How to Save the Corn Crop

Sam Jordan, corn expert in the
employ of the Missouri State Board
of Agriculture, known in every Mis-
souri, corn county as a farmers in
stitute lecturer, has issued this
statement to corn growers:
Boys, don't give up tine ship. A
serious drouth threatens us. All
that can be done is frequent, per-
sistent, shallow level cultivation.
Once a week if possible make adjust
mulch. These things done may
mean a crop with very little rain.
Neglect it and with little rain it
means sure failure. Missouri corn
growers can put across crop by
borrowing dry farming methods.
You must act; keep the cultivators
going in the dust. After a shower
"a crust forms on the ground. In
this crust are thousands of little
cracks that are like chimneys to
let the water out of the soil into
the air. From soil with reason
able moisture about 1875 tons of
wafer per acre eVaporates in one
week of dry, hot. windy weather.
Shallow, frequent cultivation stops
this.
Get Busy, Keep Busy Save The
Corn, Sit and Wait For Rain and
You Lose"
Here is what President Worst of
L. North Dakota Agricultural Col
le,o says
Ii | were to come on to your farm
and set $50 teams to work for a
week hauling water onto quarter
section at the rate of four tons a
day l would then only put on as
much water as evaporates in a week
when there is good moisture con-
tent in the soil. A thorough har-
rowing will stop this evaporation
and save that amount of water.

About Advertising.

The purpose of store advertising
is not merely to sell goods but to
sell more gOOdS-to make friends
and build up a patronage that will
not only stick, but grow, Newspa-
pers reach the greatest number of
people in the natural way at the
least expense and they are there
fore the best of all mediums for the
stores. In newspaper you follow
the line of least reSistance-you
follow with the stream-you talk to
an audience already assembled, to
the people who want to read-their
mental cosmos is right-they are
on your wire and won't ring off if
you held their interest. Attraction
is the basis of all interesting the
store is the sun, the customers the
planets that revolve around it,

The Trust Program.

This is the trust program; center
everything at Washington. Take
the control of corporations out of
the hands of the states and then
wait for congress to act. If the
trusts can control the president, the
senate or the house-any one of the
three they can prevent regulation.
They have for more than fifteen
years prevented the reformation of
the senate because they can control
the senate more easily than they
could if senators were elected by
popular vote. 1t is difficult enough
to regulate great corporations
when both the state and the federal
governments have a right to regu-
late-it will be still harder if the
federal government is given exclu-
siVe control, Every democrat will
oppose this scheme - the fact that
it is advanced by trust magnates is
conclusive proof that it is antago-
nistic to the interests of the public
The democratic position is that fed
eral remedies should be added to,
not substituted for, state remedies

A Jamesport Opinion.

What the farmers need is not a
tariff wall to keep out foreign grain
and other farm products, because
none is imported as we produce
more than we can consume; but an
enlargement of the markets abroad
for their products. This the Cana
dian reciprocity and the farmers
free list will do.-Jamesport Gazette

Anybody Can Do 1t"

The making of a country news
paper is the easiest proposition in
the world. All that is necessary is
to get every item of news that hap
pens; keep the good will of all who
buy, beg, borrow or steal your paper.
publish nothing that anybody is
opposed to seeing in print; leave out
nothing that anybody would like to
see in print; serve as a grindstone
for any who may have an ak to

enterprise; serve as a mouthpiece
for all the political, religious and
commercial organizations; laugh

"A discussion in the grand jury
room one day last week while the
jury was resting resulted in an in
quiry being made as to the proper
ton of the money collected for road
taxes in Galloway county which is
spent in paying Overseers for their
work and it was found that nearly
AZ per cent of the actual money
paid for road taxes last year went
to the Overseers," says the Fulton
Gazette. AT the request of R. L
Smith, one of the jury, Deputy
County Clerk T. N. Baker figured
the matter up and found that of the
$12,029.15 collected $5,247 was paid
to the overseers. The figures as

is inclined to blame the Overseers

1t TickleS the Trusts.

AS was feared, the supreme court
decision in the Standard Oil case
amounts to very little harm to the
big trust. Justice Harlan delivered
one Of the strongest dissenting
opinions that has ever come from
that bench, upholding the cause of
the people. The other trusts have
since been chuckling in glee, for
they figure the decision grants them
greater privileges than they previ-
ouSly enjoyed. - Albany Ledger.

And Morton Was Guilty

Governor Wilson and Governor
Harmon agree that guilt is person.
al" 1t is not a corporation that is
guilty of violating law, but the
officials who direct corporate action.
Harmon took that position when he
investigated the Santa Fe rebate
charge as counsel for the admins
tration. 1t involved Paul Morton,
then secretary of war, and Roose-
welt rejected HarmOn's conclusion
to shield Morton. Morton had ad-
mitted years before that he gave re-
bates and had to or bankrupt his

would do it and take traffic from
his line. MOrtOn'S candOr won

Whose Laws Are We Living Under2
Ask the Republican farmer who
tells you that the Democratic party
is responsible for the slump in the
price of live stock to put his finger
upon a Democratic law or policy in
force in this country. The Payne
Aldrich tariff law is still in force;
the Republican president is still en-
forcing Republican laws and meas
ures; there has been no change of
administration or policies. The
slump, like the panic, is a child of
the Republican party. That's the

the farmers, and most everybody
else, know protection" is a myth,
as applied by Republicans, to any

Democrats Will Reduce the Tari

Democrats Will Reduce the Tariff.
The Democratic party is pledged
to the policy of reducing the tariff,
if possible to a revenue basis, and
is opposed to the policy of protect
ing special interest, The line of de-
markation between the two parties
is clear. No man can be true to
Democratic principles and advocate
protection for any special home in
terest. For instance a Texas sena-
tor who advocates protection for
some Texas product is placed upon
the same footing with a Rhode Is
land senator who advocates protec-
ton for Rhode Island product. -
