February %, Emmett c. Higgins
and Otto Witt game Wardens, de-
stroyed with dynamite the noted
fish trap on the Charlton river near
Keytesville. 1t has been in use for
many years and was netting its
owners from $500 to $500 a
year. Ben Clark, the owner of the
place. protested that he had pur-
chased the trap along with the farm
and that the fishing rights had been
handed down for years to the own
erS of the farm. The trap was a
curious invention, consisting OF
heavy timbers placed midway ,oi
the stone dam. Fish coming down
stream would float into it. The
catch for "a day would frequently
FILL aR ordinary farm wagon. 1t is
said that the dam and trap were
originally hEilt by the Indians. X

Just Whistle.

Are you ever sort o lonesome
Out of sorts, triAe blue?
Well, so am most awfully,
And I'll tell you what | do
| whistle, just whistle.
At first, of course, it's tough on me
To get the pucker right,
For the discomfort will linger,
Kinda testin' out its might;
But | whistle, just whistle.
When the sun begins to siZZle,
And the crops is dryin' up,
And everything is eoin' wrong,
And misery fills my cup,
whistle, just whistle.
And when I've been a whistlin'
Five minutes, say. er ten;
beIin to see my worries
Amt half what they might o been
So l whistle, just whistle.
Now, when you get to frettin
Feeling tho this life amt much,
And the crouch that's in your system
Comes out at every touch
You whistle, just whistle.
You'll surprise yourself and others
With the difference that will make
And you'll laugh and be forgetting
Every little pain and ache.
Ifyou whistle. ne is, trife
Whistles sheerin' as can be,
And twill drive away our troubles
And leave our hearts care free;
If we whistle, just whistle.
We all have our worries,
And these we have to fight,
But if you and i do what | say,
Well both come out all right,
Let's whistle, just whistle.
R. M. Nicholson.

FREE SEED CORN FOR FARMERS.


Until further notice we will give
a quart of Pure Bred Seed Corn
with every new subscriber to the
Missouri Farmer and Breeder. A
quart of seed will plant a quarter
of an acre of grOund-thus furnish
ing you plenty of Pure Bred Seed
of your own for next year. The
kind of seed we furnish costs from
$3.50 to $500 per bushel and
will give a greatly increased yield
per acre. 1t doesn't pay to raise
scrub corn any more than it pays
to raise scrub live stock and our
chief object is to get farmers to
plant quarter of an acre in order
to test the experiment. The Mis-
souri, Farmer and Breeder is Mis-
sOuri'S greatest farm and stock pa
per and the subscription price is
SOC per year. 1t is published at
Columbia the home of Missouri's
greatest Agricultural College, the
Missouri Experiment Station, the
State Board of Agriculture, Veteri-
nary Department, Dairy Depart
ment, Horticultural Department
Poultry Department and State
Highway Department, and it brings
you into closer touch with what
these great institutions are doing
for better farming and better live
stock in Missouri, = 1t is edited by
Hon. Geo B. Ellis, for many Years
Secretary of the Missouri State
Board of Agriculture one of the
greatest practical Agricultural au,
thOri.eIes in the country and a man
VINO has done more in the intereS1
Iof Missouri farmers than any othe
man in the state. No thinking
farmer in Missouri can afford to b,
without it.
If you want to get in on our see,
5 corn offer, send or leave SOC at tn
5 office of the Democrat at once a
L our supply of seed will not las
e lone. A reasonable time befoI
i planting your seed will be sent t

Must Pay Full Value.

The Kansas City Court of Appeals
has just rendered a decision to the
effect that a shipper of live stock
can recover from railroad the full
value of an animal shipped, no
matter if the agent did insert in the
contract the value of the animal.
The case in which the decision was
rendered was where the agent val
rued a horse at 500, yet the owner
sued and recovered $500 damages
against the Burlington Railroad
;Csmpany.-Fulton Telegraph.

YoHF average American is @ born

thing the more he berstes, the big

all given to magnifying our private

Senate Passes School Bill,

Jefferson City, Mo-, Feb, %. The
Senate, with but one dissenting
vote, today took up and passed
Senator Kinney's measure provid-
ing for an amendment to the Con-
Stitution so changing the organic
laws as to permit children to enter
the kindergarten department of the
public schools at 5 years of age.
The limit now is 6 years.
Senator Booth of Dallas cast the
only vote against this measure. The
proposed amendment does not seek
to require children to enter the pub
lie schools at S years Of age, but
leaves the matter optional with
each locality. 1t is expected that
the cities would very largely avail
themselves of such an opportunity
which would mean an additional
~
10000 little tots in the St. Louis
public schools.
A great deal of interest, particu-
larly in St. Louis, has been taken in
this measure. Superintendent Ben
Blewett made a special appeal to
the Legislator" = e. IT,,
Al us behalf three
weeks ago. 1t is deemed quite Ger
tain by the friends OF the meSsas
that it will pass the House,
