BRITISH TELEPHONE SYSTEM
Government Operation of Lines es Proving Unsatisfactory, Expensive
 and inefficient.

Little Rock.-A copy of the Shef- field, England, Daily Telegraph re- gently received here contains an arti- cle that would indicate that there is more complaint in that country over government-owned telephones than ever was known by a private tele- phone company in this country. The article went on to say:
 "The postmaster-general is said to have complained some time ago that he could not dine out, either in public or in private, without hearing about those 'confounded telephones Tho grumbles have not yet ended: there was a sort of culminating outburst of them in the house of commons recent ly, when all the hard things that could be said even about the telephone serv- ice were said with the utmost em- phasis.
 '~The service was said to be ineffi. cient and expensive; it's management was declared to be outr&geousiy at fault; painful comparisons were drawn with the former system under company management. and 1t was pointed out that the governments profit through duties levied on tho National Telephone company was ac- tually greater than its present profit as owner /of the service. AltoeetAsr this experiment in state monoOoay looks like anything but . success. But the postmastergeneral is sssminsiy impenitent; and anyhow hs hos tho telephones and means to stick to them. 50 there is no help for 1t. But one hopes. for the credit of the post office, that an effort viii be mAde to give the public moro satisfaction than 1t has recently had"

 WORKERS.
No Charge to Employee ser '"sS'- ance ApaInst Accident, Sick
 ness and Death.

Newport.-J. A. McNAchael, llnenan of tho Southwestern Telegraph Ano TelepAoue company. who met with . serious accident last March whils oo his way to repair a telephone une m this city. Is receiving semi-montnly allowance amounting to one-haf nis regular pay. This allowance is paio by the Employes' Benefit Fund 'sstao' lished by the Southwestern Teisrapn and Telephone company. Without one cent of expense to employees, fund oi sa3.00o has been set aside to meet payments under Q broad plan cover !, ing accident. sickness and death Dens' fits.
 McMichael received full pay for thirteen weeks, and will receive naii pay until he is able to resume nls work. The maximum time for the hall pay benefit is set at six years.
 Another employe who Is now receiv- ing payments from the fund Is Ii. 5. Queen of Earle, Ark, who fell from pole last June and broke his arm. Like McMichael, he received full pay ft. thirteen weeks and will continue to receive half pay until he has re- covered from his injury. Queen was in the service only nine months when his accident occurred.
 The family o1 another telephone worker in Arkansas received $2,4oO following his death, which occurred while in the performance of duty.
 This life insurance is another fea- ture of the Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone companys DeneIit plan. Dependents of employees who have been engaged in the business for five or more years are entitled to one years salary, not to exceed $2,OOO. in case of death from natural causes. If death results from injuries received while at work for the company the amount Is increased to three years salary, not to exceed $5,000
 The benefit fund also provides for pensions for employees who have served from twenty to thirty years. The lowest pension is $20 per month.
 The Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone company's benefit plan Is con nsidered one of the most liberal now being followed by any public utility in the country.

IVbERk CULT uRE; H0WTDPLAhT
soteeoLE HEDGE AND MATTED ROW SYsTEMs BOTH USED WITH PROFIT iN ARKANSAS = GIVE oED GOOD POSITION.

Strawberries may be set either in the spring or in the fall, though spring setting is more desirable, as this gives m opportunity for the ground to be cleared and broken in the fall. Thor ough preparation of the new strawher- ry bed is extremely important It pays to give the new bed the most desirable conditions possible
 At planting time 1t protects the plants from the sun and drying wind. A damp burlap cloth has been found practical by some culturists, while others prefer to place them in a pail with cover or basket lined with cloth.
 In the single hedge row system, run ners are permitted to grow in rows sufficient to fill the space between the original plants. This forms . con- tinuous row. By this method the rows should be three feet apart, and the plants set 20 inches apart in the TOW.
 In the matted row--the one most used by commercial growers. the rows are placed three and onehalf to four feet apart, and plants 20 to "A inches apart in the row. These are allowed to spread during the summer. making row about IS inches wide.
 The essential features in setting the strawberry plants are: rapid planting without the plant being dangerously exposed to sun or wind, and to see that the crown is not covered with soil or extends above the surface. Also to have the soil pressed firmly on the roots, with the riot system being spread out fn fan-shaped fashion or as nearly 50 as possible.
 These results may be best accom- plished by . man making V-shaped opening fin the soil with a spade, dfb- ble or grub hoe, and second man placing the plants. The "frming' of the soil is done by the heal of the man using the spade. while the plant is being held in proper position by tho man placing it.
 In preparing the plants for setting see that from a third to one-half of the roots system is cut-on.
 All of the dead foliage. and practi- calIy all of the leaves should be re- moved from the crown of the plant st this time. H. E. Truax,
 Arkansas Experiment Station.

this is quite frequently good sign of tuberculosis Again. if there is an occasionai death in the flock without any apparent cause, the bird should be examined carefully for the follow ing symptoms:
 The liver is most commonly affect ed and 1t is here that 1t would be with the disease. There are also white or grayish colored nodules of various sizes protruding avoye the outer surface of the liver When the nodules are opened they present a cheesy formation and are sometimes gritty. The spleen and intestines are attacked. and an examination will show nOdules similar to those describ- cd in the liver.
 The extent to which wild birds, such as sparrows pigeons. crows and others may spread the disease is not definitely known, though it is quite probable that such is the case. as fhese birds are susceptible to the dis ense.
 Owners Of the birds should be : careful to keep their fiocks free frOm the disease, as it is almost '4mnossible to rid a flock of tubercu ,osis once 1t has been infected Dis aased fowls should be separated from tho remainder of the flock. and all ]. seed birds should be burned at once

TUBERCULOSIS IN FOWLS
This Disease 10 Frequently the Cause
 of Death Among Chickens.

While Investigating the outbreaks of tuberculosis in cattle and hogs, many states have found that the same disease is prevalent among fowls. par ticularly turkeys and chickens, though great many other birds are susceptible to the disease. Tuberculo- sis in fowls is transmitted from one bird to another, and naturally starts from diseased bird being placed in healthy flock.
 If the fiocks do not keep in good flesh on the proper amount of food.
