that city. A similar campaign is now
on i'm St. Louis. The people of Mis-
souri, should hope that the quack will
be driven. not only out of St Louis,
but out of the state. This would be a
good thing for our legislature to take
up. If the laws are not strict enough
to stop their practice. then new ones
should be passed.
The fake doctors are worse than
thieves, confidence men and others
who get money by false means be-
cause the methods of the quacks result
in greater bodily harm and prolonged
suffering. They are criminals and
their practices should be prohibited.

Uses the Waste.

Editor the Missourian: n:-Anti-tuber-
culosis societies in ST. Louis have
found new way of raising funds
Waste paper is the source Members
of the societies canvassed the city in
their motor cars before Christmas and
collected more than $1,000 worth. The
experiment proved so successful that
teams and wagons are hired to collect
the refuse Contributors are notified
through the daily papers when the
wagons will pass their house.
Old magazines. newspapers and
wrapping paper accumulate in every
home. They usually are burned in the
alley on cleanup day. The amount
collected in st. Louis shows how much
money is being thrown away in large
cities. The paper that is collected
during a year will add materially to
the tuberculosis fund The charity
organizations of Columbia might turn
a similar waste into revenue. NJ. y. B.

on COLLEGE GROUNDS.

The decision of the Missouri Valley
Conference to confirm the rule that
collegiate football shall be PLAYED on
college fields should be enough to 81
lence the supporters of the Back to
X. G." movement.
There was very little discussion over
the matter at the conference. The
matter was definitely settled when it
came up. With SO many votes con-
curing, Missouri should feel the cor
rectness of her stand more strongly
than ever.
This definite vote of the conference
should also alleviate any bitterness
on the part of those who really de-
sired the game i'm Kansas City. While
the strongest support of the move
ment came from Kansas City, Missouri
does not feel that the motives of the
Kansas Citians were selfish. 1t was
only the fact that their interests were
more strongly awakened by the con-
trOversy being centered in their city
that caused them to take so strong a
part
Kansans, no doubt will let the mat
ter drop. This year will be Missouri's
turn to visit Lawrence and the Law
renee people should be satisfied with
the possibility of having such a game
on their own athletic field.

VIEWPOINTS
The (,lep Club.

Editor the MissOurian The Glee
Club won great victory recently that
should do the University of Missouri
a great deal more good i'm some ways
than all the athletic contests of the
year. 1t was an extensive Western
trip in competition with thirty other
schools.
This "trip will put the University of
Missouri before the eyes and ears of
many persons who have never heard
of it before. 1t will awaken these peo-
pie to the advantages offered by this
University; it will make them realize
that here in the Middle West is real
seat of learning and of culture.
There are many persons, who never
read athletic news, that perhaps never
hear of many universities and colleges
i'm the United States. The Western
people may hear more or less of the
universities in their vicinity, but it is
doubtful if they ever hear much about
them in this section.
A glee club il greatly appreciated
when it is a good. clever organization
and Missouri has always had the repu
tatiOn of having such club. The resi-
dents of this state are enthusiastic
over visits that have been made to
them by past glee clubs. so this years
club. which promises to be as good or
better than the best of its predeces-
sors should do much towards advertis-
ing the University &. +. NJ

JUSTICE FOR THE QUACKS.

Quack doctors are one of the great
set nuisances of our large cities. and
to some extent they are a very object
iOnable element in the smaller towns.
They are parasites on the poor, the
sick and unfortunate
Misleading statements in advertise
ments enable the quacks to get consul
tatiOns with people who are not dis
eased but who can be led to think
they are. The symptoms given are
such as would include even persons
in normal health.
lncurables are led by promises of
sure cures to take treatments. Per
sons in such a condition always have
hope and the misleading statements
of the fake doctors persuade them TO
take one more chance.
The quack does not aim to let any
one escape him-sick. well or incura-
ble-so long as the patient has money:
all who apply are told of some ailment
and the quack relies on human dread
of disease and his skillful deception
to wiring from the person the highest
possible fee.
Suffering. permanent injury or even
loss of the patients life is of little
consequence in the mind of the hard
ened quack. The fee is his only OBJ
ject. and il is those least able to pay
who are the victims.
In Chicago recent campaign led
by the Chicago Tribune was success
full in driving the fake doctors from

FIRST SILO IN L. 8. BUILT IN 1875
Bulletin Says Silage Is Cheapest and
Rest Cattle Food.

A brief history of the silO is given
in a recent bulletin of the Missouri
State Board of Agriculture. The silo
principle, according to Prof. c. II.
Eckles of the College of Agriculture,
is of ancient origin. In Greece and
Rome it was a common practice to
bury grain and green feed in pits. In
Northern Europe the custom has been
used for hundreds of years. chiefly
on account of the difficulty in curing
hay.
The practice attracted little atten-
ton until 1877. when a French farmer
named GObbart published a book Civ
ing his experience of twenty-five years
in preserving green feed in this man
ner. The first real silo was built
about 1865 by Adolph Richlen. a sugar
manufacturer in Stuttgart. Germany.
This was probably the first time In
dian corn had been used for silage.
The first silO in the United States was
built by Manly Miles of Michigan in
1875. Soon the experiment stations
took it up. Today there is probably
one silO to dozen farms in the east
ern half of the United States.
The bulletin is devoted to dis
cussion of the use of the silO. II is
based upon replies received from 1000
farmers to whom sets of fifty ques-
tions were sent relative to their ex-
perience in feeding silage of various
kinds.
The bulletin shows that silage. in
proper proportions with other kinds
of feed. is the cheapest and best feed
for cattle. Ii also discusses the vari
Gus kinds of silOs. and their care.

TRANSIT SERVICE
ON NORTH SHORE
Zone More Accessible to MAN.
haitian by Trolley Lines
Across Bridge.

One of the salient features of the
real estate movement in Queens Bor-
ough is the land buying and structural
improvement of its north shore.
Because of the rugged character of
the north shore of Queens Borough
and the placidity Of its water front
aquatic sports are INDUCED in extern
sively, and yacht and boat clubs are
numerous. In the last two years, too,
the north shore has been made more
accessible to and from Manhattan by
the operation of its trolley lines across
the Greensboro Bridge and their con-
Meeting with north and south bound
cars in Manhattan. In addition to those
transit facilities the branch of the
Long Island Railroad that serves the
territory connects directly with the
Pennsylvania station, in Manhattan.
The problem of a sewer system for
Queens, which has long engaged the
attention of the Board Of Estimate and
its engineers, does not involve Beech
hurst, inasmuch as a street and sewer
system has been built there, and the
circumstance has much 10 do with the
steady building movement in this
Queens home colony, which because OF
the logic of its geographical situation
is destined to remain suburban in char
acter.

of the building cost consists of labor.

year. There is a general falling off in
building operations. Money for new
schools is almost impossible to get"
