MissOuri's First Railroad.

As the Oldest citizens Will remember,
Hon James r. Allen was an original
character. He was a Virglnian by
birth, and came TO Ray county 10 an
early day. OF the blood of one of the
first families of Virginia, he was enter
prlsing and progressive.
Mr.. Allen built the first railroad in
Missouri wooden track running
from "Old Brick Mill" (north of Lex
lngton JuRctlon) to the M issouri river,
a distance OF about four miles.
On this "pioneer" railroad Jud. Q
Thomas McGinnis was conductor and
driver, Mr.. McGinnls is the oldest
railroad conductor in Missouri.
Mr.. Allen was a great lover Of good
humor, aud would exploit" a prac-
tical joke even if it was at bis own
cost. II was at a time when an old
darKey was driving on the little rail-
road. Mr.. Allen was out hunting, and
seeing the "mule. car" coming up from
the river he hid in the 'cat-tails,n and,
just as the IRAN was nearest him on the
bottom stretch, he fired his rifle over
the mules long ears-the old darkey
driver was fast asleep and the lines
down-and away went he donkey,
driver and dray" pelI nell up the
track at a wild gate.
The car was loaded with jugs, jars

Seed Wheat.

Original experiments BY the Univer-
slty Of Missouri With eighty varieties
Of " heat show that the annual yield OF
this grain might be increased mere
> 900 600 bushels if the farmers Of the
STATE would give more attention to the
selection of seed. Prof. F. B Nun
ford, acting dean of the agricultural
department, under whose direction the
experiments have been performed,
says:
"a large number Of accurate expert
menls show couclusively that large
plump grains of wheat always give
larger and more vigorous plants and a
better yield than small grains. One
farmer who at the request of the col
lege screened his wheat, sowing only
the larger grains for several years,
thus increased his yield five bushels an
acre. on the state farm where the ex-
periments are under the immediate
direction of the college a similar in
crease has been apparent in almost
every case where we have used full
plump grains tor seed. These results
agree almost exactly with those secured
by the Tennessee Experiment Station
which found that Poole wheat grown
from large grains yielded twenty
seven bushels an acre, while the same
variety from small grains yielded only
twenty-five and six tenths bushels.
''Mos of the large grains are pro-
duced in large, vigorous heads, con.
tanning many kernels and thus it fol-
lows that selecting large grains for
seed results in selecting them from the
most productive heads.
"The simplest method Of selecting
the largest seed is to screen out the
smaller with an ordinary tanning
mill.
Screens are manufactured especially
for this purpose that do the work
thoroughly and they may be had at a
reasonable price. A little attention to
the selection of seed wheat this fall
will increase next summers harvest at
least ten percent.
