Is Your Seed Tested? 1
The long, wet fall has made the seed situation serious. g
Tests of both corn and cotton show that most seed is 8
only testing from 10 to 60 per cent g
I PLANTING POOR SEED WASTES MONEY. 8
Wastes the money it is worth as feed; wastes valua- 8
ble time, you can’t replace; and eliminates the possibil- |5
ity of a good crop. j,[
TESTING IS EASY, NECESSARY . jjj
AND PAYS BIG g
If you have good, tested seed for sale, or if we can be ]![
of slightest assistance in giving information as to test- v
ing or in finding good seed near home, write ^

Liquor Dealers Confer.
Special to Independent,
j Little Rock, April 10.—Liquoi
dealers from all sections of Ar
kansas arrived in Little Rod
Thursday and remained in con
Terence during the entire day
The conference was continuec
over through Friday, and when
it is over the liquor men expect
to have w'ell defined plans for
their future action, as controlled
by the Going bill.
The liquor dealers decline tc
discuss their plans, but it is re
ported no effort will be made tc
either seek the repeal of the act
by invoking the initiative, under
the Initiative and Referendum
Amendment to the Constitution,
or make a fight for the repeal ot
the bill in the next legislature.
The fight in the legislature will
be the last resource, for if the
question is taken there for set
tlement the saloons would be
closed for several months before
a bill could become effective,
even if it was passed early in
the session.
Kirby Visits Poinsett Again.
Jonesboro, April 9.—Judge W.
F. Kirby passed through this

Harrisburg. He was joined here
by Attorney N. F. Lamb, who,
with Attorney J. J. Mardis, of
Harrisburg, will represent Judge
Kirby in adjusting the vote of
that county.
Judge Kirby stated while here
that he had no fear of the vote
as given by L. Clyde Going, be
ing permitted to stand, when the
state executive committee had
gone over the situation there, as
the statements from hundreds
of reliable citizens of Poinsett
county would be had to the ef
fect that not n»ore than 1,20C
votes were cast in the recent pri
mary and that there was nc
question of his receiving ovei
five hundred votes in that coun
ty. A demand will be made foi
a copy of the poll books am
each vote will be looked aftej
carefully and an effort will b<
made to get the exact vote as i1
was cast in that county.

Arkansas Men Working Foi
Great Drainage Congress.
Seven prominent citizens of
' Arkansas have been appointed
a special committee to secure a
strong delegation from this state
to the fourth annual meeting of
the National Drainage Congress
at Savannah, Ga., April 22-25,
inclusive. They are, Senator Joe
|T. Robinson, vice-president for
j Arkansas; Congressman T. H.
Caraway, member of the Gen
eral Educational Committee; S.
E. Simmonson of Luxora, execu
tive committeeman; Dr. Wm. H.
Deaderick of Hot Springs, sec
secretary of the Section on Ma
laria Eradication; Dr. Morgan
Smith of Little Rock, member
of the Section on Malaria Eradi
cation ; Charles H. Miller, of Lit
tle Rock, and S. C. Dowell of
Walnut Ridge, member of the
General Educational Committee.
Arkansas is vitally interested
in the success of the National
Drainage Congress. In addition
to suffering front floods and ov
erflows in the valleys of the Mis
sissippi, Arkansas, Ouachita, Red
River, White, St. Francis, and
other rivers, Arkansas has 5,
912,350 acres of swamp lands
within her border. If reclaimed
and converted into farms these
acres would add enormously to
the agricultural wealth of the
state, and increase the annual
value of farm crops by at least
$100,000,000. These rich acres
which at present produce noth
ing but ill health and suffering,
will be reclaimed and turned
into rich farms if the efforts of
the National Drainage Congress
are successful.
Sheriff Contests Election.
, Special to Indepenednt.
iLttle Rock, April 11.—Marl<

est ever cast in the county. Sen
ator Clarke carried the county
by a small majority.

Dr. Miles’ Heart Remedy
Successful Merchant After Investigation
Found a Remedy That Re
; . stored H!s Health.
"This Is Thanksgiving day In the
state of Pennsylvania, and I want to
devote a part of
it in writing a
lotter to you.
On the 2fith day
of November, ’10,
I was stricken
with heart
trouble. My
family physician
called it Angina
Pectoris. I had
from one fo five
attacks in 24
hours, in the
latter part of
Piecembor, 1910.
I wrote to the
Miles Medical Co., for information con
cerning my case, and in reply I received
a very kind and instructive letter,
which I handed to my family doctor,
and he told me to use your Remedies
I in connection with the medicine he
gave me, so I did. I used five bottles
of Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy and seven
bottles of Dr. Miles' Nervine. I was
! confined to the house for about four
months. The action of rny heart is
now, and has been normal for the last
six months. I can truly recommend
Dr. Miles' Nervine and Heart Remedy
■ to do what they are intended for, if
! used according to directions. I ttiank
| you kindly for your advice in answer to
my monthly reports. 1 am r w sixty
seven years of age. have he n in the

A CONFESSION 1
Hopes Her Statement, Made Public,
will Help Other Women*
Hines, Ala.—“I must confess”, says
Mrs. Eula Mae Reid, of this place, "that
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, has done me
a great deal of good.
Before 1 commenced using Cardui, I
would spit up everything 1 ate. I had a
tired, sleepy feeling all tne time, and was
irregular. 1 could hardly drag around,
and would have severe headaches con
tinuously.
Since taking Cardui, I have entirely
quit spitting up what I eat. Everything
seems to digest all right, and 1 have
gained 10 pounds in weight”
If you are a victim of any of the numer
ous ills so common to your sex, it is
wrong to suffer.
For half a century, Cardui has been re
lieving just such ills, as is proven by the
thousands of letters, similar to the above,
which pour into our office, year by year.
Cardui is successful because it is com
posed of ingredients which act specifically
on the womanly constitution, and helps
build the weakened organs back to health
and strength.
Cardui has helped others, and win help
you, too. Oet a bottle today. You
won’t regret it Your druggist sells it
