CAMPAIGN
 WILL BE SUCCESS J. F. Wooten of State Uni versity Here in Interest
 of Local Movement. FIGURES STARTLING iEVEVyEY~s Arkansas Grows $62,0OO,O0O Worth of Cotton Annually, But Sends Away
 $64,OO0,OOO for Food
 and Feed.
FIGURES STARTLING

J. B. Wooten, of the agricultural extension department of the univers- ity of Arkansas, and who is now working in behalf of the diversified farming campaign in all parts of Ar kansas, spent several hours in Pine Bluff yesterday, going over the details of the whirlwind campaign to be con- ducted in Jefferson county by the farm experts Wednesday and Thurs day of the present week.
 MT. Wooten stated before he left for Little Rock that he found all the details for the campaign have been arranged, and that he has little doubt the campaign will be great success, in that it will show the farmers of the county how they may live at home and become independent of cotton or any other one commodity or farm product.
 The following letters, the one sent to farmers of the county, and the other to the business men, bankers and merchants, by Secretary John H. Tucker, IT,, of the Young Mems Pro- gressive Business league, have been mailed in large numbers, as part of the campaign to explain fully the in tentions of the men who are conduct ing what has been called the modern farm methods" fight:
 To the Farmers.
 Arkansas SPENDS $64,000,000 for food.
 Arkansas RAISES $62,000,0O worth of cotton (normal price).
 Arkansas should raise that $64,- OOO,O at home-LETS DO IT.
 Sixteen agricultural and live stock experts will tour Jefferson county on Wednesday and Thursday November Il and 12. They will travel in pairs and lecture at each place visited for F hours. No charge to anybody for anything. A quantity of excellent literature will be distributed on our particular farming problems. NO charge. it's all free. Get it and read it. sDiversifcation' in this campaign means 'profitable.' The object is not to preach the raising of any staple crop other than cotton, but it is to tell the farmer how he can raise the food and feed crops for his own use, and NOT TO SELL"
 To the Business Men. l "The profitable farming campaign | which will be waged in this county on next Wednesday and Thursday, NOV il and 12, deserves your hearty sup port and cooperation and your at tendance at the meetings. The Pine Bluff meeting will be held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms Wednes' day at 8 o'clock p. m.
 "This campaign is to preach the gospel of living at home. Every farm l is a factory that can manufacture the food by which it exists. Why, then | should we send $64,00GI000 outside of this state when we can keep I every bit here? This campaign Is tt l tell the farmer what to raise to nve on and how to do it, for his own con sumption and not for the market Our market crop will still be cotton
 Had the practice been diverslflca' l tion for home use instead of the on crop system now in vogue, you l farmer friends would today be spend
 ing cash with you, and your bushes
 would not be affected to the exten that it now is, by more or less cha otic commercial conditions. Doesn't that merit your support?'

FOUR GRASS FIRES.
Fire Department Kept Busy Because
 of Dry Conditions In City.

Burning grass caused the members of the Pine Bluff fire department considerable trouble yesterday, the apparatus being called out on four different occasions during the fore noon and early afternoon. In no case was any damage done, but the alarms will probably serve as warning to householders, to guard against the conditions brought on by the long dry spell of weather.
 The first alarm yesterday was from Tenth and Plum streets; the next was from the HOO block in Put len street, the third was in East Sec ond streete, and the last, during the early afternoon, was from East Sixth street, near the school.

should also point out this difference
in population"
Something about Chicago being
prairie city makes it grow and de-
velop along puzzling lines, SO that
New York sideways dug in Chicago
would fizzle out and go bankrupt and
all chances for city ownership would
be tied up in the courts.
To show how the Hearst-Harrison
plan falls down from the money
standpoint, Deuther asks people to
look over the routes laid out for the
tunnels. These routes go through,
''the I'd, 18th, 21st, 22d, 23d and 9th
wards, and all of these wards have
the most thickly populated districts
in the city inside their boundaries,
and the census Of 1910 tells us that
the population in them ran down
from to IL per cent in ten years.
The Sd, 4th, 10th and 18th wards
grew only from 1 to Z per cent"
Against these heaxfly-populated
yards where population is ON the go
ing down or at a standstill, Deuther
shows the 9th, oath and 35tA wards
with increases of population running
over $50 per cent in ten years. I'm
these fast-increasing wards" he says,
"the subway barely touches. The sit
uation is that the districts through
which the subways viii run increase
only in population at their terminus
and beyond"
By comparing elevated road sta
tons at Wilson avenue and Halsted
street, he shows that the elevated
roads get most of their traffic from
the far-out districts. After showing
other elevated stations with the same
record, he builds up an argument
that subways in order to make money
would be compelled to depend on peo-
pie who ride from outlying districts,
not from those heavily populated and
closer in toward the loop.
'HFhe imDOrtant thing to consider
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-04-06

The fierceSt jolt that anybody has
yet taken at. the Hearst-Harrison
comprehensive subway scheme
comes today from Tomaz F. Deuther,
secretary of the Greater Chicago
Federation.
Deuther takes three different slants
at the plan. For one thing, he calls it
a "delusion," a bugaboo showed to
the front by Sam insult and other
traction multimillionaires "for the
sole purpose of trying to brighten the
elevated roads to come off from their
high figures on the valuation of the
physical properties. y
Second, he makes the claim that
Chicago is spread over SO much ter
ritory that zone might as well con-
slider an underground trolley to San
Francisco as to build city-wide sub
ways for, the measly sum of $780,
100000 proposed by the Hearst-Har-
rison crowd.
Over a billion dollars will be need
ed to construct subways impartial to
all districts
81 would place the cost at from ST.
100000, 900 to 81, 400, 600, 900, and the
figures are conservative when you
consider that Chicago has 200 square
miles of territory" says Deuther.
"a comprehensive subway cannot
pay simply because of the fact that
we have not enough people to support
it," he goes on. New York has an
average of 10000 people to the
square mile in population while Chi
cago has 1000 as its average. The
most congested district in Chicago
shows about $4,000 in one square
mile, and there are no two such con-
gested districts in the city. New York
almost doubles one square mile of
population in Chicago. And some of
the New York districts that are thick
est with people have as high as 190.-
900 to 100000 to the square mile.
