We are wont to associate the idea of
education with schools, colleges, pro-
fessors, teachers and text books, but
really a very large part of the most
valuable education attainable is to be
obtained entirely outside Of such in
strumentalities. The education which
one obtains as result of observation,
by keeping the eyes and ears open, by
the reading Of newspapers and books,
the reasoning from cause to effect, is
Of itself an education of the highest
type. Perhaps one fault of our mod
ern methods Of education lies In the
| fact that this last mentioned training
is too much ignored.
While we most heartily favor the.
teaching Of the elementary principles
Of agriculture In the country schools,
this largely BY object lessons. we do not
favor making It one Of the regular
studies, for the reason that most Of our
country schoolteachers, being young
women, are not competent for this
work. Then the other studies are al
ready enough to tax both pupil and
teacher, but largely 40 sort Of recre-
alton 4 little time may 30 most profit

One of the funniest things we have
come across lately was the case of
prominent breeder Of Jersey Red hogs.
He had some pedigreed hogs Of this
breed on exhibition at state fair, and
some jealous rival made the discovery
that red paint had been literally used
to cover up some color defects in the
animals. 1t Is needless to say that this
breeder will never hear the last Of this.

Some men claim that four quarts of
clover seed is ample seed for an acre
Of land. 1t might be if it could be
sown exactly right, but with our usual
methods Of sowing it Is not. Many
clover raisers lose half the value of the
clover rotation by scrimping on seed.

We have a friend who rented a
large farm last year on share rent, he
to have two-tifths of the corn crop de-
uvered in the crib as rent. He told US
the other day that his share Of the corn
returned him Sc per acre. While this
is good rent, there is one bad feature
about it. He thinks it Is such a good
thing that he wants all of his farm
planted to corn this year. He has only
got to follow this up for very few
years and the land won't return him
So an acre. 50 zsiF

l have been in this town some four weeks. Have visited the surrounding country for few miles in every direction. Have noted the change that has taken place on the majority of the farms since the advent of the railroad, which has connected you with the outer world. The Rip Van Winkle sleep has been disturbed by the whietle and bell of the en- zine.
 You, the inhabitants of the sur- rounding country, have found out some way that you have one of the best soils, and most fa- vorable locations, and most gen. ial climates between the two poles of the globe for all kinds of fruit grown in the temperate zone. If you have not found out these facts, the travellers, tourists and the homeseekers have.
 You have learned that the consumer wants your product and are preparing to meet the demand. We find thousands of acres of this wonderful fruit land already set to young orchards, and other thousands being pre- pared, and only few years will elapse before this land, instead of producing five or ten dollars worth of COW peas or corn, will produce fifty to one hundred dol lars worth of fruit per acre. And as every town or city is de- pendent on the resources of the surroundings, it takes no inspir- ed prophet to foretell what the future of our little city shall be.
 Already capital is looking in this direction for profitable in- vestment, and ere long, ou1 streets and houses will be light ed by electricity and large, well directed cider mills, picking factories, canning and preserving g factories, cold storage and ice plants will furnish such a pay roll to the dinner pail brigade as will make all business men wear smile that won't rub off.

This bill passed the house but was killed in the senate. The second indictment against Sena- tor Covington alleges that he gave Senator F. O. Butt, as a bribe, S250 to influence the lat ter's vote upon the annexation bill. The third indictment al- lodges that he accepted a bribe in connection with the same bill. It is charged that Senator Cov- ington received $500 for his vote and influence on that measure.
 Senator McFe rrin and Repre- sentative Claude Fuller were in- dicted on the charge of accepting 10O0- mile mileage book of the Iron Mountain railroad company.
 Representative Fuller served in the lower house of the last two sessions of the legislature and recently announced his candida . cy for the state senate, to suc- ceed Senator Butt, who SC term has expired. Senator Butt was arrested last summer on charge of giving Senator Adams of Grant county S1O0 to vote for the state capitol S800,000 appro. priation bill. His trial is set for February IS, at Perryville, where it was sent by Judge Lea on an- application of a change of venue filed by Senator Butt.
 Senator McFerrin is the author of the proposed constitutional amendment submitted by the last Legislature increasing the state tax levy for common school pur. poses. His term of four years
  also expired with the death of the last legislature.

NUMBER 49
Farms of the South.

While it is true that the in dustrial development of the south is going forward with amazing rapidity, it is neverthe- less true that, by virtue of the extent of the agricultural in- terest of the south, agriculture IS yet the foundation of the bus mess of that section. A change from poverty to prosperity of the farmer, as a change from land without a selling value to land in demand at an advantage of from 90 to 150 per cent over the nominal price of one or two years ago, is the most far reaching de- velopment in southern advance ment of the last quarter of a century. It is far-reaching in many ways, says the Manu- lecturers Record. It means that within the last year or two south- ern farm properties have in- creased not less than S1, ,0OO, ,O00,- 900 in value, probably at least S1 ,500, ,O00,OO0. But more than that, it means that under the i'm proved financial condition the southern farmer has gained new courage, new backbone, that he has learned how to market his cotton crop; that he has fought to a finish the great battle as to whether the producer or the spec ulator is to control the price of his staple. Having won this fight, the entire handling of cotton from the field to the factory, whether the factory be in this country or in Europe, has entered upon an en- tirely new stage in it's history. It also means that land will be more thoroughly cultivated, for the successful man, whether he be farmer, a merchant, or a manu-
 facturer, is always better able to work to good advantage than the
 one who is fighting a losing battle.
 During the last six years the | total value of the cotton crop, in-
 cluding seed, has been S3, ,60O,-
 GOO, ,000, against S2, 2,190, ,0O0,0 GOO
 for the preceding six years,
 showing a gain in the last six
 years over the preceding six of
 over S1,4OO, ,O0O,0OO. It is not,
 however, due to this increase in
 cotton alone that the southern
 farmer is in better shape. More
 and more has the diversification
 of agriculture gone on; more and more haveing fruit growing and
 truck raising, ''hog and hominy,'' with the meathouse at home
 rather than in the west, been developed throughout the south.

