ATTENTION, DE N0CR4TS!

To THE DENoCRAcY OF Missouri AT
the meeting OF the Democratic State
committee. held at jefferson City
June 70, a resolution was adopted
naming B, H. Rucker, chairman of
the Executive committee, A. |.
Harty secretary of the State com
mittee, and J. 3. Shannon. State
chairman, as a committee on organ
ization for the national and state
campaign Of 1912. In compliance
with this resolution the undersigned
met at state headquarters Midland
building Kansas City, July II and
concluded that the first step in or
sanizing was to issue this appeal
IL the individual democrats OF the
state
under the law the new S,l,C COM
mittee. elected at the primaries next
year, cannot complete its organiza-
ton for the guhernatorial and the
presidential election of 1912, until
about the first of October, 1912,
almost the eve of the election This
is a serious defect in the law and
makes it almost impossible for the
new committee to do effective work

Letter from 4HeR Cook

kENNErr Mo, July 27 19ll-M,
old friends in Bollinter county hay,
asked to hear from me and learn how
like my new home
While miss my old neighbors
this is a much better farming coun-
try than the hills, and there are some
gooi neiGhbors here too.
My farm is located about three
miles south of Kennett and, like all
Dunkln county soil, is sandy. fertile
and easy to cultivate
Land ranges in value from SIS to
Sl.75 per acre. ! have been offered
$3.50 more per acre than my land
cost me But am a believer in
the rule, When you get good thing
stay with it.
We are at work now putting up
modern buildings and will move in
next week.
Crops are very good this year A
seven weeks drouth left us no pota-
toes and cut the oats crop short, but
corn, cotton and peas did not feel
the effects Of it in the least. Corn
looks as we'll as you ever saw it in
Whitewater or Crooked creek bot
toms.
We have SiXty-hve acres in cotton
and 1t is now shocIder high and
blooming nicely Prospects are fine
for a splendid crop, and if any of
my old friends are thinking of com
ing down this fall to pick cotton |
would be glad to have them give us
a call
We have lots of all kinds of mel
onS just now beginning to ripen.
Fruits of all kinds grow well here
and peaches are exceptionally fine
this year.
Old residents here say crops are
three weeks earlier than they were
last year Everybody is through
work until cotton-pickine time and
fish fries, with plenty of all kinds of
fish and lots of Sociability, help to
kill time,
This will give you an idea of how
We live, and if YOU like fish just
come down now, and if you would
rather pick cotton come down about
the middle Of September.
