A TRIUMPH OF PEACE

At this time, when facts and appearances so strongly convey the impression that the world Is given oyer to war. a triumph of peace is proved in the announce ment of Secretary of State Bryan that twenty-tiX treaties have been signed, and eight others ap- proved, between the United States and other countries. in- cluding the great powers now at war in Europe, providing that no hostilities shall be declared be- tween this nation and any of these countries before an inter. val of a year shall have elapsed. to inquire into the matters of dis pute and the latter shall have been investigated by duly qual flied commission.

WEEKLY. LETTER OF JOHN H. PAGE, COMMISSIONER MINES, MANUFACTURERS, AGRICULTURE
FARM DEMONSTRATION WORK


 For the past eight years what has been known as farm demon stration work has been carried on Iu Arkansas under the direction of the Agricultural Department at Washington. Most of the cour ties have had one of the To- cal County Agents at one time or another during this time, and thus the people have been able to learn the nature of the work. A great many farmers have cul- tivated crops under the direction of these agents and have profted by 1t. A great many have mis- understood the work, and were led to believe that the plan was for the local demonstration agent to visit the farmers and teach them how to farm, according to , the ideas of the local demonstra- tor. As 1 understand it this is not the case, but on the other hand the agent explains in detail the improved methods of the Department of Agriculture in seed selection, land preparation, planting and cultivation. and will undertake to visit the farm of any farmer who will agree to cultivate certain portion of his crop accordingly, these visits to be frequent enough to meet all emergencies and give all infor- nation that may be required about the government methods. In addition the agent supplies bulletins and procures any lnfor- nation and service from the gov ernment that is available, and gives his services free to those who undertake to try out new methods or new crops. The gov ernment plan is not one of eXpe- riment, but the result of many experiments made by the gov ernment in many parts of the United States.
 There Is always question in the minds of some whether the government methods will produce better yields for less labor and cost than idividual methods. Sometimes they do not, for some of the individual farmers have as good methods as the govern ment, .or at least produce as good results. But when compared with the average, there Is shown to be an absolute positive increase under the government methods. To illustrate thIs more forclbly will refer to the result of the demonstration work in this State lin 1913. More than 1900 men tried the demonstration work iu 1913. They cultivated about l3,- ! GOO acres of corn, that made an average yield of 35 bushels per acre; and about 2),000 acres of cotton that made an average 5t 101S pounds Of seed cotton p>r acre. These demonstrations were made in all parts of Arkansas, on all kinds Of land and under all ot the different prevailing weather conditions. The government crop i st .lstlcs for Arkansas for 1913 show that the average yield of corn was 20 bushels per acre, and 583 pounds of seed cotton per acre, or difference of l5 bush els of corn Der acre and of 465 pounds of seed cotton per acre. These figures make their own ar gument.
 l know personally all of the County Agents, l never met more faithful and earnest set of workers. l do not know what they have done this year, but l feel that each one has done his

Other important players, il not
stars. have also been signed by clubs
Of the Federal league. Among them
are Ad Brennan Of the ~Philadelphia

er. once of the New York Giants;
Packard of Cincinnati; McKechnie,
once second baseman for Pittsburgh
and also for the New York Ameri-
cans; Barbeau, once third baseman
for Pittsburgh, and Schlafy, long in
the international league.
One thing is holding back many big
league players from accepting offers
of Federal leauge club managers-tfe
question of money. Will the Federal
league last through the season and
thus be able to pay salaries? IL Its
managers could assure players of
their money they would likely get
MANY more stars OF the biz leagues.

disposes OF the theory that the New
York match makers postponed the af-
fair to a later date because they were
unable to get a lease on Madison
Square Garden.
In an effort to get to the bottom Of
the trouble Mcfarland intends going
to New York for a conference with
Gibson. This gave the scandal mon

said Mcfarland and Gibson are joint
ly interested in a New York cafe, and
for this reason Gibson agred to give
Packey 35 per cent Of the gross. This,
however. was to be kept a secret so
that Gibbons would not raise a kick
for an equal division of the purse, 1t
being announced when the match was
made that both boxers We're to get 25
per cent. The club hackers planned to
divide so per cent with the principals
and they refused to become a party
to the secret agreement.

of organized baseball.
King Cole, the once brilliant pitcher
of the Chicago Cubs. has just an

Chicago F~ederals. Cole from
the American association but he had
been signed by Frank Chance, manag-
err of the New York American league
Tub, for the coming season. He had
shown, in his work of 1913 with the
Milwaukee club of the American asso-
citation, that he vas back to his best
form when with the Cubs. Chance
counted much on his aid for the 1914
season in New York, SO the loss to
him will be greater than other clubs
will have in the loss OF Tinker. Brown,
and Knabe.
Catcher Killifer of the Philadelphia

best catcaers in the country. He did
most Of the catching last year despite
the fact that Red Doom, the manager,
