Plans to Be Made at State Wide Meeting to Encourage
 Farmers to Diversity.

Little Rock, Oct 13.-There will be Ia notable conference in this city Fri day of the varied interests co-operat- ing in the diversified farming cam paign. At that time there will be in the city representatives of tfle agri cultural activities of the railroads, demonstration farming, and educa- uonal institutions, as well as the members of the state association of county superintendents.
 In letter that has gone throughout the state, H. F. Alten, chairman of the profitable farming campaign, says:
 "In this crisis, the farmer is not only asking the assistance of the banker and merchant but wants to be shown how to grow these various food crops profitably. and no one but an agricultural expert con fill this place. The United States govern ment will furnish one-third of the money for this farm expert, and in most of the counties there is one or more, supported one-third by the gov ernment and two-thirds by the appro- priation of the county ewing court.
 sIf you should have one in your county already, sec to it that an ap- propriation is made by the county court of s1000 to pay the county's share of his support. If you have no farm expert in your county then you should see to it that an appro- priation of $1,000 is made for the same The levying court meets Oct. 2S, SC this should be attended to at once. Get your business men to- gether, for something must be dono for Arkansas.
 Have delegates appointed to the state meeting October 1G, at Little Rock, and then look after the county appropriations for your farm expert This will mean millions to Arkansas" 7"

Making Boys Useful.

Chinese women may lack some of the privileges accorded to their sex in more modern countries, but they have others peculiarly their own. For instance, when Chinese lady encoun- ters mudhole she beckons to any small boy in sight. The boy gets down on his hands and knees in the mud and the lady uses him as foot bridge. She is required to give him a small coin for the service.

 The strenuous and active outdoor life that Miss Hillman haa nceessar- fly led in the past seven years has not affected her womanliness, for in her home she Is the same bright, attractive and gracious hostezs who in her early gtrlhood entertained her friends in the home of her par entB in far away St. Paul.
 Cupid has often aimed his shafts at her, and 1t is said that had she been 90 inclined she could have had her choice Of several men of wealth and of distinguished position and influence in the Canadian en- plre; it is even hinted that only a short time ago a well known poli- tician in the Yukon, who, prior to the defeat of the Liberals in the election Of three years ago, and who was in close touch with the govern ment, had offered her his heart and hand. But ineffacably engraved up- on her heart is the image of a handsome, sturdy young business man in the home of her childhood, to whom she has pligh+ed her troth and one day expects to wed.
 Miss Hillman's whole career since she left the parental roof has been a wonderful demonstration of what c woman of determination and bus mess ability can achieve in pur- suits that have heretofore been all most exclusively pre-empted and followed by men. Her place is known as FairYiew Heights Farm, near Keeler, Saskatchewan.

MANAGER
 IDEA GROWING

Dallas, Texas, Jan. 26-Residents of a dozen or more Texas towns and cities have started a campaign to have the manager plan similar to that adopted in Dayton, Ohio, es- tablished. The movement while not generally systematized is spread ing throughout the Lone Star state and it was prophesiUd here that managers will be appointed in many Texas cities this year. Amarillo, at a recent election, voted to employ a town manager at a large salary, in the belief that such an official and such a municipal government would save the city several thous- ands of dollars-more than enough to pay his salary and give Amarillo far better government than it has heretofore enjoyed. 4 committee Of Denton, Texas, citizens, also has decided on a similar course, and plans are being mapped out to have the Denton charter so chang ed that the city commissioners will be put on nominal salaries and a town manager put at the head at a salary of S3,000 or more.

