forms Of kidney, bladder or urinary
disorders. These witnesses have
used Doan's Kidney Pills. All have
given their enthusiastic approval. It's
the same everywhere. 10000 Amer

recommending Doan's-always in the

are sufferer your verdict must be
"Try Doan's first.

Three New Books on Missouri.

As means of more thoroughly
and effectively advertising the Won
derful resources of Missouri to the
home builder and business man the
Missouri Pacific Iron Mountain has just
delivered from the press three new
and handsomely illustrated booklets
descriptive of as many sections of the
State, under the following titles:
Central Missouri. Southeastern Mis-
souri, and Western Missouri.
These booklets have been prepared
with great care and with desire to
faithfully portray the actual condi-
tons in the sections covered. The
text matter was written by practi-
cal agriculturalist and former edi-
tor of leading farm publication. 1t
is plain, practical and pointed por-
trayal of Missouri's great advantages
and her wonderful developed and UNI
developed resources.
An attempt has been made in these
| booklets to answer with strong, prac-
teal facts, every question farmer,
business man or prospective home
seeker could ask about this great,
growing State, and the opportunities
offered to the newcomer. Eulogies
and essays have been crowded out by
the abundance of substantial mater
ial, such as should, indeed, be more
useful to those who have before them
the very serious matter of selecting a
future home.
That Missouri is increasing in
wealth, that her natural resources are
being brought to fuller develop
ment and that investments in her
lands are profitable, is demonstrated
by the increase in land valuation dur
ing the last five or six years, this in
crease representing not an advance
in price of undeveloped properties,
but a natural growth in physical i'm
provements and earning power. The
total assessed valuation of Missouri
lands in 1907. was 1888, 454, S5l. In
1912 it was 81, 1872, 800, $50, and in
crease of 1894, 445, 7Ol, or about IS
per cent. It will be remembered, OF
course, that the assessed valuation is
only about one-half of the true mar
ket value of the land.
Copies of these booklets may be
obtained from j. N. Anderson, Immi-
grafton Agent, Missouri Pacific build
ing, St. Louis.
Every loyal Missourian should sup
plement this splendid work of the
Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain by
sending to the Company's Immigra-
ton Department the names and adj
dresses of friends and acquaintances
who might be influenced to come to
Missouri to locate.
This kind of cooperation is prac-
teal and citizens of the community
have here an opportunity of using,
absolutely without cost to them, a
thoroughly organized and most eff
Gent agency for advertising the great
resources of the State.
Such work on the part of this great
railroad is thoroughly appreciated by
our people. The public is coming
more and more to realize the value
of the railroad as a powerful devel-
opment factor in the life and pro-
uress of the Commonwealth,
