subject as TO touch on Col. Theodore

A Family Mix.

In the early part of the last cen tury there lived in an old New Eng land town a Mir. Church, who, in the course of his pilgrimage through this vale of tears. was bereft of four wives. all of whom were buried in the same lot. In his old age it became necessary to remove the bodies to a new cemetery. This melancholy task the much bereaved widower undertook himself, but in the process the bones of the la mented quartette became hope lessly mixed. Priding himself on possession of a New England con- science. MT. Church would not. un- der the painful circumstances. per- nit the use of the original head stones, but procured new ones. one of which bore the following inscrip- tion: Here lies Hannah Church and probably portion of Emily" {" Another: Sacred to the memory of Emily Church, who seems to be mixed with Matilda Then fol- lowed these lines:
 Stranger. pause and drop a tear. For Emily Church lies buried here.

Spending Money for Noble Ends.

The Rockefeller institute for medical research has been further enriched by the oil magnate, and now has the interest of twelve and half millions with which to con duct it's investigations. Inasmuch as every other e@-.s to compel Rockefeller to return to the people the wealth that he secured through mo" opolistic methods has failed, perhaps it is just as well that some of his money be employed in this way. For we can imagine nomore effective way to aid humanity than | in deyotiag money in fighting and banishing disease. Insofar as this money is devoted to this purpose it is accomplishing wonderful work. He have long held in the highest esteem those who were able to dry up the tears of the orphan and widow, but still nobler deed is that of lessening the chance that those tears will flow. Disease and death are the two things which humanity fears most. Even pow erty wears a forbidding frown, be- cause it can be vanquished by in- dividual effort. Neither death nor disease can. Disease that racks the body and overturns the mind, that peoples the night grisly hor- TOTS and marks the day with spasms of pain, robs existence of it's pleasure. Death is the white terror in whose path the weeds of sorrow spring up, and whose jave- lin thrust is deadly to human hope. If Rockefeller's millions can miti- gate their effects, they will have been washed of much of their taint. l-EY

Arkansas Increases Coal Output.

The production of coal in Arkan-
 sas in 1918 was 2,234, ,1Oz short tons, valued at $3,925,zOl, com
 pared with 2,lOO,8l9 tons, valued
 at $5.582,z89. in 1912, gain of 155,288 tons in quanty and of $34O,9l2 in value. The increased production in 1913 is attributed by E. w. Parker, of the United States Geological Survey. chiefly to a larger railroad consumption caused partly by a decrease in the SUD- ply of fuel oil and partly by in- creased business. This was offset to some extent by decreased do- mestic consumption, particularly in Texas, owing to an increase of natural gas in that state. The prolonged drought in August and September also had an adverse in- fluence on coal production, as it cut down the wheat crop in Kan sas and the cotton crop in Oklaho- ma and Texas. Transportation fa- cilities were improved over those of previous years, and a reduction in freight rates. put into effect in the latter part of the year, is ex- pected to have a beneficial effect on the industry by enabling larger quantities of coal to be shipped to

the Northwest, where Arkansas semianthracite has established a market and has already to some extent replaced West Virginia smokeless coal. The conditions at the close of 1913 presented more hopeful outlook for the future than has existed in Arkansas for several years.
 The number of men on strike for one cause or another in 1915 was ,221. little more than one fourth of the total number em- ployed, and the average number of working days lost by each man on strike was 2z. The average quan- tity of coal produced by each man employed was 48O tons during the year, against 463 tons in 1912. According to the Bureau of Mines, there were 12 fatal accidents in 1915, just double the number in 1912. The aeath rate per thou sand in 1913 was 2.58, and there were 186, ,1z6 tons of coal mined for each life lost. In 1912 the death rate was l 8, and the quan- tity of coal mined for each life lost was 35O,15z tons.

