AS TO the states resources and pos

A Disgrace to Missouri.

Hadley has used the State Institu-
tons to build up his personal ma
chine, and his course has evoked
this singing rebuke from the st.
Joseph Observer:
There is not a physician at State
Hospital No. 2 who has ever had ex-
perience or knowledge Of the in
sane. Not one of them has hereto
fore had practical experience. Not
one of them has ever heretofore been
placed in contact with large num-
Der of helpless unfortunates who
need and require the service and ex-
perience of men trained in that direc-
ton. The fact that a Republican po-
litical board should inflict Unnecessary
suffering upon 1900 helpless unfor-
tunates is sad commentary on Gov.
Hadley's Republican board and an
outrage on Missouri.

that she had consumption, and the only
way to give her any relief was to per-

So I saw the Peruna Tablets adver-

six boxes, and never was bothered any

to make about 5-8 of a mile of road

say that the grader worked like a

longer we worked with it the better
pleased we became. 1t worked so
nicely that | handled it myself and am

The newly discovered one body,
which covers the entire face of six

ore, interspersed with very rich oxide
and native copper.
The richness of the strike, how
ever, is not considered ofsmuch more
importance than the fact that the

Seed Testing For Missouri Farm

| CTS.
A seed testing laboratory for the
benefit of Missouri farmers and seed
men is being operated at the Agricul-
tural College sat Columbia, in CO.
operation with the U. S. Department
of Agriculture. The farmers of Mis-
souri, are wasting annually thousands
of dollars in buying seeds of poor
quality and a large share of this could
be saved by having all seeds tested at
the laboratory. This work is done
free of charge and it is to the advan-
tage of every farmer to have this
work done.
Seeds should be sent in care of the
Seed Testing Laboratory, Columbia,
Mo. For small seeds like grasses
and clovers.a tablespoon full is suffi-
cient. For large seeds such as wheat,
oats, etc., three or four tablespoons
full should be submitted. These
samples should bear the name and
address of the sender and letter
should accompany them stating
whether purity test is wanted or
whether the seed is to be tested for
both purity and termination.
Where purity test is desired, a
report can be returned within week.
Where termination test is desired,
it takes few days longer.
The number of pernicious weeds
that are being distributed over the
state in the various kinds Of clovers,
grasses and other seeds are many of
them dangerous pests, and it is to the
interest Of every man to know exact
ly what he is sowing. He should
also know the terminating qualities
of the seeds he uses. This informa-
ton is at the disposal of the farmers
of Missouri, with no cost to them. It
is frequently possible to secure sam
pies of seeds from the various
sources; have them tested, and then
buy on the results of the tests. M.

THE PERFECT REPORTER.
EmpOria Gazette Gives DeScrip-
ton of the Man II is Look
ing For.
ing For.

"Your reporters are no good" said
a citizen this morning, with virtuous
Indignation. my aunt Henrietta
and her two daughters Gladys and
Imogene, have been visiting at my
house for several days, and there
hasn't been a word in the Emporia
Gazette about il"
A good many similar kicks are
heard in the course of a long summer
day, and although the management
of the Gazette has taken a good many
reporters into the basement and shot
them down in cold blood for neglect
of duty there is still room for criti-
ciSm.
The Gazette has long been looking
for the ideal reporter, and when he
is found expenses will not be consid-
cred if he can be signed up for
regular service.
The ideal reporter, to begin with,
should be mind reader. Most every
man in town knows something that
would be interesting if he would tell
it; and when he meets a reporter he
always forgets it, and says that he
doesn't know thing. Then in the
evening he says that there isn't a
jimdasted thing worth reading in the
paper, and he rolls it into wad and
throws it at the cat, and holds an in
dignation meeting. An expert mind
reader would get lot of information
from such man.
The ideal reporter should be trip
lets. 1t is absolutely necessary, at
all hours of the day, that he should
be in three places at once. He should
be at the depot taking notes of all
arrivals and departures, and he should
also be at the hotels copying bug
house signatures from the register,
and he should be simultaneously at a
meeting of the Ministerial Associa-
ton, for a great deal of hot stuff has
its origin there.
The ideal reporter will have his
private aeroplane, so that he can soar,
at great speed, over the town in
every direction, making notes of all
the doings in the various back yards,
and putting down accurate descrip-
tons of the family washing which
may be hung on the clothes lines.
This machine will also enable him to
look into second story windows and
see whether people keep their bee
rooms in respectable order.
The ideal reporter will be a clair
voyant, and capable of going into g
trance at any moment, during which
trance he will read the future anc
thus be able to be on the spot wher
ever anything important happens.
He will also be prize fighter an6
a doctor of laws; and he will have {
thorough knowledge of the millinery
business, so that he can write up re
ceptions; he should be a practicins
physician and private detective ant
a good cook and he should have ;
pair of seven-league boots. 8 An,
young man answering these require
ments can have a steady job on tn,
Gazette, and he can name his owl
salary.
