Ashdown, Arkansas Better Farms Should Be Put to Forage Crops Pastures on most farms in Arkansas are relegated to the land which is un fit for cultivation or that which has been thrown out of cultivation, accord ing to observations conducted by Mar tin Nelson, Vive-Dean and Director of the Arkansas Experiment Station and College of Agriculture of the Univer sity of Arkansas. Pastures on most farms compromise the rocky , steep, wet, washed and gullied lands, the more open or partly timbered lands and even areas fully covered by tim ber, he states. “The purpose of the farmer to gei a return from these lands by using them for pasture is commendable," declares Vice-Dean Nelson, “yet if progress is to be made in live stock farming, some of the better lands on the farm must also be devoted to pasture. It is a well known fact that the amount of feed produced increases with the quality of soil devoted to the crop. “Pasture should be regarded as a part of necessary farm equipment. Whenever there is livestock there should be pasture. Although live stock on the farm may be limited to work animals, pasture is necessary for the best and most economical feeding. Finantial success in live stock farming in any section depends largely upon the quality of the pastures of that re gion. * “Grasses are the basis for lasti'ig pastures, and it is a hopeful sign -that faimers are becoming more interested in this important crop. The establish ing of grass for pastures is a compar atively new undertaking in many sec tions of the state. It will be well for those intending to establish pastures to conclude from the outset that the process is not simple and can not be done quickly.” POULTRY IS PROFITABLE BY ZEL*LA WIGENT, Agricultural Extension Department International Harvester Co. On the average farm little attention i« paid to the raising of poultry, yet nothing else pays so well for the amount of money invested and the amount of care required. There is no other work on the farm that boys and girls will find more plea sant or more profitable than raising chickens—and taking care of them. The laying hen is deserving of our best care and attention.. Every time she lays an egg she deposits nearly three cents in the farmer’s bank ac count, and yet we allow her to roost in trees, do not take and pains to give her the right kind of feed, com pel her to seek her drinking water wherever she can find it, and do not make the least effort to see that she is comfortable in cold or stormy wea ther. Poultry does not require a great deal of attention and nothing responds more readily to a little care than chickens. The work is light — just suited to the boy or girl on the farm. During the greater part of the year father and mother are too busy to give poultry the kind of attention it should have, but, with the present market prices of poultry and poultry products high, farm boys and girls will find that good care of a few chickens will bring in many dollars for spending money. Write your agricultural college for a bulletin on poultry raising and follow instructions. I 1 6 Prize Essay Written by One of the High School Girls i — i A prize of $5 was offered for best essay, and $2.50 for second best. Reva . Bishop, the honor graduate of the 1922-23 cla^s, won first prize. Elizabeth Mobley won second prize. Miss Bishop’s essay follows: THE POSSIBILITIES AND PRO BA BILITIES OF THE FUTURE WO MAN. “They talk about a woman’s sphere, As though it had a limit; There's not a place in earth or heaven There’s not a task to mankind given, That has a feather’s weight of worth. Without a woman in it.” Only a few years ago marriage was the only "sphere" open to girls and the single woman had to face the dis approval of her friends. Not many years have elapsed since the ambitious woman who ventured to study or write would keep a bit of embroidery at hand to throw over her book or manu script when callers entered. All this has changed, and what a change it is! As Frances Willard said, the greatest discovery of the century is the dis covery of woman. She has been emancipated, and countless opportuni ties are opening for girls outside of marriage. We need not go far to find the rea son why the great movements have no counterparts among the women. Giv ing but the briefest consideration to the age long difference in training, in aims and ideals of man and woman, we would not be unprepared for the differ ence in results. The man has been free to roam the earth; the woman has been held to the family and the home. But the world moves. Economic ne cessity or the desire for personal achievement has sent into the ranks of the professions and the business world millions of women. Everyone of them who has won for herself a place of respect has done more for women as a whole. The factory system and the im provements of the twentieth century have had a momentous effect on wo man’s economic position. Women have become important in the indus trial world not only ac buyers, but as producers. Woman in industry