Railroad Aids in Agricultural
Work,

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has for some time been engaged in prac-
tical experiments in the matter of inten-
siye farming, and has thereby rendered a
practical service.to the cause of agricul-
ture. The New York Central has taken
up another phase of the farming situation
by purchasing rundown farms and
redeeming them by scientific and intel.
ligent methods. The number of aband-
oned farms in certain sections of the
country tell pathetic and depressing
story of the movement toward the cities,
andthe failure of the farmer, who should
feed them all, !" to be able to feed him
self.
The redemption of these abandoned
farms and the lesson that would be
taught, by making known the methods
employed in that redemption offer field
for great work, and so does the appli-
cation of the intensive system in making
two blades grow where but one grew be-
fore.
This work must necessarily be. to a
certain extent, both experimental and
expensive. The individual, unless he
has "bug" for fancy farming and very
large means at his command. is not able
to carry out the necessary experiments.
It is highly gratifying, therefore. TO find
these two great railroad systems building
up the waste places along their lines by
carrying forward the new and improved
system of agriculture which scientific
investigation has brought to the front.
The railroads themselves..will reap their
reward, but the great mass of the people
will, after all, be the greater gamers from
this timely and systematic work - Balti

Strikes Loom For Soft Coal Fields


Only immediate increases in wages will
prevent numerous and Widespread strikes
in the bituminons coal mines of the
country, according to action taken at the
special convention of the United Mine
Workers Tuesday, following final disa-
greement and dissolution ofthe joint con
ference Of the Central Competitive Field
The terms proposed by the miners for
the continuation of work after the
expiration of the present agreements on
midnight Thursday will admit of no COM
promise SO far as wages are concerned
On most other questions, however. there
is room for agreement, and the general
trend of opinion among men and en-
Ployers was thatNno long suspension will
result excepkin few fields.
The most threatening aspect over
shadows the Pennsylvania and Illinois
fields. In Pennsylvania there can be no
new contract short of settlement of the
controversy over the new explosive laws
of that State, and in Illinois the old
problem of payment for the services of
shot firers looms up as q possible barrier
to peaceful settlement.

Forest Fires FOR 1909 In Cecil
County.
NUMBEE, s; ACRES BURNED OVER, 78;
ESTIMATED DAMAGE, $23s.

ESTIMATED DAMAGE, $235.
This is the season Of the year when most
of the forest fires occur that result from
brush burning and the clearing up Of, Told
fields. During the past year 20 per cent
Of the forest fires Of which the cause was
known started from careless brush burn
ing. These spring fires are, as rule,
more destructive than those in the
autumn, because the trees in the spring
have come out of the dormant state Of
winter and begun the growth activities OF
another season when the buds and bark
are easily injured.
The state forest fire laws make it a
misdemeanor, punishable by fine and
imprisonment, for any one to allow fire
to escape from his own lands to those of
his neighbor It is, therefore, of the
greatest Importance in the burning of
brush, the firing Of marshes, or in burning
off old fields, that. every precaution be
taken to prevent the spread of the fire
beyond the limits marked. The State
Forest Wardens are authorized to take all
necessary steps to extinguish fires when
they occur, and the local warden should
be notified in every case when fire is
beyond control, in order that prompt
action may be taken. But the best way
to deal with forest fires is to prevent them,
and that can only be done by cooperating
with the state and county officials in the
strict enforcement of our fire laws, which
are ample to deal with any cases that may
arise. The damage from forest fires for
1909, as reported by the forest wardens,
shows the seriousness of this matter.
There were So fires reported, which burn
ed over 23,277 acres Of woodland and
caused damage of $50, 200. This does
not include all the fires that occurred, nor
does it cover the full loss to young growth,
which would add considerably more to the
above estimate. Thirty of the fires re-
ported were extinguished by the forest
wardens and the assistants they employ
ed, at total cost of 1867, which was
paid by the several counties in which the
fires occurred. It would be difficult to
find greater return for so small an
expenditure of public money.

Large Part Of Business District is Swept
Away--Conflagration Starts in Va

The expected at last happeneJ
Saturday might when a large por-
tion of the business center of Fa!-
Ion was laid in ashes.
At 9:45 a fire broke OM in the
rear of the old vacant restaurant
building next door to the postof-
fee.
Three pistol shots gave the first
| alarm, followed few moments Ia
ter by the ringing of the fire bell.
But even by that time the rear of
of the old restaurant, as we'll as
the back part of the postoffice
building seemed mass of flames.
1t only took a moment for any,
one to realize that the entire tier
of buildings in the blocks fronting
on Main street with the exception
of the stone structure of the Will
liams' store was doomed.
With heroic effort men went to
work removing the contents Of
buildings and in a short time Main
street from Williams avenue to
Second street was filled with all
sorts of goods, furniture anr fil-
lures.
Next to the Williams store build
Ing at the corner of Main and
Williams avenue is a vacant lot,
and from there to First street was
solid wooden structures, which
made it impossible to do anythin.,
to stay the on sweep of the flames.
There the first attempt to stay
the progress of the fire was across
First street, where efforts were
made to tear down the Woodliif
building on the corner.
An attempt was made to dyna-
mite the Woodliff building, occu-
pied by the tailor shop on the cor
ner OF First and Main.
The first shot wrecked the build
ing, and then charge of black
powder was touched off which set
the building on fire. Those who
watched carefully said this was no
disadvantage as the structure would
have been in flames in few mia

as back fire.
From First street the fire went
on south, destroyed the Woodliff
buildings. which brought it to tbs

fiilers and Brewers company. Hero
the flames were checked and bv