City and Country Scribes.

A great deal fun is indulged in by the city press over "small items" occasionally found in the country newspaper. These items are frequently copied and con- mented upon by the wise CD city editors in a vein supposed to dis credit the country weekly. But when you consider that the country weekly is owned by it's editor and that the man that writes the funny things about the country papers in the city journ- als is owned by the corporation for which he writes, it doesn't seem so sad.
 When you know that the aver age city newspaper mans idea of the country was gained from a back area with a plot of grass on it about the size of handkerchief, he can't know much about the country newspapers and their making and you don't shed tears on account of what he says. When you see an item in the city papers poking fun at the country editor for printing items about John Jones's new barn, you laugh and laugh-for you know that over on the 'steenth page of that same city daily is two col umn story in regard to the trim ming on the gowns of the Dutch ess of Wheelbarrow, and another double header on the trivial go- ings on of Harry Lehr.
 And it is all the more amusing because you know that the duch- ess and MT. Harry do not even know of the existance of the afore- said city paper, while John Jones and many of his neighbors take and pay for the paper which mentioned his new barn.
 When you consider that the average city newspaper man gets Harrison in Sebastian county and Rogers in Boone county and that he doesn't know whether corn is harvested in spring or winter or fall and that he says Gas was done by Kansas City paper the other day) that the "hand" in measur- ing a horse is three inche?, you cease to feel sorry for the country editor.
 The factis the country news paper man who knows his busi- ness and who attends to it, is more independent, morally and financially than the city news paper writer who pokes fun at him.
 Don't waste your pity on the country newspaper worker.
 He will get along.

 Senator Covington took an ac- tive part in the fight that was made upon the bil Is that were in- troduced in the last legislature providing for the remuneration of Argenta to Little Rock. He was one of the leaders in opposi. tion to the bills and made one of the principal speeches from the floor of the senate when the house bill providing for the re- annexation was up for consider ation.
 Senator Covington was one of the members of the general as- sembly indicted by the grand jury soon after the adjournment of the legislature. Two indict- mont charging bribery were re- turned against Senator Coving- ton on June 1, and he was again arrested on the same day. One of these indictments charged him with accepting a bribe of S6,OO0 in connection with the state cap- itol bill and the other charged him with accepting a bribe of S1, ,O00 to influence his vote on the Felsenthal bill, which propos- ed to divide Union county into judicial districts.
 Covington was placed on trial about three weeks after his in- dictment, and after a sensation al trial in which T. l.. Cox and M. D. L. Cook swore that Coving- ton had received S2,500 on the state capitol bill and to prevent the legislature from employing an architect to inspect the work that had been done on the state capitol, Senator Gov ington was acquitted. The verdict was rendered after the jury had been out for three days, and after all hope of reaching an agreement had been practically abandoned. After the verdict had been an- nounced the other indictment against Senator Covington was nolle pressed upon instructi ons from Prosecuting Attorney Rho- ten, who gave as his reason for this action that the evidence in the second case was no stronger than in the first.
 1 Senator Butt and the recently made groom were also indicted for brib cry, the indictme nt al- leging that each received S25C to vote against the Brooks bill to re-annex Argenta to Little Rock

Senator A.. w. Covington was arrested last Saturday at Clarkesville on charge of bribe- ry for the second time since the grand jury began it's investiga- .tion of boodling.
 Senator Covington was taken into custody on three bench war rants, two of which charge him with bribery and the third with conspiracy. The warrants were issued on indictments returned by the grand jury upon it's ad- journment Friday. All three of the indictments are based upon the alleged proceedings con- nected with the two bills intro duced in the last legislature pro- viding for the re- annexation of Argenta to the city of Little Rock.
 One of the indictments charges Senator Covington with accepting
 bribe of S1, 300 from some per- Son unknown to the grand jurors to influence his vote of the annex ation bills. The other bribery indictment charges him with giv- ing Senator F. o. Butt of Car roll county bribe of S250 to in- fluence his vote on the same bills. The third indi ctment charges Senator Covington with conspir- ing1Mith another member of the senate to vote and use their in- / Huence against any bills that might be introdu ced iding for the annexation of Argenta to Little Rock.
 These indictments were includ- ed in the ten true bills which comprised the final report of the grand jury.
 Senator Covington was in Lit- tie Rock when the grand jury made it's report, but he was not arrested until he had returned to his home in Clarksville. Senator Covington went to Sheriff Kings home Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock, stating that he under- stood he had some warrants fo r his arrest. Sheriff King then served the warrants and proceed ed with Senator Covington to the court house. The bond was fixed by Judge Lea at S3, 1000 in each of the bribery cases, and S1,0OO in the conspiracy case, making total of s7 ,oo0 required.
 No other arrests were made Saturday on the in d ictments re- turned by the grand jury, but it is understood that warrants are in the hands of the officers for four other members of the gen. eral assembly. Two of these are said to have been indicted on charges of bribery and conspiracy and the other on charge of &C., cepting railroad passes while
