ARMS A WALLOP
The city council last night passed
an ordinance prohibiting the sale of
guns to any one that doesn't show a
permit from the chief of police. Deal
ers who do not observe the ordinance
will lose their license.
The council also appropriated $1O,-
900 for Aid. MerTiam's crime COM
mittee.
A surprise was given the council
when States Atty Hoyne appealed to
the body for funds for his war to ex-
terminate gunner. He also showed
up the refusal of A A. Mccormick,
president of the County Board, to aid
in this campaign. Mccormick has
vetoed all bills to this end so far.
CAS- most of the crime in Cook
county is committed in. Chicago"
said Hoyne, 81 would respectfully re-
quest that in connection with such
application for funds you consider an
appropriation of money for the U5e,of
the states attorney to aid him in the
detection, arrest and prosecution of
gunner (so-called), burglars, safe
blowers and pickpockets. ask for
an appropriation of $4,000 or $10,-
900.
my reasons for such request are
that:
''First-The appropriation made by
the County Board for the states at
torney's office in the annual appro-
priation bill passed February % last
was and is insufficient.
Second president of the
County Board and a minority there
of have sought and are seeking in
every way to obstTUct the states at
torney in the detection and prosecu-
ton of criminals by holding up cur
rent bills for expense, even though
the appropriation for the Office has
not been exceeded.

torney's Office for current expenses
to the amount of about $4,000 were
passed by a majority vote of the
County Board some months ago, but
were unlawfuIly vetoed by the presi-
dent of the County Board.
''Fifth-There are additional legal
and equitable bills of like nature
which have not yet been presented,
including bills for automobiles and
hotels incurred IN the arrest and de-
tention of one Franche, alias Duffy

Court is invalidating. Mr.. Wilson has
intimated that the work of Congress

Court would advise Congress upon

4 STILL BIGGER DREADNAUGHT.

What will be the limit in the size
of battleships of the future?
Judging from plans of a battleship
which the naval architects are now
preparing, it would be hard to make
an estimate. The plans are for a
vessel $50 feet longer than any dread

limit may still be far distant. The
plans call for ship $50 feet long.

twenty-one 6-inch guns, the total cost

The ship is being designed for use
in event that Congress votes only one
battleship. After the proposal by the
United States that England and this
country build only one battleship each
this year. the new ship might be
taken as an attempt to make up in
size what was lacking in numbers.

COOPERATIVE GOVERNMENT.

opening of the special session of Con-
gress last spring that the President of
the United States was a human be-

his services would be loaned to Con-

functions of Congress rather than
merely exercising his veto power. The
executive chamber became an active

1918 RECORD LIBRARY YEAR
Report of H. o. Severance Shows That
1857 Volumes Were Added,

Nineteen hundred and thirteen was
a record breaking year in the history
of the University library. The report
of II. o. Severance. librarian, shows
that 1857 volumes. not including
pamphlets, were added to the library.
This is the largest number added in
than was added during the first thir-
ty years of the library's history. The
largest number added during any pre-
ious year was 5000 volumes. The
library now contains l29,597 volumes
in addition 10 pamphlets.
OF these 1857 volumes are bound
periodicals and $500 are gifts and ex-
changes. Two thousand of the vol
umes were added to the agricultural
library
These additions probably will cause
the library to take higher rank
among state university libraries. Ac-
cording to statistics for 1912, Missouri
ranked seventh in most respects. 1t
then had 11S.000 volumes, and Michi-
gan with 322,O00; California, 259, 900;

TWELVE EDCCATIONS.

Two progressive youngsters want
ed to attend Farmers Week, but did
not have the necessary $25. The St
Louis Republic helped them get the
money. In subscribing to the fund
Judge John r. Hairston of Fayette
suggested that The Republic start a
campaign for funds that would put
twelve Missouri farm Eoys in the Col
lege of Agriculture. The judge sub
scribed 800 toward the fund himself
An effort will be made to raise
$500 to give each boy one years
schooling. Each student will be al
lowed $3.50 for his tuition. laboratory
fees, board and room rent. He will
have to earn his clothing and his
books.
The movement is commendable be-
cause it provides a means for twelve
boys who otherwise would not be able
to obtain an education. Twelve boys
among all those of Missouri are not
many. but the influence which twelve
good farmers will yield in as many
districts of Missouri will add ma
terially to the wealth and cOnserva-
ton of the state.

VIEWPOINTS

Editor the MissOurian:-Is il any
wonder the farmers oppose reciprocity
and ship subsidy and think they are
getting the worst of the deal i'm the
tariff when they have preached TO
them such things as this: The farm
er is the producer. All others are
consumers"
When the editor of a farm paper
tells the people such things from the
platform there is no telling what he
may preach in his columns. There
ought to be some way of stopping
such antiquated tommy-rot. Why
wouldn't it be good thing to start a

FROM WASHINGTON'S LIBRARY
william Jewell Man Has Two Books
That First President Used,

Ward II. Edwards, librarian at Will
liam Jewell College, who attended
Farmers Week, has in his private
library two volumes on farming that
are from the library of George Wash
ington. VarlOw's Husbandry is the
title. The books were printed in 1855.
129 years ago, and have the authentic
book plate of Washington made up of
the Washington coat-of-arms.
Though these two volumes were
written over a hundred years ago and
contain about the first information
printed on agriculture. they offer many
of the same sociological arguments
that are given today i'm defense of
scientific farming. Farmers then
were advised TO rotate their crops and
10 fertilize their fields The books
nave tables showing how this rotation
of crops should be carried on, and the
per cent of increase to be gained by
such changes.
An interesting economic point
brought out in one of the volumes con-
