The State primary law is, prob
ably, filed with inconsistencies
and errors, as charged, but be.
fore attempting to discard it, a
trial should be given the law to
determine whether the people
viii approve Che primary for the
future. AT this time there is no
question that the mass Of the
people want a State primary
along the lines indicated, and
they would almost certainly re-
sent an attempt at this time to
wipe out the law. Nor, in such
case, would they approve the
proposed plan to call an extra
session of the Legislature to
draft and pass a new law that
would stand the test Of the
courts. There would be no as
surance that the new law would.
be any better than the old one:
it would hardly be possible to
get such a law through in season
for this years election; an extra
session would entail an expense
to the people Of $4,000, and
above all, the change would
create so much confusion in the
minds Of the people that it would
seriously affect the results Of
the election. We hone the law
will be permitted to stand until
the next session Of the Legisla-
ture, when it can be amended
as desired without added cost
to the people of the State, and
without interference with this

Platte County Tobacco Records in Danger.
Platte County win have to look
to her laurels as the star Mis-
souri, tobacco raising section if
the plans of prominent farmers
in a number of other counties are
carried out as they most likely
viii be. For a number of years
passed the farmers of Platte
County have been getting rich
through their fine crops of Bur
ley tobacco and now, that unset
tied conditions in the Burley sec
ton of Kentucky have opened
wide the market there, prom
inent planters in a number of
Missouri counties which experts
claim fully as able as Platte to
raise fine tobacco crops, are
going to set out many acres at
once.
This IS just the time to SOW
plant beds and the story goes
these enterprising farmers are
getting their fine Burley seed
for nothing from a concern in
Louisville, the Louisville Tobac-
co Warehouse Company.
This firm is actually said to
be giving away the finest kind of
Burley seed free Of charge to
any farmer who win plant it.
Platte County planters have
found Burley raising far more
profitable than any other crops
they have ever raised. They re
port three or four times as much
profit per acre as they could
possibly get from any other
crop. AS high as 2400 pounds
an acre has been yielded in
Platte County, and the average
runs between this figure and
1900 pounds. Whenit is learned
that they have been getting from
II IL to 13 81 cents a pound for
this Burley tobacco, right in the
Louisville market, it is easily
seen what a bonanza Burley to
bacco raising has become in
Platte County.
This therefore would seem to
offer about the best money MAX
ing opportunity to Missouri
planters that they have ever had.
Gossip from several counties
whose soil is practically ident-
cal with that of Platte County
has it that many of the most
prominent planters are going to
take advantage Of this unusual
chance to make triple profits and
are going to plant lots Of Burnley.
Old timers who recall that Mis-
souri, was once one Of the largest
tobacco producing states are de-
Lighted at the fine opportunity
thus put in the way Of Missouri
planters now
