staked his life, for he was In danger
not only from our fire, but from that

In his letter enclosing the affidavit,
General Hagood extended to Captain

He assured him Of a most sincere
welcome, and that he would be re-

A LETTER TO FARMERS.
From the Missouri Worlds Fair
Commissioners.
ONCE of Missouri Worlds's)
Fair Commission
st. Louis, Mo. Oct. Ii, 1901.

Fair Commission
st. Louis, Mo. Oct. Ii, 1901,
To the Farmers and Fruit
Growers Of Missouri:
Our Legislature has provided
very literally for a presenta.
ton of the resources and
products of our great State at
the coming Worlds Far, and it
is the intention of this Commits
sion that our Agricultural dis
play be second to none. TO &C
complish this we must have the
cooperation of the farmers ia
every county Of the State, in
dividually and collectively.
We want you to help US get to-
gether the cream OF the
products of the field, the or.
chard, meadow, vineyard and
garden; Il collection which will
demonstrate just what each
county in the State is capable
of producing and does produce
when farmed intelligently. and
an exhibit that will enhance
the value Of every farm in the
State. We want every farmer
to be on the lookout for fine
wheat, fine corn, grasses, beans
and in fact everything produc.
ed from the soil If you have
raised something which you
know will be source of pride
to your county and credit to
yourself. preserve it and write
us what you have. If condi-
tons justify, we will try and
arrange with you for its proper
storage until needed aud for its
display at the Fair, with prop.
err credit to the county and the
producer.
At least half a bushel of ca c /
sample OF wheat, a bushel OF
corn and half bushel of pota
toes. beans, etc, a good sized
bundle of the various grasse S
and where practical to preserve
them half bushel of apples

The Sabbath Rest.

One very simple and effect
i've way Of finding out what you
are doing with your Sabbaths
is to find out what your Sab.
baths are doing for you. 1t is
not so much Il question of
whether this particular occupa
ton is right and that one
wrong, whether you may go
here or may not go here or may
not go there, but of what the
day brings to you, body and
soul. Circumstances vary, tenn
peraments differ, and no one
can be law unto another, but
the law OF Sabbath rest is for
all men. 1t is older than the
tables of stone-as old as hu-
man Deed.
If you find that your Sabbath
has made your faith clearer;
your heart more tender; if it
has Quickened good impules
and awakened higher aspira-
tions; if it has made family ties
closes and God and heaven
seem nearer; if you look for
ward to Mondays tasks with
fresh courage and a desire to be
more helpful to all about you
then the Sabbath has fulfilled
it's blessed mission for you. But
if it brings none of these things,
then, whether you have spent
it in so called recreation or in
church going and Bible. read
ing, be sure-you have profan.
ed your Sabbath.-Forward.

Have You Ever Thought

hdNC lou LNtE Thought
Have our merchants ever
thought of the fact that the
country is literally flooded with
cheap farm journals which de.
rive the greatest portion of
their revenue from advertise
ment of the big city supply
houses? These papers are
many of them excellent farm
journals and by reasons of their
cheapness are in every farmers
home. The supply house ads
are prepared by men skilled in
the business and who ma Ike a
speciality of writing tempting
advertisements. This accounts
in great measure for so MANY
people patronizing the supply
houses. The country merchant
has but one weapon of defense
against the supply houses and
that is the country newspaper
The only way no stop the sup
ply houses from getting the
trade that legitmately belong S
to the country merchant is for
the said merchant to convince
the people that he has just as
good bargains at the same or
less price than the supply
house. If the country mer.
chant would invest one half
the money in proportion to his
business in advertising that the
supply houses do he would be-
surprised at the result. Don't
sit IN your store and cuss the
supply houses, but wake up'and
fight them with your own wea.
pons. An advertisement in
your town paper will reach al,
most every farmer in the
county.
Every country newspaper in
the land has opportunities to
run a supply house advertise
ments at higher figures than is
paid by any local concern, but
with very few exceptions the
editors refuse to run them be
cause they consider them an.
tagonistic to the home mer,
chants interest and the good OF
the community. Does the home
merchant have the same consid-
