tain on Farms as In the
Factories

Only Difference Is That Ex-

Are Scarce

Farming and farm work arc skilled
occupations. and arc now generally
recognized as such, says the sgricuit-
ursl correspondent Of "Thc London
Times" In so far as skill is concerned,
farming does not differ from other in
dustries. The personal factor shows
itself in various forms in all branches
Of husbandry. For the moment IL is
labor rather than competent direc-
ton that engages attention, by rea-
son Of its scarcity and ineficiency.
To Judge from the way in which the
land has been dcnuded Of skilled work

Of training obtains in quarters where
something different might have been
expected. The principle Of dilution
was as sound in respect to agriculture
as to munitions. although with this diff
ference, that the number Of skilled
hands was already barely in excess Of
requirements.
The vital importance Of experience
in such operations as ploughing, SOW
ing, shepherding and the tending OF
stock cannot easily be unduly empha-
sized. As regards field work, II is not
only in the control or use Of the lmple-
mcnts that skill exerts itself, although
here its results arc important; the ef-
feet upon horses has TO be considered.
The horse is as sensitive 10 proper

KILLS HER HUSBAND
 AND SIX CHILDREN
Ncsrcss Near Nashville, Ark, Be comes Suddenly Insane and
 Stays Entire Family.

Nashville, Ark, March 12.-Will Green, negro farmer, about 40 years old, living in a negro settle ment in the Black Land neighbOr- hood, about eight miles south of here, and his six children, ranging in age from three to. Il years, were found dead in one room in their home early yesterday morning, with their skulls crushed and with cuts about their throats. Addie Green, wife of Green and mother of the children, who apparently is in- IsaHe, has admitted that she killed her husband, but says that she re- members nothing of killing the six children. She has been arrested land placed in the jail here.
 It is supposed that the woman made use of a, two-bladed hand lax, which was discovered, covered
 with blood, near the scene of the crime, and that she attacked the negro and the children while they were asleep. The seven bodies were found in one room, five of the children in one bed and Greer and the youngest child in another. Green had five wounds, and the skulls of the children were crushed. The bodies were found by Tom Graves and Alonzon Atkins, negro neighbors.
 Officers say that the woman has admitted several times that she killed Green, and that she told an other negro woman that she did it "bccauSe she was tired of him. :" She made confession yesterday before several officers and by islanders. Her remembrance of the crime seems to be confused, and she will not admit that she killed her children She is apparently insane. or trying to appear insane. She told one interviewer that she had iio reason for killing. Green and that they had had no trouble.
