Revelation pictures this river as

the same picture in mind; he tells of
the same trees, whose leaf shall not

which will bring forth good fruit every
month, because the water which re

told, "the leaves of the trees will be

A subscriber who writes that she
keeps sausage through the cold

holding a roll about two and one
half or three inches thick, which
she dips in melted lard and hangs
in a cold place, says:
TO keep rats away from any
thing that is hung up, procure the
bottoms of some old fruit cans by
melting the solder which holds them
This can be done by putting them
on a hot stove. Punch holes in the
center of these discs, and string
them upon the cord, wire or rope

pass upon the rope by climbing
over the discs, they turn and throw
it onto the floor. "-Wallaces Farm

Turned Birds LoosC

Will Arterburn, came up from
CarrOllton Friday afternoon, and
brought with him three pairs of
Hungarian Partridges which he took
out to the farm of Daniel Heiney,
and turned them loose in the Orch
ard. The birds are nearly twice as
large as our native quail and are
exceedingly strong and swift on
wing. They appeared in the coop
to be unusually wild but when lib
Grated they appeared to be quite
gentle. 1t is against the law to kill
these birds and if unmoIested for a
few years they will multiply rapidly
and provide sport for hunters.

Would it not be a good idea to
turn some of those birds loose in

and it is claimed that they are a
fine game bird.

after serving four years in the war
you are Democrat? Oh, said Doc.

Play

When you stop playing you stop
growing" declared Doctor Woods

Ohio teachers assembled in Cleve-
land last week To continue 10 grow
continue to play; to keep young,
continue to play; to conserve your
usefulness, continue to play In
short, continue to play.
Remember how old a man used
to be at 50? He did not play. Re-
member the old type of grandmother
who was old at 40 and who was en-
titled to be ranked among the old
est inhabitants at 60? She was a
dear creature, without whose gen.

be much nearer worthless than we
are. But she was ola to young; she
had forgotten how to play.
That is one vi the reasons why a

The State Capitol.


building at Jefferson City has pre-
cipitated upon the state an unfor-
tunated as well as a serious .propO-
sitiOn. Its tendency is to throw the
state into a state turmoil and inter-
iur disSensions. Now is the time,
as we see it. for all men who are
real Missourians and who put the
welfare of their state above the
mere chance of personal or local
gain. to come to the front and de.
mand in no uncertain language that
there be no capitol removal agita-
ton. Q.
The question of location was
fought out between two cities a few
years ago and Jefferson City won.
The fight cost the city of Sedalia
20 years growth. We we're for Sc
dalia then, but are now opposed to
even the consideration of removal,
however, promising in a monetary
way. Eliminating our own chances
and the same with other cities that
might apply, all must concede that
Jefferson City would be as satisfac-
tory to us as we'll as other appli-
Cants as any point in Missouri. In
other words, we believe that every
city that might want it, would pre-
fer Jefferson City if they could not
secure it for themselves.
There is a spirit OF justice and
right that must appeal to all fair
minded men in the consideration of
such propositions. Surprising Mo
berly has spent as much as Jetfer-
son City has for securing and keep
ing the capital would we think it
right to have it taken from US be-
cause one building happened to
burn? Moberly gave many dollars
for the location of the Wabash shops
and it made her a city. These
buildings might be laid low in a
night. Would we think it fair for
our misfortune to be taken advant-
age of and cause us to again prac-
tiCally purchase their location or
lose them? Is this the proper Mis-
souri, spirit? Can such methods
make Missouri a united, progressive
and harmonious state? Right, JUS
tice and Missouri generosity all say
let the capital remain at Jefferson
City, where it has been located for
many years by legislative enact
ment and lastly by a vote of the
people.
InaccessibiIity is the principal
complaint urged against Jefferson
City. 1t will not De ten years before
trolley lines will SO connect the
steam lines that there will not be a
place in Missouri from which one
cannot go to Jefferson City and re-
turn in twenty-four hours. Under
the present day Improvements this
question amount to nothing.
Let every ambitious city forego
their plans to Jefferson City, or
climb to greatness by the ruin of
another. Let them put their Shout
derS to the wheel for a united, gen
erous and liberal Missouri by build
ing at Jefferson City a capitol build
ing that will be modern, Commodi-
Gus and creditable to this state of
splendid people who live and thrive
by doing as they would be done by
under similar cirCumStanCes.-Mob-

1t Will Bear Repeating.

The statement has previously
been made time or two in these
columns, to the effect that the rap
idly decreasing supply of timber
suitable for making fence posts and
other lumber of use on the farm
could be greatly alleviated by the
planting of a small wood lot on
some of the Waste corners of the
farm.
United States ForeSters all unite
in agreeing that for purpose at
fence posts there is nothing which
is superior to the rapidly growing
long-laSting catalpa tree. AS point
ed out elsewhere in these columns
by man who has made a special
ly Of the subject it is extremely i'm
portant that the thoroughbred and
not the scrub variety of this family
be secured. This aristocratic varie-
ty is called the Catalpa SpecioSa.
Now, it is not necessary to go to
the extreme in this matter. A per-
son does not need to become a
crank on the subject, and turn his
entire farm into a forest. In fact,
were we all to do this the country
would soon Starve to death.
But there is no good reason why
the waste spots which are to be
found on even the best of farms
should not be growing fence posts.
