use on county roads, it was announc-
ed today.
The machine is a rs horsepower

tors of the kind used in this section.
The advantage of this type of tractor
over the wheeled variety is the fact
that it cannot SO readily pc mired,
and thus can be used when the
ground is wet. 1t also has more trac-
ton per hundred-weight than other

THE 18TH CONSTITU-
TIONAL AMENDMENT

Now that the election is passed,
what anyone may have to say con-
cerning this amendment certainly
cannot, in justice or truth, be
charged to partisan politics.
For some years past I have been
contending that it would not only
he in the interest of justice, but also
good business and public policy for
the State to place it's taxes for schools
so that the lad or lass in the rural
district could have an opportunity
to prepare for meeting the response
bilities of useful, intelligent citizen
ship. The Grammar School needed
improvement and, then, the High
School advantages must be afforded
them. 1t is just as true and just as
important that we heed the wise
statement of some time ago states
man, I'VE must educate, we must
educate or we must perish" AS it
ever was, I have noticed that large
per cent of our leaders. in church
and State, come from our rural dis
tricts. They are among our best
scholars and wisest leaders. There
is much firstclass material on the
chance. True. there are some who
will not profit as they should by
these better opportunities-just as
many in our towns do not-but the
purposeful, capable, must have a
chance, if the public is to be safely
and sanely led.
The church has not always been
wise in her task and responsibility
at this point any more, than has the
State Too frequently her colleges
have been left to struggle along
when fine young men and women
have been waiting for chance to
adequately equip themselves for
usefulness in their particular de-
nominations. and for the larger
Christian work of their day and
time.
For example. ! happen to know
that the Methodist Church here in
Southeast Missouri has been quite
derelict in her duties to her one
Christian college in the whole St,
Louis annual conference. This fail
ure on her part would not be so de-
plorable were 1t not that other great
Christian bodies protestant and
Catholic are guilty of the same neg
lect.
My plea is for our sons and daugh-
| ters to be given a chance for proper
training that they may take their
places in the affairs of church and
State as some of us who are older
drop out,
| would call on all to stand by
their public schools; upon Metho-
rdists to stand by Marvin College, and
| Christians of other denominations
to stand by their colleges, that our
State and nation may go on to ita
high destination.

BIG ACREAGE WILL
BE CUT INTO FARMS
Lumber Company at Blytheville
Will Sell 1900 Acres.


BLYTHEvILLE, ARK, Nov. "a
The forty-acre man has come into
his own in Mississippi County, ac
cording to recent announcement OF
the local management of the Three
States Lumber Company interests
that 1900 acres of new land hith-
erto reserved from the market will
be thrown open at once to settlers
on small tracts at a price much be-
low that now demanded by real es-
tate dealers.
The only stipulation made by the
big lumber concern is that the tracts
be taken by bona fide homesteaders
or those who actually intend that
their purchases shall be farmed in
beneficial crops.
For years the land now to be sold
has been kept off the. market. first,
in order that the merchantable tim
ber might be used, and later. during
the post war reorganization of the
holding company.
The vast acreage soon to be plat
ted and placed on the market eX-
tends from the very gates of Blythe
Vile southwark along the new see
mic highway almost to Burdette sta
tion on the Frisco railroad. Some of
, it, in fact. joins the corporate limits
with but one or two farms between.
1t is the only immense body of land
so near this city which has not
been cut up into farms.
The decision to dispose of this
land means untold added wealth to
the city of Blytheville. In taking
this step the Three States Lumber
Company states that it wishes to CO.
operate in every way with the
growth of Blytheville and surround
ing territory. In fact, it is said
that faith in the city's greatness and
apprecia ton of it's civic strides have
been in large measure responsible
for the step.
Sales will be made only to white
purchasers and the company reserves
the right to inquire closely into the
character and standing of buyers.
The sellers plans include the moving
OF many houses now on its property
at Burdette to the new tract, thus
providing homes in advance for the
new settlers.
The company is to be most liberal
as to terms In assisting worthy men
to buy this land in small farms ami
will cooperate with them to the
fullest, aiding in the purchase OF
proper seed, tools, etc, and main
tanning a bureau for the distribution
of help to the newcomers. 1t is
thought that the land settlement
policy of the Canadian government
will be followed largely in the new
scheme
The big concern is truly philan~
thropic in it's work and plans devel-
opment of it's vast land resources in
this country in Il most efficient
fashion.
Thus does the empire county de-
velop, thus do happiness. content
ment and prosperity come 10 her
people.
