Entered to postoffice at Ashdown. Arkansas, as second class mail matter

We think that at this time every man is pretty well advised as to what is best to do and what is best not to do the coming year. In fact plans are largely made. The new year has now advanced almost to the knee pants age. Springtimc is coming. It's time for the optomism, not for peGsimism. We have had enough of that stuff to last lile-time. Let's get all our faces to the front and boost each other to our best efforts. The things is conta- gious Your Enthusiasm will create enthusiasm in your neighbor. The road to better things lies! open before us. If there are more bridges to cross we will do like Lincoln, who said he never crossed Fox bridge until he got to it. The way has been opening as we advanced. To the man with a will it will continue to open. See if we are not right. Optimism, faith, pep try these three.

Henry Starr Gradually
 Becoming Weaker Hourly

Harrison, Feb. 21.-Henry Starr, bank bandit, shot through the body here Friday when lie aud three others attempted to rob the Peoples bank, gradually is sinking, and his death is expected within a short time, attend ing physicians oaid tonight He is writhing in pain, and constantly is pleading with physicians for drugs to relieve his suffering.
 After steadfastly refusing to reveal the identities of the three men who were with him when tho raid on the bank was made, Starr today told Sheriff Johnson who the men were and where they might be found. The sher- if tonight said that although the in formation may b. incorrect, he has be- gun working on the clue. Sheriff Johnson refused to make public the information received from Starr.
 Several ministers have visited Starr in his cell at the Boone county jail here. It is said, however the bandit has manifested little interest in re- ligion. He says he realizes he is mor- tally wounded, and that he will die gamely. His wife, mother and son re- main constantly at his bedside.
 Many congratulatory telegrams from persons in various states have been received by w. J. Meyers, former president and a stockholder of the Peoples bank, who outwitted the would-be-robbers by firing at Starr af- ter being forced into the vault.

SOW LESPEDEZA NOW
Agriculturist Advises Sowing the Seed
 This Month.
(By H. M. Cottrell)

(By H. M. CottrelD.
 Little Rock, Feb 19.-I would urge Arkansas farmers, who intend to SOW lespedeza this spring to go out this week and SOW it on the snow.

 The seed sinks into the ground with water from the melting snow and is covered very shallow, at just the right depth to come up quickly as soon as the weather becomes warm enough. There is no expense for narrowing.
