TO IMPROVE
FARM LIFE
COMMISSION CREATED BY PRES
IDENT ROOSEVELT TO. INyES.
TIGATE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC
CONDITIONS OF THE FARM. (

| Washington, Aug. 25.-That the
commission recently, cerated by Pres
ident Roosevelt TO investigate social
and economic conditions on the farms
of the country will prove to be the
most important and far-reaching Of
any of the reforms undertaken by d.
rectiOn of the chief executive, Clifford
Pinchot, chief forester of the govern
ment and himself one of the commits
sioners, firmly and enthusiastically
believes
1.-THE president has done more for
the farmer by this move" said Mr.
| Pinchot to United Press correspon-
dent, than any other single act in
the history of the country. Too
many farmers sons are leaving the
| homestead for the more attractive
life of the cities. The president
thinks there ought to be some way
to make life on the farm SO attrac-
tive-that is, in some other way than
money returns-that there will be
surplus of farmers rather than a
shortage. He thinks the national
/ well-being lies with the farmer-and
he is right. If social conditions were
] improved there need be no dearth
of hands for the harvest time.
NO." continued Mr.. Pinchot, 81
don't believe the president had any
particular section of the country in
mind. The farmer of the west needs
social enjoyment just as much as his
brother of the south. of the north, or
of the east
The farm improvement idea is a
| brand new one in many respects.
There are many organizations work
ing for back to nature" exodus;
there is "Homecroft" organization
which wants city men to try the de-
lights of country life, but the idea of
retaining the farmer by making his
environment more pleasurable is
new. True, DR.. Harvey w. Wiley,
chief government chemist. philoso-
pher, autocrat of the poison squad
breakfast table and exponent of the
sunny life, some time ago suggested
plan whereby the farmer could get
more social intercourse, but some of
the obvious disadvantages more than
out-weighed it's many excellent
points.
In brief, his plan embodied the
| following points: On every quarter
section of land. where the corners
| meet, the farmers owning land in
each quarter section should build
their houses. That would mean four
dwellings and four families within
speaking distance of each other. DR..
Wiley thought that life wouldn't be
SO lonesome on the farm with four
families forming a small-sized village
every few miles.

ALASKA WHEAT
IS A FAKE
GOVERNMENT EXPERTS SAY
THAT THE WONDERFUL" VA.
RIETY is NOT A SUCCESs.-NOT
GOOD FOB FLOUR.

Washington. D. C., Aug. &C.
Someone has been trying to
"ssring" the farmers of the country.
According to experts of the de-
partment Of agriculture, the exploit
alton of the so-called Alaska wheat,
which is said to be about four times
the size of ordinary American wheat
in lead, and to yield under ordinary
soil conditions 200 bushels to the
acre. is almost as rank fake as the
Cardiff Giant.
For the past few months articles
glowingly descriptive of the alleged
new discovered grain, ana predicting
a consequent revolution in the wheat
industry of the nation, have been
widely published in magazines and
newspapers.
DR.. Galloway, chief of the Bureau
of Plant Industry, thus explodes the
pretensions of the Alaska wheat
boomers:
"This variety of wheat has been
known for many years, both in this
country and in Europe. 1t has been
tried at several state experiment sta
lions in the western part of the Unit
ed States during the past Is years,
but nowhere have the yields been
high enough to merit attention. 1t
has been grown to very limited
extent on certain heavy, undrained
soils in France for many years. In
such locations 1t is said to yield ra-
ther better than ordinary wheat, but
as it is one of the poorest wheats
known for making -four it is never
grown where the ordinary varieties
of the grain will thrive"

ID AID LOCAL OPTION
SENATE COMMITTEE REACHES AGREEMENT ON LIQUOR
 SHIPMENT MEASURE
WILL PROTECT PROHIBITION TERRITORY
The Bill Agreed Upon Provides That There Shall Be No c. O. D. Ship ments In Interstate Commerce Where Fictitious Names Are Used Other Bills Unconstitutional.

