341 SCHOOL HOUSES WERE
BUILT IN STATE LAST YEAR
A total of 341 new schoolhouses
was erected in Arkansas last year,
according to figures complied by
State Superintendent Geo. B. Cook
of the department of education.
Of these 31 were brick, 306 were
frame and four were of logs. The
total valuation of the new proper
ty is $773,109. It is regarded as
one of the most satisfactory years,
in the manner of distribution of
improvements, since the building
records of the state department
have been kept.
This makes a total of 6,429
school buildings in the State, clas
sified as follows: Brick, stone, or j
concrete, 290; frame, 6,047; log, 92
The total valuation of school fur
niture and apparatus is $2,642,031
which makes a total valuation for
all school property at $11,950,315.
OPPOSED CATTLE DIPPING;
IN BAD WITH UNCLE SAM
L. D. Holly, postmaster and
merchant of Kmery, and Will
Goodman, a young farmer of the
same place, were hound over by
Commissioner Parse at Batesville
a few days ago to await the ac
tion of the federal grand jury on
the charge of interfering with a
government agent in the discharge
of his duty. It is alleged that
Holly and Goodman were opposed
to the dipping of their cattle, and
that they recently attempted to
prevent a government dipping
agent from dipping their cattle
for the eradication of the fever
tick, which work is now being
carried on successfully in this and
adjoining counties.

THE FARM SCHOOLS
JOHN H. l’AGE
The farmers of Arkansas have
four district Agricultural Colleges
to which they can send their girls
and boys, where they can receive
a practical and useful education
in farm and domestic life, and at
the same time get the advantage
of literary training, and the farm
ers should send their children to
these schools. It will cost but
little for a boy or girl to attend one
of these colleges for a term, and if
the boy or girl attends one term
there will be extra efforts made to
send them through until they j
graduate. The boys and girls who j
graduate from these colleges can
go back on the farm better equip
ped for useful service, and better
able to make farm life more pros
perous, happier and more attract
ive.
We need the highest degree of
intelligence on the farms and
nothing will pay bigger and better
returns on a farm than an agricul
tural education. The boy who has
an agricultural education and goes
back on the farm with his fathers
wisdom, knowledge and experience'
to help him, will make a good far
mer nine times out of ten. We
cannot say that nine out of ten
farmers are good farmers now.
So strain a point to send your boys
io one of these colleges.
