The armame MT conference has
done its work, and adjourned.
We do not know much of the ac-
complishments of the meeting,
great good will come from it in
our opinion. Any meeting hav-
ing for its object peace among
and between men and nations
will bring benefits. President
Harding in addressing the men,
bers last Monday, and speaking
of what had been done said among
other things: The first DELHI
crate and effective expression of
great powers in the consciousness
of peace, of wars utter futility.
Ii matters little what we ap-
praise as the outstanding accom-
pli4hment. Any one of them
alone would have justified the
conference. But the whole achiev-
fnent has so cleared the atmos-
phere that it will seem like breath
ing the refreshing air of a new
morn of promise" Let>all of US
indulge the hope, whether we be-
long to this or that political par
ty, that wars will come no more,
and that universal peace will be
the established order of the
tiyaac

NOTICE

Here's your opportunity and
logical time to book Lespedeza at
the lowest price of the season, 4
backed by service that's real. 4
Due to following economic con-
ditions facing the Southern cot
tom states, viz: The Agricultural
Department and Cotton Growers
Association have voted to curtail
not less than Is per cent, or
1000, 900 of the acreage to cotton
for 1922 in the boil weevil states
alone. This vast acreage will
have to be rotated into supple =,
menting soil building crops like
Lespedeza pasturage and hay.>
Again IS per cent of the growers
have pooled their seed crops for
a fixed arbitrary price for late1
spring delivery, which promises
to be the steepest on record. AS
you know from past yerrs' ex/
perience the demand for Les
pedeza seeds is already 200 to 300
per cent more than the annual
production, so it behooves all live
jobbers to book their require
ments now, or pay exorbitant1
prices within the next 30 or co.
days. That will preclude their
competing with those dealers who,
contracted ahead at low fall
prices from Independent growers, 4
as am offering you. No Southern
crop known is surer under alf1
climatic conditions; can be adapts
ed to more different rotations on1
poor clay hill or sandy creek bot-1
toms. It's the one sure, sane and
profitable solution of the bolfI
weevil problem. My literature
backed by my 10 years of exper@
fence, shows how to make $150l
an acre back of grain or trucks
with no cultivation the same sea-
son and at the same time greatly
enriching your soil. | offer YOU'D
for ten days acceptance on a
limited quantity choice, tested
Lespedeza seeds at $3.50 bushel
shipment. Book now or pay more. |
Yours very truly,

We feel certain that the readers
of the Independent will be sorry
to learn that the old college build
ing at Purdy burned Monday
night. The fire, which seems to
be of unknown origin, STATED in
the northwest room. No one was
occupying the building, AS all the
occupants had moved to and were
living in the new dormitory.
This removes the oldest build
ing in the county. 1t was built
in 1856, and many great schools
have fourished within its old and
sacred walls. Prof. M. L. Aber-
nathy established a school there
in 1885 which flourished for many
years.
A few years ago the present
principal of the school, Rev. c.
N. Ralston, took charge of the
property and established a splen-
did school, which has since been
taken over by the Presbyterian
church. Last summer a two
story, 24-room dormitory was
built, which is now crowded to
it's full capacity, The school will
continue, as Prof. Ralston has
already secured buildings to &C.
commodate all the pupils.
We are glad to announce that
a modern brick building will be
erected this coming summer and
that this splendid schools one of
the permanent institutions of the
county.
Bro. Ralston is doing a great,
unselfsh and self sacrificingwork
at Purdy, and we congratulate
the county upon his determine
ton to rebuild and continue his
work upon us.

Another movie scandal in the
state of California. A man of
mystery, with lots of names, and
alot of uncovered history, was
found dead in his handsome ap-
artment. He was a controlling
factor in the screen business. and
had left behind him in New York
a wife and child, but until his
death, he was someone else. Now
his name is known, and they are
trying to find out the name of
the woman who was most likely
to have killed him.

farmer who can will bring his
entire family and attend these
meetings all day. There will be
subjects discussed that will be Of
interest to every member of the
family.
Farmers should meet together
more often to discuss the farm
problems. We get new ideas and
know our neighbors better. We
may be of nelp to our neighbor
by exchanging onr ideas. Let's
make these Short Courses real
get together meetings"
Don't forget to bring a full
basket.
The Cotton Committee of the
county request that all orders for
Express cotton seed be in to the
county agents office by Feb. Is.
Quite a number of orders have
already been filed with the COM
mittee but we want to close this
order. Seed will cost about SIZE
per bushel laid down. 1t is in
sisted that every farmer who can
place an order for some of these
seed, even if it is only for enough
to produce one bale of cotton.
We are still working on a fer
tilizer pool. If you are going to
use fertilizer this year we believe
by pooling your orders you will
be able to save a few dollars. If
you want TO buy with the pool,
file your order with the county
agent You can get order blanks
by calling on him.
