SUGGESTS DRAINAGE
FOR MISSOURI FARMS
Asserts System Will Improve Value
of Land and Increase Product.

Columbia, Mo-: The continued rains
this season throughout Missouri and
other states in this section may at
least have been of some service by
bringing the attention Of farmers to
the importance of drainage.
The United States department of
agriculture has just completed some
important Investigations along this
line, which go to show that good
system OF drainage never fails to give
returns that more than pay for the
work involved.
To this question special attention
was devoted. The excavating of ditch
es should be done by workmen furnish
ing their own tools and who contract
to dig and grade the ditch, lay the
tiles, and cover them securely with
few inches OF earth, at a certain price
per rod.
The profit derived from draining
wet land is moro apparent when it is
considered that the same labor that
is bestowed upon undrained land will
produce from 40 20 80 per cent greater
yield OF cereals where the land is
drained. It was found that soils which
require artificial fertilizing frequently
become very productive when drain
ed
During the six years in which tile
drainage has been practiced in this
country, many machines for opening
the trenches for tiles have been in
vented and manufactured, which
when tested, failed to meet the re
quirements. Doubtless no machine
will ever be made that will meet
the requirements of all kinds of land
There are, however, a few which seem
TO work satisfactorily where the
ground is sufficiently firm to support
the machine, where the earth is moi
extremely mucky and sticky, anC
where draining of considerable extern

long-lost son.
For eight years Mrs. Lorvig has
been searching for her lost boy. and
some time ago one of her numerous
advertisements was answered by a
Missouri convict, who pretended to be

The part was played by Peyton TO
answer such notice in hopes of Sc
curing money and clothes before

in the case of Mrs. Lorvig. who for
warded money and other articles to

4. That he had the power to de-
tain military prisoners for so leng
as he saw fit.
6. That the state courts could not
interfere with military prisoners.
Hence, that they had no power to dis
charge military prisoners.
A test case was made when Charles
II. Meyer. president of the Western
Federation Of Miners. was arrested at
Telluride by the military authorities.
The Judge Of a district court ordered
his release. No attention was paid to
the order. Application to the state
Supreme court for a writ of habeas
corpus was made. The Supreme
court has just declared that the gov
ernor has authority to suspend the
writ of habeas corpus. Other conten-
lions of the governor also are upheld.
In other words, under the conditions
in Colorado, his power is supreme.
BY this decision. the main conten-
ton against Gov. Peabody's action in
placing certain mining districts under
military control, and in giving mine
owners protection for their workers,
is legally swept aside. He is acting
entirely within his powers.

Coelledo, Mo-, June 6.-Mr. Adolph
Gerhardt, chemist and druggist of this
place, was so Ill with his back and
kidneys that he couldn't work. He was
very bad and didn't seem to get any
better till he began to use Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. He was so delighted with
the results he got from this remedy
that he wrote:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills are a God

Many such cases are being report
ed from all over the state and Dodd's
Kidney Pills, solely on their merits
and by the wonderful and perfect cureg
they work are established as the
standard remedy for bRckache and all

pated in by distinguished Missourians
and held in the presence OF as many
Missourians as could find seats or
standing room in the building, and with
a brilliant evening reception, the Mis-

formally opened Friday.
The opening of the pavilion hac
been looked forward to since the open
ing Of the Exposition by persons from
every part of the State who had de
cided to make the dedication the &C
casion Of their FIRST visit to the Worlds
Fair. Thousands OF eXcursionists
from points in the State arrived at the
Worlds Fair in time to witness the
parade that preceded the exercises at
the pavilion.
Apart from the dedicatory exercises
OF the forenoon and early afternoon,

noon and a reception in the evening
held out attractions to the visitors,
and the pavilion was crowded from
O'Clock in the morning till almost mid
night. Miss Alice Roosevelt was one
of the visitors TO the building in the
afternoon.
At 9 o'clock in the morning Gov
ernor Dockery and his staff were es-
corted from West Pine boulevard and

$4,000 SETTLERS
TO TAKE CLAIMS
ROSEBUD RESERVATION MECCA
OF LAND SEEKERS FROM
EASTERN CITIES.

The management OF the Chicago.
Milwaukee & st. Paul railway is plan
ming to carry between 10000 and u.s.
900 people to the Rosebud Indian res
ervation in South Dakota, to be open
ed by the United States government
for settlement late next month. A
very large percentage Of the land
seekers will come from the crowded
sections of the east, and special trains
viii be run from this city to accommo-
date them and those from the central
west who viii participate in the draw
ing OF lots.
President Roosevelt's proclamation
specifies approximately $4,000 acres
to be distributed 10 the lucky ones in
tracts Of 100 acres each. This means
that there win be about 2,40O quarter
sections parceled out. Judging from
the inquiries being received by the
railroads directly interested, It Is be-
lieved that more than $4,000 people
will try for the lucky lots on the day
Of the drawing.
Many of the unlucky ones will re-
turn to their old haunts, but the rail-
roads believe that thousands of them
will buy lands in districts adjacent to
the reservation. The industrial de-
partment of the st. Paul system is
planning to care for the disappointed
ones by arranging for them to visit
other lands.
Frederic A. Miller, general passen-
ger agent Of the st. Paul said: I'VE
are receiving an average of 400 in
quiries a day from all parts of the
east and central west, and after the
FIRST of next month this average will
certainly be at least a thousand. It
will be one of the greatest movements
Of the kind in the history of the ma
ton, for the Rosebud lands are about
the last Of the governments desirable
farming property to be opened for de-
velopment.
Nothing will be left undone to care
for the great crowds, and every atten-
ton will be shown both the lucky and
the unlucky ones. We expect a big

