A Corn Growing Contest.

We want 10 interest every boy in
Missouri in the Boys Corn Growing
Contest for 1918. Every boy between
the ages OF 10 and 20 years is eligible
and all we ask you 10 do is to send in
your name, age and address and we
will enroll you in the contest and will
send you full directions in regard to
planting, cul!ivating and selecting show
corn.
The next State Corn Show will be
held in Columbia, January l2-1 10,
1914, and We will distribute over $1,000
in prizes to the boys and Young men
Of the state. These prizes will be
given for bas, ten ear samples in both
white and yellow corn from each olthe
five sections Of the state. The Missouri
Ruralist Of Kansas City, Mo, has given
$500 in cash for the best acre yields
reported by boys and in addition to
this they are also giving a trophy to be
given permanently TO the boy showing
the best single ear.
There will be lot Of special prizes
and all boys will have a chance 10 win
something. Now, boys, send in your
names at once. Don't think you are
working at a disadvantage because
your section has never made any special
winning, for the state has been so di.
vided that soil conditions are fairly
uniform. Send in your name at once,
secure some seed corn from reliable
grower and pan 10 be one Of the win
ners. Write me to-day for any infor
nation AMI be sure to enter the con
test. T. K. DOUGLASS,
Secretary Missouri Corn Growers As
sociaiion, Columbia, Mo.

be necessary TO maintain an eight
months term Of school at the following
salaries:
(a) Forty dollars per month for
third grade teacher.
(b) Forty-fve dollars per month
for second grade teacher.
(c) Fifty dollars per month for
first grade teacher.
The district isrequired to apply only
40 cents on the 500 to the payment
of teachers wages. The remaining
Us cents can be used for incidental
purposes. Out Of this Is cents library
books and other needed equipment
can be bought. Thus the state indi'
rectly gives aid for libraries and equip
ment. Each district in the state should
set aside $40 for library books next
year and should purchase the books
that will help the teacher to carry out
the state course Of study. In many
districts some money should be used
in improving the sanitary conditions Of
the buildings and grounds.
The average rate Of levy in the towns
and cities having classified high schools
is Sis on the 500. Surely the
country districts can afford to pay 65
cents on the Sl00, which is rot three
iiiths as much as the towns and cities
are paying.
Yours truly,

joint was heavy, sou never knew
whether it was going to hold, or not.
But with the use Of electricity in max
ing the weld, the fibre Of the two
pieces OF metal are made TO flow into
each other and so become practically
one piece. The success Of this new
method was recognized at once, and
now you have hardly a tool or piece Of
machinery on your farm but what is
electrically welded where there is a
junc;ure of metals, The present state
of perfection OF garden and barnyard
tools, mowers, reapers, binders, thresh-
erS, cultivators, kitchen utensils, dairy
machinery, edge tools, chains, auto
mobile engines and steering gears,
bottoms Of oil cans, frames Of bicycles,
ETC., is made possible through electric
welding. The same process produces
Pittsburgh Perfect electrically welded
fencing, made by the Pittsburgh Steel
Company, whose advertisements are
appearing regularly in this paper
Pittsburgh Perfect" Fencing is a solid
one piece fabric with many distinctive
advantages, among them being the
ease with which it is strung, the great
tension to which it can be stretched
because Of the absolute elimination Of
long" and short" line wires, the
smooth surface, making wire cuts i'm
possible, and the neat appearance Of
the fence. The welded joints in
Pittsburgh Perfect are twice as
strong as the wire itself, because two
wires are made into one by electricity,
which also piles the galyanizing around
the joints, adding greatly to the life Of
the fence. Modern methods OF man
uiacture in many lines have been greatly
benefited by the discovery and prac
tice Of welding by electricity,

WOmens Short Course Changes Dates

Two years ago the College Of Agri-
culture, in an effort to extend to young
women Of Missouri the same advantages
which have been accorded 10 young
men for the past seventeen years, es-
tablshed a seven week Shor, Course
for Women. Last winter the enroll
ment increased TO twenty zone. The
course is proving so practical and so
popular that all indications point to a
continuation Of this growth in attend
ance.
With the increased enrolment and
the probability Of still further increase
it has seemed desirable 10 change the
dates Of this course. Instead Of Jan
uary and February it will now be given
during November and December. Next
fall the course will start October 3lst
and continue Tor seven weeks. This
change will give the women in this
course a much better opportunity 10
select boarding and rooming places by
avoiding the congestion caused by
various other short courses which are
held after the holidays.
Information in regard to the Short
Courses may be had by addressing the
College Of Agriculture, Columbia, Mo.

Yours truly,


The new law making it possible for
the governor TO put progressiyes on
boards where he ought TO put repub,
licans is one Of several plans adopted
by the democratic leaders to use pro
gressives like the monkey used the
cato rake chestnuts out OF the fire.
A progressive willing to be used as a
cats paw is sure to be employed by the
democrats when needed.

