The more than three thousand boys
and girls of Missouri who attend the
state university at Columbia constitute
big factor in the right working out of
the problems OF both country and city
life in the state. Especially does the
agricultural college train future citi-
zens whose Influences upon the produc-
ing areas of Missouri is far reaching
for good.
Not alone through it's student at
tendants does the university perform
practical service to the state. Its bull

sources of the state, its cooperation

the counties, towns and cities; its sup
ply of lecturers and practical advisers
to the localities which desire them
all these activities and uses of the
university affirm it's really inestimable
value to all the people of Missouri.
Now. this fine and prideful institI-
ton must go forward or go backward.
1t will go backward if it's financial sup
port does not at least keep pace with
its increase of attendance and it's eX-
tension of needed services. But it will
go forward to yet greater values to
the state, if the people sufficiently sup
port it.
This next election will decide much
for the welfare or the Encouragement
of the university. The people are to
vote on the constitutional amendment
providing a permanent endowment
fund by a threetentn of mill tax.
The tax is so small that it will be not
felt by those who pay it. The money
the tax provides will take the place
Of the sums ordinarily appropriated
for the university out of the states
general revenues. The tax will be an
ton for the public benefit which could
be made with anything like the same
amount OF money.-Kansas City Star
The Missouri college Of agriculture
has demonstrated by actual experience
in Southwest Missouri that the yield
of corn in that section may be in
creased by proper methods of farming
% bushels per acre. The magnitude
of this discovery if applied to all Mis-
souri, corn land, can be understood
by considering the fact that 100000
acres of Missouri soil are in corn. II,
by improved methods of farming, the
annual production can be increased
all over Missouri one bushel per acre,
which is but one twenty-fifth part as
much as it has been increased in
Southwest Missouri sections, Missouri
would produce each year 100000
bushels more of corn than she now
does, which, at 80 cents per bushel,
means an increased annual income
|of $4,000000. If the annual Yell
can be increased five bushels to the
acre, the farmers of Missouri will an
nually receive $20,OO0,O0O in excess
of their present income.
The college of agriculture is only
one department of the state Univer-
|sity. The state University is today
asking the voters of Missouri to adopt
Amendment No. II, which, by a sep
arate fund derived from levy of 3
cents per $500 assessed valuation, will
guarantee an annual income of $780,
600 to the entire University. With
one department of the University
pointing the way to an increased an
nual production, in one staple COM
modify alone, of from $4,000,000 to
$'O,O00,OOO annually it is sound bus
mess judgment to guarantee to the
University the stable and permanent
means of support which will be pro-
vided by Amendment No. 11.-Drovers'
Telegram.
University Missourian. [volume] (Columbia, Mo.) 1908-1916, 1910-10-18

Constitutional amendment No. IL
provides a separate source OF income
for the University of Missouri, includ-
ing the Agricultural College and the
School of Mines. The tax proposed is
three-tenth of a mill per dollar of as
sessed valuation.
Such fixed tax, it is believed, will
relieve the curators of the university
OF the difficulties that are caused by a
| fiuctuating and uncertain income. it
will permit enlargement and extension
of the educational work. 1t will re-
move from the curriculum How to
Make Both Ends Meet" as the subject
of Target study. 1t will impose a tax
of only 80 cents on each $1,000 of prop
erty in theory and about one-third that
Missouri lags in the educational race.
The taxes imposed by other states
to maintain universities, as compared
to the 3 cents proposed for Missouri
are, Colorado, cents; Michigan, Az
cents; Minnesota 8 $40 cents; Ne
braska, 10 cents; Wisconsin, 3 cents,
North Dakota, 5 $40 cents, and Wyo-
ming, 81 cents. In many of these
states the fixed income is increased
by appropriations by the Legislature
The per capita cost of state universe
ties is % cents in Ohio, 81 cents in
Indiana, 80 cents in Illinois, 81 cents
in Iowa, Sc cents in Wisconsin, 81 cents
in Kansas, 60 cents in Nebraska, n
cents in Minnesota, and "A cents in
Michigan. In Missouri it is 20 cents.
With half Missouri's population and
81, 500, 100000 less taxable wealth Kan
sas gives its university one-third more
income than Missouri. 8
If Missouri's leading educational in
stitution is to win and, hold a high
place among state universities it must
have a certain, fixed income such rs
the proposed tax will provide. If it IS
to keep the teachers it secures and
develops it must be relieved of entire
dependence on shifting and whimsical

