NEWS FROM THE
 CAPITAL CITY

Little Rock, March 17-"South Ar
 kansas can raise anything l saw growing along the coast of Texas, where the land costs $500 an acre and then has to be irrigated" states Pres George A. Cole, of the Arkansas Farmers Union who has returned from tour of Texas in company with Pres. lB. F.. Yoakum of the F'ris- co. sThey raise crop of cabbage there, which is now being harvested, and follow it with cotton and sugar cane. South Arkansas will do this, without irrigation, and make a return greater On the investment than will the high priced Texas land. We had a number of meetings with farmers and I learned much of their methods especially that which applies to the raising of cotton and the fight with the boil weevil, but so far as I am concerned, I would not trade Arkan- sas for te whole state of Texas, with the turbulent Mexico thrown in for good measure''

Strike Legislation.

Should there be strike of train men in Arkansas in the future, the railroads of the state will be forced, through Senator Fletcher's will Mo- 23, to employ competent men to ope- rate the trains run during the strike. This bill has been reported favor ably to the House by the Public Ser vice Corporations Committee, after passing the Senate. and is apparent ly sure to pass the House The railroads have made determinfd fight against this bill, on the grounds that it will tie up their trains in case of strike. The trainmen in sist that the railroads are always able to get men to operate their trains even in the most stringent times, but the committee would not have passed Eavorably upon the bill but for the Knowledge that engineers never strike. Should there be strike though, the bill is a powerful argu- ment in favor of the trainmen.

Will Green, the negro who shot and killed John Hamilton, city marshall of Hope about three years ago, anu who was recently captured at Ray mond, Miss, has been placed in the Arkansas penitentiary for safe keep ing. The killing of Hamilton was so apparently without provocation that the people in the vicinity of Hope were greatly incensed over the crime and to prevent there being demon stration against him, Green was car ried to Little Rock and placed in prison. Sheriff Velvin desires the hanging of the negro to be legal, if such Is to be his punishment.

THE FOURTH
Committees all Working
Hard for Celebration

What promises to be the best
time Ely has had for some time
will be the big celebration of the
Fourth of July. Ali the commit
tees appointed by the executive
committee last week are at work
and are accomplishing things that
will be shown up on the big day.
There will be something doing
from the raising of the flag at five
O'Clock in the morning to the end
of the dance at the Turf hall the
next morning. 1t has not as vet
been decided who will have charge
of the dance but in all probabilities
it will be the fire department. An
industrial parade will take place in
the morning from the CITY hall
after which the sports will take
place. A baseball game in the
afternoon at Athletic park between
the Wolvin team of Duluth and the
Ely Fire Department will be a
big feature.

MORE ACTIVITY
Conditions in Steel Market
Better

Since June 1st the average daily
orders received by the United
States Steel corporation haye been
a little larger than the average
daily orders received either in May
or April. This information gives
definite support to the view gener-
ally expressed in the steel trade
circles that conditions have
improved since the price readjust-
ments were made three weeks
ago.
The steel market presents a
more cheerful aspect, reports Iron
Age. The feeling in Pittsburg
is that the worst is over and that,
from this time, improvement is to
be expected. The reduction in
prices appears to have made good.
The volume of new business OF
steel manufacturers has quite coll
siderab1y increased in the last ten
days and the bookings of last week
were larger than those of the pre-
vious week.
"A note of optimism comes from
the great west, where improved
crop prospects and greater willing
ness on the part of the railroads to
buy, have caused a more cheerful
feeling, and in the other parts oi
the country, including the Pitts
burg district, there is less despond-
ency. In some branches of the
iron business, however, notably the
iron ore and lake trade, there are
no indications of Improvement.
1t may be said, with regard to
the position of the Republic Iron
and Steel company in the market,
that, in taking the initiative in re-
ducing steel bar prices, its action
was not hasty, but was taken after
protracted efforts had been made to
prevail upon other bar manufac-

Military.
The Boy Scout movement has secured
secure footing in Gardiner as is evil
denced by the number of young fellows
who have been recruited into a company
and who meet regularly each week for
drill under the instructions of Drillmaster
Plant at the parish house. AS yet only
the first marching movements are being
taught, together with instructions in
military courtesy. The course of instruc-
ton will be broadened as the lads become
efficient, and will in time include all the
requirements laid down in the regula-
tons covering the government of the
Boy Scouts of America. There are now
nearly 50 boys enrolled in the company
with prospects of many more coming in.
The present quarters are not large enough
and plans are on foot to secure a larger
drill room. In a short time officers,
chosen by the boys themselves, will be
elected, and with the coming of spring
field work will be taken up. While teach
ing the boys elementals of military in
struction, the training also requires other
things of them and tends to broaden
their lives and make better lads in every
way. Uniforms and rifles will soon be
secured and then the boys will be ready
to make their appearance in public. Resi-
dents of Gardiner are cordially invited
to attend any drill, held on Tuesday even
ings, and see for themselves just what
the lads are doing. There is plan now
being considered for next summer which
includes tour of duty of several weeks

POULTRY SHORT COURSE AT THE
u. OF M.

: The annual three weeks Short Course
in Poultry Husbandry at the University
of Maine will be held under the auspices
of the Poultry Department of the Col
lege of Agriculture, February LIST to
21st, inclusive, 1911. 1t will be followed
by three days. Poultry Institute, Feb.
ruary 21st, 22nd and 23rd.
The purpose of the short course is to
give information to people who cannot
come to the University for longer perl
cd of time, along lines of incubation,
brooding, breeding, housing, fattening,
killing, marketing and something of the
business problems of the industry. The
work is given chiefly by means of lee
lures and practical demonstrations. The
course offered is in every way a practi-
cal one.
The time before and after the regular
sessions of the class will be given to the
care of breeding stock, incubators,
breeders, etc.
The Poultry Department of the Col
lege of Agriculture Of the University of
Maine was established in the summer of
1908. The poultry plant was especially
planned for Institutional purposes and
all equipment is new and up-to-date. TIL
incubator building is large two and half
story brick and frame structure with
two large incubator rooms, egg room,
oil room, and office on the first floor and
laboratory on the second. The brooder
house joins the incubator building and
both are heated with hot water. Other
buildings are the crate and per fatten-
ing house with killing room attached;
feed house; long laying house of twelve
pens; and fifteen movable colony houses
of different types. Fifteen leading
breeds and varieties of fowls, ducks and
geese are kept for purposes of instruc-
ton and demonstration, while in the
vicinity are several large commercial
poultry plants from which many valuable
lessons may be drawn.
No tuition or fees of any kind are
charged. Very few books are used so
the expense for these is small. Board
and room can be had at $500 to SIS. 90 a
week. The only other expense is for
railroad fare. Accommodations will be
engaged in advance for any who desire.
1t is advisable for those who expect to
come to do this.
The program of the Poultry Institute
will appear later. For further informa-
ton relating to Short course and Insti-
tute, address correspondence to Dr. Leon
s. Merrill, Director of Extension Work,
