The admission OF Arizona and New
Mexico into the sisterhood of states
will end for a long time the making
of any new states, in all probability.
In the last twenty years ten states
have been admitted. The two Dako-
tas Montana and Washington came in
in 1889, Idaho and Wyoming in 1890.
Utah in 1896. Oklahoma in 1907. and
now New Mexico and Arizona Alaska
is the sole remaining territory in the
United States which is unorganiZed.
and it is likely TO remain so for many
years. From time to time there is
talk in California OF splitting that
state at the Tehachapi range of noun
tains. which is recognized as the di-
vision line OF Northern and Southern
California. II is extremely improbable
that this will happen. however. As

Another Missouri farm is to be given
away. this time in exchange for the
best plan for conducting chicken
ranch. Perhaps the lure of no other
rural occupation is so Irresistible for
man and woman as that OF raising
poultry. This is largely due. of course.
to the fact that it does not require a
great deal of capital to engage in it.
and because it is business from
which returns are quick and usually
satisfactory. II does not call for a
large acreage to engage in this bust
ness of chickenraising. hence it is an
industry that should be encouraged in
every way possible. OF course. many
who engage in it fail. but as Il rule this
will be found to be due to the individ-
ual rather than to the industry. For
this reason, the plan of the State Poul-
try Board to endeavor to ascertain the
best possible plan for assuring success
to the luan or woman who takes up
poultry raising as a means OF earning
a livelihood is n COmmendable one.
Missouri needs successful chicken
farmers, and lots of them. for there
Is market in this great state for
vast product of nest and coop.

LARGEST CIRCULATION
IN BOONE COUNTY.
FOR A SQUARE DEAL.

The proposed constitutional amend
ment providing for the separation of
state and local sources of revenue is a
proposition for the square deal in tax
alton.
Under the present system taxation
the state. Complete separation would
abolish the expense friction and vain
attempt to bring about equalization
With separation it would he possible to
place every tax in that branch OF the
government, local or state, which is
best adapted to administer it. Separa-
ton would give practical home rule
in matters relating TO taxation.
The amendment does not increase or
decrease taxation. 1t abolishes the
state property tax and separates the
sources of state and local taxation
1t affords an opportunity to place tax
alton equitably and upon wealth that is
best able to meet the burden of taxa
tion.
The petition for the submission of
the amendment to the people should
