Wanted, A Washerwoman.

Forsyth is getting decidedly short
of female labor. During the past few
months two women who made practice
of taking in washing have moved away.
One woman who took in sewing has
aceepted place with the School of
the Ozarks and another is shortly going
to leave town. Some of those who
have been doing laundry work are
going to take up sewing, thus causing
a further decrease in the supply of
washerw omen.
Wherefore a good part of Forsyth is
in trouble. Some of the bachelors are
thinking of taking a correspondence
course in laundry, SO. they can take
their clothes to the river and wash them
themselves, and many housewife who
is really not physically able is compell-
ed to do her own washing. If anyone
knows of any women who are looking
for location where they can take in
all the washing they want to do send
them to Forsyth. They will be receiv-
ed with open arms.

A CORRESPONDENT sends In ar
item boosting a certain candidate
for the nomination to office on. the
Republican ticket with the request
that We publish it. This we must
decline to do For we feel that
as the party organ we should give
every party candidate a fair and
equal show as far as this paper is
concerned. We cannot boost one
candidate without knocking on an
other more or.less. This we are
not going 10 do. We have no de-
sire to pose as party dictator.
So go it boys, and may the best
man win. II you get the nomina-
tion we will help you beat the fell
low on the other ticket. But it is
useless TO ask us to help You beat
a fellow Republican for we won't
do it.

Don't Worry, Jesse.

In letter received from Jesse
Tolerton, game and fish commiss-
ioner he requests US TO say that the
statement that he intends TO at
tempt to stock the state with fox
and buffalo is untrue. He say S
that rhe statement originited with
] S. Horne Of Kansas City an ami
NAL importer, who was simply try
ing to advertise his business Mr.
Tolerton says that all he is trying
to do is to restock the state with
game birds. He is going simply
to replace those killed by the hunt
ers who pay hunters license. The
farmers feel that birds destroy in
sects that damage crops and it is
the intention of his department to
aid the farmers to maintain the
supply of birds.
In denying the report that he
was going to replenish the supply
OF foxes and throw in a few buffalo
for good measure, Mr.. Tolerton-is
going to UNNECESSARY. trouble. For
no one who has read the report
believed that it originated with
him or that he even thought of do
ing such thing. Not even the
people who have seized on the ru-
NOR for a little political capital
believed that it was true. And
Jesse should know that whatever
he does there are people who will
misrepresent him and find fault
with him. Neither should he for
get. that the people of Taney know
who these people are and what is
their motive.s

al prices for clubs. This rate will be

$3.50 for club of ten. In this con-
nection we want TO make few state
ments and explanations.
The subscriber taking advantage o

for the coming year for IS or 80 cents
Now next year don't come to us IN
dividually and expect US to give you
the paper a year for the same price, for
we can't do. it. We can't afford to
make the subscription price less than
a dollar and we are not going to charge
one man dollar and let another have
it for seventy-five cents. But we can
afford to make an inducement to any
one to get out and hustle for US. And
we want it understood that this club
offer is not a reduction of the SUBJ
scription price but simply an allowance
for work done for US. We will not ac-
cept less than a dollar for years sub
scription this year or next, but we will
accept $500 for five subscriptions or
$3.50 for ten this year and we will do
the same next year. This club offer.

any misunderstanding we will say that
cash must accompany the order and
that no other paper is included in this

The Cost of Living.

. A great deal has been said about
the present high cost of living
One of the ablest discussions we
have noticed is in the April Define

increased productioEAof gold, the
trusts, the labor unions. the exhor-

that If the cause which hesassigns

ThesSseding of Oats.

