fHE STRUGGLES OF RACES.
ewsspins Injunction Against Unfair
ness Of One Race to Another.

Sweeping Injunction Against Unfair
ness Of One Race to Another.
All races have been subjugated, de-
graded and enslaved at some time and
have had to pass through an ordeal as
severe as the one that the blacks have
been passing through In this country
for the last 800 years and more, says
Henry T. Norman in Thoughts Met
on the Highway" Races are much
like vegetables. They grow, bloom,
and go to seed, and Of the many seeds
Of many races new nation springs
up. When a nation is once broken and
scattered 1t never comes together again.
4 nation that once dies never lives
again as a nation. Its fragments min
gle with other races and help to make
new nations.
That Is just what the blacks are do
ing in this country today. If all the
African blood there Is In this country
was covered with black skins there
would be about 2O,OOO.OO0 of black
people in the United States, whereas
now there are only between 100000
or 100000. can point out forty
persons within the limits Of the city
Of Lynn, Mass. that have African
blood In them who pass for white.
And this was the redeeming quality
In slavery, for 1t Is proved by ancient
history, both sacred and :profane, as
well AZ by everything that Is traceable
- antiquity, that the blacks were once
q great nation. But now they are not
q nation and never will be. The only
way to raise them up from the heathen-
lsh and barbarous state into which
they had sunken was to have them
pass through the ordeal Of slavery.
That ID just what makes the Ameri-
can nation superior to all other ma.
lions. It opens wide its doors, or did
ct one time, and says to all races,
sCome and be one with us; we neither
fear nor hate you" The nation that Is
not willing to receive within its b1r-
6erS all those Of other races and ma.
tons that are willing to come and give
them all the advantages of all its inst1-
tutions Is nothing but community Of
Nrants and towards.
There II nothing more ignorant and
disgusting than the shoddy saying in
this country that all races had better
keep by themselves" Those that
peeach that heathenish and cowardly
doctrine are they who hold prejudice
against the blacks. But It does not
hurt whatever, for they, though per-
haps the largest In numbers, are the
weakest portion Of the nation. The
best people-those who are headlights.
pillars Of truth, the real salt and power
of the earth, Gods own mouthpieces-
have no prejudice against races.
Therefore all that n required Of any

The want of these same qualifications
that makes many people degrade them
selves with prejudice against the

Agricultural Extension Service Organized

The University Of Missouri has
taken another long stride in direct
service TO the people. The board Of
curatv;s at their last meeting authorized
a definite organization for carrying on
extension work in agriculture and
home economics. The new organiz-
alton, designated as the Agricultural
Extension Service, brings together all
the members Of the Agricultural
College staff who have been directly
associated with its extension activities
and places the entire service under
one administrative head.
A. J. Meyer has been appointed
secretary Of agricultural extension, in
charge Of all agricultural extension
service. D. H. Doane continues as
state leader Of farm advisers, having
general supervision Of the work Of
thirteen farm advisers located in Pettis,
Cape Girardeau, Scott, Buchanan,
Jackson, Marion, Johnson, Dade,
Audrian, Cooper, Greene, St. Francois
and Saline counties. R. H. Ember'
son will have direct charge Of the boys
and girls club work which he has al.
ready well under way in the three
months since the work was started.
More work is possible because Of
greater efficiency in organization and
the increase Of time which each.worker
will have. All calls for extension
work should hereafter be addressed to
the Agricultural Extension Service,
College Of Agriculture, University oI
Missouri, Columbia.

NJ. U. Hog Cholera Serum

A new hog cholera serum plant will
soon be built by the College Of Agri'
culture Of the University Of Missouri.
Since the Missouri Legislature has
appropriated $4,000 for the building
OF plant Of sufficient size to supply
all the needs CT the state at cost, the
department Of veterinary science has
been making plans for the new build
ing. 1t will be built on a 90'acre
farm two miles north Of Columbia.
Two buildings are planned. One
to be laboratory building, Of brick
or concrete, and the othtr a hyper'im-
mune shed, 232 feet by 1876 feet. 1t
will be capable OF accommodating 500
to 1000 head Of hogs, a number
which will make the daily output Of
the plant more than lSu,UU CUBIC
inches. Everything will be systema,
tized so the hogs can be Grated, bled
and the serum made and handled
with the least possible waste Of time.
The serum made at the College Of
Agriculture is distributed at cost TO
the farmers Of the state. The cost is
| and Is cents a cubic centimeter.
Men from the veterinary department
are sent to administer the serum 10
the diseased hogs. Not only will
prompt action save diseased hogs, but
it will also prevent the plague from
spreading TO other hogs in the neigh
borhoed.

