Committee Visiting Normais.

Superintendent of Public In struction J. J. Doyne, and Prof. B. w. Torreyson, superintendent of the Little Rock schools, mem berS of the committee from the state normal board, left Sunday afternoon for a tour of inspection of the normal schools of several southern and eastern states. They were accompanied by MT. and Mrs. George w. Donaghey of Conway, and Mrs. Doyne.
 Senator Otis T. Wingo, the other member of the committee was unable to make the trip with them.
 The first stop of the committee will be at Athens, Ga, where the Georgia state normal school will be visited. From there they will go to Rock Hill, $. C., and thence to Greensboro, N. C., where the normals of these two states will also be inspected. The tour may also be extended to include the Virginia normal school.
 The object of the trip is to in spect these nOrmals with re- ference to the buildings and equipment, so that the most advanced ideas may be gathered and put into use in the plans for the Arkansas state normal to be built at Conway. It is thought that work on the plans for the building will be begun as soon as the committee returns. The committee will be away about ten days.

PREDICTS RISE IN WHEAT.
Grower Says It Will Reach 81 25
A BuShel.

That there will be little more than {
two-thirds crop of wheat in the United
States, and that wheat will reach 81 25 &
bushel this fall, is the prediction of Geo.
C. Howe of Duluth, Mimi, one of the
largest wheat growers of the great North
west. Mr.. Howe outlined the crop con-
ditions recently. He said !:
"In Minnesota the crop is probably
two-thirds what it usually is, and the same
conditions prevail in North and South
Dakota. The backward spring held crops
up, and after they got started they were
injured in many places by excessive rains
In yet other sections there was shortage
of rain, and this condition has done the
most damage during the season Of matur-
ing of crops.
"Kansas will this year make not more
than so, 900, 900 bushels, which is about
three -fourths of the usual output. These
are the vital States when it comes to the
production of wheat, and | feel assured,
from present conditions, that the price will
not be less than ST.. .25 in the autumn.
The foreign demand is strong and has a
tendency to advance prices. The output
of Argentina is not yet known, and the
crop in South America will exert a strong
influence on the market and be of much
importance in connection with the year 5
output. 1t cannot, under the most favor
able conditions, however, be sufficient to
prevent wheat reaching price it has not
reached for number of years. y

Henhouse and Front Yard.

Get that old barrel, that old bedstead and
that old plow and all other rubbish out Of
your henhouse The henhouse is no place
to keep tools or to store furniture. Then
spray every crack and every crevice with
a strong solution of fzenoleum. Then white
wash inside and out. Spray the floor, put
in new straw, clean up the grounds and
make arrangements to spray some more
next next week.
One of the most disagreeable sights one
runs across is bare bleak dirty front yard
with about 80 or 40 dirty, lousy, half starved
chickens, ducklings and goslings running
around the house or on the porch. Such
a sight will sicken any refined persons of
the poultry business. Fowls reared in
such a way are not profitable
Poultry should not be fed near the
house nor upon the porch. Feed back
away from the house. Set the watering
dishes back away from the path. If
necessary fence your fowls out of the front
yard. Neatness about the place is of the
greatest Importance. Keep your doorway
in order Give your fowls plenty of clear
space in the backyard. Sow grass seed,
sow plenty oft and keep sowing until you
get good stand Sow'it in the back yard
and in the front yard. Cut down the dog
kennel; clean up, and your fowls will be
less of nuisance and will yield you more
profit.

A Factory Romance.

So brief is the opportunity for personal life
with working people that perhaps in the little
time when they enter into self. consciousness
they live all the more ardently and vitality.
There is a peculiar intimation of this in Maude
Radford's immensely human and compelling
stories offactory life. IAN Idyl ofthe Yards
in the August McCIure's, tells the story of a
factory girl of modern type-vigorous, self
reliant. sophisticated-who suddenly meets
and grapples with moral dilemma of which
all her worldly, wise experience has taug ght her
nothing. One loses sight of economic laws
and theories in reading this tale, SO absorbing
is The interest of the human problem; but by
implication they are still there, and give this
fresh and original tale background of un.
usual perspective.

Busy Hens and Fertile Eggs.

R. R. Sando; in Agricultural Epitomist.
Busy, hustling hens mean contented,
thrifty hens that are not in an over-tat
condition; and that is the kind of hens
that produce strongly -fertilized eggs.
A little elementary explanation concern
ing the scratching shed plan of housing
and the feeding of grain in litter may be
of interest to many in this connection.
Where the scratching shed plan is adopt
ed it is customary to have the roosts and
nests in the rear (north) end of the build
ing, while the southern part, in front of
the numerous windows that should be in
the south side of every chicken house is
covered to depth of @ or II inches with
cut hay, straw or some similar material.
Into this litter is thrown all the grain
fed to the chickens and the birds are kept
busy and contented for hours at time,
hunting and digging around in the mater
ial for their food.
Where the mash system of feeding is
used exclusively, or where the plan of
throwing the grain feed on bare surface
where the fowls can pick it all up in just
a few moments is practiced, there is al
ways more or less trouble experienced, due
to the fact that the birds stand around, or
in cold weather NOPE around in groups,
after they have been fed, with no other
attractive way to pass the time until the
next meal shall be brought around to them.
But all this is changed where the birds
are made to scratch for their food. Every
old chicken on the Sando Buff Rock Farm
is at work in that straw for at least three
quarters of an hour after the grain is
thrown into it; and there is no hour of the
day when we can 60 out to our chicken
house where the birds are housed without
finding some chickens working in the
straw.
