NO ROOM FOR MUD-SLINGING

The Asheboro Courier intimates
that the North Carolina Senator
ial campaign has already reached
the mud-slinging stage in some
sections. This is to be regretted.
The writer personally knows all
four candidates Simmons,
Aycock, Kitchin, and Clark
and knows, as all their acquaint-
ances know, that all four are
clean in life and speech, free
from any habit of dissipation or
incompetence. and free. too, from
faint of scandal or corruption.
Any charge against the moral
character of any one of them
may be promptly branded as false
and vicious, and any snch at
tempt at mud singing should re-
act on those who attempt it.
We have clean candidates; let us
have a clean campaign. The

ed, as the water which comes
from the tank and is forced
through the brance pipe is very
hot, and in a short time would
destroy the ordinary rubber hose.
The connection is placed on the
branch pipe between the boiler
check and injector. The idea is
that when an engine reaches the
scene of a fire in the yards a
switchman is to jerk the hose
from the reel and attach it to the
coupling leading from the branch
pipe, and the engineer is to start
the injector, while the fireman
goes out on the running board
and opens the valve in the branch
pipe leading to the boiler check.
The stream of water can then be
turned ON the conflagration.
Mr.. Barton, who designed the
apparatus, was for number of
years General Inspector of the
St. Louis Fire Prevention Bureau
and says that many disastrous
fires in the railroad yards are
caused by the inability of the
City fire engines to get close to
the scene, whereas railroad loco
motives can reach the scene in
the shortest possible time by
running over the roads own
tracks.
The cost of the apparatus in
stalled will be 500, and by
it's use every locomotive will be
made a fire fighting engine.

RAIL ROAD NEWS

w. R. Borton, Fire Prevention
Inspector of the Missouri Pacific
Iron Mountain has studied out a
fire fighting apparatus which can
be attached to railroad locomo-
tives and effectively used in pre-.
venting conflagrations on the
tracks. A test of the appliance
was recently made at the Ewing
Avenue Shops of the Missouri
Pacific in st. Louis, which was
witnessed by Assistant Chief
John F. Barry Of the St. Louis
Fire Department and Chief James
[. O'Donnel of the St. Louis
Underwriters Salvage Corps.
1t was demonstrated that astream
of water could be thrown 55 feet
in the air with 2OOlbs. of steam
pressure on a locomotive. In a
letter to Acting General Manager
j. V. Higgins of the Missouri
Pacific Mountain, Messers,
Barry and O'Donnell endorsed
the appliance so strongly that it
has been decided to equip all
yard engines on the entire System
and some of the road locomotives
with it.
The tonks of the large yard
engines hold 5000 gallons of
water. Barton's plan is to carry
so TT. of IA inch steam hose on

A farmer came into our office
the other day who is raising
nothing but hay and hogs this
year. He has 100 acres in hay
from which he will get from 200
to $50 tons, an average of from
2 to 2 IL tons to the acre. and he
is already selling part of the crop
at $50 a ton. In other words,
he is getting as much off his
land as he would get for cotton,

es, is only one-fourth as much

Last year l. 144 corn fields and
l, 1872 cotton fields were cultivated
in Arkansas under instructions
of the government demonstration
agents. The corn averaged 36
bushelt and the cotton 9l5 per
acre, while the state at large av-
eraged "a bushels of corn and 525
pounds of cotton. Considering
that many of these demonstrate
ion farms were purposely placed
on the poorest land, to show how
it could be made more product
i've of better crops. the showing
is very gratifying. If every acre
of corn and cotton had made as
full yield as the demonstration
acres, the farmers of Arkansas
i would have received several mil
lion dollars more for their crop.
This is the kind of work that
counts, and the kind that is nee
essary to bring Arkansas to the
front as an agricultural state.

Lnte Advances.
Late in the week there was firmer
feeling in wheat. and especially toward
the close, when prices advanced In a
somewhat striking fashion. offerings
suddenly became light while sellers
for the decline were displaying anx-
iety to cover, prompted mainly by
stronger cables and reports that war
had been declared between Italy and
Turkey. There having been too much
unanimity on the bear side. 1t was nat
ural that such influences should create
nervousness among short sellers, al
though many conservative merchants

no radical change in the domestic sit

sonable, while receipts were fully
equal to home requ' rements, especially
at Minneapolis, where they were 2Airly
large, but those embraced moderate
quantities of hard winter 1t was re-
ported that there will be further i'm
portant shipments from the Southwest
to the Northwest, because of the poor
quality of much of the new spring
wheat. There has been an excess Of
moisture in the Canadian Northwest,
and further complaints were received
from Winnipeg respecting unsatisfao-
tory grading. An interesting and sig
nlhcant feature was the purchase of
$4,000 bushels OF hard wheat IN KAN
sas City for shipment to California,
with other orders in the market for
fairly large lots.
Irregular Movement in Corn.
The corn markets were dull and mar
row early in the week. There Was a
scarcity of important orders, and con-
sequently the fluctuations were incon.
sequential, although at times there was
weaker drift, which was ascribed
CHIEFLY to mild weather West and re-
ports that farmers had become more
willing TO sell both cash and futures.
subsequently there was greater stead
