The winning of the above entities
the Missouri Agricultural College to
four j. Ogden Armour scholarships
which amount to $3.50 each and are to
be awarded to needy students in the
College of Agriculture.
This is conceded to be the most
remarkable victory ever won in stock
judging contest by any institute.
On November ID, the same live
stock judging team from the Univer-
| sity of Missouri won the saddle horse
judging trophy, beautiful silver low
ing cup, valued at 800 and offered
by the American Saddle Breeders AS
sociation. The three highest individ-
ual scores in this contest, were made
by Missouri students, a fourth Miss
ouri man being tied for fourth place.
An exhibit of fat cattle consisting of
ten head of pure bred and grade
steers, which were exhibited at the In
ternational Live Stock Show by the

the University of Missouri, won during
the show season 1910:
Five championships.
One reserve championship.
Twenty-eight first prizes.
Seventeen second prizes.
Thirteen third prizes.
Four Fourth prizes.
Two fifth prizes.
Total 70 prizes.

serter'' which was champion calf at

ly awarded the reserve championship

To Save Young Criminals

In his message to the legislature
Governor Hadley will recommend the
creation of a reformatory where young
convicts may be imprisoned and treat
ed with such humane consideration.
under modern penal system, as will
prevent them from becoming harden
ed, in moral perceptions and criminal
tendencies and encourage and equip
them for better things in life. This
is infinitely better than the pres
ent system of keeping young criminals
and first offenders in the same
prison with hardened criminals and
treating them as hopeless enemies of
society. Surely such measure will
appeal to the manhood and patriotism
of the law makers. There is no valid
reason why great state like Missouri
should hesitate to save its young Grim
inals from the evils connected with the
present penitentiary system.

Last Call for Short Winters Course

The next term of the Short Winter
course in Agriculture begins at Col
umbia, January 8, 1911. The first
term which began November first is
just coming to close with the largest
enrolment in the history of the Uni
versity of Missouri. 176 men have
been studying agriculture for two
months, in the laboratories, demonstra-
ton rooms, lecture halls, barns,
stables and fields of the Missouri col
lege of Agriculture. This is 500
per cent increase over the enrolment
in the same term last year.
It should be understood that the
courses in the second term are COM
plete in themselves and not depend
ent upon the courses given during the
first term. Any young maD will find
no difficulty in entering January 8,
1911. There are no entrance re-
quirements. The work is practical
and given with the idea of immediate
application to farm conditions. Five
additional instructors have been en-
ployed for this work ALI prospective
students should present themselves
for enrolment promptly on the first
day of the term.

things to do. It is also increasing the
percentage of tenancy at very rapid
rate, which every intelligent man
knows means soil poverty and ultimate
soil destruction
SAYS GAMBLERS ARE TO, BLAME
Mr.. Jordan declares that there is
no good reason for the decline that
has occurred in corn prices. He at
tributes it to the manipulations of the
gamblers on the boards of trade. eff
there was too much, or surplus of
corn, it would not be unexpected.
he says, but there is no surplus.
There is comparatively no old corn on
the market and the situation is a dis
grace,
I'VE have been boosting for larger
yields, pleading for soil betterment,
and when see our efforts have been to
increase the farmers burdens rather
than tighten them.
Mr.. Jordan says the only remedy is
for the farmers to organize and refuse
to sell there products at low prices.

Farmers Lose on Corn

Columbia, Mo-, Dec. a. Missouri
farmers will not get enough out of this
years crop of corn to pay for their
labor, declares S. M. Jordan, director
of farmers institutes in the state.
I'VE have cultivated more acres
and husked more corn almost to the
extent of 90 million bushels, and will
get 7 million dollars less than we got
last year for smaller CROP" says Mr..
Jordan.
PROFIT ONLY $1.57 AN ACRE
Study these figures a moment:
The average yield reported is 1914
bushels per acre, and the price is 42.7
cents per bushel. gross per acre
$500. From the reports on file in
the Office of Secretary Wilson of the
state board of agriculture, that have
been made by large number of Miss
ouri farmers on the cost of growing
an acre of corn, counting rent or in
terest on the investment on the land.
it is found that the cost to produce an
acre of corn is $12.26. According to
these figures the farmer has a profit on
his summers work of $1.57 an acre.
This condition is driving our farm
ers into other lines of work as fast as
it is possible for them to find other

There seems to have been a story
in circulation in the south part of the
county that a large bunch of cattle
had been smuggled across the line re-
Gently by Messrs. Ingenthron and
Thurman, but these gentlemen had
certificates of inspection from both the
state and federal authorities, so there
is no foundation for a story of this
kind. II there is any smuggling done
in the future the smugglers will take
their own chances of going into court
and paying a fine as there is a reward
of $50 for the arrest and conviction of
such.

corn crop in the United States is 3,121
million bushels, or $50 million bushels
larger than last year, and 1914 million
bushels more than the largest previous
crop, that of 1906" said board OF
trade man whose attention was called
to Mr.. Jordan's statements. IF there
is anything in the law of supply and
demand, certainly the farmers cannot
expect to receive as much per bushel
for this years crop as for last years.
The present price of corn is sew
eral cents bushel higher than four
years ago, on crop nearly 200 million
bushels less than this years.
There is practically no export de-
mand for corn. Last months ship
ments out of the country were less
than Q million bushels. The reason is
that Europe is buying corn in Argen
tina cheaper than it can be bought in
this country. Argentina exported
about Is million bushels last month,
or more than six times the exports
from the United States"

Brings Aid to Needy Students

On November 26, 1910, the Live
Stock Judging Team from the Univer-
sity of Missouri won the International
Live Stock Judging Contest and broke
all previous records for individual
score and total team score, making a
total score of $50 points more than
the team ranking second.
The winning of this contest brings
to the University of Missouri a beauti-
full trophy valued at $500. With the
awarding of the highest individual
honors to w. R. Heckler of Missouri,
the University is awarded a beautiful
loving cup valued at $50.
A remarkable feature of this con-
test is the fact that the three highest
individual scores in the contest were
made by Missouri students and a
fourth man tied for fourth highest
score, while the fifth Missouri student
ranked eighth.
In other words, every member of
the Missouri team was in the honored
list of the ten highest men and each
made score higher than the best
record of any previous year.
