700 MILES OF CORN.
Increase II Yield Were One Bushel
Per Acre More.

II the corn yield OF Missouri could
be increased one bushel per acre, the
additional number Of bushels pro-
duced, II placed in wagons containing
fifty bushels each, counting 26.4 feet
to the team and wagon, OF geo to the
mile, would make q procession Of
wagons 100 miles In length. It would
stretch from Kansas CITY 10 81. Louis
and back again, and would then leave
$50 miles Of wagons out Of the pro-
cession.
In certain quarters of southwest
Missouri the Agricultural College Of
the State University has demonstra-
ted that the yield of corn may be in
creased rs bushels per acre, and lead
ing farmers of the state are convinced
that by following the methods of the
Agricultural College the yield through
out Missouri can be largely aug.
mented.
On November 9Th, Constitutional
Amendment No. IL, which provides
definite support for the University
and Agricultural College will be voted
upon. A vote in its favor is a vote for
the Agricultural College.

MISSOURI RECORD BREAKER.
Josephine ie Most Remarkable MIX
Cow In World.

The most remarkable milk COW In
the world is owned by the Missouri
Agricultural College at Columbia. Her
name is Missouri Chief Josephine"
She holds the worlds record for milk
produced in a continuous period OF
six months. During the six months
ending June 18th, 1910, she produced
17,0SS.S pounds of milk, an average
of 93.4 pounds or 11.6 gallons per day
for 1872 days,
The worlds record three-year-old
Jersey COW "Pedro's Estella," was
bred by the Missouri College Of Agri.
culture. Her three-year-old record
is 712 pounds of butter in one year,
or an average Of nearly two pounds
per day.
Only 20 Jersey cows In the history
Of the world. from the time Of Adam
to the present, have authenticated rec
ords Of over 700 pounds Of butter an
nually. Five Of these were bred and
owned by the Missouri College Of Ag-
rciulture.
The second best milking Shorthorn
COW III the WOTlu Is NOW OWutu ny
the Missouri College Of Agriculture.
Her record is COS pounds of market
able butter in one year.
The Agricultural College teaches
farmers how such animals have been
produced, and enables them to better
the quality of their own herds. Lead
ing stock men readily agree that Inn
provement in quality and product can
both be brought about by following
the methods of the College. If the
average production of butter per COW
in Missouri can be increased one
pound per month, the annual Missouri
butter product will be increased l.
200, 900 pounds, which at 20 cents per
pound amounts to $4,000 per year.
A college which is doing the work
being carried on by this n ought
not to be permitted to stand still or
go backward. Larger support must,
however, be given the Missouri Col
lege, for 1t Is now sadly hampered
and cramped by lack of funds.
Amendment No. II, the last n on
the ballot, provides permanent, sep
arate support for the University, Of
which the Agricultural College is a
part. The friends of the Agricultural
College will rally to the support Of
the amendment.

erroB.
And IL was due to the intelligent
foresight Of Senator Gardner that
Governor Hadley, when Attorney Gen
eral of the State, obtained a good
clew to the real facts on which he
subsequently began custer proceed
ings against the Standard Oil monop-
oly-proceedings which not only
drove the powerful monopoly from
Missouri but brought on a general
prosecution which has curtailed its
power in several States and subjected
1t to Federal prosecution. But that's
another story.
AS tho campaign wages hotter dur
ing the next few days Senator Gard.
ner will be found in the thick Of the
battle, not pleading for a seat in the
Senate, but for the election Of Repub.

have found that he is too modest to

GARDNER FOUND A WAY
TWO NOTORIOUS CORPORATIONS
CAUGHT BY A COMMITTEE.

The story of the trap set to catch
the Standard Oil Company and the
Terminal Railroad and Bridge Monop-
oily at st. Louis has never been fully
told, and what was made public at
the time has been almost forgotten.
The entrance of Hon. A. e. L. Gard
ner into the race for United States
Senator has revived interest In the
story.
AS chairman Of a Joint Senate and
House committee authorized to in
quire into live stock rates from points
in Missouri to East st. Louis Senator
Gardner was instrumental IN develop
ing facts that were subsequently used
by Governor Hadley. then Attorney
General, in his successful prosecution
of the Standard Oil Company and
the Waters-Pierce OIL Company for
violation of the Missouri antitrust
laws. The committee found that these
companies were in collision; that
their oils escaped the high tariff
levied by the Terminal Association
at st. Louis for crossing the river,
a pipe line. laid under the river, carry
ing the oils from shore to shore by
a pumping process. A little further
probing made 1t clear that these com.
panies had divided the State into dis
tricts for the distribution Of OILS and
had been enabled, by escaping the
bridge tariff at st. Louis ana through
special transportation arrangements,
to drive eut competition and control
toe Missouri oil market. Attorney
General Hadley (now Governor) had
been invited to sit with the commit
tee, and obtained from witnesses he
was privileged to examine the clews
he followed in the nov celebrated
Standard Oil case. Although the
committee had originally been re-
stricted to an investigation of live
stock rates, Senator Gardner sue
ceeded in having a resolution adopted
by the Legislature under which the
scope of the investigation was broad
ened, and thus a thorough inquiry
into the methods and rates of the
monopoly controlling river crossing
uuu tSl luludl ldClllllSS Was mdu6 pOo-
sible.
Believing that the committee could
bring to light much that vas secret
in the methods followed by these big
corporations, Senator Gardner invited
Attorney General Hadley and former
Attorney General Crow to sit with the
committee and cross.examine wit
nesses. The result was astonishing
to everybody except Senator Gardner,
whose private investigation had con
vinced him that much more was to
be accomplished for shippers and the
public generally by unearthing the Sc
cret operations of the Bridge and Ter.
minal Company and the oil companies
than by a mere INJURY into stock.
shipping rates. His methods and pur.
poses were so carefully concealed
from the attorneys and agents and
witnesses Of these big corporations
that they were all caught in his trap
before they were aware that anything
unusual was going on.

