CORINTH
Order from Postmaster General Causes
Much Dissatisfaction Here.

/ Much to the CONSERVATION, ehagrin
and dissatisfaction of the mass Of
! people Of Corinth, they learned on Fri.
day, Dec. %, that through no advice
consent, knowledge or sentiment OF
their own, but by the advice, influence
and Misrepresentation of the facts by
someone who had only their own pri-
yate interests in view, the postmaster
general had been induced 10 issue an
order which depriyes them of their
only means of public conveyance and
the loss of their daily mail from Bos-
ton through the change Of the
scheduled time of the daily stage leay-
ing Bradford for West Corinth upon
the arrival of the train south at l0.07
La m, instead Of upon the arrival Of the
afternoon train north, as in all former
ages.
This change causes all mail from the
south to remain in Bradford until the
next day and all the r, r. ID. mail an
other dav in the Corinth postoflice.
Anything Iisrishablc viii have persisted
before reaching its destination. This
change is great detriment to the
interests Of the people and Of no bcne-
fit whatever.
Very few people, il any viii seek this
as sojourn or place Of recreation dur
ing the summer months, as has been the
custom of many city people in the
past, for their first question is "How
many mails per dayf" When they
learn of this change, they will consider
this town in a state of retrogression,
instead OF progression, which is the
slogan of the present age. Nearly
every town is seeking for its mail to be
brought to it upon the arrival of both
the north and south trains. instead OF
a discontinuance of the main and most
important one.

Mrs Clara M. Holbrook of Wye is ,be first woman school director in pnlaski county. She was elected in snite of a male opponent at special school election held last Saturday at We. near Bigelow, to succeed George A Reding. resigned, as director of inc Highland Special School District.
 We is located in the rural district of the county, not on a railroad. Mrs. Frank H.

The two teachers are Miss Grace Hol- brook, daughter of the new school director. and Miss Ruth Beardsley. However, Mrs. Dodge said, the cit izens will construct a partition in the building.
 It is said the school house site is hardly accessible by automobile, and a committee of Pulaski and Perry county citizens, headed by Fred A. Austin as chairman, called upon County Judge Charles E.

MUST BE FED
 BY FERTILIZERS
ARKANSAS FERTILIZER COM PANY DECLARES THAT SOIL MUST BE BUILT UP TO PRO- DUCE THE MAXIMUM RE. DUCTION IS DEPLORED.

What fertilizers mean to Arkansas agriculture economically IS set out pointedly by Clyde Croft, secretary of the Arkansas Fertilizer Company.
 MT. Croft says that during the re- cent period of business depression the use of fertilizers decreased equal ly with other things but that this abandonment did not represent sav- ing inasmuch as the crops now grow ing will be lessened as result. Mr. Croft also says that the states great est agricultural wealth will be real- ized only when fertilizers are used for all crops, pushing production up to the maximum possible for the acreage planted.
 ''The use of fertilizer in the United States he said, is generally believed to be of recent origin, and this is true as it applies to economical fertiliz- CTS, but the Indians living along the sea shore were fertilizing corn when the Pilgrim Fathers landed in New England. They would place one or two fish in each hill of corn; and today on the eastern coast catching menhaden fish and rendering them into scrap to furnish one element of plant food is very large industry.
 s'The first use of fertilizer was very primitive compared with present methods, and the farmer of today has his fertilizer manufactured for him and instead Of placing fish in each hill of corn, he uses machinery to do the work. He IS also particular about his fertilizer-it it must contain certain amounts of phosphoric acid, nitrogen, and potash, and 1t must be in condition to be distributed easily and economically; 1t should also be thoroughly mixed that each ounce will contain its ratio, for 1t must be remembered that our farmers only use an average of about l50 pounds per acre or one-eighteenth of an ounce to the square foot.
 ''To accomplish this thorough mix ing the manufacturer must use the greatest care. besides the best ma- chinery and appliances, a well equip ped chemical laboratory and factory. Such a plant is to be found at Little Rock, where the famous White Dia- mond' brands of acid phosphate and fertilizers have been made and sold by the Arkansas Fertilizer Company for the past 20 years, during which time the number of their satisfied customers has greatly increased
 s'The past season has shown slump in sales of fertilizer through out the country, about in keeping with the decrease in most all lines. However, this was the time when 1t would have been most profitable to use fertilizers, not only on the cot ton but on all other crops, making them more profitable to raise by reason of increased production per acre and per dollar, thereby reducing to a minimum the one hundred mil lion dollar feed bill which we are now paying, then we shall have greater prosperity in Arkansas, be- cause profitable agriculture is the basis of Arkansas prosperity"

