The shops Of the Morgantown and

distance above Morgantown, were to

blaze was discovered about 1880
O'clock. and had made considerable
headway before being discovered. The

only on the mountain lmep Of the
Utilitie Company, and the fire hose
gave only a suggestion Of real pres.
sure and volume in fighting fame.
The building was Of cheap construc.
'tlon and was an easy prey for the
flames, which are said to have orlgi.
mated from an imperfect electric con.
nectlon in the room used by the men
OF the shops as a lavatory. The blaze
spread rapidly, and although the re-
sponse to the call for fire was quickly
given. there was little hope of saving
any part OF the bulldlngg. SSs "a q;
The office and the store, about fifty
feet from the shops. however, were
saved, and as the flames died down
last night were still protected with a
play Of streams Of water. 7

and It 4 said to be covered BY lnsur.

adjusted and all Of the details Of; the

The fire occurred between Morgan.
town and the switch leading to the
shops. The tin mill train was Just due
to leave when the flames burst out.
As a consequence, the train was not
ablegto make its regular trip.
The engines and cars in the shops,
with the exception of;three freight cars
undergoing. repairs. were run out Of
danger.
A string Of five live and two dead
engines and tenders stood on the track

will be no cessation in the ordinary
operations Of the road.

ANTI-HOCCHOLERAI
 SERUMFORA ALL
Arkansas College Of Agriculture Manufactures the serum and Will Furnish It to Hog
 RaiSrs at Cost.

By ]. F. Stanford, Veterinarian of Arkansas College of Agriculture.
 The farmers and hog raisers of the state of Arkansas are more or less informed in regard to the re- cent discovery of q practical and successful method of yaccinating hogs against cholera.
 The veterinarian of the Arkansas College of Agriculture, after suc- ceeding in exciting the swine breeders of the state in their in terest, has, through their assistance, procured the passage of an act by our last general assembly which provides for the manufacture of anti-hog cholera serum by the vet erinarian of the Arkansas College of Agriculture and the bill further provides for the selling of this se- rum and all instruments necessary for it's administration at actual cost to the farmers and hog raisers of the state.
 The object of this article at this thine is to notify the citizens ol the state that this department now has on hand anti-hog cholera se- rum ready for distribution, as pro- vided for in Senate bill No. 227 (p A. Rodgers.) The bill referred to became law on the 90th of June 1911, and, in order to have this serum on hand by this time, has caused much hard work on the part of the veterinarian. since he had tC start from the bottom in the under taking of this valuable work.
 Since the veterinary department of the State Agricultural College now has the serum to sell at cost 60 cents per hundred pounds liys weight, it is desired that all provide themselves with this serum and al necessary instruments for it's ad- min;stration ir time Co save theil hogs. When hog cholera is raging in your neighborhood you should lose no time in sending your order and be prepared to deal with ths disease before 1t has gained a foot hold on your herd. In the lasI three weeks we have sent out se- rum to farmers who, after receiving the serum. have notified us thai their hogs were all dead or sick or the arrival of the serum and re- quested the department to refund In all of these cases tho orders were promptly filled on the receipt Of the order and the arrival of the

the Mississippi river bottoms. Ne| were told that we could not get across the ten miles of black mud to Clayyille on the river bank op- posite Chester. TIL, but having con- iidence in our little Ford to ac- |complish almost anything. we start ed out next morning to do the nm possible" We made the ten mile i ln one hour and were ferried across the Father of Waters to Illinois soil. That night we camped in the edge of a wheatfield some miles southwest of Centralia. The roads here were dry, and in some places dusty. Here WIG seemed to be in the drouth-stricken district. Corn is a total failure, oats poor and wheat fairly good. Up to this time | all crops looked splendid. We saw Jour last cottonfeld soon after en- tering Missouri. Our last days run was from south of Centralia to De- catur-our destination, and it was the only dry day we had on the whole trip. When within about 30 miles of Decatur corn began to look much better, and about De
 catur it is good.
 We rolled into Decatur about 6 | D. m., Saturday, all in fine spirits and good health, the car covered with Arkansas and Missouri mud,
 and the question most asked was
 where did you get that mud2" The Ford engine worked beautl- fully every foot of the way and the
 ear stood the test of every ounce
 the engine would pull numberless
 times. with the single exception of
 the driving shaft, and I believe it
 was defective before starting. We certainly missed the good
 water we were used to at Mena, and
 at some places were bothered with mosquitoes, the absence of which in Mena made it doubly hard. We passed through the oil dis ltrict near Centralia, III. There
 miles of the public highways are sprinkled with crude oil, and are
 therefore dustless, as we'll as mud | less.
 | Our running time was about five Idays, the distance being between six and seven hundred miles. Our lspeedometer giving out on us pre- lvented a correct record of the mileage.
 | Except during or right after a
 heavy rain, the roads, taken as 8 lwhole. would be good all the way l with but few exceptions. On ouI return trip we may go by Kansas City and thence south through l Fort Smith, just to sec some new leountry.
 I We met many tourists on theiI | way south, and each of them said
 To-day is the first rain we have ha1 l the whole trip" All along our triI

 this we enjoyed the trip as whole

TELLS NECESSITY
 OF MORE PASTURE
Commissioner Sloan Shows Ar kansas Farmers How They Can Largely Increase
 Their Profits.

Following is the weekly letter is- sued by Commissioner Sloan of the Department of Agriculture, calling attention especially to the advan- tages of better pastures;
 Tn the soutl, we may ordinarily get two crops each year from most of our land. Yet few of us get them. In fact, few of us really ap- preciate the feet that if our agri- cultural opportunities are greater here than elsewhere, it is mainly because our climate permits the double crop system. We can follow oats by COW peas, the early crop of potatoes may be followed by late crop. peas or crimson clover may be sown in the cotton CT corn. Thus we may build up our soil while utilizing il to the utmost.
 "We need t9 plant more forage crops. If we make the cheapest and best meat. we must have sew eral fields of COW peas, soy beans. peanuts, sweet potatoes. patches of rape and bermuda pastures. We can produce cheaper and better meat here than elsewhere, but we cant do this unless we have plenty of pasture land and plenty of for age crops. We caut produce cheap meat on corn alone.
 This system Uf live stock farm ing will reduce our meat bills, our grocery bills. our fertilizer bills. We shall be able to put aside the proceeds of our cotton sales as so much surplus money. The fertil- fly of our soils will increase and the general prosperity of our peo- pie will increase.
 We should establish a system of permanent pasture. Put the idle acres to work growing forage crops or bermuda. Try bermuda or white clover, bermuda and red top, or bermuda and lespedza. When a piece of land does not give the re- suits it should give, do not turn it out to weeds, but put it in pasture. keep it at work. The soil. like human beings, fares better when 1t is doing some useful work"