is no new feature. In primitive times woman’s activities included preparing products for home use. Now her in dustrial activities are numerous. Ten million women are wage-earners and they are found in nine-tenths of all the occupations. There are some things women can do better than men and there are many they can do equal , ly well. Edison is said to prefer wo men machinists for the details of his electrical inventions. In his opinion they “have a more delicate perception of machinery in one minute than most men have in their whole life-time.” While women previous to the nine ; teenth century, were not in any con siderable number represented in the world of invention, science and art, they today* have attained a command ing position in these and other lines iof activity-formerly almost wholly usurped by men. As inventors women have thus far produced fewer import ant results than in other fields. This doubtless is due to their environment, their hitherto inferior educational ad vantages, and their limited opportuni ties to compete with men. All these 'conditions, which have acted as a bi ght upon the mental productivity of women, are rapidly changing in their favor. After the most heroic strug gles women have secured their social, ntellectual, and industrial emancipa tion in the United States—all of which wa3 necessary before they could start on an even footing with the world to lemonstrate their ability in the realm of professional and scientific effort. They are now prepared to illustrate he limitations and possible expansion f their inventive genius. The coming /Oman has not yet arrived; but she i on her way. The more familiar wo len become with the commercial and idustrial operations and the needs f the country, the better will they be repared to cope with mechanical com exities. The future looks bright id glorious for all womankind. Study along scientific lines has been > quietly carried on by women that w persons are aware either of the mber or the activity of the women to are pursuing special lines in ience. Since high schools, colleges, .iversities, and laboratories are open women their advance in science is ly a question of time. As far back, as 1851 a woman was dialned minister. Notwithstanding imen have demonstrated their fitness r the work most churches are not ite ready to accept them on the lie grounds as men. The prejudice the past hinders them from receiv r the same open, generous welcome ich is extended to men. t is impossible to predict what the ult of women's ministerial work 1 be. Their power* in the pulpit ' their especial fitness for pastoral ik will be developed and shown in I proportion as the church makes them j free. It will require many years of loyal service before women will be able to prove to skeptical. denominations their capabilities for the ministry. Not only will they have to do the work fully as well as men, but they will have to prove themselves superior be I tore they will be recognized. They i have had to stand this test in every other department of the world’s work and the church will prove no exception to the rule. The ministry will be the last of the professions to give women ei^ial opportunities with men and yet the church is founded upon the declar ation, ‘‘There is neither male nor fe male for ye are all one in Christ Jesus the Lord.” ‘‘Woman’s place in banking is as natural as her place in any other busi ness or profession,” declares Mina. M. ,Bruere, head of the Woman's Depart ment of the Central Union Trust Com pany, New York City. “The same eco nomic evolution which has brought wo men into business offices, the law, and medicine, has created a place for women in banks. Women are not unique; they are not freaks, but are as human as other women and have the same type of minds.” Miss Brue’re believes that every service which af fects life will be performed better when it has the all-round co-operation of both men and women. She holds that a woman’s work in a bank, as in every other business, is not competi tive with the work of men but is com plementary to it. Among the contri butions which women are making to banking are a sensitiveness to detail andt an imagination which helps them to anticipate needs. Miss Florence R. Neuman of New York City is a. dental technician, an artificial tooth sculptor. 