PLEASANT HILL WEST.
ss < < s < ;. x # # < < * < <


 There are many nimble fingers grabbing at the blackberries in this community at the present writing. The farmers are all so busy that they have no time to report any news. And there doesn't seem to be thing doing except chopping cotton, blow ing corn, digging potatoes, canning berries and vegetables, sawmilling, and last but not least is fishing and moonshining. It is reported there are few cases of summer sickness but there Is none very serious.
 The crops are all beginning to look like new money.
 If we would bring business and prosperity up to a normal standard, we should cut out all political squab- bling and cut out all desire to hog and profiteer, and everybody get busy and do their bit and help their neighbors do their bit if it becomes necessary to do so. And we will soon find that we are back on the right track again There are still some folks who are never satisfied, even though they had the whole world. As they would grumble then because they had something they did not know what to do with.
 Some folks want to have a real old time Fourth of July picnic in our burg, but don't know just how that will be. Here's hoping it will be put on. l sometimes think that if we were more thankful for the blessings that are bestowed upon us as we journey through this old world we really would receive many times more than we do, get. However, do we not get plenty, and if we were more thankful and knew how to ap- preciate the blessings we do get we would then see no course to com plain. However, 1t would not be human nature if we could not find something to complain about.
 It seems there are some religious societies that have quit trying to con- vert the sinners to be real Christians, but are just trying to convert the sin ners' coin into the coffers of the so- ciety. We'll, so be 1t, the world will move on just the same. So let us be particular as we journey And don't be in hurry to get there. Though be sure to keep a lookout as
 you go along,
 Just to see that your going is four
 square.
 Don't you worry about what others
 may think about your way. But keep on along your journey four
 square.
 Not particular about the present, so
 you keep the four-square way. And you will find a real welcome
 awaits you over there. As you're making out your ticket to
 the celestial land. It is best to have it made up four
 square,
 Cause the Bible teachers that it is
 the Christ's command, If you would receive a welcome over
 there,
 Then be ready with your ticket for
 the journey over there, As we are likely to get a summons
 any day.
 Oh, be sure 'tis not mistaken, but is
 built on the four-square, So that when you meet Saint Peter
 in the land of endless day He will rejoice to give you welcome
 over there.
 So in all our earthly dealings we
 should always be four-square, Even though we have no thoughts of
 over there,
 And then when our journeys ended
 on this earthly sphere, We will pass on to the Celestial Land
 with our title clear.

 The Community Club met Monday June 27, with seven members present and II absent. Mrs. Elmore pre- sided over the meeting as Mrs. Ram sey was absent. After business meet ing the members talked about ways to raise more money to add to the club house fund. Mrs. Jim Douglas reported 5 names to be added to the guilt from New York City. Mrs. Duva, formerly of Jacksonville, but now residing in New York, and her family, sent a donation to be added to the club house fund, which was appreciated very much. This kind of liberality shows that Mir. and Mrs. Duva and family are still thinking of Jacksonville, although many miles away.
 Our club will not hold meeting Monday, July 4th, but a grand sur prise is in store for July 1lth. A wonderful program is to be rendered. Everyone bring embroidery hoops, needle and thimble as we will em- broider names on the quilt.
