souri, spent 100000 to help solve the
problem of farming, Next year II bills

Of 500, 900. $4,000 Of this was eX-
pended through the Missouri agricul-
tural college at Columbia. The re-
naming S25, 900 was expended through
the three state normal schools. The
work done by the agricultural college
consist, Of teaching, lectu.ing to farm
ers, institutes and experiments. 100
students were taught last year and
institutes held in l41 towns Import
ant experiments were also Carried on.
Some idea OF the Importance of these
experiments may be obtained from the
fact that through them means of pre-

is that of teaching. The most Import
ant LEGISLATION now pending provides
for agricultural instruction in high
schools.

INCREASING CORN YIELDS.
Importan, Publication OF the Missouri tx.
pertinent Station.

Recent investigation at the Mis-
souri, experiments station indicate / hat
the average corn yields in Missouri
may he increased ten bushels per acre
by inexpensive methods. The informa
tion ON how to accomplish these results
is contained in circular Of information
Number 10, by Nj. +. Miller, a copy Of
which can be had by addressing the
director of the experiment station,
Columbia, Missouri.
The most common cause OF low corn
yields is poor stand of corn. a poor
stand Of corn is usually the result Of
planting see that will not grow or dis
tributing the corn uneveny in the hills.
The experiment station has carefully
investigated seed corn taken during
February, 1905 from the cribs OF Mis-
sour corn growers and the result shows
that only 63 per cent Of such corn will
grow. To get good stand at least 30
per cent should grow vigorously.
The above indicates that seed corn
can not be safely selected from the crib,
but should be carefully selected from
the field as follows: Select from de-
sirable stalks only those ears which
show desirable characteristics. Place
the ears at once in small piles or in
shallow layers in some dry room orcrib
VIII ere they will become thoroughly
dry before hard freezing weather Corn
must not be allowed 10 freeze before II
is thoroughly dry. Corn stored in
large hoaps or in tight boxes before
being thoroughly dried tends 10 heat
and injurc the vitality, Dry corn
quickly and keepit dry that the vitality
may be preserved.
Plant good varieties OF corn On the
experiment station fields some cars OF
the Boone county white variety yielded
at the rate Of forty-fve bushels pei
acre: other ears on the same soil
treated in the same way yielded ninety
bushels per acre. Pure bred seed corr
is much more productive than ordi
nary sorts.
Whatever the variotyof corn farm
er may grow he will always profit by
very careful selection of seed He
should practice system OF corn breed
ing: that is, he should always grow hi
seed corn in part Of the field or in {
plot by itself. This plot should bt
planted with the most perfect ears OBJ
taiuable and seed corn for the mex
year always selected from this area
He will, in this way, improve his corn
both in yield and quality, and he will
find it pays handsomely for the time
and trouble necessary.
This valuable bulletin describing
the best methods of increasing corr
yields in Missouri may he had free b.

Western students Are Independent.

The appeal to philaDthropists, by
President Harris Of Amherst college,
for money with which to huy dress suits
for his poor boys, seems positively ridic.
ulous to the students Of the Missouri
state university. Over half OF the
1875 students of the university are SELF
supporting and % are working daily to
pay their expenses, but they do not
look with favor upon a suggestion from
college president of dress suit dona.
tion to fill out the wardrobe for special
occasions.
A Freshman in the law department
who has supported himself for several
years while completing the academic
course, comes forth with typical
opinion: "Would the boys OF the uni
versity OF Missouri appreciate such a
contribution for their benefit? Not If
known them. The average boy Of
the university Of Missouri does not own
dress suit Most Of them never wore
one. Some OF them could afford it and
some could not, but the time has not
yet come when IL is the first ambition
OF the Missouri student TO wear dress
suit. Every man OF the university Of
Missouri is working for and expecting
sometime 10 reach position in society
where dress suits are worn, but he is
thinking OF the position not OF the dress.
Into that position he will take individ.
iial independence and strong charac-
ter. and when he wears a dress suit it
will be his own; 1t will add nothing TO
his sef-respect and take nothing away,
but will be TO bin only one Of the con-
ventionalities which society has i'm.
posed upon him. The man who iswill.
ing to take the shortcut by receiving
| the donation of dress suit through a
charitable contribution, is not OF our
kind. Only as q son Of Adams is he re.
lated TO us"
