To Use Motor Plows

The Lamar Democrat tells of
the purchase of two motor plows
by couple of progressive Barton
county farmers living out near
Golden City:
THE horse was driven from the
stage coach by the locomotive, he
was put from in front of the street
car by the electric trolley, he is, or
will be PIT, eff the public high
way by the automobile. Are he
and his brother, the mule. to be
driven from their last stronghold,
the plow? 1t begins to look like it.
1.-TWO enterprising farmers, Ed
Joy and ]. NJ. Lewis, down in Col
den City township, have embarked
upon an experiment that is likely
to have no little effect upon the
use of horse flesh, here in Barton
county, Each one has purchased
a twenty horse power gasoline en-
CINE, with seven fourteen inch gang
plows and a two section harrow
attached.
ut takes two men and twenty
gallons of gasoline at fifteen cents
The Jasper news. [volume] (Jasper, Missouri) 1898-1924, 1910-12-22

a gallon, to run the big pillow. 1t
will turn over as much dirt as
three gang plows, run by fifteen
mules and three men. The price
of the gasoline is not any more
than the feed for the fifteen mules,
one mans labor is saved. The
fifGeenmules will cost from twenty
five hundred to thirty-fve hun
dred dollars. The big steam pillow,
all complete, costs but eighteen
hundred dollars.
"Mr. Lewis has already put in
three hundred acres of wheat with
his pillow. This would have taken
great raft of men and mules or
horses. 1t is coming to the point
where the horse will be kept, like
the dog, as an expensive and
rather troublesome pet?"

Last Call For The Short Winter
Course.

The next term of the short win
ter course in agriculture begins at
Columbia January 3, 1911. The
first term which began November
first is just coming to close with
the largest enrolment in the his
tory of the university of Missouri.
176 men have been studying agri-
culture for two months, in the lab
oratories, demonstration rooms,
lecture halls, barns. stables and
fields of the Missouri college of ag-
riculture. This is 500 per cent
increase over the enrolment in
the same term last year.
1t should be understood that the
courses in the second term are
complete lin themselves and not
dependent upon the courses given
during the first term. Any young
man will find no difficulty in enter
ing January 3, 1911. There are
no entrance requirements. The
work is practical and given with
the idea of immediate application
to farm conditions. Five addition
al instructors have been employed
for this work. All prospective
students should present themselves
for enrolment promptly on the
first day of the term.

THEY SAY THEY
TALKED WITH SPIRITS.
Ghostly Manifestations Puzzle
Local Yoang Men Who
Seek Metaphysical
Knowledge.

Several Jasper young men have
lately become interested in the
mystic cult known as spiritualism
and have been holding nightly Sc
ances with what some of them con-
slider very startling success. Auth
critics on spiritualism say. that if
any small group of people will
meet by appointment at the same
place several nights in succession
and devote themselves seriously to
the tasl; they will certainly get re.
suits. 1t was to test this; theory
that the young men began their
meetings, which are held in the
second story of the Wells building
in the room formerly occupied by
c. E. Keeling, the photographer.
I'VE didn't get thing the first
night" one of them told the writ.
er. I'VE turned out the lights
and waited three or four hours,
but nothing doing. But the sec
ond night we began to hear mys-
FERROUS rappings, and the table
around which we sat began to be-
have very queerly. 1t would
culver and shake and occasionally
rise several inches at one end in
spite of our efforts to hold it down.
We got into communication with
our visitor, too, but didn't learn
whose spirit it was. One of the
boys asked it to answer with two
raps for No." and three for Yes"
and we got several answers, learn
ing that the spirit was that of
woman who had never lived in this
part of the country; in fact we
failed to determine where she did
come from, because the answers
frequently ceased for long periods,
Asked to move the table, the spirit
complied by moving II nearly half
across the room. Sometimes we
turned on the light to see if any of
US were responsible for the mani
festations, but they continued
wnen we all sat back with our
hands off the table. There were
lots of things none of US could ex=
plain at all. Some Of US didn't
expect anything at all when We
started in, but we're full iedged
believers now, and no mistake"
Lately the young men claim to
have heard voices all about them
in the room, and are getting quite
excited about it. They haven't
admitted anyone else to their cir
Gle yet, for fear the charm viii be
broken, they say.

dead bodies inhumanely mangled.

uead DOdleS lnnumanely mangled.
McCrady says: Another man found
nine little fugitive children wander
ing in the woods; some had been cut
and left for dead, others had been
found in the bloody fields scalped."
There was no trace of little Ann,
the baby child who was carried off
in the arms of an Indian on the day
of the battle. After consulting togeth-
er, and realizing their unprotected
condition, the Scotch-Irish settlers de-
cided to go back to Waxhaw, where
they found protection.
After his return to Waxhaw Patrick
Calhoun met and married the daugh-
ter of the Rev. Alexander Craighead.
and after her death and his return
to WaXhaw he met and married Miss
Maude Caldwell, the mother Of Caro-
lina's great statesman, John c. CAL
houn.
Five years after the massacre Of
Long Cane, treaty having been made
with the Indians, all the prisoners
were gievn up. Upon the day appoint
ed William Calhoun attended the
meeting with a faint hope that he
might find his little Ann, who was
not over Z years old He was told
by her mother that the child had a
scar on the back Of her neck caused
by burn. Watching with eagerness
each prisoner that was brought for
ward, he at last saw a dainty little
girl led out and instantly recognized
his lost child, and readily identified
her by the scar. She could not speak
word Of English and just a little
Indian. When little Ann was taken
captive she was the baby, but on her
return home she found that the stork
had visited the Calhoun nest and left
her sveral little sisters and bothers.
The young Calhoun children were:
Patrick, Rachel, (who afterwards be-
came my great-grandmother.) Esther,
William, Ezekiel, Nancy and Alexan-
der, so this worthy couple, William
and Agnes Calhoun, had five sons
and six daughters. Little Ann grew up
and married Isaac Matthews.
History says that Patrick Calhoun
and the other settlers returned to
Long Cane, and that the move to
Waxhaw was only a temporary one,
until they could secure protection
from the state, and that settlement
was afterwards protected by the Ran
gers, who were paid by the state,
and that Patrick Calhoun was made
their captain and served without pay.
Patrick Calhoun erected a stone to
the memory Of his mother on the spot
where she was so brutally murdered.
The inscription reads:
In memory of Mrs
Catharine Calhoun.
Aged 76 years, who
with % others was
