State Fair Will do Much to En-
 courage Livestock industry

FIREBUG SHOOTS AT NEGRO

Newport, March BOA large barn on the farm of Mrs. Eliza beth Stephens, about seven miles south of Newport, was burned by an incendiary about 3 o'clock last night, causing a loss of several thousand dollars. A negro, who saw the fire rushed to the barn in an effort to save the stock in 1t and was shot at by incendiary, who then fled. Sheriff Neal was asked to send bloodhounds to the scene, but Jackson county has no hounds. Officers are searching for the in- cendiary.
 The loss to Mrs. Stephens Is about S2,500, as the barn was a very large one and was recently repaired. k. L. Conditt, the lessee of the place, was the heavier loser. He lost II head of horses and mules, 13 head of cattle and car load of hay, 1,500 bushel of corn and a number of farming imple- mentS.

ARKANSAS FARMERS UNION

The Farmers Union in this state, under the leadership of President George A. Cole. is devoting itself to drainage, good roads and the improvement of our agriculture.
 The farmers are in such big majority in Arkansas that the state will be fortunate to have them put their shoulders to the wheel for good and useful works like drain ing wet lands, building good roads and making agricultural education available to all who may want to learn to be scientific farmers.

in automobiles and a special train to
get the scalps Of our team, and they
succeeded The lola boys were &C
companied by about l5C Iolians. They
with the Cnanute crowd kept things
lively during the game. The lola
team is composed of spleadid set Of
young men and they played fair and
honest game. The two teams were
well matched and 1t was any body's
game to the last minute.
The score closed 20 to 30 in favor of
lola. Our boys beat the lola boys last
year so honors are even. We are al
ways glad to have the lola folks with
Us, even though they do sometimes
carry away the Donors.

Man Saw Lincoln

Several Of the papers are trottiug
out men who saw Lincoln.
Now comes w. H. Geer Of Rest and
states that during '62 regiment was
raised In and about Clinton, Illinois,
his home, and FASTENED direct to
Washington to defend the city against
the threatened attack of Lee and
Jackson.
Mr.. Geer joined this regiment ard
was stationed in and around Washing
ton for four months. He frequently
saw Lincoln around among the boys
talking, heard him make a speech and
saw him when he was reviewing the
troops. He likewise knew him before
the war and heard him In lawsuits.
Lincoln used to ride over to his
locality horseback when he had q
case there, carrying his books 10 an
old pair of saddlebags. Mr.. Geer says
standard joke on Lincoln, during
his debate with Douglass was, that
he never carried a handkerchief but
used his coatsleeVe instead.

Reports from this ard other states
10 the corn belt, ana that means the
hog producing states, seem TO be prac-
tically unanimous 10 their agreement
that there will be scarcity of brood
sows for 1910. Unquestionably this is
true locally il not generally and the
reasons are well understood. This is
a condition and not theory which
confronts US but it is an opportunity
for the breeder and the farmer. 1t
hardly seems possible to consider SER
lous farming operations without the
hog as very potent and profitable
factor and tue man who reads the
signs Of the times Alright is he who
has provided his farm with an ample
number of brood sows or who will do
so at once. Sales of bred sows of all
breeds are row being held all over the
country and the prices realized are
very reasonable. A small investment
in bred sows of your chosen breed is
sure to result in big. interest in the
money, provided they are properly
cared for and no accidents occur.

A Hens Devotion.

One ofteL hears IL said that there
Ia no animal more stupid than hen.
la vindicatlon Of the much-maligued
domestic fowl, it seems but fair to
relate true story If sa acious aud
effectionate heo.
On farm IN Nova Scotia there
once lived Il dear old lady who was
blinc. She had love for all animals,
particularly for the hens which were
faithfully fed by her hand. Ooe tiny
hen became exceedingly fond of its
aged mistress. following her about
the yard as devotedly as would the
household cat.
When the old lady fell i'll, 1t was
noticed by the family that little Mrs
Hen was not so lively az of yOre.
Evidently she missed the kind hand
that had been In the habit of feeding
her, aud the gentle voice that has
softly called, "chuck, chuck, CHUCK"
Que day the sick woman in
fumbling among the bedclethes came
liz contact with an egg, and called
the attention OF the family to the
fact. The mystery was solved next
day wien the little hen was seen to
enter the doorway, weud her way to
the old lady's sick room, and perch
upon the bed. The little feathertd
friend paid visit to her mistress
every day, leaving as token Of love
fresh egg to tempt the failing
appetite Of the invalid.
The faithful hen seemed to have
laG an intuition when the Death
Angel visited the home and bore
away her beloved frleLd, for never
again did she cross the threshold of
the farmhouse, and shortly after the
decease of her blind mistress she
pined and died, apparently of
broken heart.-Our Dumb Animals.