ed parts of the east, and many OF
these men are going to South Dakota

whether they get free lands or not.
believe that such places as Yankton,.
Geddes, Platte and Chamberlain are
to become good, hustling, substantial
cities, and that within o very short
time. Much important building for
these towns has already been planned
and the structures will be put up to

NAVAL LESSONS OF THE WAR
Struggle in the East Shows New
Methods Necessary.

Methods Necessary.
The present war has demonstrated
that in operations around harbor
mouths torpedo boat destroyers and
mines are useful both for the attack
ers and defenders. Harbors. to be
well defended, must be well provided
with torpedo boats and mines. An
attacking feet directed against an
enemys fleet in being" lying in a
hostile harbor must likewise be well
provided with torpedo boats and
mines.
But for the mastery of the high
seas big ships which carry big guns
are necessary. On the open ocean
when storm blows up, a torpedo flo-
tilla would be useless on a distance
cruise.
Big ships are necessary to protect
commerce, to destroy commerce, and
to convoy army bearing transports.
Ships which can carry big guns are
useful in joint land and naval at.
tacks. The Japanese naval artillery
demorali2ed the Russian left on Nan
shan hill and made the success of the
final assault possible.
But what kind of big boats are
best? The present kind of battle
ships or the present kind of armored
cruisers? Or could not some new
kind of big warship be adopted which
would be better than either? The
modern armored vessels are, built to
resist shells-nRmely, attacks above
water. All their defensive arrange.
ments have been put above the water
line. TorDedoes and mines attack
below the water in the unprotected
regions where no defense has been
prepared. In naval operations near
harbor mouths, where the use OF mines
and torpedoes is feasible, the offense
has now distinctly gained the advan-
tage. The inventors must now de.
wise better means Of submarine de-
tense.
Perhaps they will resort to dipIo-
macy for one thing and obtain inter
national assen, to the proposition
that no mine may be laid outside the
three mile limiI. Perhaps they will
construct a new and more perfect tor.
pedo net to enVelop the hull OF the
ship. Perhaps they will tighten the
upper works OF the ship and give ad-
ditional buoyancy to the whole. so
that contact with mine will not re.
suit In immediate sinking. Certainly
they will hereafter furnish all ar.
mored ships with more complete
searchlight system to discover hostile
torpedo boats, and a more effective
rapid fire system to destroy them.
Admirals win learn the lessons al.
ready assimilated by generals and
will marshal their forces IN more OK
tended order, throwing before them
q thicker screen Of scouts.

where directed 1t fell, instead, upon
thousands of union wOrkmen in the
hills, who, although engaged for the
eight hour day, were ordered to cease
work in those mines that supplied the
offending smelters with ores. The
result in many camps was a walk
out.
The succeeding result was an at
tempt on the part of the owners to
reopen their mines with nonunion
labor. In the part that labor and poll
tics play in Colorado, the admins
tration of civil duties falls, in many
mining cities and towns upon au-
thorities who are out of. sympathy
with nonunion methods. Thus the
owners of mines were harassed in
many ways. There were mysterious
disappearances. People unsympa-
thetic with the cause of the strikers
were driven from communities. Final
ly, mine buildings we're blown up
with dynamite. and mine workings
destroyed.
In this crisis the mine owners ap-
pealed to the governor of Colorado
for protection. The situation was
strained at three points-in Teller
county, where are the mining camps
of Victor and Cripple Creek; at Tellu-
ride in San Miguel county, and at
Idaho Springs in Clear Creek county.
In the last place union workmen sus-
pected of blowing up the Sun and
Moon mine property were driven
from town by the citizens Of the
place. This drastic action is worth
noting, for, as a result of the high
state of feeling in Colorado, it was
upheld in the popular opinion. At
all events, troops were not needed
at Idaho Springs
Gov. Peabody declared martial law
in Telleri and San Miguel counties
early in December. Some OF the mil
itary proceedings in each of these
counties appear to have been extreme
but Gov. Peabody has declared that
no defense of his actions is needed.
Union leaders were arrested, and in
some cases these leaders we're deport-
ed. State courts were aoppealed to
by members of the union who felt
the power of the military law, but
the rulings of these courts had no
effect on the representatives OF the
state government Injunctions were
merely ignored. The governor con
tended for these points:
/. That he had sole power to deter
mine when a state of insurrection ex
listed in any county in the state
2. That the courts had no power to
interfere with his exercise Of this pre-
rogative.
