THE FARMER
AND THE ADTO
The number of automobiles owned
by farmers is growing rapidly. 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.

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 KILLED
EASTON, Pa., April 13.
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.

found the hole full of oil when they
went to work one morning and will
drill it at least 100 feet deeper. If the
volume is not increased another well
will bo drilled nearby. The work of

RECOMMENDS
SPLIT-LOG DRUG
Postmaster W. L. Gouger has receiv-!
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.
ANYONE CAN RUN CAR
Attorney General Todd has noti tied
l the State highway department that
there will be no appeal from the de
cision of Judge Staake, of Philadel
phia, that under the automobile act of
i IlKlit only professional paid drivers are
! required to tako out chauffer's licenses. •
1 This means that if members of the
family of the owner of a motor car or
any of his friends desire to take out
| the machine they will not be in danger
j of arrest for playing chauffeur with- >
| out a license.

the fire spread rapidly, in a short time
[ sweeping the ridge from base to stun-
I niit and filling the sky with dense
! clouds of smoke.
j The burning tract adjoined the hos
j pital land and there was great danger
jof the fire communicating. A number
; of hospital employes were at once sent
j to fight the fire; these with the aid of

time the fire burned out. A good deal
