last of all the movie, which has grown to it's present proportions from the "nickle theater" beginning. While all of these things came first to city people, it is gratifying to note that they are now nearly as common in the country as in town.
 Telephone lines were extended quite rapidly, until now practically every farm house is in easy commun- ication with neighbors and with the city. A great improvement over the days when it was necessary to hitch up and drive several miles in order to deliver a short m essage or trans act some simple business. Then, a soon as the automobiles had been proven practical, as soon as there was fair chance of expecting it to run several miles without attention and to get along without constant repairs, it was taen up rapidly by the farmer, until today, there is scarcely a farm without it's car and many with trucks and tractors as well.

BE CAREFUL IN SELECTING NEW
 VARIETY SAYS ADDISON

Before buying planting seed for the 1921 cotton crop, it will be wise to investigate the. quality of the variety as we'll as the source of the seed, ad- vises Edgar A. Hodson, agent in cot ton marketing demonstrations of the Agricultural Extension Division, Un- iversity of Arkansas.
 "The present low market price of
 cotton seed is causing large quanti- ties of planting seed to be offered at prices far above it's actual value, ? says Mir. Hodson. .sThe farmer who spends great amount of labor and
 money to develop and produce pure
 varieties of cotton should receive a premium for his labor and improved seed, but the gin run seed frequent | ly offeerd at fancy prices are worth 1 little more for planting than for oil.
 The practice of selecting seed
 within a variety for few years and
 then selling the seed as new variety
 should be discouraged. There are in
 reality very few distinct varieties of
 cotton but they are called by about 800 different names.
 Seed advertised as being from a
 new variety producing unusual yields
 and staple should be investigated
 thoroughly before planting and then should be planted only in very small
 quantities. It is a wise plan to test
 out seed of any variety in a small
 scale before using it for general planting"

THEN AND NOW

Do you remember the days before we had telephones or automobiles, the days before the movie came into existence, the days when electric lights were used only in large public buildings and in homes of the very rich? They're not so far back in the dark ages at that. Scarcely a generation, in fact.
 When the undermining changes did take place, the cities were the first to benefit. First the telephone, which put offices and factories, busi- ness places in general and finally private homes, into easy communica- tion with each other. Then electric lghts, spreading with the telephone from stores and puplic buildings to private residences. Next the auto mobile, beginning with the old "one- lungers' that chugged along the streets and stalled frequently and at tae most inconvsHe.at places. And

Electric lights and the movies were late in coming to the country, but their day has finally arrived. The farm electric plant has been develop ed to the point where it gives com plete electric service,-light every where and plenty of power for pump. ing, milking, separating, washing sweeping and other kinds of farm work. And these same small plants have made possible movie theaters in every country village.
 Electricity is the force which has placed the country even with the convenience.

BETTER TIMES AHEAD

Streakings of light are beginning to be visible even amidst the gloom
 that settled as quickly as a tropic
 night upon the business world through too sudden dehation O
 values. Regardless of the fact that
 unemployment showed an increase during the previous month there have
 been well defined indications during the past couple of weeks of revival of industry. Lower prices are offer
 ing temptations to purchasers and
 in good many lines some activity is being renewed. Apparently it is only question of time until the in dustrial situation in this country will be back again at normal.
 Out of Boston comes the word of a decided change for the better in the shoe and textile industries of New
 England. In the shoe and leather trades operations have been resumed on part time and there is talk that full employment hours will soon be restored. The majority of the shoe factories are operating at 50 per cent of normal, but some are turning out 75 to 80 per cent of capacity. In the textile industries, reports are being received of reopening of mills and time schedules. And what is true of trades is but indicative of what is or soon will be true in other lines of business.
 The matter of readjusting the na- tional appetite to sensible, nourish- ing diet after it had been accustomed to cuisine of luxurious extravaganza is slow and in many cases a disa- greeable process. But it is at work and there is plenty of nutritious provender in sight. It is a matter of getting back to pre-war conditions and the dearest minds in the busi- ness would think that this will be done quickly, One of these experts Manual, predicts that defiation will be fully completed by the middle of summer. We offer his forecast for what it is worth to those who are in- 
 Business firms will be forced to enter into competitive market, al thing which they have not had to do during the last few years. They will i
 have to obtain greater efficiency in production. All this will tend to- ward the real production of wealth in the country, as inbated prices never create real wealth. Speculation will, of course, not be invited as the low demand will not make cornering of any particular market a desirable or profitable thing"
 If the present depression should de- velop greater energy. higher eff ciency and more thrift then, in the long run, can it's results be beneficial Prosperity is not so much a question of the production of wealth as it is the equitable distribution thereof. Many forces are at work on the prob lem and they cannot fail The out look brightens and the pessinists will soon be out of a job.-Commer-
