FREE MASONRY AND THE SCHOOLS

The Free Masons of America are thoroughly committed to the promo tion of popular education. The vari
 ous Masonic organizations are SUD.
 porting the public schools and arc consistently opposing all agencies ol institutions that are openly opposed to this peculiarly American institu- tion. There are certain strong in- fluances at work throughout the country to restrict the influence and retard the work of free public schools These influences, the Masonic organi- zations condemn as enemies of the people, It has we'll been said by those who are close students of public af- fairs that Free Masonry and the pub lie schools are the hope for the fu- ture of America. Without their in- fluence in the upbuilding of the poli- tical, social and industrial morale, Americas would soon be in the hands of inimical agencies that would speed lily reduce it to a condition of an- archy and social unrest greater even that that which now prevails. There are in Arkansas more than 34,000 Free MaSons and each one of these men is consecrated to the welfare of the public school system.

mud in February or March, one bushel seed an acre. It will cover itself.
 There is no permanent hay crop that yields we'll on worn out or thin land. There are many profitable annual hay crops for such land. COW peas, Spanish peanuts, sorghum, sudan grass and soy beans are among the best.
 OATS.-Cut when we'll in the milk will make good hay ready to feed by the middle of June Most farmers cut oats for hay too late. An application early in March of 80 to 100 pounds an acre of nitrate of soda usually doub- les the yields Put in on when plants and ground are dry.
 COW PEAS.-Graw on any sold fit for farming. Sown as soon as danger of frost is over, the crop is ready to cut for hay in August when hay mak- ing is easiest. Sown late, the crop is cut in October when wet weather often causes heavy yosses.

BOND ELECTION CALLED
Property Owners Along Proposed Tex. arkana.LOuisiana Highway to Vote.

Texarkana, May 1S.-County Judge C. w. Nolan has issued an order for an election to be held May 29, to de- eide as to a proposed bond issue of $35O, 900 to be used in building what is designated as "The Texarkana- Louisiana Highway" from Texarkana, via Fouke, Fort Lynn, Black Diamond, Doddridge and Kiblah, to the Louisi- ana state line, about 30 miles south of here.
 The last Arkansas legislature pass ed an act creating 9, highway district for building the proposed highway, but with provision that such act would not become operative until after an election had been held and a majority of the land owners in the territory had voted in favor of the measure.
 Public meetings will be held in all the population centers of the territory involved, beginning at Diddridge May 23, at which speakers both for and against the highway will be heard. The highway would connect with the Louisianan good roads at the state line thus giving a direct connection from Texarkana to Shreveport and other points south.

Hay is Very Essential;
 Few Farms Have Enough

The U. s. Census 1920 showed that no hay or forage was raised
 on 54 farms out of every 100 farms
 in Arkansas.
 One of the big drains on Arkansas farmers is paying for hay raised in other states. The farmer who buys a few bales at time gets less for his money than for any other money he spends. He does not feed enough to keep his stock in profitable condition the freight is more. than the cost of producing the hay and he pays for the expenses and profits Of each handling from the point of shipment.
 The annual hay crop in Arkansas is around 900,000 tons. About 6O,OOO tons of cottonseed Lulls and probably .250, 900 tons of rice, oat and wheat straw and corn fodder are fed in place of hay, less than one-fourth lion tons of home grown hay and stitutions. It would take four mil tons to feed as literally as in Ok ma and Missouri, where farmers duce surplus.
 Every Arkansas farmers sl make it part of his business year to produce all the hay tna, his livestock need to keep in the thrifty condition. A farmer cal up good hay with a scythe and ft the only tools. It can be made little man labor by using II farm machinery. Because of stinted feeding c work stock is not able to do full dairy cows give less milk, beef are under weight and young make a slower growth and a profitable.
 }';
 HOW MUCH HAY?
 Raise for each animal:
 Work horse or mule, tons.
 Horse or mule colt, two ton Dairy COW. three tons.
 Mature beef animal and grow tie, two tons.
 When deciding on how mar to raise consider that the yiel probably be cut by a draught heavy rains will spoil part of Plant to raise plenty.
 What to Raise.
 Alfalfa. LespedeDa, and grass make permanent hay, rich land. Alfalfa on land W ed not overflowed and rich pedeza and Bermuda grass on acid soils that are wet. on wet rich land will return Ia fit than cotton. Sow broaden

CLARK MAY LOSE IT'S
FIRST WOMAN MAYOR

Clark, May 15.-There Is a possibil-
ity that Clark may lose its woman
mayor, Miss Hattie Pickles, Who for
some time has been in charge as
teacher Of the eight grade of the city
schools.
A year ago she was elected mayor
of Clark, being the first nm in
the history of South Dakota to be
elected to the Office OF mayor.
Miss Pickles has been offered a pos
ition on the faculty of the state nor
NAL school at Springfield, S. d., and
now is considering the offer, which
pays a much larger salary than she
receives in Clark. The nature of the
work she will do, provided she accepts
will be similar to her work at the
state normal school at Aberdeen last
summer.
