to be a safe agricultural program, re-
commended as follows;
First Raise your corn ana nay, ana
save your own seeds for planting.

more good milk cOws-not scrub STOCK.
Third: Have from 40 to 200 pure
bred hens from good laying strain,
also have a purebred sow and raise
your pigs.
Fourth: Have a good garden. Pant
enough of these for home consumption,
at least, blackberries, strawberries and
peaches. Have a can of fruit for each
day Of the year.
Fifth: Spend the remainder of your
time raising cotton. Plant less acre
age cultivate it better and make proht
on what you raise.
Sixth: These truck crops are recon-
mended Tomatoes, green beans, irish
potatoes, spinach, early sweet corn
Seventh: Two and one-half acres Of
sorghum planted in rows and worked
well will make molasses for family
and roughage for team and COW, also
feed for the chickens.
The above resolution, suggestions
and program is highly recommended
by our bank commissioner and the Ar
kansas Bankers Association.
You have this year to adjust your
selves, and remember, if you do not
have your feed for 1926, do not ask
us for money to make a crop. Start
now to live at home and save your
selves as well as us, the embarrass-
ment of refused credit for 1927.
Yours very respectfully

COOrdinating Charity

There has eventually grown up vast network
of institutions ministerng to the ill., the unfortunate
and the needy. The hundreds of social agencies
present challenging and inspiring task to anyone
interested in the consolidation and coordination of
human welfare work.
In the operation and administration of this maze
Of diverse and complicated activities there is natur
ally large amount of duplication of effort Great.
ing truly serious problem in efficiency.
1t is mistake to suppose that plans for coordinat-
ing this work applies only to large cities. Every
city and town profitably coordinate it's charit-
able agencies. The great saving in time, labor and
money which may be thus effected would provide for
wider and more inclusive public service.
Bismarck has taken forward step in this direc-
tion.

Sometimes commencement oratory comes swiftly
home to roost. Mr.. William Allen White made the
address to- the graduating class of the high school
in Emporia, but day two later met in the street
q kansan from out of town, who told him that he
had listened to his "edfying remarks" He said
that the editor had rather convinced me that this is
beautiful town and that life here is noble adven-
ture. Then l went out and found that some of your
leading citizens had swped all the bulbs off my car
Having the last word in his Daily Gazette the ed
itor said that the complaining citizen was mighty
lucky not to have lost his tires ALSO Then he pro-
ceeded to say: Wherever 10000 people or more
are gathered there are crooks and thieves sneaks
and slanderers flower-stealers and dog prisoners
tightwads and peddlers the bear-eyed, the low
browed and the dumb-hearted"
II Emporia can furnish samples Of all these, it
cannot be the earthly paradise Of fond magma
ticn But Mr.. Whites genial serenity is not dis
turbed Just as every dog has its feas, every town
has its moral cripples. Otherwise, the angels would
load Emporia into hand basket and tote us all to

zens OF Emporia will have to order their ascension
