UNIVERSITY WIRELESS STATION
Communication With all Stations in the U. $.
 Expected and with Ships at Sea.

To possess a wireless station and be in touch with the four corners of the United States and many for eign points by means of wireless telegraphy, is novel distinction that Arkansas University will enjoy in the near future if the plans of two of her young electricians are successful. This distinction is not only novel one. but most credit able one for any institution to en- joy, and the fact that it is being de- veloped by two young men, the products of the electrical engineer ing department, speaks volumns for the standard of work being done at Arkansas, and it will unveil to the country more evidence of the rank Arkansas demands among her sis ter institutions in giving to the world men who do things.
 The wireless station is being erected by Paul L. Mardis and F. s. White, post graduates. The areal is now completed, the wires running from the power room of the engineering hall to the South tow CT of the main building and thence to the north tower. The standard government receiver will be used which is wound to receive vibrations for distance of from five to eight thousand miles. This receiver is valued bt cluse it permits the re- ceiving of words directly. The young promoters of the station are building their own tuning coils and condensers in the electrical labora- tory. With the amount of power at their disposal it is believed that the University station will be able to communicate to all parts of the United States and even with ships at sea. This will depend greatly upon the success that the operators have in tuning their apparatus here to correspond with that of the other stations. As the various stations have their private wave lengths it will necessitate much expermental, however with the modern apparatus that will be used no little success is expected. University Weekly.

Rice Industry Increasing.

Between 1899 and 1909 the amount of capital invested in es- tablishments for cleaning and poll ishing rice in this country, accord ing to the census, increased from $2.6Ol.OOO to $15.54z 900. and the value of their. products from $8,z24.OOO to $22.5Z1.OOO. The increase in this industry has come with the expansion of rice-growing in Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas in the past decade, reflected in the fact that the combined milling in those three States in 1909 was oZ per cent. of the total quantity of rice cleaned in the United States.

Sunday School Association Meets.

Meetings of the Lapile Township Sunday School Association were held in the Union church here on Saturday night and Sunday after noon. The meeting Saturday night was presided over by the president, Prof. U. c. Gregg. of Strong, who explained the workings of the as- sociation and the object. which is. the establishment of Sunday school in every school district in Laple township. Geo. w. Mason. of Fl Dorado. delivered the address of the evening on the Methods of the Sunday School which proved very interesting and should have been enjoyed by a larger number of citizens than were present. The Sunday afternoon meeting was pre- sided over by Rev J. l.. King, pas tor of the Baptist church who made an interesting and instructive talk. Geo. w. Mason again accomplished much for the cause by a strong talk on the Needs of the Sunday School" Those in attendance from out of town were Rev. J. L. King, Junction City; Geo. w. Mason, Fl Dorado; Mrs. H. A. Nelson. Prof. U. c. Gregg and wife and daughter, Miss Imogene, Strong; and Miss Bolding, Bolding. We feel that a greater enthusiasm among our Sun day school workers will result from these meetings and the attendance of this service of the churhes here largely increased.

PRODUCE MORE CORN PEA ACRE
Commissioner of Agriculture Phillips Tell How il Can and ShoaId De Done.

Last year there were 1884. COG acres planted to corn in Arkansas, The average yield was twenty-foui bushels. We can easily raise this average to fifty bushels by proper seed selection and better methods of cultivation. Also by planting our corn on better land than we used for this purpose last year.
 Land that will only produce if teen bushels of corn per acre should not be planted to corn, but should be planted in cow-peas, peanuts, soy-beans or some other legumin- ous, nitrogen-bearing plant.
 If you only have a few acres of good land that you can use for corn, plant this and by giving it the pro- per attention make more than you would on a larger acreage with slip shod methods of cultivation.
 Land that is to be planted to corn should be well-fHed with humus or decayng organic matter If the land is deficient in plant food, use good fertilizer containing the needed plant food. A 5-6-3 ferti- lizer is usually best suited for corn in this State.
 But good land and fertilizer will not result in any profit to us unless we have a well prepared seed-bed, and devote some attention to seed selection and cultivation. We should more than half make our corn crop before we plant it. liar row once thoroughly after planting and before the corn is up.
 The preparation of the seed bed is one of the most important essen tials in securing a profitable corn
The Huttig news., 1911-03-25


 Special attention should also be given to seed selection. Our poor yielde are due in many instances to poor seed more than any other one thing. If seed corn must be bought we should insist on getting the seed in the ear. Then will we at least have the advantage of knowing something of the formation and characteristics of the parent ear. We should never select seed from the crib in a hap-hazard manner, and to successfully raise corn we will have to devote more attention to seed selection in the field from the stock, and from the individual ear after field selection has been made, for grain formation, etc. We should also test our seed corn for germination by planting few grains from each ear in a test-box numbering the ears to find those of poor germinating quality as well as those which show strong ger mination Of course. before plant ing. all weak ears should be dis carded and only the strong ears should be used.
 Now is the time to b*gin to think about planting corn and ana writ ing this article to call attention to a few matters of vital importance to those who hope to grow corn. This department will gladly CO., operate with you.
