There is reported from various
selections of this state strong feeling
In favor of Hon. David A. Ball of
Pike county as the next governor of
Missouri. In many respects this is
eminently appropriate. 1t is not
known that Mr.. Ball desires or would
have a nomination for the place but
he has many qualifications that emil
nently fit him for so exalted a posi-
ton. He has had a long and an
honorable experience in public life.
He is an able lawyer and fine pub
lie speaker. He is young man of
brain and energy and David Ball is
as true to honor and friends as the

forty millions of dollars. The public
may divide most of these estates by

the parties more wealth than they

the great good which such organiza-

they are valuable aids to the spread

Sedalia Inns not suffered to any

the time is close at hand when the
winter winds will search out those

among this class there will be
actual suffering. During the cold
season for many previous years there
has always been an organized effort In
this city to relieve the wants Of the
suffering poor, and it is to be hoped
that something of the kind will be
promulgated this winter. There are
numerous so cial and literary clubs,

pour as are deserving of assistance.
Charity, does not mean indiscrimi-

ing out those whose needs warrant
them in being the recipients of
charity, and this can only be done
when systematic effort is combined
with christian kindiiness. As every

desertions from the army, and re-
commends remedy for the evil.
The suggestions made are in strong

of deserters, while General Miles saw
a-remedy in a removal or mitigation
of causes which make assertions fire.
quent. General Howard says nothing
about removing causes, but would
make the apprehension of deser!ers
sufficiently profitable to warrant the
employment of detectives to bring
them to punishment. Perhaps it
might be well to give General Miles
remedy the first trial. The life of
enlisted men should be made toler-
able, and way should be open to
promotion. 1t is not we'll to build
stone wall in the face of a man who
has once had full view of the hori-

where advancement is impossible and
life uncomfortable, he will get out of it

army costs enough to warrant liberal
payment to the rank and file. and a

Advice to an Aspiring Poet.

Never write poem beginning Abou
Ben any thing.
Keep your hair cut.
Don't write poetry unless you are
forced to do SO, either by hunger or
the enthusiasm of your muse.
Do not be cast down because you re-
ceive $3.50 instead of $3.50 for your
first effort.
If possible, avoid rhyming "casta-
nett with .pianoforte, y "frolic'' WITH
.'cow-lick" or . Niagara with Zip
perary.'
Don't call on the editor any oftener
than you can help, and don't feel hurt
If he says he's out. He frequently
says that without meaning it.
Never despise work that comes your
way unsolicited. Writing advertise
ments is profitable vocation, they are
sure to be printed and are m UGH more
popular with the masses than odes,
sonnets or French forms.
It il a bad plan to copy one of By
ron's shorter poems and sign your
name to it.

blows through the grave. sometimes, at
night. when the moon shines in the clear
sky, an Indian woman comes from her
tepee and sits in the shadow of the great
oak tree that is her husbands grave and
she sings q song-a sort of low, plaintlve
chant of sorrow for her dead In autumn,

leaves fall from the tree, she gathers them
and takes them to her tepee, where she
makes couch for her children to sleep on. Ii
she passes under the grave of her dead
husband by daylight she does not look up at
it, but turns her eyes 10 the ground and
gives sort of mournful cry, as II she were
calling to the dead man, and had not the
heart to look to learn if he had heard her
voice. Some dozens of these graves are
scattered through the timber land ON the
reservation. Some have been there for
wears, and are covered with moss and dead
leaves. Flocks of bluejays haunt the wood
where these bodies lie, and they SEND out
screams as mournful as the scenes around
them all day long. 1t is desolate spot.
where white men seldom go, even in md
dav, and where the only sound that breaks
the solemn stiffness at night is the song OF
the Indian woman and the cry of hybrid
wildcat that prowls through the darkness.
Some of the Indians believe that the great
spirit comes down and protects the dead,
and when in the winter the wind makes
creaking through the woods they say tine

SUPERFICIAL FARMING.
4 Style of Agriculture Which will Never
Be Very Profitable.

A Style of Agriculture Which Will Never
Be Very Profitable.
Too many farmers count the total
area of their acreage rather than the
average producing value of the land.
No one ever made this diffusive style
of farming very profitable. 1t would
pay far better in the end to concen-
trate means and energy within narrow
limits, rather than acquire a number
of acres to be half titled. Again, the
farmer in putting out manure gener-
ally spreads it over too much territory.
A near neighbor sowed to wheat thir-
teen acres of uniform soil; twelve
acres in his usual way-well plowed.
narrowed level and the seed narrowed
in. The other acre was well broken,
and six tons of manure broadcasted
and thoroughly incorporated with the
soil. In doing this the surface became
in fine condition. This acre yielded
22A bushels; the twelve acres returned
only 81 bushels per acre. The grain
on the one acre cost forty five cents
per bushel; on the twelve acres, sixty
five cents per bushel. Yet with all the
evidence in favor of high culture we
still spread ourselves thinly over
broad acres. It should be the motto
of every farmer to make the most of
each foot of land, and to accumulate
all the manure he can and use it to the
best advantage. Much space, always
very rich, around stables, barns and
fences, is allotted to intruding under
brush or debris, or given up to un-
slightly weeds. Learn neatness, care
fulness and economy in the use land.
