CONDITION OF WHEAT
CROP RANGES FROM
GOOD TO ONLY FAIR
DIV AssocIated Press,

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The CON
dition of the wheat crop during the
first half of February ranged from
generally good in the eastern sec
ton of the country to "only fair in
several of the middle western states,
according to a report today by the de-
partment of agriculture. Conditions
lin the far western states were said to
be favorable. The state of the winter
rye crop was reported as generally
good
The outlook for the 1922 cotton crop
was said to be still uncertain, although
agents of the department reported
some discussion" of increased acre
age. Indications were said to point
to an increased acreage in the pc.
tato crop in Florida and other south.
ern states.
Fruit trees were reported to be in
generally good condition throughout
the country, with the exception OF
probably some damage to peach buds
in southern New England by recent
low temperatures.
'The supply of farm labor" the de-
partment reported, lis plentiful and
generally exceeds the demand. Farm.
ers are employing as little help as
possible and are doing their own work
wherever they can manage it. Wages
are reported as getting lower"

GRAPES AND CHERRIEs

There are two quite important questions relating to the development and future prosperity of the Ozark Region of Western Arkansas, and the successful achievement of either one would add very much to the import. ance of Mena.
 This whole Ozark Mountain region IFS an ideal grape and cherry district and a New York grape juice com. pany IS now investing $200 GOO in this industry This business can be es. abolished in the highlands arounc Mena. and such an enterprise would add to the permanent revenues of tho people and assist the movement tc ship earlots of other fruits, produce and canned goods.
 The Concord grape is used for thi. purpose. Regarding the success oi the cherry, l can show any interested parties a number of trees in this cit, that have produced from S1O to S2l tree for 2 series of years.
 Ten thousand acres in grapes an, cherries would add much to Mena importance. w. c. B. Allen.

THOUGHTS FOR HoMEFoLKs.

It is common knowledge that Mena, and probably four other cities con- testing for the Western Assembly were disappointed that the meeting at Mena had to end without decision.
 One place, Magazine, is said to have definitely protested against such course on the very reasonable grounds that the members of the commission had not been able. because of weather conditions, to see the site.
 But there has been. in some ouar. tera, in Mena, loose talk about the nlatter-some criticism of the actior taken.
 Let's take look at things:
 Some months ago a meeting of the temporary commission was held al Fayetteville. There was strong hopes among the various communi ties there represented. that the de eislon would then be made. Some Q. these had attended other meetings had been in the fight for perhaps a mneh as two or three years.
 But as the session was almost a end turning from the eleventh 10 th' s-ssfsh hour, ks it were Ncna. D, aHlsRatex. appeared. There wn some siiTht opposition 10 giving then sselenes. hak strong men. iaadera. ca

Grow Your Hay Supply.

Many Arkansas banks are refusing loans to farmers for the purpose of buying hay and feed because this practice proved ruinous in the past and will undoubtedly do so again. There is no reason why our farmers should not produce their own feed supply. Our cash crops are uncertain and freight rates are high. The man who produces his own feed will get thru regardless of prices. We should have more permanent meadows. Too many nave made no provision for hay crops. Lespedeza should be our standby. It is adapt ed here, it is certain and it makes hay of the finest quality. Other grasses and clovers are probability so why bother with them until we have an established meadow of les pedeza.
 A few suggestions might be help full in getting a stand of grass crops and clovers. First don't expect to get stand of grass on land which has had all of it's humus used up by grow ing corn and cotton.
 Second, we fertilize other crops, why not grass. The tiny grass plant often starYes to death because it's root system is unable to supply plant food. Try an application of barn. yard manure or 150 pounds nitrate of soda and 250 pounds acid phosphate per acre. Third, don't loosen seedbed. The grasses seed themselves natural ly on the rather firm soils of mead ows, pastures and woodlands. The root systems of these crops make such feeble growth that they are un- able to establish themselves suffi- ciently on lose soil to withstand wind, dishing rains, dry weather, etc.
 Fourth, nature seeds these crops early. Lespedeza is already up and growing, They must be planted ear ly if they are to withstand the hot, dry weather of next summer.
 There are also a number of annual hay crops which should be used more extensively.
 Oats followed by cowpeas give two excellent, dependable hay crops on the same land. One hundred and fifty pounds of nitrate of soda per acre ap- piled broadcast to the oat field in April will almost double the yield on average land.
 
 the heavier soils and bottoms. Plant at the same time and in the same way you would plant cotton.
 Velvet beans supply excellent win ter pasture but to be successful with them use an early variety. Eighty day Florida, and plant early. Plant one bean every three feet in the corn row and they will need no further at tention.
 Spanish peanuts are one of the best forage crops. They supply both hay and grain of high quality. On most of our soils they are more econ omical than corn. Fertilize them with acid phosphate.
 Anyone who cannot raise any of the above crops still has sorghum and su- dan grass to fall back on. Surely we can raise enough for the teams and the cattle.

