veto Of half the appropriation for

cised the Governor for this; at
least no farmer has. We have
no criticism for Hutchison or his
work, because personally we like
him, and his work we have not
studied. But he has gone sadly
wrong on the Governors race.

A QUESTION TO
FATHER AND MOTHER

What is Your Son or Daughter,
Who is Almost Grown, Going to do
When School Closes?
You will admit they have no time
to lose, no time to spend in idle+
ness. Had you thought OF what a
great advantage it would be to
them to place them in a school
where they could receive a practi-
cal training to fbe used in every
day life, and where they could be
surrounded by bright, energetic
grown young men ana women,
young men and women who r
working earnestly and faithfully,
in order that they may qualify
themselves in the shortest possible
time to go out and succeed in the
business world?
New students are enrolling al
most daily; others are graduating
daily and being placed in good
positions thru our Employment De
partment. A thorough course of
Bookkeeping Business Training
Shorthand, and Typewriting, in
our institution is one of the best
estates you can give your child /;
it is a practical knowledge for
which the business world pays
cash.
If you haven't cash to pay for
course in full, write for u credit
plan, which enables you to pay out
of salary earned after course is
completed. Write for u large
illustrated catalog, containing in
dorsements from hundreds of form
er students and their employers.

quest. "Children 1 can never get

persuade your father 20 what he
doesn't think is best. Do not do
any thing that is wrong. Arthur,

each other and remember to be
kind to your father, for it will not

Will not some other expert corn
growers of the County bring in a
bushel or two of either white or
yellow corn in order that there may
be plenty OF seed to supply the de
mand of all the boys and young
men who want to en&er the con-
test? Bring the same to J.. l..
Lynch at his office in the County
Court House and he will take pleas
ure in distributing it as directed by
the Saline County Corn Growers
Association.
Arrangements are now being
made for a County Corn Show to
be held at the Saline County Fair
Ground some time this fall.
Corn will be distributed as fol-
lows TO each young man from
16 to 20 years of age, four quarts
or enough to plant one acre To
each boy from ten to sixteen years
old, two quarts, Dr. enough to plant
a half acre.
Thus it will be seen that the two
bushels of seed now on hand will
not go very far towards supplying
the demand that will likely be
made for seed.
II seed cannot be supplied from
this office, il would be well for
others who wish to enter the con-
test to write to Mr.. George B. Ellis,
Columbia, Mo-, who will attend to
your requests.
There will be at least four chan
ces to win a prize a! the Saline
County Corn Show az the Tri-
County Corn Show a. the Sedalia
Fair at the State Corn Show in
Columbia.
Hoping thai several of Saline
County's best corn-growers will
send in a bushel or two of heir
choicest seed cora in order 20 help
along this ccmmendable undertake
ing, we are, Yours very truly