 AT ALERT BAY

Seattle, Jan. 26-Wcrd reached here this morning that the Princess Sophia of the c. P. R. line. south bound from Skagway, is ashore at Alert Bay and that her passengers had been transferrd to the steam CT Alki and are now en route to Se- attle on board that Vessl.
 The Princess Sophia left skag- way last Wednesday night at II o'clock, with IS Bouthbound passen- gers from here. When she reach ed Juneau she was held over for one day in order to take on board several lawyers who had been in that city in attendance upon the district court.
 F. P. W. Lowle, local agent of the c. P. R. is perfectly familiaar with Alert Bay surroundings and gives it Rs his opinion that if the passengers of the Princess Sophia were transferred as stated in the above dispatch it was owing to damages that had been sustained by the machinery of the boat and not on account of any injury to her hull

WILL BE
 QUITE EXPENSIVE

Texarkana, Ark. Jan. 26-Up to today no applications for a saloon license had been received by the city fathers of Marked Tree, Ark. And the city fathers do not expect that any will be mad9, in view of che fact that $2O,O00 is the fee ask ed by the city council. Added to the high cost of running a saloon at Marked Tree, is the statute re- quiring a saloon to close at nine o'clock in the evening. Marked Tree residents who might take an occasional nip if a saloon should open under these difficulties, are wondering how much they would have to pay for one highball or cocktail when license costs S20,- 900, if such connections sell for fif- teen cents or two for two-bits, un- der a $500 license.

AT TIE PUEBLO
 COPPER MINE

c A. Mowry, assistant manager of the Atlas Mining compdny at Whitehorse and Harvey W. Marsh assayer of the same company, who have been in SEagway for several days waiting for a boat, left on the Georgia this morning for Juneau an Douzlas on business for the com pany.
 While here a Daily Alaskan rep reseulatiye had Quuite a lengthy conversation with lIr Mowry, during which he ga.e out the following in formation relative to the work that is now being done on the Pueblo mine and also of that which is in contemplarlgn in the near future.
 The main shalt of the Pueblo IS now near,y down to the 400 foot level. and i. is thought that within the next 80 to 45 days the miners will have reached that point, where it is the intention to eXcayare and make a working station for the eN- petitions haudlin and hoistiug of the ore 10 the surface, for it is at the 400 foot level that drift ing along rhe ore body will com meuca and the shipment of ore for the coming season be started. MT. NIowry tliuLs that as soon as the water transportation facilities from Skagway to the smelte- are such as to demand it that the oupuC of the mine will be from 21o 10 300 tons per day and by the end of the com ing season will be increased 10 500 tons per day
 When the 400 foot level is reach ed an additional force of loo men will be put 10 work and the main shaft continued on down to a depth Of 650 feet. Al tho Gog foot lev el another working station will be established and another drjtC run along the ore body.
 The need of the 101 eXcr@ mon will le about the first Of March, when the 400 foot level is reached and Jle work of eNCava-.ng shipping station and the drifting OIL the o'e body will commence, as there will be an immense amount oi work 70 do in connection with the mining aud handling of that large amount Of ore each day.
 It is tie intention of the Atlas mining co J~a-uy to employ none but the b.. CT class of miners ald men il its operations on the Pueblo and with this end in view the man ageueut h@s recently erected six new cottages in addition to those already in use, for tho accomm0da- ton Of married employees and their tamiL IS. These cottages are elec- -ric l -hted, steam heated and sup piled with all the modern convent ences.

