But never shall the one we love from

It's pretty hard to attend to duties

almost a certainty that worms are

Merchants With Vision

General recognition Of the fact that
Arkansas is pre-eminently an agricul-
tural state, that cotton is the big
money crop for the major portion Of
the farmers of the state and that
without farm prosperity there can be
no general prosperity, is now shown in
new and encouraging way In prac-
tically every county in the state banks
are publishing advertisements urging
agricultural necessities that many
farmers have overlooked or refused
to see In cotton counties the ad-
vertisements have urged early and
careful gathering Of the cotton crop,
SO that the growers may get more
money by reason of cleaner, whittier
staple and better grades and the saw
ing Of money through the planting
of feed stuffs Banks have told in
their advertisements how. when and
why to plant fall oats and rye, giving
also the varieties that are recon-
mended by agricultural experts.
A notable advertisement prepared
by County Agent L. p. Smith, appear
ed in recent edition of the Pocahon-
tas Star Herald. 1t comprised full
page and was contributed by the Pal
ace Drug Store, the Johnston Drug
Store, Burke's Pharmacy and Sallee
Bros 1t directed the attention of cot
the fact that the boil worm lives in
the soil throughout the winter ard
that the proper way to exterminate it
is by fall and winter plowing of the
land in which the worms have buried
themselves The advertisement eX-
plains that the cells of the wintering
brood are found at from four to six
inches beneath the surface and that
the blowing must be deep enough to
reach them. Also that particular at
tention must be paid to land on which
the crops were attacted by the boil

thorough cleanup of the fields. in
Guiding the burning of fence rows in
order to destroy alternating boil
weevils and red spiders also is urged
The advertisement sets forth that
fall and winter plowing will be worth
100000 to Randolph county, and
asks "Will you do this, or will you
plant another crop and see it destroy
ed?"
Evidently Randolph county has a
county agent who is on his toes and
who will accomplish something, as well
as merchants who realize that their
prosperity is interviewer with the pros
perity of the farmers.-Arkansas Gaz-
cite.
This page has appeared in the star
Herald several weeks and has been
paid for by a number of citizens who
realize what it win be worth to the
county if its message is needed by
