MISSOURI STATE NEWS ;
The Cow and the Corn Crop.

Some day, not so very far in the
future, either, some Missouri Coburn
in telling less progressive states how
the Missouri farmer became interest
ed in scientific farming, will recall
the part one cow-one Holstein COW
took in adding SO many billions OF
kernels to the Missouri corn crop
that the very figures will give You a
headache. That COW is Chief jose
phine, the pride Of the Missouri Agri-
cultural college. No, there's nothing
remarkable about Chief Josephine
SO far as the inexperienced eye can
tell. But that very valuable COW has
a record of giving just five times as
much milk as the average farm COW.
And any COW that gives five times as
much milk as the average COW is
worth just five times as much to the
farmer and then some. That's why,
when the Educational Train of the
Agricultural college of the University
of Missouri passed through several
central Missouri counties carrying
the message Of scientific farming to
the farmers back door, it was met by
hundreds of farmers at every stop.
The farmers, many OF them at least,
drove ten and 10 miles over bad
roads to meet the train, to see Jose
phine. They stayed to hear of prop
err soil culture, crop rotation, corn
growing, the scientific care of or
chards. They drove back home with
new ideas about farming-ideas
which meant dollars and cents to
them. IF the farmer can't come to
the agricultural college, then carry
the teachings Of the college to the
farmer The schools of scientific
farming adopted that Mahomet and
che mountain policy toward the farm
ers Of the middle west several years
ago. 1t is becoming a more important
factor in the education of a state
every year because of the increasing
interest and attendance of the farm
ers. AS Prof. s. NJ. Jordan, the Mis-
souri, corn man." said: Missouri is
waking up to progressive methods in
farming as perhaps no other state has
done"