MENA IS ALL RIGHT

The Star is not going to presume tc forecast the final judgment of the Commissioners in locating the Assem- bly,, but it feels entirely justified in declaring that Mena is all right---it has no grounds for worry at this time There are cogent reasons why the men on whose shoulders rest a re- sponsibility to at least million of their churchmen, should go slowly look before leaping, being as sure as hunanly possible that they have done their very best.
 There is no valid reason, in consid- ering this delay, to decide that Mena has lost the Assembly. The Star is going to BELIEVE Mena will win un- til the final announcement, and then it expects to KNOW it.
 In the meantime it is a joy to KNOW that we have presented oul case in the most complete and definite form. Our proposals could not have been drawn more in conformance tc the official declaration of the wishes of the Commission had those wishes been in the hands of our committee when it formulated our proposals And, too, when our offer--our con- crete, clearly stated offer, as printed in The Star in this issue, was laid be- fore the Commissioners, our commit tee was prepared, without leaving the building in which the sessions were being held, to supply bond to guar antee the fulfiIlment of each phase of the proposal--to negotiate and sigr legal documents covering the terms as laid down. It is interest that nc ether city was so prepared to meet the issues.
 Mena rejoiced, too, in the hospital ity it was, thru it's good citizens, en. abled to extend to the Commissioners and to the delegations who came tc contest the prize It feels that it Jeff  no stone unturned in courtesy anC hospitality.
 Just now The Star leaves to the flu. ture any possibility or discussion oi defeat--of what Mena will do if il loses this fine thing-but it know: that, in any event it has won 8 grear victory. It has shown it's strength the strength of united effort, of gooC fellowship, of its citizenship.
 Its great, is it not?

THE GREATEST THING
 IN POLK COUNTY

"What is the greatest thing in Polk county? What has been the greatest thing in Polk county? Or what will be the greatest thing in Polk county :? Two words answer all of the above questions. Her schools" No one can reasonably deny this statement, however, at least seventy-five per cent of the people in general, really believe that something else is more important. For instance: The other day one of Hatfeld's popular mer- chants met one of the teachers of the Hatfield school and didn't know that this person was teaching. Further more the school had been going on nearly six months. We might excuse this man on the grounds that he had no children in school.
 But there are inexcusable cases: another man in the same town was complaining the other day about such Thigh school tax" This was not the first time he had been heard growing about Thigh taxes" and the writer made fair estimate of the amount of beautiful weather this able-bodied man had used sitting around on the street corner grumbling about our government, schools and churches Counting his time to be worth fifteen cents an hour, this man spends an. nually about three hundred times more money than he pays for school tax.
 We can close our eyes and see how poor. Russia went to pieces and how the ignorant people caused it. Ther we can open our eyes and see our own country with the little school houses and other signs of progress. We make great contrast. Russia had no edueation--we see the result. The United States has a poor little system Of education and is doing well fwe can't eomplain.) Let's take the lrishman's logic: If little of some. thing does some good, a great amount does still more good.
 Let's make our educational system of Polk county better bv paving ony school tax freely (and even vote for morel, cooperating with the school iacuity and board. getting interested in the school affairs of Polk eopntx ana making them hum, and remember that humming is not growing. ever II humming bird does sound like . dog growing there's lots nf aiTer- ence In the two sounds.

Interesting Farm at Acorr

Interesting Farm at Acorn.
 The writer visited recently the farm of H. J. Petefish of Acorn where there are a number of practical ideas being carried out which should interest oth- CT farmers. Mir. Petefsh has his fence rows and turn rows seeded down to a grass and clover mixture. In turning the teams do little damage to the grass. Two mowlngs year keep down the sprouts and wilderness of weeds with which we are all too familiar. The hay produced pays for the labor. By doing this a liability has been changed into an asset and an eyesore into an attraction.
 On the farm is also demonstra- tion in soil building where thru crop rotation, the use of cover crops, green manure crops and judicious appllea- tion of fertilizer the fertility of the land is being restored. This plot will be of interest in the future.
 Mir. Petefish is also building up a dairy business. He has started as most of us should start with the na- tive stock of the country. He has bought and sold cows until he has ac- cumulated number of excellent pro ducers. The poor ones don't stay with him long. He believes in dairying for cash crop as we'll as means of building up his soil fertility. He feeds cottonseed meal to his cows and has left in the voidings three-fourths of the fertilizing value. Consequent ly his fertilizer bills are light.