SHALL IT CONTINUE TO BEG?
State Pride HumbIed by Necessity Of
6Iennlally Asking Aid.

The State University Is the cap
sheaf of Missouri's public school sys-
TEN. The graded and high schools
are guaranteed permanent support by
the Constitution; the University has
no such guaranty, and is forced to be
a biennial beggar for aid from the
general assembly.
Constitutional Amendment No. II,
to be voted On in November, places
the University on a basis similar to
that Of the graded and high schools.
except that 1t does not give the Uni.
versity any local taxes. such as the
other schools receive. There 10 no
sound objection which can be urged
against the amendment, and its
friends are predicting its adoption by
a large majority on November 9Th.

A GOOD RECORD
FOR GOOD LAWS.

In the State Senate Hon. A.
e. l.. Gardner made a record
concerning good roads. labor,
child labor and education that
deserves reward. He has al
ways stood for the welfare of
the young; for wise laws in
tended to give them protection
from the wickedness or cruelty
or neglect of parents; for laws
regulating and safeguarding
their employment; and for the
best possible system of public
education. He voted for the
law prohibiting the sale of CT
garettes to minors, and for
the child labor law. And he
introduced In the Senate and
pressed to enactment the law
providing for instruction In ele-
mentary agriculture In the pub
lie schools Of the State. He
believes that the tendency to
abandon the farm for precart-
Gus living In the cities should
be arrested. The instruction
provided for by this Law will
tend to strengthen the present
back u the fsrmy movement.

property than that of Missouri, yet
the University of Nebraska receives
thousands of dollars more money an

with the educational procession, ade.
quate support must be furnished the
University. Constitutional Amend

couragement of the Teachers AS

Resolved, that we extend vote
of thanks to the County Court tos
the use Of the court house.
Resolved, that we commend
those teachers that have attend.
ed the Association faithfully, anu
regret the lack of interest man.
Tested by other teachers.
Resolved, that we, as teachers
of Montgomery county, approve
OF the plan recommended by u
county superintendent in regard
to the county and the state spell
ing contest, and recommend that
the teachers defray the expenses
of the county representative to
the state contest and that coun-
ty superintendent defray the
| expenses of state representative
to the national contest.
Since close attention to three or
four strong lectures, and partici-
patton in discussions, cause the
teachers to grow weary, there
fore we recommend that the SEES
| sions be less strenuous, and that
the social feature be given mora
prominence. !.
Resolved, that a a body OF
teachers, we favor a full and free
| discussion of each and every pa
per and topic on the program.
Believing as we do that all pro-
gress, whether religious, political
or educational, has been cross
fertilized by the doctrine OF evo-
luton, we therefore ask the nexs
| legislature to abstain from all
school legislation affecting the
teachers or the question of super
vision until the teachers have had
time to solve the problems which
now confront them.
We believe that too much legia-
lation, too many radical changes,
too hastily made, are detrimental
to the best interests OF the pub
lie schools.
Believing that the county SUI
perintendent understands the To-
cal conditions better than a cen
trail board can, we favor the grad
ing of teachers papers by tho
county superintendent rather than
by a central board.
Knowing that teachers asso-
Citations are agents for probes
sional advancement, we recon :
mend that all teachers OF Mont
gomery county, as far as possible,
attend the state teachers associa-
ton.
Resolved, that we extend our
sympathy to Mr.. J. r. Knight,
who was unable, because OF an un
fortunate accident, to be with Vi
at our association.
Resolved, that we, the Mont
gomery County Teachers Associ-
alton, do endorse and recommend
the support OF University Amend
ment No. IL.
Resolved, that we express our
vote of thanks to Supt. ELISE anti
the teachers of Wellsville for their
Invitation to the Association to
meet with them next year.
Resolved, that we, as teachers OF

Why has this waterway with every
