The Travel Magazine says out of 10,000 automobiles in lowa, 5000, are owned by farmers. Kansas farmers spent §3, - 200,000 for automobiles during 1909, and $2,750,000 iu 1908. 111 one Nebraska town of 800 population, forty automo biles were sold last year to farmers near the town and retired farmers in the town. Careful estimates of the number of automobiles owned by farmers in the entire United States is 76,000. Nowadays there is 110 more cry about lack of opportunity on the farm. Sixteen automobile makers are advertising automobiles to the farmer in the 450 farm papers in the country, and most of them are arguing that the automobile will keep the boy on the farm, and make life more livable for the wife, whose dreary round of labor has been the pity of the country. Now the farmer with an automobile can take his family for an evening call, or lecture, without using his horses. He can goto church on Sunday more reg ularly, he can visit distant relatives and friends more frequently; he can goto town oftener and more quickly. There are 48,000,000 people living on tarms and in towns of less than 4,000 in this country. This means that over half of our population is practically in the country. About 25,000,000 of these are young people, and they are just as keen for pleasure as young peo ple anywhere else. That is one big reason for the automobile 011 the farm. Ten or fifteen years ago farmers bought organs for their daughters and buggies for their sons. A great many of them are today buying automobiles for the whole family. An entirely new mean ing has been given to the village soci al life in consequence. IF WOMEN ONLY KNEW What a Heap of Happiness It Would Bring to Danville Homes.

SHENANDOAH IS GETTING READY Shenandoah Evening Herald. Judging from tlio number of people who expect to have electric displays iu front of their residences and busi ness places during the week of the Six-County firemen's convention in .Tune, the electric light companies will be taxed to their utmost to supply the necessary illumination. While many are of the opinion that there will be but one "big day," they may bo agreeably mistaken, as already a number of business men are quietly soliciting subscriptions to bo offered as prizes for the other parades which will bo held that week. It is intended to have Marathon races,civic parades, industrial and business men's demon strations. The merchants, who are ar ranging to have a strong organization will, in a short time, make known their plans. They want the co-opera tion of everybody iu making the week the greatest in the history of the town. It will not, however, in any way in terfere with the firemen or their par ade, but 011 the other hand will con tribute to the success of the conven tion. Chief Burgess Strolis is preparing his speech of wolcome to the firemen and already has the key to the city ready to turn over to the fire fighters, who will be afforded every courtesy. Everybody will join the local firemen and also the borough authorities in making "Firemen's Week" one long to be remembered. Expert decorators from the various cities will be here early and by the time the firemen arrive the city will be in gala attire. It is the intention of the firemen to urge that every home and bnsiness place in the town be de corated. There will be arches erected in the business sections and nothing will bo left undone to do honor to the occasion. Hundreds of former residents will be here that week, judging from the many who are arranging to come. Some who had planned to come to town during the holidays of Christmas j and Easter have deferred the trip un til "Firemen's Week,"so that a grand re-union of former townspeople will be a feature of the gathering. Many firemen who have removed from here will take part in the festivities. Let everybody enter heartily into j the occasion and Shenandoah will ! eclipse all other towns that have been 1 honored with the meet of the Six- j County Firemen's Association.