Exposition Exhibit Means Much to Arkansas


 Arkansas will profit more from the opening of the Panama Canal and the development of this part of the country than thousands of her citizens imagine. This state is in the very path of commerce and development engendered by the big canal which changes the path of navigation of the world. Up the Mississippi valley will swell the tide of traffic, industry and settle ment and Arkansas will feel the first waves of prosperity that break upon the country, owing to her for
 tunate location. How true it is that there is a tide in the affairs of men which taken at it's flood leads on to fortune,' is just as true with regard to states. Now. above all times, is the era of possibilities for this great state. This week at Little Rock a geologist represent ing Harvard University said: There is not a geologist in the United States who is not familiar with the wonderful mineral re- sources of Arkansas. That word
 wonderful, used by an eminent geologist in describing mineral re- sources, should arouse our own people to the wealth that abounds on every side in this remarkable state and stir us to enterprising activity to tell the world what we have and to do something to at tract millions of dollars in capital for development purposes and to secure thousands of desirable citi- zens and home seekers. Tender handed grasp a nette and it stings you for your pains; grasp it like a man of mettle and it soft as silk remains. is familiar old saying. Public spirited men, ambitious for the welfare of Arkansas, have un- der the fitting leadership of the states chief executive, grasped like men of mettle big proposition to put Arkansas in a position be- fore the eyes of the world which will do her credit and justice. In the absence of an appropriation by the legislature, these men have set out to raise one hundred thousand dollars, in pennies, niokles and dimes, as well as by $1 ,OOO Gona- tons, some of which have already b zen pledged, to give Arkansas as good building and as creditable an exhibit of products and re- sources as any state in the Union, and this is what is going to be done. This county is going to be organ ized and an opportunity given to each man. woman and child to work for the advertising of Arkansas be- fore the world If the other coun- ties do as we'll in proportion as Union. nobody need worry for fear that Arkansas will not make as good showing as any other state at the San Francisco Exposition.

khy Southern Soils Are Poor.

l notice in your issue of May 2 that some member of the staff has the nerve to tell the truth about Southern soils under the heading
 Southern Soils are Poor-But | May be Made Immensely Fertile. ''
 Of course they are poor. No one with good sense of observation ever doubted it except he was mis- i led by the orators. And why are 1 they poor? Because of cheap la bor and because of certain elima- tic conditions which. properly CO., operated with will make fields fer tile but which improperly operated with have made our fields infertile. The climatic conditions to which allude are, first, the long warm saa- son during which decay goes on rapidly; and second, the abundant rainfall. The first changes the or ganic matter to forms in which it is both of use and in danger of loss. The second makes it a loss by washing 1t from the soil and by washing the soil from the subsoil.
 There has been practiced in the South for years and years a sFe eies of bonanza farming with the same motto as in the Northwest. Get it out of the land This kind of farming has been longer contin- ued than in the Northwest because the soil and climate together bear it longer. The favorable climate has to some extent obscured the real condition of the soil from us. We have thought that our soil was rich when in reality the richness of late years has been mostly in the climate. and the end of our bonanza farming has been reached before we knew 1t.
 With favorable climatic condi- l tions in the South a given yield say 20 bushels per acre of corn indicates poorer soil than does the same yield in the North. What then if our yield has fallen below the northern yield? In some way our low yield must have been more profitable. else we would have come to our senses before. And such is the case.
 While labor in the bonanza far ming of the Northwest was always high, labor in the South has always been low. This has made lower yield profitable and a more com plete skinning of the land possible.
 Let us summarize. Abundance of rain, rapid decay of soil materi- als. and cheap labor have together made possible the profitable pro- duction of very low yields of cotz ton-itself a poor land crop-on very poor land And so poor land has resulted in the natural order.
 But who will say that we ought not to have the rain or the long warm season or the cheap labor? Surely in these very things which have all but proved our ruin we have the means of developing an extremely fertile soil. These con- ditions properly co-operated with will build up our land just as inn properly operated with they have torn it down. The first class cli- matic conditions which the South has, with first class attention to the soil. will certainly give rich soil and large crops. The climate we already have; the attention to the soil is what The Progressive Farmer breaches in every issue, - M. E. Sherwin, in The Progressive Farmer.
