AGRICULTURAL
 PROGRESS
Much Good Has been done Through Practical Educaticn and Demon
 stration.

The general acceptance in ! Arkansas of value of practical ag- ricultural education and demon stration is being evidenced in many ways.
 The four thousand farms upon which demonstration crops were grown in 1909 under the direction of State Agent J A. Evans of the U. $. Department of Agriculture and his twenty seven local agents produced a yield of from fifty per cent to over two hundred per cent above adjacent crops of the same class.
 The contest affidavits of the Boys Corn Club showed that a yield as high as one hundred and eight bushels of corn to the acre had been produced in 1909.
 The Farmers Institute work by the College of Agriculture, under direction of Prof. Geo. A. Cole, is doing much to popularize specific agricultural training.
 The annual Farmers Institute at the University of Arkansas, January f to 15, 1910, is free to Arkansas farmers. A coarse of great interest has been prepared and the attendance promises to be much larger than ever before.
 The last legislature passed an Act providing that Elementary Agriculture and Horticulture be added to the Common School Course of study in March 1910, also, the appropriation of S160, ,000 for the establishment of four Agricultural High School.
 The U. s. Department of Ag- riculture, through Mr. J. A. Evans, Shreveport, La. now offer to pay $500 per year of the ex- penses of maintaining an agent. m addition to supervi sing the work, in any county in any State that will take up Farm Demon stration work.
 Although this offer has only been made recently and has been scarcely presented, the fol lowing counties have accepted the proposition; Craighead. Greene, Independence, Jackson. Lawrence, Lee, Lonoke, St. Francis and Van Buren. In Faulkner and Jefferson where farm demonstration work has al ready been tried, the work will be continued through the coming year.

The U. $. Department has en- gagged H S Mobley as organizer of Boys Corn Clubs and School Extension work, and county and district Corn Club Organizations are being rapidly effected. This campaign contemplates an early organization of every county and the enrolment of 9, ,000 boys in the corn growing contests, through the active work of Mr. Mobley cooperating with the College of Agriculture and the Farm Demonstration Agents, and the State Committee of the Boys Corn Clubs State Superin- tendent Geo. B Cook. Commis- sioner of Agriculture Guy B Tucker, Professor of Agricul- ture Rufus J Nelson and J A Evans.
 The Boys Corn Clubs are SC curing the hearty support of the Farmers Union, the congress- men and county officials, the commercial organizations. the school teachers, merchants and citizens generally.
 These are some of the tang ible facts indicating the wide spread awakening in this state the most practical and comfort producing advancement for the entire citizenship and especially for the farmer who constitutes nearly ninety per cent of our citizenship.

A LINCOLN STORY

Lincoln stories are common,
and the tellers OF them are not as
accurate in ascertaining theirgenuine-
ness as they are prolific in producing
them: The following tale comes
from writer in the Chicago Journal,
and may or may not be a real
Lincoln. 1t is, in any event, =
good story. \
Two farm hands, Lincoln used to
say, were set upon by a hugh bull
while crossing a rocky field. One
manage to gain tree. The other
took refuge in hole sn the tree that
proved to have an exit in the rear.
The man who had chosen the hole
was no sooner in at one end than he
was out at the other. with below
the made for him. He turned and
again shot like lightning through the
hole. The bull cnce bore down upon
him, and once more he was in and
out of his hole.
This strange pursuit kept up tor
some minutes. At first it mystifed
the farm-hand up in the tree Then
it angered him.
Hey" he shouted, you idiot,
Why don't you stay in the hole::''
The bull was dadhing from one end
Ofthe hole to the other at great speed,
and the man was bobbing in and out
desperately. He heard, however,
his comrades shout and found time
before his next briefdisappearance to
shout back to him:
idiot yerself! There's bear in
the hole!!''
