryner.
