 ''Just too busy pick it out the draWling reply
 And yet they expect the community fairs be representative of then as we'll as their communities!
 Here farmer who had time loaf about all day, criti czng products of his energetic brother who endeavoed the other portions of the county the best foot the community had and yet busy pull few of that actually might have been better
 just wonder he wouldn't have had the energetic farmer rested if he had gone his field and pulled that premium for him. if had been done without protest he would have taken the credit had premiums been received
 Come on boys let's make these fairs Rural Pulaski county stands away behind other counties of the Let's get up with the boys who sing the choir We have good bass voces let's them.
 Just the other day entered the office of wholesale of
 Little Rock found six dozen eggs small containers which had that morning arrived by parcel post The wholesaler informed that he was paying 60 dozen the year round this farmer in order to secure absolutely fresh eggs
 Little Rock filled with people who would be glad to make such an arrangement with Pulaski county farmer Are you Mr. Farmer trading your eggs community have you such connection? We are against your selling according the custom of 1850 if you it, but why sell your merchandise
 e men thereby taking profits which you could you sold direct the consumer? Not only @ but price would be better than that which paid the grocer his usually ed eggs and willing pay premium to get eggs direct from the farm, which he IS sure are fresh

TO DINE AT CARVEL HALL

On the theory that no man can con-
tinue 10 be an anti-suifrag;st or anti
anything after he has eaten a good
dinner the suHragists OF Maryland,
comprising all leagues and parties.
will make another attempt to gain
friends in the Legislature by a dinner
which they VIII give this evening in
honor Of the legislators and their
wives at Carvel Hall
From a social point OF view. the din
ner will probably lie the biggest affair
staged b. the suffragists here this ses-
sion. for the sutragists have many
staunch friends among members OF the
Legislature in addition TO those who
still insist that they have an "open
mind" on the question and whose
capieulation into the suffrage ranks is
expected momcntarily.
The tea given by the suffragists at
their local headquarters last week was
an unusually well-attended affair and
is said 10 have aided materially in
strengthening the suffrage sentiment
in the Legislature. Equally favorable
results are expected from the dinner,
particularly in view OF the encouraging
news coming from other States, indi-
eating the expiration of the present
month 80 States will have ratified the
Federal amendment
The speakers tonight will be Francis
Drum, president OF the Maryland Fed
