however by those who are intimate

Friends of Governor Glasscock who

The Governor was not present, and
took no part in the proceedings. 1t

Food Highest in History.

New York, June 3. : 1t costs8more
to live in this month; the month OF
June, 1912, than ever before in the
history of the United States, ex-
cept, perhaps, during Civil War
times. Prices today are on the av-
erage nearly 10 per cent higher
than one year ago, according to
trade authorities.
Food products are the highest on
record. Meat, eggs, butter, fish,
potatoes, coffee, tea, sugar, salt, mo-
lasses. rice, beans and peas average
% per cent higher; wheat, corn,
oats, barley, flour, etc, 33 per cent
higher.
Fruits are the only things good
to eat that have grown cheaper dur
ing the last twelve months, but they
are still higher than in 1910. Leath-
er products cost IL per cent and
chemicals and drugs 13 per cent
more than a yesr ago. Textile
goods, however, are a trifie cheaper.
The average increase in food
products is nearly 20 per cent,
which means that the housewife
must pay Sc to fill market basket
that only cost her SIS to fill in June
1911.

Does Things.

Clay Underhill is man who
does what he undertakes and he
does it thoroughly. AS an example
of his way of doing things we refer
to the great improvement that has
been made in the road which runs
by his farm near Huntington. All
who 90 over that road speak of the
reat improvement and it is we'll
that Clay does not hear all the
words of praise, but then Clay says
that W. F. Lehenbauer, the road
overseer of the district and others
in the neighborhood are entitled to
a big part of the credit for the ex-
cellent condition of the road.
Clay is not a bit selfish and wants
everybody to get all the credit due
them. He is one of Rails County's
best and most progressive farmers
and is always looking for some way
to help his neighborhood. If the
state was filled with just such citi-
zens as Clay Underhill there would
not be foot of bad road in the
: 100000 miles of road in Missouri.
Then as a farmer Clay is just as
progressive as he is in the road
building business, and he makes
farming pleasant and profitable.
