TWO NGRE ROAD Dls-
 gEal.slETS Gs.s ACTIVE
Districts E0. ;tnd N0. $ Take Steps Toward BegiIfiiiBg Construction
 at Barry Bate.

Steps are being taken to get busy al an early date on two mole Toad dis Jricts in this county. 1t is hoped by the commissioners of No. ? and No. Q that all difficulties will be overcome and actual construction work may be- gin at an early date. No. 2 is a road in the Red River bottom leading from the Pine Prairie road to the Cook farm. The grading. we understand was com pleted some months ago, but there was not sufficient funds to complete the road. At the last session of the legis- lature an enabling act was passed, which would allow this district to in crease their assessments for the pur- pose of borrowing more money and completing the work. The reassess- ment has been made and is now on file with the county clerk.
 No 6, or the Ashdown-W Wilton and Mills Ferry Highway, which will con- meet with the Savier- Howard Highway at Little River and will form link of the Bankhead highway, is the other road that will endeavor to build this summer. It is understood that this road has for long time been tied up in the courts, and is now in the United States Supreme Court pending a decis- ion expected in about two years, the point at issue being the amount of the assessment of the Kansas City South ern property IL is believed that the road can be constructed and not be af- fected by an adverse decision on this point later as the only result could be a readiustment Of the assessments, which is frequently done from year to year by the assessors as the occasion warrants. The reassessment of the property in this district has been made and filed The bonds have been sold for a year or two. This is an impor- tant road for this section, and it is hoped that it will soon be gotten under way

ElUGM WORK WILL DE D0NE
 GEs AGRICULTURAL LINES
Will Organize CoiDmunity 0rganiza- tiOns in Many Community Centers:
 For Further Advancement.
Will introduce Growing of
 Registered Dairy Cattle

According to information received we learn that there Will be great ed vancement in all agricultural lines this wear. In conversation with Geo. NJ. Johnston, county agent, Saturday we learned that plans are being per fected by which will place organ,za- tions in every community in the eou-,- ty. that will make farm life more at t.active, more prosperous and more productive.
 Harry F. Kapps, the district agrl- cultural agent, was in Ashdown We'd nesday and accompanied MT. Johnston and Miss Gladys Norwood to Ogden IF the evening where meeting was helu and an organization perfected. The organization is one of the many com mun;ty clubs that will be formed in the county this spring and summer. The club elected officers, which are as follows:
 Roy Budd, president.
 Mrs. Roy BuGd, secretary.
 Mrs. Ogden, treasurer.
 The Ogden meeting was well atten- ded anG the most prominent and popu- lar citizens of the town are co-operae- irg with them and no doubt 1t Will De yeyv successful club. Another mee.- ing will be held at Ogden Friday night at S o'clock in the school auditorium of that city.
 On Thursday night the three agents went to Oak Hill, where they met with the wide-awake citizens of that com munity, where they discussed the or ganization, and the community c1up will be organized there at an early date.
 The idea of. the community club is to promote better farming conditions in the county and to make farm life more attractive. It will develope the plan of cooperative buying and sell ing, whereby the farmers can bunch their needs and buy in carload ship ments at greatly reduced prices.
 Car of Fertilizer.
 The farmers of the country sur rounding Allene only recently received a car shipment of fertilizer, consigned to Will Keener as community leader. The fertilizer was purchased at whole sale prices and saved the farmers sev- eral dollars.
 There has been cars of fertilizer re ceived by various community clubs in the county this season and there will probably be more.
 Dairy Cattle.
 Plans are already made whereby any boy or girl of any club in the county can purchase pure bred calf of some registered dairy stock. Both MT. RIM, Bone, of the First National Bank, and

Planning for Many Advancernents in Agricultural Industries

A. E. Waters, of the Arkansas State Bank, announce that they are ready iii lend money to he club members at ner cent long terms with which to purchase their first calf It is not yet known what the calves will cost but perhaps in the neighborhood of $5o to S75 This plan will be worked the same as the boys and girls pig clubs. The pigs clubs have brought hundreds of pure bred hogs into the county and now as the herds increase, it is esti- mated that there as several thousands of pure bred hogs ill the county tha majority of the stock being Poland Chinas
 The boys and girls pig clubs was organized several years ago, when there was no such thing as pure bred hog in the county and now has developed into several thousands of the best of hogs. And the cattle rais- ing industry will in few years be developed in the same way. It will take only short time.
 Fine Sheep.
 Last year one hundred head of fine Shropshire sheep were distributed over the county and now the report Is that every farmer who purchased the sheen is well pleased with the stock and are looking forward to increasing their herds. One man has decided to purchase at least one thousand head of sheep and place them on his plan tation on Red River Others will also start to raising sheep on large scales as soon as they can make the arrange mentS.
 Chicken Breeders Organize.
 The chicken breeders have also or eanized and will work together IF raising. selling and marketing their pure-bred chickens and eggs. The idea of the organization is co-operatloh which has proven to be the only way to succeed in any thing.
 Tn the olden times a chicken was chicken. It was supposed that one chicken was as good as another, but it has been demonstrated that the fel- low that raises the pure bred chlcken is the one that get the prizes. Many fine reports have been received from the poultry raisers from over the county. and many have kept records of the eggs which their hens have laid. The records of some are wonderful, and has proven to be the only way to raise poultry
 Business Men and Farmers.
 In a few months it is planned to organize the farmers and the business together in an organization by which it will bring them nearer to each other and to cooperate with each other in every way possible. This organization has been tried in various other states, and Little River county is one of the first to launch this move The full o'e tails have not been made known yet, and will not be attempted for several months yet.

its life and lustre and in many in
