Legion Sells Flags

The local post of the American Le-
giOn sold fifty United States flags to
the business men of the town last Fri
day and when they are received and
installed they will make a very pretty
decoration for our town.
The flags are sold complete with a
metal holder which fits down in the
concrete walk and when not in use the
holder is capped and being level with
the walk is absolutely out of the way.
The flags are large and of good mater
ial, attached to a twelve foot staff, and
on all flag days are to be set in the
metal holders. Fifty flags thus ar
ranged around our court square will
add much to its appearance on decora-
tiOn days.
The flags have been shipped and will
be delivered as soon as they arrive
here

Building Boom

PocahOntas lumber dealers report a
big boom in building in Randolph coun-
ty during the past few weeks. Lum-
Der and other building necessities have
been reduced to prices lower than any
since before the war and builders are
taking advantage of this condition.
In PocahOntas the building boom is
most pronounced. The new Sallee
Bros. service station adjoining the
Lewis Furniture Co. building is almost
completed. 1t is of stuccO, a drive-in
station and will be mark of beauty
when completed. Chas. and Edmond
Jones have each completed a beautiful
dwelling in POcahontas recently. Noah

bungalow on ThOmaSville Ave. The
Standard Oil Co. is grading and laying
the foundation for a wholesale ware

Win Two Games

A vicious. driving offensive. combin-
ed with determined defense, carried
the Poca Iii football team to victory
over Walnut Ridge Hi on the local
field last Friday. Although outweigh
ed approximately twenty pounds per
man, the Poca team fought with a
spirit that carried the heavy visitors
off their feet both literally and figura-
lively, and kept the ball in the shadow
Of the Walnut Ridge goal three-fourths
of the game. Coach Rainwater brought
about twenty players from the Ridge
and almost all of them were used in
an attempt to stop Poca. Only two
suhstitutions were made by the Poca
coach.
The game started with Poca receiv-
ing. Bittsy Pickett. made the catch
but dropped the ball when he was
tackled and Walnut Ridge player
fell ON it. Then came the biggest sur
! prise Poca football fans have ever ex-
perienced. The husky Ridge backs
tore at the light Poca line, but four
times they were thrown back without
a gain and the ball went to Poca. So
encouraged We're the Poca backs by
the work of their line that they romped
down the field on straight line plays
until they lost the ball on downs on
the Walnut Ridge ten yard line. All
during the first half they continued
the drive for touchdown. forcing the
visitors to adopt defensive pnnting
game. The work of ThrOgmorton,
POca back. was the feature of this
period. He tore through the Walnut
Ridge tackles time after time for long
gains and his loss was keenly felt
when, at the beginning of the second
half, he was taken from the game
with an injured knee. Walnut Ridge
received to start the second half but
was held for downs and another Poca
drive for a touchdown was started.
Johnnie Shea, tiny Poca back, made a
brilliant twenty yard run through the
line and Traw smashed through tackle
ten yards to the Walnut Ridge one
yard line Here the visitors braced

These varieties all made exception
ally high yields, with DelfOs the high
est at 1920 pounds seed cotton per
acre and Foster No. 140 the lowest at
1910 pounds per acre.
This cotton was grown on the farm
of A. G. LangstOn at Shannon, Ark.
The land on which this cotton grew is
sandy loan and very fertile. The cot
ton was fertilized with high grade
complete fertilizer and all plots re-
ceived the same cultivation.
Mr.. LangstOn has long been be-
leiver in DelfOs cotton and this year
has eleven acres that will average bet
ter than bale per acre. OF the varie-
ties mentioned above the Delfos was
about three weeks earlier than any of
the others. Mr.. LangstOn states that
the DelfOs was opened and 800 pounds
per acre had been picked before any
of the other varieties opened.
Now that Randolph county is near
the northern cotton boundary line it
would be well for all cotton farmers
to study the results of this variety
test very thoroughly and determine
which is the best suited to his particu-
lar condition. Earliness is one of the
most desirable factors in a cotton
variety for this section of the country.
In this test the DelfOs has outstripped
all varieties tried by far, in earliness
and yield per acre. In addition the
Delfos has a good staple does not pro-
duce too much stalk and has good
percentage of lint. BY selecting a
good variety, proper fertilization and
cultivation the cotton crop in Ran
dolph county can be improved upon in
both quantity and quality.

COTTON VARIETY
TEST COMPLETED

The average farmer does not give
sufficient thought to the variety of cot
ton best adapted to his conditions.
There are many varieties of cotton on
the market and many varieties are
bought without knowledge of their
value. A great deal has been said
about the variety of cotton best adapt
ed to local conditions. As a result of
this, the county agent, L. p. Smith,
secured ten different varieties and in
cooperation with A. G. Langston plant
ed these varieties to determine which
were the best suited to local conditions.
The following table gives the results
after each cotton had been picked and
weighed separately:

The representation in the house is
as follows: Republicans 247; Demo
Gratis 1872: Farmer-Labor 3; Socialist
2. This gives the republicans a heavy
working majority, and with major
ity of more than ten in the senate the
administration should experience little
difficulty in putting over any legisla-
