Then it was Plank Roads

The Fulton Daily Sun the other
day printed an article found In q
copy OF the old Telegraph OF that
city dated May Q, 1851. The arti-
Gle shows that good-roads talk Is
not a new thing in this part OF the
state. Sixty years ago, however,
II was plank roads, instead OF rock
roads. Boone county. had one OF
these plank roads, reaching from
Columbia to Providence on the
Missouri. II was built at great
cost and in a few years II was
In a dilapidated condition, and
finally disappeared.
Following Is the article taken
from the Telegraph, OF date May
Q, 1851, setting forth some argu-
ments that r just as true and Just
as forceful now, in view OF the
present agitation, as they We're at
that time:

The Worlds Granary

Toledo, o., Sept. Ii-Last year
the United States produced IS per
cert OF the corn OF the world, 81
per cent OF the oats and 20 per
cent OF the wheat, and II was done
upon 9 per cent OF the land.
The average annual production
OF cereals In this country Is about
five thousand million bushels
These figures are so stupendous
that the average mink cannot com
prehcnd them.
And yet OF all the corn grown
in this country, and there were
3,i26, 900, 900 bushels OF Il only about
2 per cent was exported.
This shows the wonderful con-
sumptive power OF the people OF
the United States. No nation In
the history OF the world has had
such a record.
The prosperity OF a country and
its standard OF civilization are de-
termined by its ability TO consume
the products OF It's soil. This Is
shown by a comparison between
the people OF India and the Uni
ted States, as the former with its
nearly 800, 100000 peop,e exports III
per cent OF its 500, 0Oo, 900 bushels OF
wheat which Is only about half of
the production In this country.
The other wheat growing sec
tions OF the world which are back
ward in the scale OF material pro-
gress show about the same record
as India.
The men who handle these i'm
mense cereal cops OF the United
States are to meet in Omaha, Oct.
9, 10 and II next, when the annual
convention of the Grain Dealer
National Association Is to be held.
At this convention every phase
of the cereal business will be dis
cussed. How TO increase the yield
of the American farms by the scien
tific breeding of grain; how to
add 10 the supply of the country
by irrigation, dry farming and
deep ploughing-all these methods
will be considered.
Our population is rapidly over
taking our production, and 1t was
this fact that recently induced the
Washington government to nego-
tate a commercial treaty with
Canada.
The Grain Dealers National As
ISOLATION is composed OF practical
ly all the prominent elevator own
ers, brokers and commission men
in the country. They are interest
ed in the farmers because without
the growers of the grain there
would be no grain to handle.-Con-
tributed.

Missouri State Militia

The Ninth Missouri Cavalry held
It's 18th annual reunion at Moberly
recently and had a good meeting.
The meeting next year will be held
at Boonville the first Thursday and
Friday in September. DIR. T. b.
Ross, OF Slater, is one OF the active
members OF this company and
made a good talk. He is 70 years
old but Is still zone OF the boys"
and n fine one at that. His adj
dress follows:
"Mr. President, Comrades and
Gentlemen lit affords me very
much pleasure, more than I have
words to express to again meet
With you In reunion. There Is
always <omething very signifi-
can't and inspiring about our
meetings. They fill our hearts
with enthusiasm and call us back
in memory TO bygone days when
We we're young. active and vigor-
Gus In life, prompted by a pa
triotic Impulse and an earnest de-
sire TO suppress the rebellion and
restore peace and harmony to an
excited nation. Fellow comrades
We have the satisfaction of be-
lief that We have lived for u
grand and noble purpose. When
our country was In imminent dan
ger OF dissolution. raeked and
scattered from center to circum-
ference, We took up arms In her
defense, babe adieu TO loved ones
az home and marched to the beat
OF the war drum To the field OF
conflict To battle for the preser-
walton OF the Union and the main
tenance OF the American flag. II
there ever was n class OF men that
deserve praise above all Others IL
Is those who gave the best years
OF their young manhood TO the
service OF their country. Many
years have come and gone since
we laid down the impliments OF
war and returned 20 the peaceful
pursuits OF civil life since which
time We have grown old and care
worn and the rough side OF life Is
clearly manifested. Our heads are
silvered with the frosts OF many
winters and the end OF IA earth
ly existence Is steadily drawing
near and we will soon have To
shuttle off this mortal coil, but
thanks TO the good Lord our lives
are still spared and we remain 10y
al TO u country and sustain faith
full maintenance to the flag under
which We fought during the G
bellion.
May the c.ars and stripes float
TO every breeze as an everlasting
token that the nations heroes did
not die In vain and u glorious
country still exist as a free and
independent nation.
| will say in conclusion may the
few remaining years that we are
permitted to live on earth be spent
more faithfully in the service OF
the Lord than they have been in
the service of our country and at
last when we shall have done with
time and timely things and come
to bid adieu to all that is near
ard dear to us, may we gain a
successful entrance in that heaven
ly country and there join in the
greatest reunion OF all when there
will be no wars and bloodshed,
but peace, pleasure and happiness
throughout the c~eaceless ages of
eternity"
