WEEKLY LETTER
FROM JNO. Il. PAGE
COMMISSIONER OF AGRI-
CULTURE.
SAYSRAISE MOREFEEDSTUFF
AS Means of Improving Con-
ditions--QueStions Figures
Sent Out

The apparent deficiency in
the farming plans n Ar
kansas is in the raising of corn,
grains, hays and forage for live
stock, and the raising of live
stock to consume it. l have
treated this subject in so many
letters that another along this
line would seem like an unneces-
sary one, but the matter is so
important at this time l will
mention it again. The greatest
shortage is in the hay and forage
crop. The census of 1910 shows
that Arkansas farmers produced
1,021,158 tons Of grain suitable
for stock feed, and the oil mills
produced 2G3,064 tons of cotton
seed meal and hulls, from cotton
seed grown IN Arkansas, making
a total Of 1854, 222 tons of dry
feed for stock.
At that time we had 1885, 600
head Of live stock. With the long
season and accounting
for the sale and slaughter and
meat producing stock, there was
feed produced to care for
all the stock, except the hay and
forage. However, there was a
great shortage of hay. For that
year Arkansas produced 461, 817
tons of hay and forage. Had
there been plenty of hay in pro
portion there would have been

SCHOOL PATRONS

MISS REICHARDT, LITTLE
ROCK
ADDRESSES LOCAL PATRONS
Makes Splendid Talk On
Work of School Improve
ment Association

Miss Eva Peichardt of Little
Rock, who is associated with
Supt. Geo. B. Cook in education
al work in Arkansas, lectured at
the High School auditorium in
this city Monday night on the
work of the School Improvement
Association IN the state. Miss
Reichardt made a splendid talk
which was heard by an appre-
ciative audience.
After the close of Miss Reich
ardt's lecture a School Improve
ment Association was organized
among the ladies of the town
and vicinity, and the following
officers elected: Mrs. T. Y.
Williams, president; Mrs. J. E.
Gold, vice pres. Miss Rosa
Wallace, md vice pres; Mrs.
o. S. Webb, secretary; Mr.. l..
E. Wolff, treasurer; Mrs. w. H.
Etter, press correspondent.
In her talk on school improve
ment work, Miss Reichardt cited
numerous instances of wonderful
Improvements made in the
schools over the state, as a result
of the work done by this organ
ization. She put especial stress
on the importance of observing
all the laws of sanitation in the
schools, and on the good results
obtained; also on the good re-
suits obtained from Identifying.
and improving the school grounds
and buildings, and in this con-
nection Miss Reichardt compli-
mented the directors and pa
irons of the Washington High
School on their handsome new
building
Miss Reichardt has spent a
number Of years in an effort to inn
prove the condition of the public
schools over the state, and her
work has resulted in great good,
as she is especially fitted for
this field, and takes great pride
in the work.
After leaving here Miss Reich
ardt went to Fit. Smith where she
will assist in the diversified farm
ing campaign now being carried
on in that part of the state.
In discussing her qualifications
for diversified farming work,
Miss Reichardt told an amusing
experience of her own in making
a garden last year: she prepar-
ed a small plot of ground and
purchased seed at an expense of
something over $500, and after
cultivating her garden and sell
ing the crop, the total net result
was twenty cents worth of rad
ishes sold. But she seems to
have been about as well qualified
for diversified farming as a GER
tain farm demonstration mention
ed by one of the members of our
quorum court in explaining his
reason for voting against an ap-
preparation for farm demonstra-
ton work. He said when the
farm demonstration called on him
he was shown a field of cotton,
and good cotton at that, but OBJ
jected to it on the ground that it
was mixed cotton, ard TO prove
it was mixed called the owner 5

the blooms were red and others

we're teaching farmers, he was

at home stations, mostly on border
duty and at the large government

at Galveston and Texas City, while
there are scattered along the Texas
border many companies of infantry
and cavalry. At Fort Sam Houston,
the second largest army post In the
United States there is !. brigade of
the Texas National Guard, ready at

In case of actual warfare approx

Saw Madero Shot Down.

The fact that his brother, Harold
E. Stickney, is gunner on the Louis
lana, stationed at Vera Cruz, makes
the Mexican trouble unusually inter-
esting to Fire Chief Stickney of Vir-
ginia. He has not heard from his
brother since the battleship left Nor
folk. Gunner Stickney is familiar
with conditions in Mexico having been
stationed there at the time Madero
was shot. He was one of IL Ameri-
cans who were within 100 feet of
Madero when the Mexican was exc
cuted. Mr.. Stickney smiles at the re-
port that Madero was shot in the
back as he was entering his carriage.
In letter to Chief Stickney he told
of Madero's execution. "Madero was
one of the bravest men I ever saw"
he writes. "He walked in front of
the guns like a soldier, barred his chest
pointed to his heart, shouted Viva
| Mexico and went to his death like
a hero"