Seven men, all foreigners,were kill ed and three others, one of them an American, were uauiy injured through a premature explosion of a blast at the stone quarry of the Nazareth Cement company at Nazareth today. The men bad planted a blast and were tamping down the dynamite when in some qunexpjinable manner the ex plosive went off. Ail of the dead were buried under several tons of rock and sand. St. Charles, a little town on the Al legheny Valley railiuad fifteen miles from Hodbank, was entirely wiped off the map by a recent fire. Starting in the village's only industry, the brick works, from ail explosion of gas, the flames spread to the general store aud thdtioe to some dwellings. A dozen freight cars caught fire from the resi dences and the ties under them were loft b'ack and charred. BAD FIRE IN BLOOMSBURG A firo of unknown origin broke out in Bloomsbnrg Sunday morning, in which a dwelling was partially burned and four barns along with much of their contents destroyed, causing a to tal loss of about <12,000 partially cov ered by insurance. The fire was located in the heart of the residential part of the town at the rear of the First Presbyterian church I on Market street. It. originated iu the ! barn of William E. Hartman shortly after 4 o'clock and spread successively to the barns of Jacob Keller, Jerry Hess and Fred M. Gilmore. From the j latter barn the firo communicated to ' the dwelling on the same lot owned by ' Mr. Gilmore and tenanted by John ! Savitts. The barns were all situated I on Murray alley, the house around 1 the corner on Anthony alley. Thrilling incidents abounded. Wil- ! liam E. Hartman is the owner of the bus line running to the Pennsylvania ; station. In this barn, beside his wag- ' ons, harness and a large supply of feed, were five horses. When the fire was discovered the upper part of the barn was a mass of flames. Freas i Boon, whose residence is situated near, was the first to reach the scene of the firo. He was immediately followed by Mr. Hartman. They arrived just iu 1 the uick of time to save the horses, j Mr. Hartman dashed into the burning j barn and although the straw compos ing the bedding was 011 fire he suc ceeded in leading out one of the horses, j Mr. Hartman is afflicted with heart trouble and the excitement was too ! much for him; he fell to the ground insensible. At this juncture Mr. Boone ! proved a hero. At the first sight of 1 the fire he had hurried out of his house j without shoes. When Mr. Hartman gave out. in his bare feet he dashed in- : to the stable over the burning straw. ' By this time the horses' maues were on fire aud their halter straps wore burned. He delivered one of the horses to Mrs. Hartman, who stood at the j door and returning again and again ; through the fire succeeded in getting out all three of the remaining horses. ! By this time the fire had spread to the adjoining bain, where four horses were stabled belonging to the prop rietor of the Reading bus line. The ' horses, along with a number of carri ages, wagons, harness, etc., were sav- j ed. The fire depatrment was on hand in ' good time, but when it arrived the four barns were doomed. In Mr. Keller's barn was his auto mobile, a fine Stanley steamer. The door was locked and there seemed to be. no way of saving the machine, ' when W. L. White, a prominent resi dent, broke in a window and leaping into the building snoceeded in open ing the door, after which the machine ; was pulled outsido only slightly dam- \ age. The house occupied by the Savitts family was soou on fire. The inmates proved to be sound sleepets. Although the roof and oue sido of the house were burning it was impossible to arouse them.until a window of one of the sleeping rooms 011 the second story, was broken in by stones thrown by the crowd. All the household goods were saved. The fire was soon extinguish- j ed, but not until the roof and one side , of the dwelling were badly damaged. : Several other buildings ignited but 1 the file was soon extinguished. The heaviest loser is William E. Hartman, who lost 3 busses,a baggage . cart, a suriev, a buggy, a sleigh, sev- ! eral wagons, sleigh runners, 11 sets of • harness, carpenter tools, 300 bushels of corn, 250 bushels of oats and four tons of hay. The loss is not fully cover-1 ed with insurance.The losses sustained by the other parties is pretty well cov-! ered. There is 110 theory as to the origin of j the fire.

Ed a communication from tlio fourtli \ ] postmaster general having a direct ! i bearing ou the subject of good roads. \ I Tlie split-log (Iray is recoininended for > nso and it is made clear that, if the roads on the rural routes are not kept 1 in propel condition, the free delivery of mail will be discontinued. The communication explains that as | the result of general and special let ters sent out by the department the | fact has been discovered that there are ! many localities where road conditions 1 ! are bad and improvements are impera tive. | Postmaster Gouger is directed to in -1 form himself ou the condition of the j | roads and bridges on the rural routes j out of his office; if ho finds any of i' j these in bad condition he is directed j to present the matter in the strongest, ! and most positive way to the patrons j and the road officials. If after a rea sonable time has elapsed the improve- : i ments have not been made or started | the postmaster is to report the fact to i the office of the foui tli postmaster gen eral, when action will be taken look j iug to a discontinuance of the service. The department, the communication states, is not immediately concerned in elaborate load improvements, but in the interest of the service it insists J ; upon the roads being kept in good re pair, the lack of which, it is explaiii j ed, is usually due to improper drainage and unsuitable grading and surface work. In this connection the split-log ; drag is referred to as a device by which good results in drainage, grad j iug and surface work can be easily and cheaply accomplished. I An accompanying communication informs the postmaster that it is the ; desire of the department that the pat* j rons of the rural delivery paint their I boxes and the posts to which they are attached a pure white color. This will i not only protect the box and post from ! damage by the weather, but will also give all boxes a uniform color and 1 serve to fix their identity in all pans lof the country as United States mail boxes. The patron's name and box | number is to be imprinted in black i block letters about two inches high.