Washington, Apr. 7.--After extend ed hearings and exhaustive arguments by the members of the senate com mittee on the judiciary that committee Monday agreed upon a bill dealing with the shipment of liquors from one state or territory to another state or territory. The measure will be report ed by Senator Knox. who was chair man of the subcommittee which con ducted the hearings. It is compara- lively simple In form, providing that there shall be no collect on delivery" packages shipped in interstate con- merce where fictitious names are used and that the name of the consignor and consignee shall be stated plainly. The provision is designed to eliminate the practice of railroad and express agents acting as agents for liquor houses.
 There were numerous bills before the subcommittee dealing with every phase of the question and particularly they sought to give to state the right to control liquor shipments the moment they entered the border of the state. Temperance organizations all over the country desired this feat ure to be incorporated in the bill so as 10 give the widest latitude to state In exercising its police powers. All of the bills before the subcommittee were declared unconstitutional by a vote of to g. A vote was later had on the bills by the full committee, and they were declared unconstitutional by vote of ' to 5.
 The bill agreed upon eliminates the features that are believed to endanger a constitutional test In reporting 1t to the senate, Senator Knox will per feet it's phraseology. The report on the bill will be unanimous. At the time the minority of the committee believes that certain other features intended to broaden the scope of the measure should be enacted and 1t was agreed that the votes of all of the members of the committee should be Incorporated in the report to the sen ate. The submission to the senate of the views of the minority will transfer the whole matter to the senate floor, with excellent prospects of renewed fight there for what is termed a broad states right" bill.

LISBON IN STATE OF TERROR.
Streets of the City Swarming With
 Cavalry and Infantry.

Lisbon, Apr 8.-The excitement
 caused by the election rioting in this
 city Sunday evening in which seven
 persons were killed and 100 wounded,
 has by no means subsided. There is
 considerable consternation in govern
 ment circles and the utmost precau-
 tions are being observed. The streets swarm with troops. Regiments of in
 fantry and batteries of artillery hoii
 Canoes square and Pedro square. The
 streets are patrolled by cavalry, and
 mounted lancers are massed at street corners. Bernardino Merchado, the
 Republican leader, has called on the civil government to withdraw the troops from the street.
 Two battalions of infantry and two companies of light cavalry were hur- riedly ordered into Lisbon Tuesday morning to reinforce the local garri- son.
 The city was in more or less of a state of terror all Monday night. Bands of men roamed through the lower quarters and there was consid- erable plundering in the early morn ing hours. The troops were on the
 trail of the marauders and early Tuesday morning succeeded in dis-
 persing them and driving them into hiding.

TURNED TO THE WALL.
Gov. Pindall Removes Jeff Davis Por trait From Place of Honor in Exc
 cutive Offices.

Little Rock, April 7.-The large oil painting of Jeff Davis no longer hangs in the private office of the governor of Arkansas. In its stead hangs the oil painting of Gov. Rector, who guided the ship of state through the stormy scenes of the Civil war, and the likeness of Gov. Davis has been releg gated to the outer office.
 There may aud there may not be any significance attaching to this fact. But Gov. Pindall, when asked regarding the change, said Gov. Rector's picture is re- stored to the place of honor, where it rightly belongs. Gov. Plndall did not reter to the position now occupied by the picture of Gov. Davis, but the inference was very clear to all who noted that it has been moved from private office ot his excellencv, to that of Secre- tary Paul Little.
 The fight in the last campaign was very bitter between Gov. Davis and Gov. Pindall, for the control of Eastern Arkansas. The fact that Gov. Pin lall has the appointing of eight members of the St. Francis Levee Board, in Eastern Arkansas this month, gave him the whip hand in tha, section of the state and from all reports, the youthful governor did not fail to use it to advantage. The victory of Hon. George w. Donaghey of Conway was vic tory for Gov. Pindall and his friends are jubilant over this fact. The change in the position of the two pictures named above iddi- cates to many that Gov. Pindall considers Gov. Davis down and out ia Arkansas politics.