N. U. Has New Stock Pavilion

A new live sthck judging pavilion
that is a composite Of all the good
ideas used in the payilions at the lead
ing agricultural schools Of America has
just been completed at the College Of
Agriculture Of the University Of Miss
ouri at a cost Of $25,000.
The pavilion is the best lighted one
in America, according TO E. A. Trow
bridge, professor Of animal husbandry,
1t is 90 by 100 feet in size, the arena
so by 100 feet, and will seat about
1000 persons. A drop curtain divides
it so that two classes csn be held in
the pavilion at one time.
Under the seats are four rooms, one
ior class demonstration, one Tor stabling
stock shipped in for class use, one for
Offices, and another for toilet, lockers
and shower baths. During the short
course the pavilion may be used for
some athletic events for the short
course students,
The pavilion will be used for classes
in stock judging and stock manag-
ment for both regular and short
course students, and for some OF the
meetings Of Farmers week, Last
winter twenty-five 2-hour classes in
judging alone, requiring 100 head OF
stock, were being held each week.
Between $50 and 500 students were
taking the courses,

When the additions and alterations
to its huge grain elevator at Kansas
City now under way are completed,
the Missouri Pacific Iron Mountain
Railroad will have one Of the largest
plants OF its kind in the world. As
originally constructed, the elevator
consisted OF ten concrete circular
storage tanks, with capacity Of $1,000
bushels each, or 100000 bushels in
all, and the elevator building proper,
with a capacity Of 100000 bushels.
Forty additional concrete circular stor.
age bins, % feet in diameter and "a
feet deep, with a capasi,y Of $4,000
bushels each or 100000 bushels all
told, are under construction, besides
lo smaller bins, with capacity Of "
600 bushels each, or l33, 900 bushels
total.
The latter are what is known as In
terstice" storage bins, and they will
occupy the space formerly left vacant
between the circular bins Of this style
Of elevator. The elevator will have
total Of 50 units Of storage space with
a capacity Of 2,l33,O 900 bushels, which
is more than double its present capac
ity. Two hundred men have been
kept at work on the plant, at night
and day, for the past two months. 1t
is expected that the improvement will
be completed and the elevator in
operation By August lst, in time 10

tising, and said so.
The great department stores Of the
country are kept alive by advertising,
and are coming money by more ad'

You never hear Of a large mercan'
tile house in this country that does not
advertise, and advertise heavily.
II a politician wants to make himself
known to the dear people he uses the
most effective means-newspaper pub
licity. That is advertising,

two line item and stuck it away in the
most obscure corner Of the paper,
would you pass it by in the belief that
it would never be noticed?"
NEVER! You would consider your

too quick to concede that every line

Yes, advertising certainly pays.
There is no ad so small, or insig

There are plenty Of people who want
what you have to sell, but they are

Care Of Eggs on the Farm.

-Four million dollars is a conservative
estimate Of the losses occurring an
nually in Missouri because Of bad eggs.
The loss is borne largely by the farmer
and results in a low price for his eggs
during the summer months. The
great burden Of the loss occurs on the
farm. What can the farmer do to pre-
vent this loss2
Here are seven rules advised BY
the Missouri College Of Agriculture for
the care Of eggs on the farm.
First, market only eggs Of standard
size-twenty.iour ounces or more to
the dozen.
Second, sort out exceedingly large
or very small eggs.
Third, avoid dirty eggs by keeping
clean quarters. Dirt can be removed
with damp cloth, but eggs should
not be washed.
Fourth, remove males from flock as
soon as the breeding season is over.
The presence OF the male birds in
the poultry flock destroys one-half
million dollars worth Of eggs each
month during the summer. Prevent
this loss resulting from the production
Of fertile eggs. Fertile eggs do not
keep well, it costs money TO iced sur
plus males, and the hens are more
productive when no males are present.
Fifth, reject eggs from stolen nests;
that's where mlnY Of the rotten eggs
come from.
Sixth, store eggs in cool, we'll ven
tilated places. Heat assists in chick
development, and also increase the
shrinkage.
Seventh, keep eggs away from odors
such as those from kerosene, cabbage,
rotten food, fresh paint, etc. Food
also influences favor; only clean food
should be fed.
Eighth, market eggs once or twice
weekly. An egg deteriorates in
quality with age.
Ninth, insist that your dealer pur'
chase eggs on loss off" basis, not
just as they come in, At present the
dealer buys all eggs, good bad and in,
different, at the same price, and does
not recognize the difference in quality.
The result is that an average low
price is paid icr eggs. Some eggs
are worthless while others are worth
much more than the average price.
Insist that your dealer candle eggs
during the sulnmer. II he sorts out
bad eggs he can then afford TO pay
more Tor the good.

