value of every piece of land in the
state, on account of the great amount
of time, as well as expense, of Sc
curing this information. Until the
commissioners can find some less ex-
pensive way of securing the data, it
will spend the time in the offices here,
figuring upon the, returns recently
submitted by the various counties. The
commissioners found it would take
each of them several weeks on sin
gle county, which would require year
to cover the entire state. They are
convinced this information must be
secured before the state can put all
property upon an equitable tax basis,
but they are also convinced there is
some cheaper way of getting it than
by devotlng so many weeks of valua-
BILE time to the task.

Invitation of a committee of citizens
of Danville, Governor Donaghey is to-
day delivering political speech there
in the interest of his candidacy for re-

that Governor Donaghey was not Civ

his record as governor, particularly
upon his dealings with the state insti-

Little Rock, Jan. 26.-So little had
been said by the prohibitionists re-
Gently that many were of the opinion
the campaign along this line in the
coming primaries and the work in the
legislature would be a tame affair.
A few moments spent in the annual
meeting of the Anti-Saloon League
yesterday was sufficient to convince
the most ardent local optionists that
the fight had never commenced, and
something will be turned up before the
end of the campaign. Submssionists
are as scarce about the convention as
the proverbial hens teeth. Every
thing is for statewide prohibition,
and the convention will fight it out on
that line. All the old officers, George
Thornburgh, president; R. c. Powell,
vice president, and DR.. j. H. Estes
were reelected yesterday afternoon.
The secretary, in his annual report,
advocated the revival of the Search
light, the state organ of the prohibi-
tion party, but this started whole
lot of discussion as to whether a press
committee could not do the work bet
ter, and the whole matter was left
to the executive committee 1t was
decided to fight the election of wet
senators in dry districts, and then
work for statewide legislation. DR..
G. W. Young of Kentucky, assistant
superintendent of the national order,
delivered an address before the CON
vention yesterday afternoon.

COMPLETE SURVEY
OF NORMAL farm
TO DRAIN FORTY ACRES
EXPERIMENTAL FARM AT NOR
NAL BEING PREPARED
FOR CULTIVATION.

Engineer F. F. Shafer of the divis-
ion or farm drainage in the United
States department OF agriculture, has
practically completed his work of sur
veying the 40-acre tract which will be
uesd as model farm by the State
Normal School, and will forward his
report to his chief at Washington in
a few days. Mr.. Shafer, who came
here at the solicitation of Prof. w. }.
Sowder of the chair of agriculture in
the Normal, has been making a min
ute study of the soil on the Normal
farm with regard especially to the
best methods of drainage. Lying be-
tween two ridges, on one of which the
Normal building is situated, the land
is relatively low, and before it can be
successfully cultivated, most of it will
have to be drained.
Prof. Sowder states that it has been
practically decided to use the regular
unglazed farm tile for this purpose
and about two carloads will be requir-
ed. The lateral tile drains will be
placed 80 feet apart, 3-inch tiling be-
ing used for these, while for the main
drain an S-inch tiling will be employ
ed.
The estimated cost of draining the
40 acres will be about $780, This
will be paid for out of the Peabody
appropriation of $4,000 to the Normal
agricultural department, which was
announced some time ago. The work
of Mr.. Shafer is borne by the United
States government without expense
to the Normal A large model barn,
the plans for which are being drawn,
will be constructed out of the Pea
body fund, and Prof. Sowder hopes
to get things in readiness to raise
crops on the land during the coming
season.
1t is expected that the county and
city will join in improving, under
scientific ulTeclloil, tHe Iodu luiiiiiilS
on the south side of the Normal cam
pus. Besides being valuable as an
object lesson to the town and county
and for demonstration purposes to the
students, the road would be material
value, as it would afford pleasant
drive for people of the city and, as it
leads directly to the county farm,
would be of much service to the
county.
