1t is just as easy to raise two ears of corn on. the stalk that produced only i one ear where no attention was paid to selecting seed. So much for seed.
 Another important item that we must turn our attention to is the use of fertilizer Ask any farmer who has formed the habit Of using fertilizer and you will be told that unless fer tilizer may be obtained and used on l. : lfDJ .L5t lie Ecu!d abandon farm ing for the reasCn that he has learned from actual experience that he never suffers a loss, regardless of the sea son, during the years that he fertiliz- ed his fields. And the use of fertiliz- CT should not be confined to the poorer lands, as the rich, black lands require proper fertilizer in order to advance the fruiting of the stalk and mature the bolls before the weevil has had an opportunity to destroy the squares. A history of the experience of John J. Hughes published in last Sundays Gazette, the use of fertilizers on his farm in Lee county, Arkansas, will pIl{e bo-h interesting and instructive to the farmer who raises both cotton and corn. This modern farmer also tells of the advantage of breaking land in the fall, alleging that by doing so the heat of the soil is increased at least ten per cent at planting time in the spring.
 Calcium arsenate properly applied is without a doubt an advantage to the cotton farmer Although 1922 has not been a year for a true test in the use of this poison in controlling the boil weevil in Little River county, owing to extreme hot weather with little moisture, still the few farmers who used this method of control, with very few exceptions, will recommend the use of calcium arsenate.
 My motive in writing this letter, MT. Editor, is to get before the farming public the idea that it is extremely important to change the methods of raising cotton under non-boll weevil conditions to a method that will con- bat this pest in the most energetic manner and from all information l have been able to gather this may be successfully done by using:
 1st. Improved seed of an early ma turing variety.
 2nd Liberal use of fertilizer.
 3rd. Application Of calcium arse nate.
 4th. Breaking ground in fall.
 5th. Early planting.
 9th. Flowing often and continuing blowing late in the season, using eX- trenlc care 60 blow very shallow as the stalks mature, so as not to in- iuce the roots
 Yours truly,

 Playing at ldabe!

Coach Wilkerson with the Ashdown School football squad left Friday morning for Idabel, where they eX- pected to play the Idabel High team Friday afternoon A number of the old members of the last year squad reported again this year as well as a lot of new material. Coach Wilkerson believes he has a fast team this year. This out of the state game will not count in the state games whether won or lost, but will be more in the nature of a workout. School athletics when properly regulated creates a school spirit that is hard to estimate, and is reflected in the school work. Men must make their grades to be eligible as members of team. It has had a wonderful influence in our school in holding the older boys to their work and keeping them in school

Buyers con- tinue to come in from Texas, where they report the grade of the cotton very poor this year.
 Ono buyer stated that cotton was coming here from sections heretofore never coming here. A great deal of cotton has come here from Browns town and Ben Lomond countries. Some of the staple was selling Thurs day for 2S cents. It is also said that as much as 60 bales of long staple were hauled here from the streets of Texarkana on account of this being a better market for the highe,. grades. Much is coming in from Miller county.