3he is under thirty years of age and is the only wo men dental technician in New York wrho owns and operates her own labor atory. She feels that there is a great future in her work for her and for other women who are mechanical minded and not afraid to work with itheir hands. She believes that 'women have a patience and pride which in spire them to turn out the most natur al looking artificial teeth, and that their smaller hands give them an ad vantage over men in working with the tiny bits of porcelain and, gold. Mrs. Ogden Mills Reid has broken down the popular tradition that the highest executive offices of the large metropolitan dailies are closed to wo men. Mrs. Reid is the successful ad vertising director of the New York Tribune. She has won a battle for other women who aspire to executive positions. When she began her work, seasoned newspaper men prophesied that she would tire of her job or else fail at it. Long ago she proved them wrong. In politics women are proving themselves capable. There are un limited possibilities for women in poli tics and in diplomatic service. Most of the women legislators are agreed on the opinion that woman’s place is most decidedly in the legislature and that women are peculiarly fitted to fill a place in the law-making body and to supply something which has hither to been lacking—the woman’s point of v»ew. The few women legislators are paving the way for the ranks of women to take their places in the legislative seats. Miss Lucile Atcherson, the first Am erican woman to enter the United States diplomatic service, recently passed the tests and qualified for a secretaryship in an embassy or a lega tion. Admittance to the diplomatic service is very restricted and the tests are exceedingly difficult. The state department rarely makes an appoint ment unless the applicant is especially fitted for the work by natural qaulitles and training. Women are confronted by the fact that in every public capacity they are as yeV largely on trial. Women have also found that men are not always .willing to accept them in business on a basis of fitness and capacity; there is a feeling of their encroachment on men’s particular activities. We would mark a long step forward if the world could be persuaded that there is no rivalry between men and women as such. The alert minds of women have ■only grasped; what opportunities have been given by our advancing civiliza tion and it is unworthy to deny them what they have earned. It is, how ever, one of the greatest problems wo men are facing today, In this man’s world—how to win the recognition due 'their accomplishments. With the lift ing of our civilisation to a higher level ;and the liberation of economic life wo men are free to choose their aims, their occupations, and their pleasures, as they have never been before. To in sure the highest returns, women's un selfishness and devotion to service % should not be discouraged and exploit ed, but honored and rewarded. -o— —. g% Cures Malaria, ChUls aa4 nnn^w. « »“>«• PASTURE MEANS CHEAP PORK PRODUCTION. By Edgar W. Cooley, Agricultural Extension Department ! International Harvester Company. The Illinois Agricultural Experiment! Station has recently conducted a series of experiments in the feeding of young pigs, and the results demonstrate that the greatest economy in the produc tion of pork follows the use of pas ture or other forage in connection with a grain ration. The following five important facts were shown by the experiment: 1— From 375 to 425 pounds of feed, fed with pasture, can produce 100 pounds of pork. The same amount of feed fed without pasture can produce the same amount of pork, provided from one-third to one-half more pro tein supplement is used. 2— A full grain ration on pasture will require the smallest amount of feed to produce a hog of marketable .weight. It is pointed ou\ however, that this may not always be the) most economical method. 3— When a medium grain ration on pasture is fed the least amount of pro duce a 225-pound hog. A medium grain ration on pasture, will also pro duce a pig of the desired weight (from 100 to 150 pounds) for handling the new corn crop. 4— Economical pork production does not so much depend upon the kind of forage used as it does upon furnishing forage throughout the whole crop growing season. 5— The most rapid grains in all of the experiments were obtained by feed ing corn, tankage and either middlings or ground oats, in the self-feeder, but corn and tankage produced economical results. -o Warning Order.

Sat 6 9 -o DAMAGE CLAIM DENIED Prairie Pipe Line Company Granted Verdict in Texarkana Federal Court. ******* Texarkana, May 22.—The case of Paul J. Revera, as administrator of the estate of Pat Irving, against the Prairie Pipe Line Company, which has been on trial since yesterday in the Arkansas side federal court, ended this afternoon when the jury, by in structions of Judge Youmans, return ed a verdict for the defendant. Pat Irving, who was a soldier in the World war, was drowned in Red river, about 10 miles north of here, in November, 1921. He was crossing the stream in a boat which was cap sized and in attempting to swim to shore, it is alleged, he became entang led in wird which the defendant com pany had placed in the river ‘o sup port its pipe line and drowned before he could extricate himself. The court based its ruling on the assumption that Red river, at the point where the accident occurred, is not a navigable stream. Attorneys for the plaintiff indicat ed that if a new trial is denied they will tak e an appeal. The amount of damage sued for was $11,800. -o MERCHANT TRIES SUICIDE Rope Used by Buck Range Man Was Too Long, However. Nashville, Mayi 22.—A. P.
