together for sport, recreation or
serious discussion would have
been worth a hundred times
more than all possible outlay.
While it is pro6tless to regret
lost opportunities yet they
should teach us present duties.
The opportunity for doing the
wise thing always exists.
The school grounds should
be ample enough to provide for
a good grove planted so as to
secure protection, play ground
large enough for all school
spots, generous lawn and a
school garden.
A tract of two acres is not too
large for the consolidated
schools while one acre is al
most too small for any school.
A south or east front offers
advantages, particularly in the
matter of planting for protec
ton. It is very important to
have belt of trees along the
north and also on the west if
possible. A protection against
the south winds at certain times
of the year is also likely to be
appreciated.
The shelter belt is the most
feature and as it
should endure for generations
it's planting is matter of seri.
ous consideration. Simply to
rip up the soil and thrust in an
aggregation of cotton woods
will not do. What is needed is
a substantial belt of dense
growing, long lived trees. The
varieties will depend somewhat
upon the locality. We have
found the native ash suited to
all locations. Its rate of growth
will depend upon the amount
of moisture it receives and this
in turn will depend upon culti-
vation and mulching. With us
the growth is from one and a
half to two feet a year. Trees
thirty and forty feet high are

is without a mixture of other
varieties. For general purposes
it should be planted about four
feet apart. The one other most
valuable tree for general plant

by Prof. Waldron was the ash.
Its wood is more valuable than
the white willow but it does
not mature at 30 early period.
Ash trees grown at the Expert
mental Station are now SO feet

years old. Prof. Waldron told
of many other varieties of trees
and their value and manner of
cultivation, he also gave in val
liable information on the plant.

No state needs trees more than
ours. The question of "Forest-

questions of wood and water,
wood constituting one of our
most indispensable resources,
and water upon which largely
depends the success of agricul.

In soil fairly moist, such as
one finds in many parts of the
state, the elm makes a more
rapid growth but is not so re-

On the inner side trees more

NEGROES STEAL FEED
 FOR THEIR STOCK

After using the horse feed of Ralph Robinson, who conducts a livery stable on West ,Barraque street, for some time to feed their stock. Babe Sim and William Patterson. two ne- groes, were arrested yesterday morn ing by City Detective Dave Glover and placed in jail, Sim was en- plcyed to do the night work at the livery stable and Patterson was his confederate in stealing the feed. The work of the two negroes in making away with the feed from the stable is believed to have been going on for several months. during which time much has been consumed.
 MT. Robinson suspicioned Sim when he detected that small amount of his feed had been stolen. He sent for Detective Glover and told him of the
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1910-06-22

case. The officer followed Sim to his home where he found some feed stor- ed there. He arrsted the negro, who afterwards made a confession of the thefts and implicated Patterson. Pat terson was later arrested and confes- sed to stealing the feed also and had a large quantity stored at his home.
 The work of the thieves was very systematic. The evidence shows that Patterson would, after finishing his work at night, drive by the stable where together they would load the feed on Pattersons wagon and he would drive away. Sim would see him after his work and the feed would be divided. The thefts includ- ed grain and hay. They admitted while on their way to jail that they had been feeding several head Of stock.
