Read This Bulletin

Dr. Bradford Knapp. dean of the College of Agriculture of Arkansas. who is now leading the campaign in Arka nsas for reduced cotton acreage and the growing of food and feed stuffs, has prepared a bulletin on 'The Production of Cotton Under
 Boil Weevil Conditions" The bulletin will be distribute d by the Extension Service of the College of Agriculture. It should be read by every Arkansas cotton grower.
 A valiant fight has been made against increase of cotton acre age in Arkansas this year. but the indications are that in spite ot 1t there will be decided in- crease over last year. If we must have increased acreage then the, farmer should do his best to save the crop he has planted from the boil weevil. Unless he makes special effort and adopts those proven methods that the agricultural experts re- commend. the end of the season will find him with much cotton stalk and little cotton.
 Intelligence and energy will do much combating the boil weevil. Dr. Knapp tells in his bulletin how to use both The information he offers to the farmers of Arkansas should not be overlooked by them. Ark. Gazette.

A Corner In Weeds

For two weeks he was away from home. It rained, and grass of the lawn grew tall and un- kempt. so that 1t was hard to cut when he returned. But if grass grows we'll in wet weather, weeds grow far better. One corner at the back of the lawn was overgrown with big flourish ing weeds. They were so tall and tough that he could not cut them with the lawn mower and planned to use the sickle the next day. But the days were full, and he did not find time. At the end of a week the weeds had grown so high that when he did hack them off with the sickle the stubs that he left were thick and ugly. Now as he looks out of his window he sees that unSightly corner. It will be an evesore throughout the season.
 It Is unusal, you will say, to derive profit from a crop of weeds; but the corner has brought the owner good returns. He has now a higher ideal for the lawn than he ever had be- fore. and. more important than that, he now has a higher ideal for life. for he has seen the analogy between weeds in lawn anfweeds in a life. How many lives have been spoiled by a little corner in which weeds have been allowed to grow. Some bad habit has gained root: some weakness of some sin has never been torn out. The unworthy thing may have Judgement only in your thoughts It may show in your conversation or in busi- ness or politics or in the family life. Perhaps it is little tiral of meannesS or coarsenesS or dishonesty. but what a blot it makes on the soul,
 AS the man thinks of his lawn he knows that he will have no more weed-grown corners. for now he sees that the way to keep them out Is never to let them start. Not only his lawn but his life will be free from them. for he will take Christ for his ideal. l.-Youths Companion

The wisest Raan that ever lived said 1t was the little foxes that spoiled the vines" but most of us are prone to undervalue trifles.
 Little faults, little words. little acts. though ''trifles light as air, make the sum total of character and life.
 Why do we keep on judging the relative importance of things by our own measuring road when we know that it is apt to be inaccurate?
 Perhaps we think that we have 70 little influence that what we say and de Is unimportant. We call It the spirit of humility i; bat Tn reality 1t is the spirit of a stacker, desiring to shift rs- sponsibility to other shoulders. No man can gauge his influence.
 We are too much concerned about the results of our words and actions. which are really be- yond our control; whereas we are absolutely responsible for our motives, to which we give less attention. Yet the motives. makes the man. What is the difference between the surgeon and the assassin? Both use knives on fellow beings. The motive: One cuts to save life, the other to destroy it.
 A farmer s wife had the habit of writing on the box in which she shipped live chickens:
 Please deliver immediately. ]" Her husband laughed at her, saying she was not of enough importance for her words or wishes to have any influence on the sxpressman. She admitted the truth of what he sad. but conteaded that there was a possibility that he might be humane man who would not keep the chickens in confinement longer than was necessary if only he reminded that they were living creatures that could suffer. Anyway" she added, "I want to feel that l have done every thing in my power to make them comfortable.

Do You Want To Go

It has been proposed in France that laws be passed to encourage the immigration of young Amerl- can men. with the idea that France needs youthful males to marry and have children. The proposal includes the paying iof . bonus to such young American men as will give up their Ameri- can and take out French citizen ship and agree to marry French women.
 It IS not a matter for worry, but for laughter. Any American man who would give up his American citizenship for a bonus would be well lost to this country. and but a poor gain for France.
 Some Americans do become naturalized citizens of France, just as Frenchmen become naturalized citizens of this coun- try. America welcomes as citi- Zens good men and true of other countries. as France welcomes an American who wishes to become French.
 But not for bonus.

JUST TWO KINDS
OF RADIO FUSS
Faulty Wiring and Imperfect
Batteries Cause All of
the Trouble, Local
Fans Learn.

Anyone who has listened in on a radio
set during the approach of a thunder
storm has little new to discover in the
way of frying, kissing, bubbling ana
sputtering noises. 1t is only natural
for the listener to wonder where they
all come from.
In general there are just two kinds
Ct radio noises; the ones that can't be
avoided and ones that can. In the first
class are all of the natural ones that
result from electrical disturbances in
the ether, through which all radio
waves travel. 1t must be remembered
that these waves follow the same laws
and behave in exactly the same manner
as the waves created ito order" by man
snade machinery.
The second class Of noises is the re.
suit Of faulty wiring. or in many cases
imperfect or improperly constructed
batteries. Wires must be tight. 1t is
for this reason that so many who build
radio sets take special care to solder all
Joints, even though binding posts pro.
vide seemingly tight grip on the wires.
To Il great many people battery is
just battery, and need only be con.
sidered from a standard of voltage
and amperehour capacity. 1t is true
that these things are Of prime impor.
tance. but there are other features of
construction deserving of far more at
tention than is commonly given them.
An important feature of the "B' OF
24.volt battery for example, is that |,
must be able to hold its charge for long
periods, not only because of economy,
but because electrical leakage from cell
to cell or from positive to negative
points OF any particular cell is distinct.
ly noise producer 1t is to prevent
this disturbing effect that the Willard
Storage Battery company has developed
q form of ''B" battery in which each
cell is a glass jar capped with special
screw top and separated from its neigh
bors by compartment partitions. 1t is
said that the leakage and consequently
the possibility of "B'' battery noises is
practically eliminated
