Do You Know the Facts
about Building Costs?

Do you know that lumber and building
materials are down?
Have you talked to us lately about build
ing? Do you know how reasonably you
can make needed repairs, build your new
home, or remodel your old one?
Better get in touch with the situation at
once.
The big building program that was expec-
ted in 1920 failed to develop. The manu-
facturers were caught with too large
stocks, and were forced to turn them
over at almost cost.
We can show you substantial saving in
every item in oru line.
But it's only fair to tell you this condi-
tion may be only temporary. The country
is short more than million homes Our
own city is short mnay homes. When peo-
pie begin to do this long delayed building
demand will increase rapidly, creating an
other shortage ON materials, and prices
will advance again.
If you are planning to build, remodel or
repair, come in and let us give you fig
ures. Then when we show you the actual
savings over last years prices and show
you how favorably present costs compre
with those of 1914, make your own de-
cision.

 Dr. Dormon, on upland, by planting velvet beans, soy beans and Spanish peanuts with corn, produced 812 times as much feed as where corn was planted alone and the velvet beans made the soil richer.
 Dr. Bradford Knapp told me that in the past two years velvet beans had matured at the Experiment Station, Fay etteville. This is in the northern part of the State. They will grow on any land that will produce cotton, and besides yielding we'll, they make the soil richer.

GET MORE OUT OF
 THE CORN CROP

Half the corn crop raised in
 Arkansas does not pay the
 cost of raising. Another crop3 should be raised at the same
 tine with the corn. It is only on rich land that in an average year corn alone will pay.
 John McCrosky, Pulaski
 County, planted velvet beans
 last spring in corn, one bean to
 each stalk of corn. The soil
 was sandy, bottom land that had been in cultivation many years. The yield of corn was 35 bushels an acre. The bans in the pod, taken from
 one vine that covered one corn plant, weighed 2 pounds 10|
 ounces thoroughly dried. With single stalks of corn 4 feet by 4 feet apart each way and such a vine on each stalk, l the yield of beans in the pod would be more than 7,0O0| pounds. The feed value of this quantity of velvet beans in the pod is greater than 100 bushels of corn. The vines and leaves yielded more than |lR tons dry feed an acre. Mir. McCrosky, by planting on bottom land velvet beans with his corn, raised four times as much feed an acre as
 he would if he had planted corn alone, and the velvet
 beans made the soil richer. Dr.. w. B. Dormon, Nash vile, Arkansas, planted corn on thin upland, making the rows 6 feet apart. On part of the field he planted velvet beans in the row with corn and on the other part soy beans in the corn rows. He planted the middles in all the field with Spanish pea nuts. The corn planted on neighbors' fields adjoining Produced 10 bushels an acre.
 The late cultivation given the peanuts made Dormon's corn ueld 12 bushels an acre.
 The crops were gathered in
 'he field by hogs, saving the
 cost of labor. Enough of each crop was gathered to md the yield. The average yyleld per acre was: Corn, IF
 bushels; Spanish peanuts, 20 bushels; soy beans, 25 bushels,
 ana velvet beans, 40 bushels.

 mixed crop on 40 acres had a +sa
