The State Corn Show at Columbia

The State Corn Show, which
will be held at Columbia during
Farmers Week." January Z to
IL, 1907, promises much of interest
to Missouri corn growers. The
show will be held under the aus
pices of the Missouri Corn Grow
ers' Association, an organization
OF farmers that is accomplishing
much in the development and dis
tribution of improved varieties of
corn throughout the State. The
exhibition will be held in connec-
ton with the annual meeting of
this Association, which convenes
each year at Columbia, together
with the other State agricultural
organizations during the second
week in January.
The corn show last year COM
prised over one hundred and fifty
entries of fine corn, and it is be-
lieved that the number this year
will be three or four times as great.
The premium list has been COM
pleted, and, including the prizes
offered in the Boys Contest by the
State Fair Board, aggregates $1,000.
The sweepstakes prize for the
show is a Great Western Manure
Spreader, valued at S120. The
State Board of Agriculture, tho
jamestown Exposition Commits
sion, and the Columbia CONNER
cial Club have each offered 5000 in
prizes, which range from $25 down.
Two $50 silver trophies are also on
the premium list,
1t is suggested that every corn
growing community organize a To-
cal corn show, and that the win
ming samples be sent to the State
Corn Show to represent the COM
munity. The Secretary of the
Board of Agriculture will gladly
send men to speak at such meet
ings, without cost to the co1nmu-
nifty, where sufficient interest is
manifested to guarantee meet

Obituary.

Death has visited another home
in Sabula and God has claimed
our dear beloved brother, Samue ell
j. Shy, who died September IL,
1906, at his home in Sabula, Mo.
Brother Shy leaves q wife, one
daughter and three sons and many
relatives and friends to mourn his
death. He was born in New Mad
rid county, Mo-, May 2, 1880,
where he lived till he was twelve
years old, and then went to Ken
lucky and stayed until he was
twenty-five years old. From there
he came back to Missouri, where
he spent the rest of his life, except
while he was in the army. He
joined the First Missouri regiment
in 1861, and served four years in
the Confederate army. He fought
at the battle of Pilot Knob, the
battle of Shiloh and many other
engagements. During Gen. Prices
raid he was wounded twice. He
lost his eyesight in 1889, and bore
his affliction with great patience
and without murmur. He was
married in 1869 to Amanda Farris,
their home being in Sabula for
several years. But the greatest
battle he ever fought and the
noblest surrender he ever made
was two months before he died,
and the last two months of his life
was the best of all, for he had
taken Jesus as his personal savior.
Though he had once known Christ
before, his last days were the
happiest of his life. He sang
praises to God, and the last words
were "Jesus, come quickly" This
leaves the blessed assurance that
we need Jesus to 60 through the
shadow of death to the bereaved
family and relatives and friends.
Look up to God, who is q father to
the widow and orphan; and Jesus,
who is friend that sticketh closer
than brother. / realize that dear
brother Shy has made a grand and
glorious change from earth's tolls
and cares to heavens Joy and
peace and happiness, where God
shall wipe away all tears from the
eyes, and there shall be no death,
neither sorrow nor crying; neither
shall there be any more pain, for
the former things are passed away.
And may all die a triumphant
death as it's our privilege. May
the dear Lord bless the broken
hearted mother and children is my
prayer. ISAAC.

GETTING RID OF PIRATES.
How Band Was Quickly Disposed OF
in South China.

From the South China Post
reader who arrived at Hongkong from
WuchoW informs us that on Sunday, when
he left Wuchow there was a great clang-
ing of gongs and blowing of whistles. The
people were in a most excited state of
mind and crowded the streets and house
tops
Inquiry as to this unusual state of affairs
ELECTED the information that seventeen of
men who had kept the inhabitants in ter
ror for long time had paid the penalty
of their misdeeds. 1t being impossible for
the authorities to effect their arrest In the
ordinary way, the taotai of the district en-
ticed the robbers to his yamen by making
an offer of free pardon and other induce
ments to abandon their nefarieus prac-
tees.
No fewer than seventeen of the ruffians
swallowed the bait Sixteen entered the
yamen and were promptly surrounded by
troops and made prisoners. One man es-
capped from the compound into the street
and ran for dear life. Another-the seven
teenth man-suspected a trap and took to
his heels without entering the official resi-
dence Meanwhile the troops were not
They were promptly disarmed and without
much ado were stripped and cut into a
thousand pieces.
The enraged populace were not long in
securing the two runaways, and they met
their end in the same manner in the streets.
There was great rejoicing afterward, and
IL is hoped that this lesson will have a
deterrent effect on others whose haunts
may be in the neighborhood.

locations. Some are on railroads and others
are so situated that spur branches of tracks
could be built to them at no very great
expense or trouble. Georgetown offers
many Inducements to those seeking water
front facilities Years ago the Baltimore
and Ohio started to build a branch line
: through Linden to Georgetown, which was
partly completed. Some difficulty arose
with an ice company. and the railroad was
forced to abandon the work for the time
being. Now nothing stands in the way,
and there are magnificent properties that
can be obtained for this purpose in the most
desirable localities. Georgetown Is also
desirable section for homes of the smaller
class, has a market of its own, churches
of every denomination, good schools and
everything that the workingman is likely
TO ask for or require. Along the river front
from Giersboro 10 Shepherds Landing
there are some excellent sites, and the
vicinity is said to be healthful and offering
both railroad and river facilities for trans
portation. Property through this section
be had at low terms, ii is said, the
owners being anxious to attract buyers to
start settlements and build homes.

of houses to rent Just now. There Is no
market fore them in great numbers. But
that makes no difference. If the Jobbers and
Shippers Association will get some facte-
ries here we will build them any number of
these hsases at low rental or sell them
to the workmen on the installment plan for
a trif1e down and less than what would be
the rent In other cities Before the factory
can build its foundation. If 1t is an industry
of any magnitude, we will have houses
ready This class of dwellings can be built
substantially and well in two months, ana
there is an abundance of property in the
northeast and southwest and other parts
of the city on which to build such homes.
Matter Of Supplies.
The question of supplies is one that gets
close to the workman. He must have
seasonable market or else he will not set
tie Washington has what is conceded to
be one of the best markets in the country,
but 1t never had the reputation of being
a cheap market.
ssThe Washington market" said a whole
sale commission merchant, is probably a
tribe more expensive than that of some