YOnr Dollar and Others,

A dollar is not much money when it
stands alone but when $4,000 loyal
republicans each contribute one dollar
to the state committee fund that fund
will open the way for a great change in
the political situation. Your dollar and
the dollars Of the other good repub-
licans who contribute to that fund will
enable the republican state committee
to do big things for the party and the
state.

Corn Varieties for Missouri.

The farmers Of Missouri have in the
past lost considerable because Of the
fact that they have not grown corn
varieties which were adapted to their
respective sections Of the state. In
rlany instances, because corn has
failed to mature in some certain year,
extremely early varieties have been
secured, which has materially decreased
the yield. A corn variety to give
best results in any section should ma
ture early enough to be safe from frost,
yet it should be late enough to utilize
the greater part Of the growing season
in order to insure a large yield.
The results Of the 1912 co operative
corn tests Of the Missouri experiment
station, conducted in practically all
the counties OF the state, show Com
mercial White to be the highest yield
ing variety in the test. There is con
siderable objection to this variety, how
ever, dus to the fact that it is always
late in maturing. Good seed Of this
variety is very hard to secure, however,
as few men are growing it, The
Boone County White and Keid's Yel-
low Dent varieties stand next to the
Commercial White and seem we'll
adapted to practically every section
Of the state. The Boone County White
has a tendency 10 be slow in maturing
but does unusually well on the bottom
lands and richer uplands Of the state.
The Reid's Yellow Dent is a variety
that will mature practically every year
and seems well adapted 10 lands Of av-
erage fertility The Johnson County
White takes practically the same re-
quirements as the Boone County White
and is well adapted 10 the better lands
Of the state. St. Charles White, St.
Charles Yellow and GARNER are varieties
which have been developed to suit
local needs. The St. Charles White
seems especially adapted to the Mis-
Soun River bottoms, as well as to the
lowlands Of southeast Missouri. For
the better lands Of the Ozark region,
the varieties recommended for general
upland conditions are good, but for
the average Ozark uplands, varieties
like the old fashioned Calico or Golden
Beauty or the Iowa Silyermine are
preferable.
AS a general recommendation, Com
mercial White, Boone County White
and Johnson County White are the
white varieties which can be most gen
orally recommended, while Reds
Yellow Dent, St. Charles Yellow and
Leaning can be recommended as yell
low varieties which will give fair re
suits in practically every section Of the
state. All of our experiments show
that it is good practice TO secure
seed as near home as possible because
Of the fact that it is more likely 10 be
acclimated. T. R. Douglass.

The Market Letter.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Mch. 31.--
Although receipts Of cattle were light
last week prices eased off 10 to 25
cents on ali kinds. Buyers have no
stocks Of meat on hand to speak Of,
but they figure that a good many cat
tie are about ready for market, and are
playing waiting game. Expectations
for to-day were not realized, as receipts
amounted to but 5000 mead, the light
est Monday for some months. Prices
are steady TO 10 lower to-day, most Of
the loss on beef steers, and there
seems to be Geak and uncertain feel
ing in the air, pointing TO further mod
est declines il receipts continue up to
normal or better. Cows and heifers
are steady to day, cows largely at S5.75
to $7.25, heiiers SO. so to $500, some
sales higher in each class, bulls $500
to $7,25, calves $500 to $9.75.
Dealers say these butcher classes are
about TO receive a big slash in price,
to put them in line with steers, which
have lost more proportionately lately,
and because Of the impending compe,
tition from Texas grass steers, which
will start running right away. Stock
cattle and feeders are stronger to-day,
after two slumpy weeks. Logically
stock cattle should be at their strong
est now, with grass almost here. Texas
sales Of stock cattle for northern pas
lures are being made at record figures,
and conservative cattlemen say that
cattle bought by the head there are
costing more per pound than are cattle
bought on the markets. Beef shortage
is an actual fact, however, and stock
cattle prices are legitimate at almost
any figure. Quarantine receipts are
light to-day, also supply from western
sugar mills. The Johnson quarantines
brought S8.65 to-day, heifers at $500
sugar mill steers $8.4O bulls 81. Hog
receipts to-day 1900 head, fairly good
when compared with recent Mondays,
market stronger on light weights, which
sold at S8.S5 to S9.05, steady to weak
on others, bulk of sales IS. IS to 5000.
Pork consumption is at high figure,
as is always the case when consumers
have to choose between high costing
beef, pork and mutton, pork always
winning out in such contests. It
seems unlikely that receipts will show
much expansion anywhere before June,
and prophets are expecting the market
to work higher in April, Sheep and
lambs are hanging in the balance, with
all signs favoring drop in prices, yet
they manage to almost hold their own.
Sales were 10 higher to day, lambs
largely at 1885 to $500, ewes up to
S6.75, wethers worth up to $500,
light yearlings SITS. Receipts are
5000 here to day, and moderate re
ceipts are expected here till Texas
starts running sheep freely, about a
month hence. - J. A. Richart, Market
Correspondent.