II Can't 30 Done.

Somebody said that i; couldn't be done,
But he, with a chuckle, replied
That maybe it couldn't" be be woul
be one
Who wouldn't say so till he'd tried.
So he buckled right in, with the trace
Of grin
On his lace. Ilhs worried, he hid il.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.
Somebody seofed: oh, you'll never
do that;
At least no one ever has done it,"
But he took of his coat and he took of
his hat,
And the first thing we knew he'd
begun it;
With the lift Of his chin, and bit Of a
grin,
Without any doubling or quiddit;
He started 10 sing as he tackled the
thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it can
not'be done,
There are thousands to prophesy
failure;
There are thousands 10 point out to
you, one By one,
The dangers that wait to assail you;
But just buckle in with bit Of a grin,
Tuen take of your coat and 20 to it;
Just start in to sing as you tackle the
thing
That can not be done" and you'll
do it.-Grunts from Gardner's.

$40 And A Woman

Of the local paper and see what it has

These will be carefully and pains
takingly checked of with two inch

hunt for a pair Of shoes, or summer
hat, or any one 0! = thousand other
things,
The number Of articles she will
squeeze out Of that ten spot is amaz
ing. Where man would spend it all
in one throw, a woman will have list
foot long.
But woe unto the merchant whose
advertisement is not in the paper
when she goes out TO part with that
ten. He is back number.
For she will have every article cata-
logued before she ever extracts the
long green from her bank" She
will know right where TO 60 for each
purchase, just how much she wants,
and what she is willing 10 pay.
She mas probably consumed six
hours in compiling the list, has killed
another half dozen in the stores, and
will 60 home with six months Of pleas
ure tucked away under her arm or re-
posing in the back end OF the buggy.
But then that is her way, because
she is a woman.

SuSpelding the Custer

The Supreme Court OF Missouri has
apparently found a way to utilize all
the ter-orizing effect Of the custer law
without Furnishing the public BY re-
ducing the number Of firms with which
business may be transacted. II the
custer law were rigidly enforced the
practical effect would be to restrain
trade, doing by law what the law icr'
bids individuals attempting to do.
When the court in December heyily
fined twenty-five lumber companies
and ordered eleven to withdraw from
the state there was a protest from the
business world, not so much because
oil the hardship on the ousted com.
panies as because Of the obvious in
jury to the public. The court has
modified its decree, reducing the fines
in some instances, allowing payment
in ins,allment and suspending the Or
der Of custer, conditioned on the good
behavior OF the defendants.
The court did not indulge in glitter
ing generalities as to good behavior.
This would have left the companies in
the same uncertain position in which
Dionysius the Elder, the ,yrant Of
Syracuse, placed Damocles, when he
hung sword, suspended by a single
horsehaiI, over the sycophant's head.
The companies are not TO be subject
ed to petty complaint. The court
can not arbitrarily oust them. Nor
will the state be put TO the expense,
the trouble and delay Of general custer
proceedings. Following the example
Of the New York federal court which
entered the decree ior dissolution Of
the tobacco trust, the Supreme Court
6xes the conditions Of good behavior"
so specifically that enforcement will
be easy. Whenever one Of the lum'
Der companies joins an association
like the Yellow Pine Manufacturers,
diseriminates agains, buyers, black
lists companies selling outside Of their
territory, agrees with another company
to limit or eurlail the output Of prices,
issues price currents or engages in any
Of the other practices which resulted
in the original custer proceedings, ii will
be driven from the state. Each deal
er is eDjoined TO report any unlawful
combination or attempt to suppress
competition Of which he may hear forth.
with to the attorney general.
The decree, while giving the court
more administrative functions thar
have been usual, seems eminently
practical. The same rule,it j, under
stood, will be used in the case Of the
international Harvester Company and
IN case Of the Polar Wave Ice Com
panY. All Of these businesses are
necessary TO the welfare Of the state
and the state should have the power tc
make them comply with the Law ant
the means Of determining their con
duct with expedition. The reduction
Of the fines by $4,000 will not be re
gretted BY the general public, which
long ago discovered that it pays sucl
fines ultimately.