SAID Concerning
The Uniuerslty

The Republican party OF Missouri,
always a friend of education, at the
platform convention recently held,
approved the proposition to provide Il
separate and permanent fund for the
support of the state university. Con-
stitutional amendment No. II, to be
voted on at the November election,
provides for tax of three cents per
800 on the assessed valuation of prop
erty in the state for that purpose.
The university, under the present
law, depends entirely upon biennial
appropriations of the legislature, and
is compelled every other year to be-
come supplicant before the House
and Senate for aid. The legislature
has been literally inclined, but, owing
to the fact that many other institu-
tons must be provided for from the
! general revenue fund, which is not
| sufficient to meet the requirements
OF all, it has been necessary to scale
down university appropriations to the
lowest possible point. University ap.
preparations have been paid principal,
| ly out of the inheritance tax, the re-
ceipts from which fluctuate so vic.
lently and unexpectedly that they can
never be estimated even for three
months ahead. AS a result, the uni
versity has been compelled to lose a
number of it's most valuable instrue.

CUTS THIRD SET OF teeth
New Jersey Man, Fifty Years Old, 10
Having Remarkable Experience,
Also Painful. ~

Beverly, N. J.-Albert Patterson,
who is SO years old, is cutting his
third complete set Of teeth. The ex-
p~erience is a more painful one for
him than was the cutting of the first
set and he is now under treatment in
a local hospital.
Patterson lost his second set of
teeth, which were perfectly sound and
~serviceable, when he underwent an
operation a year ago for abscess Of
the upper jaw. He was considering
the suggestion Of his dentist to buy a
set of store teeth when he observed a
swelling along the gums, accompanied
by irritation and soreness and fire.
quent nausea. The symptoms looked
to him like a return of his old ailment
In an aggravated form and for a time
he was upheld in that view by his
physician. A few days ago, however,
a tooth began to show itself, indica-
ting that a new growth had begun.
Since then it has been ascertained
an entire new set is coming.
In spite of the annoyance It gives
him Patterson is rejoicing to think
he is to be blessed with real teeth
again.

Defective sanitation, impure food,

death rate Of over 16 to the thousand.
and in certain industrial centers % to
the thousand, while in the Australian
states, where the heedlessness Of COM
mercialism is restrained and the pub
lie health preserved, the average
death rate is 10 to the thousand, and
in New Zealand nine and a fraction to
the thousand. If a department Of pub.
lie health could reduce our mortality
n to the thousand it would mean a
saving of about 10000 human beings
per annum, worth, approximately, four
hundred millions, If we shall value hui

Sharon Reporter:


Sharon Reporter:
Seth Curry was a Sharon visi-
tor the first part of the week.
Mr.. Curry, who buys wheat at
Chasly, N. D., is a brother of E.
S. Curry of this place.
The appearance of grasshop-
pers in large numbers in some
parts of the state, indicates that
there is trouble ahead for the
farmers, unless they profit by
former experiences. The great
est danger is not to the present
crop, but to that which is to fol-
low. A few years ago when
these pests did considerable
damage to the crops in parts of
the state, they we're most numer-
ons and destructive near fields
that had lain in in stubble during
the winter and late spring. These
fields appeared to be the hatch
ing place of the grasshoppers
and they cleaned up most of the
nearby field of grain before
taking their fight to green fields
and pastures new. Where land
is left unplowed in the fall care
should be taken to turn over the
soil before the Matching process
takes place. If all the farmers
will take the necessary precau-
tions along this and other lines
there is no need of having a
repetition Of the calamity which
threatened to destroy the crops
a few years ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Bently
and children came over last Sat
urday for a short visit with Ole
Bently and family. Gilbert is
one of the large farmers of Grand

that the wheat around Sharon
looked much better than he ex-
pected.

near Broadview, Mont. Mr..
Halgrims informs us that things