 THE GHISbNA

Messrs. A. B. Ferguson and J. H. Nitric. who are stopping at the Golden North hotel, and of whom the Daily Alaskan made brief men- tion on Saturday, have recently come out from the Chisana via Cordova. They are partners, and went into the interior camp early last August via Whitehorse and the Kluane lake route. They are both old miners and prospectorB' Mr. Ferguson having been a pioneer on the creeks near Dawson and lat CT with Manley in the Iditarod gold field.
 These gentlemen are of one mind aa 70 the present conditions and future outlook of the Chisana camp, which they say is bound, from the nature of tho discoveries already made, to be @ good country for a limited number of people and may develop into place Of much importance, although they are sksp;i,al as to it's ever rival ling either Dawson or Fairbanks in the amount of it's output.
 They confirm the stories hereto fore published in the Daily Alas kan and other papers Of the amount of gold secured Dy James and his partner on discovery, and In addi- tion state that there were several thousand dollars taken out subse- iueutly on Gold Run creek, ot which no mention has heretofore been made.
 Up to the time of their depart- ure from the camp comparatively little worl had been dtne and, 5o far as lGay knew, ,oaiy four holes had been sunk to bedrock, one of which wCs by themselves. i
 It is their belief that when the creeks which radiate from G6ld Hill. which has an area of 2s5 x 355 miles, are. .prospeeted thoroughly that gocd pay win likely be found, as t is upon these creeks that the most favorable indications have been found. A peculiarly of these creeks. they say, is that they jump off into box canyons, with high falls which readers the work of pros pectiug extremely difficult even in summer aId altogether impractcabl in winter, as the nearest fuel Is from four to five miles distant and the difficulties of getting it onto the
 reeks in quantity are nsurmount- able in winter.
 One great obstacle to the early development of the camp, they think, will be the settlement of dis putes in the spring as to the own ership of claims. Those who went in early and staked and then went outside have had their locations jumped by people who subsequent ly went in. Upon the return of the original locators there is a pos sibility, in fact, very great prob ability, that feeling will be aroused to such a pitch in many Instances that it will end in blOodshed. =
 MT. Ferguson and MT. Nitric unite in praise of the. excellent qual- ities and abilities of the newly ap- pointed commissioner for the camp, Richard Diamond and the U. g. Dep uty Marshal, Frank Hoffman, and believe that if serious trouble is averted in the camp in the spring the reason for it will be directly traceable to these two officials.

STORY 0F 1. \ YOUNG WOMAN

The receipt by the Daily Alas- kan the other day of Q sample pack age Of Marquis wheat from the State Grain Inspection Department of Minneapolis, MiRn., although pro sAlas enough in Itself, brings Viv- .idly to mind the romantic life story of a St. Paul young woman who, although now only few years beyond her teens, few years ago vent Into the WiIda of the saskat- chewau, took up Q farm of 27OO acres of GnimproTed land and has Since, alone and unaIded, brought it into Q high state of cultivation and b ROW recognized as one of tho foremost and most successful farmers and stock-raiserB in the whole of that vast region embrac- ed in what is known aa the North vest Territories of Canada.
 Her wonderful achievements have been time and again written up aud commented upon in the col- umns of ths prem throughout Can ada and the United States and her fame may be aaid to be world wide.
 The young lady's name is Miss Ruth H. Hiflman, and she was born and raised in St. Paul, Minn., whero her mother still resIdes.
 In 1907 Mics HillmsH, young, handsorne, and talented end 2 member of the most exclusive circles in tho city of St. Paul, deliberate lv turned her back upon the al- luremSntB Of ths fashionable life for which Bha Was 30 well fitted by education and social position and set her face toward tho Canadian wilderness to"carYe out for herself a nams and fortune.
 She located in saskatchewan and starred fn to raising live stock, principally horses and hogs. The venture paid from the start. and In a short time she extended the scope of her OperatioHR and engag- ed in the cultivation Of wheat, of which she now produces immense quantities.
 Miss HiIlman, notwithstanding the manifold duties which her business entaIled, has kept abreast of the times iu the best and most eeononl- ical methods of farming and stock raising, and has amply demonstrated that success in this field of labor Is not tha prerogatiVe of man alone but is open to those of the gent Ter sex who have the courage and ability to handle 1t in a scientific manner.
 Tho young lady was one of the first to recognize the importance of pr. c. E. saunders' development of the Marquis variety of wheat and Is today the most extensive grow CT of 1t in the whole of Canada.
 In 1911 Miss Hlllman, who Is a member of tho Grain Growers Asso- ciatton of Western Canada, went to Chicago to attend an agricultural convention at which she was award ed a medal for scientific farming.
 In addition to her ether accom- pliBhmen's Miss Hlllman is famous as a hoSewoman throughout the Saskatchewan, and when seated up- on tho back Of a spirited horse is apparently ss much a part of the animal Is though they were in deed e ra-incarnatiou of the Gen. taur, that fabled being of mythology half man and half horse, the tale of whose existence iB Baid to have originated among the Lapithae. a