Experiments which the Agricultural
Experiment Station has been conduct
ing throughout the state have shown
that for at least the south half of Mis-
souri, the Texas Red Rust Proof
oat is the surest yielder that can be
used. In the north half of Missouri
the Texas Red Rust Proof is well
adapted, but in this section and even
in many cases in South Missouri an
early variety of oats brought directly
from the north will yield better.
These oats should be grown at
least as far north as northern Iowa, and
new seed should be secured at least
every other year to insure a good
yield of heavy oats. Another variety
which has been shown to be quite well
adapted to Missouri conditions, es2e-
cially the prairie, is the Kerson oat.
This is very early variety with a
medium to small growth of straw and
has its value mainly on the account
of its early maturity which lessons the
amount of rust.
Experiments have also shown that
for most conditions it is better TO drill
in oats rather than to broadcast them.
This gives more even growth and
the increased yield will almost invar-
iably pay for the cost OF drilling.
There is, also, considerable saving
of seed in drilling as compared with
Oats should be treated for smut to
insure satisfactory yield. The Ex-
pertinent Station will gladly send COM
plete directions for giving this treat
ment on application. The expense is
very slight and if one is not sure that
seed oats is free of smut, this treat
ment should be given.

Emerson Daniels Drops Dead
Suddenly.

u Emerson DanfeiS DroPS Lead
Suddenly.
Emerson Daniels, a boy about
years of age, dropped dead, supposed
of heart disease. shortly after / o'cloc
last Saturday. He was working fe
Henry Smith, who lives in the Middle
ton district, in whose employ he ha
been for about a week. They wer
hauling hay and Smith left Daniel
watching the team while he went to tn,
house to remove hayseed which haG
lodged in his eye. When he returned
after being gone about ten minute:
he found Daniels lying dead. The de.
ceased was young man of good habits
and well liked by his acquaintances.
He had been a member of the Chris
tian church for about a year. His
mother is dead, and his father, DAN
iels, lives near Hilda. He has two
brothers, Sanford and Herbert, and three
sisters who are married. The body
was inferred at the Lone Pilgrim grave
yard Sunday.
After the boy had been found dead,
Mr.. Smith called up Coroner G. B.
Mitchell and informed him of the facts.
DR.. Mitchell got into communication
with the father of the boy and other
parties III the neighborhood and asked
if everyone was satisfied that the death
was natural one or if they desired an
inquest. Everyone, including the
father, said they were satisfied and did
not desire an inquest, and none was
held. They said when the boy fell he
cut a small cash in the head, but none
believed it to have been the cause of
death. But as soon as the body was
in the ground certain parties began to
let their long tongues work at both
ends. One man told that he had ex-
amined the body and that there was
= bullet hole in the back of the head
into which he ran his finger nearly an
inch. Others told that the back of the
head was battered into a pulp.
These rumors reached a circulation
so great that Tuesday morning the
father demanded Coroner's inquest.
Accordingly DR.. Mitchell went to
Lone Pilgrim and had the body exhum-
ed and summoned jury. An exam
nation showed that there was a slight !
wound in the scalp but that the skull |
was::not damaged. The jury, which was
of C.. E. Clemens, foreman,
?. M. league, ]. L. Ray, R. Bloefeld,

brought in the following verdict:

zines and statesmen are taking
up the question and wanting
to know why In discussing i,
they fail to take into considerat on
the fact that there has been for
J ears high cost of living qnes-
lion ameng the farmers of the
country. They do not take this in
TO consideraticn because no news
papers, magazines or statesmen
took up the cry on behalf of the
farmer and pnblic attention was
not called to it
We say high cost of living to
the farmer, perhaps lack of living
would better express our idea.
For years the farmer has lived in
a small house with little furniture,
scant education, poorsclothes, and
a general lack of amusements.
But he hasn't complained. The
farmer and the farmers boy and
the farmers girl have looked to
the city They have seen the city
people living.jn fine houses with
fine furniture, well educated, &fne
clothes, and all kinds of amusee
inents. The city was much more
attractive than the farms. SO the
farmers have sold out and moved
to town
This has. continued until there
are not enough farmers on the
farms to furnish food for the peo
pie in the cities The demand has
equaled or exceeded the supply.
The remedy? Prices of food
stuff will continue to rise until
the farms become more attractive
than the city and the tide sets IN
the opposite direction and enough |
people get back to the farms to
produce enough for the people of |
The cities. Probably that stagel
has not been reached, but if not it |
