FARM CHANGES OWNERS.

4 real estate transaction Of
more than passing importance
was closed latter part of last
week, when Mrs. NJ. Bowden
sold her 20-acre farm. a short
distance north Of town to |. II.
Pound, oil Fredonia. Kansas. The
new owner, with his family ar
rived III Springdale this week.
and are now in possession: fu-
ture plans Of Mrs. Bowden have
not been made public.
The farm is one of the best
known in this section, and was
IN splendid condition, and sold
for $500 per acre, unusually high.
1t IS interesting 10 note that near
twelve Years ago when II. Bow
den, deceased. moved to Spring
dale and purchased this same
twenty acres. the price paid was
500 per acre; but extensive cult
walton. and splendid care of the
orchard has improved the place
until it sold for Sc. 900.

ABOUT COUNTY AGENTS.

Flfty-one counties in Arkansas
have invested III county agricul-
tural agents and it is the best
investment ever made BY any
county. The county agent pays
for the investment in many ways.
One agent reports the vaccina-
ton Of $500 hogs in ten months
another has Zyaccinated enough
horses and cattle for anthrax to
pay his salary for twenty years;
another. in addition to his other
duties. has conducted a campaign
for screen doors and windows
and has reduced the cases Of ma
laria; agents below the quaran-
tine line have built several hun
bred vats and have supervised
the dipping Of thousands Of cat
tie; in all the counties they are
directing the campaign for Glow
erS and cover crops and from
their work there will be thousand
upon thousands Of acres Of cloy-
ers, there will be more acres of
wheat and rye and oats for win
ter cover crops than ever before.
The county agent and the home
demonstration agent are the on
~ two employees Of county
that work for the farmers all the
time and the state and nation
will pay one-third of the salary
Every county in Arkansas should
have these two valuable agents.
Farmers who believe in the agent
idea should let their views be
known and emphatically too.