County Supt
The State SuparintCndGnts Letter.
Very respectfully,
JOHN w. BENNETT,

The house and the Senate have
passed senate bill l22. This is a most
excellent law for the rural districts.
Il makes it possible for almost every
district in the state to have an eight
months school at $4,000 per month.
Since the school moneys are not ap-
portioned until July, districts can Sc
cure aid under this law this year.
Every district in the state that has an
assessed valuation OF $4,000 or less
than $4,000 should vote a levy Of
65 cents on the 500 for school pur-
poses and take advantage Of this aid,
A levy Of 65 cents can be voted a, the
annual school meeting without previous
notice being given, as this is one Of
the specified powers Of the annual
school meeting.
In order to secure aid district must
meet the following three conditions:
/. The district must have an as
sessed valuation Of $4,000 or less.
Q. The district must levy 65 cents
on the 500 for school purposes.
8. The district must have main
tanned this year an average daily at
tendance Of IS pupils, or in lieu Of
fifteen pupils, the average daily at
tendance must be 90 percent Of the
last enumeration.
The amount Of aid granted is 500
per district or so much thereof as may

Several bills enacted by the legisla-
ture have already frightened the dem
ocratic state leaders. Missouri demo-
Gratis are particularly afraid Of progress
sive legislation because it is too much
like the work of republicans.

One bill passed BY the legislature
will work revolution in about forty Of
the cities Of the state. 1t gives 10
every city Of from 5000 to $4,000
population the right to adopt the COM
mission form Of city government, and
10 use the recall. This will revolu-
tionize the politics a3 we'll as the gov
ernment OF the principal cities Of the
state, excepting St. Joseph, Kansas
City and St. Louis.
The Taney County republican. (Forsyth, Mo.) 1895-1992, 1913-04-03

Governor Major prefers to sign bills
laid before him and TO let the men
who enacted them stand responsible.
That seems simple enough but the
people recognize the governor as the
head Of the state government and rely
on his judgment more than upon the
judgment Of law makers in matters
seriously affecting public welfare and
private rights. When he signs bill
he assumes a responsibility he canno
aiterward evade.

It was tough on Governor Major to
have 10 consider an act Of the legisla-

A new STATE AID LAW.
School Officers and Patrons
Should Give Heed.

take pleasure in calling your atten-
ton to the following letter from the
state superintendent explaining the
new state aid law that has just passed
the state legislature. This law takes
the place Of the present state aid law
and does away with the small district
limitation and gives aid to any district,
however small, that complies with the
three below mentioned conditions.
Study this letter carefully and you
will see that this law will aid your dis
trict. Let me urge that the districts
take advantage OF it. For further in
formation write me.
On account Of this not having reached
you before the annual meeting, wish
to advise, if you are entitled to state
aid under the new Law, but have not
voted the 65 cents levy, that you call
a special meeting as soon as possible
and vote the 65 cents levy.
am very sorry this information did
not reach you before the annual meet
ing, but this could not be. II you
have voted the 65 cents levy you are
ali right any way, but if not the next
best thing is to hold the special meet
ing as suggested.
Drop me a card il you need state
aid blank.

MAKES OBJECTION
Senator Crawford Refuses Con,
firmation to South Da-
kota Apprentices

WASHINGTON. Feb. Ia. Senator
Crawford interposed objection to the
confirmation of three out CT four South
Dakota nominations which the senate
public lands committee, at a morning
sessi n, had authorized Senator Gamble
to report out favorably. provided the
nominations were acceptable to his
colleague. The nominations were as
follows:
George P. Bennett, to be recorder
of the land office at Rapid City.
W. Hall Irons, to be register of
public lands at Chamberlain.
John L. Lockhart, to be register at
Pierre.
D. W. Marsh, to be receiver at
Pierre.
Senator Crawford gave notice that
be was opposed to the confirmation of
Bennett, Irons and Lockhart; that only
the appointment of Marsh would be ac-
ceptsble to him. This position of the
ju2ior senator, if it shall be persisted
in, will make impossible the confirma-
tion of any of the four, for Senator
Gamble said he would not consent to
the confirmation OF Marsh without the
others. The objection of Senator
Crawford to Bennett. Irons and Lock
hart is based solely on their politics.
Their loyalty to the republican party
has never wavered, Senator Gamble
and Representatives Burke and Martin
declare
Senator Crawford has still further
shown his opposition to the stalwart
republicans of his state by objecting to
seven of fifteen nominations for post
Offices recommended by Representative
Burke and Martin and sent by Taft to
the senate for confrmati IN. Mr..
Crawford has prevented them from be-
ing reported out of rhe subcommittee
on postoffices and postToads.
The following postofices are affected:
Aberdeen, Memo, Springfield, Mo
bridge, Belle Fourche, Corsica and
Gary. Senator Gamble has fled his
Endorsement of all fifteen of these post
Office nominations.
