the early hatched pullets make the

New Service For Farmers
Tree.

The organization Of some Of the
leading farmers in Missouri has
brought about a system by which
farmers can buy and sell their own
farm products with very little effort
or expense. This organization
is means by which farmers are put in
touch with each other when they want
to buy and sell an article. Farmers
put in direct touch with each other
this way insures low cost OF transpor'
tation; minimum cost, whether it is
seed, feed, stock or a farm, and as
high quality as the farmers produce.
This organization is the Missouri
Farmers Exchange, which was organ
lied during Farmers Week Of 1913
by the leadership Of Prof. D. H. Doane.
The assistance the members Of the
Farm Management Assn. received by
listing their wants" and "ior sales"
with their secretary showed us the
possibilities Of such an organization
and the benefit it would be TO the
Missouri farmer; so the mass meeting
Of farmers present formed this separ-
ate organization, the Exchange.
Our plans have been in operation
for over year and have proven bene
fetal TO many Missouri farmers. We
have bought and sold practically every
thing that has been raised on the farm
Members has saved as much as $50. 90
On single deal by using this method
Of Farmer buying direct fran farmer"
We elected farmers from over the
state as officers, and appointed a secre-
tary with an Office in Columbia, who
was TO keep a list Of the farmers
wants" and for sales" and put
those in communication who wish to
trade. This plan has been a great
success, and with slight change SO
that we can benefit more farmers we
have begun our second years work
with increased interest from every
source.
Formerly we charged commission
for selling in order TO keep up the
expenses, hut as the expense is moi
great we will not charge commission
With this plan we expect 10 secure
5000 members by the close Of the
: season. At present our members are
seated well over the state, and ou

Charging Too Much.

The following warning to school
directors OF Stone county has been
sent out by the superintendent OF
schools Of that county, and being in
the immediate neighborbood, Il is fair
to assume that the same parties will
be working in this county. We pub
lish the notice for what it is worth to
school directors and others interested.
Some agents are canvsssing our
county with catalog Of school sup
plies and insist that several OF our
school boards pay them $3.50 for a
small set oI maps and a physiology
chart.
Such outfit in my judgment, is worth
about $1,000, and I do not think that
Any School Board should pay them
more than that much iorit II you will
stand up to them I do not think they
can collect much more.
These agents do not seem to try
to sell the town schools, where it is
easier TO post on the prices, but to,
instead, hunt out the weaker districts
and use their trained arguments on
the most unsuspecting they can find.
/ do not wish these agents perma-
nent harm, but want them to be driven
to work that will be less expensive to
buyers, and more permanent reward
to themselves in years TO come.
1t is usually wastelul to buy from
travelling agents. II you iusit on buy
ing from them it is very apt to bring
censure and reproach upon yourselves,
as well as to discourage rhe cooper
alton Of those who furnish the funds.
1t is your duty to furnish needful
supplies for school work, but school
moneys should be spent according to
law and the State Course Of Study. In
this way you can build up set Of
furnishings and supplies that will give
substantial satisfaction, and increase
school spirit instead Of retarding it.
Yours for the best supplies,

Bob lngersOII On Alcohol,

Colonel Ingersoll, in addressing
jury trying a case involving the manu-
facture Of alcohol, described this arch
enemy Of the human race thus effec
lively:
Il am aware that there is prejudice
against any man engaged in the manu-
iactuie Of alcohol. l believe that from
the time it issues from the coiled and
poisonous worm in the distillery until
it empties into the hell Of death, dis
honor and crime, il demoralizes every
thing that touches II from its source

The Poet Philosopher.

A man holds Office for awhile, and
bleeds and dies in hossy style, TO save
our bulwarks from decay, and then up
on fateful day he finds he is an also
ran-the Office job has dumped the
man. And does he then gird up his
loins, and say: "Tll go and chase the
coins as in the sunny days gone by, ere
l began to bleed and die?" All, no!
He's done with useful toll; you will
not see him till the soil, or curry down
old Dobbin's legs, or scratch around
to find the eggs. He will not plant
the corn in May, or bale the fragrant
juicy hay, or paint the fence or prune
the trees, or herd the humble humble
bees. The Office germ is in his brain
and all your pleadings are in vain. He
has no use for swest-earned kale; he'll
camp upon the Party's trail, where all
the dreary has beens throng, and beg
Tor handouts from the strong. He'd
rather have some dinky job awarded
by the statesman" mob than orna-
ment his native town by holding sane
positions down. You learn a lot oi
tricks and guile, you lose your grip on
things worth while, to useful work you
close your eye, when once you've
learned to bleed and die. Walt Ma
son.

1t is expected that this work will be
completed before the end Of the pres
ent year. Then the canal will be said
to be really in condition for the safe
passage Of ocean going vessel and moi
before.
Some anxiety is manifested By Wal
F. Boyer. assistant engineer in charge
Of aidsssto navigation in the canal itself
over the appearance Of large quantities
Of water cabbage and water hyacinth
that are growing rapidly and spreading
over the surface Of the canal. These
plants are forming in large and small
floating islands, and it is feared will
prove hinderance to navigation.
Within brict period after the clos
ing Of the gates Of Ga,un SpiIlway the
water cabbage began growing along
the banks of the lake that was formed.
Now they have spread all over the sur
face OF the lake and floating about in
great islands that are becoming very
dense. These plants have very long
roots add in shallow water becomes an
chored fast to the bottom. Recently
the water hyacinth made its appearance
and like the cabbage is floating about
in large islands.
The growth Of the latter is much
faster than the cabbage and form in
masses OF great density. 1t is feared
that ships will have considerable diff
Guilty in piercing these masses. Already
means are being considered for the de-
struction Of plants or at least for their
control so the will not obstruct the
channel.
The danger from the plants is said
to be greatest where the canal is mar
rowest because they will there find
anchorage and gradually overspread
the entire waterway. The danger is
regarded as not so great in Gatun Lake
because they have tendency to re-
main near the shore.

Constable Tries Suicide.

Because he made a mistake in sell
ing a span of mules on which he had
levied to satisfy a judgement in favor
Of w. M. Hanley, olSpringfeld, James
B. Bryant, constable Of Finley town
ship, of which Ozkrk is the center,
tried to end his lie with a revolver
one day last week.
Bryant shot himself in the left side,
Just below the heart, the bullet going
entirely through his body. He is not
expected to live through tonight, the
attending physicians, DTs. J. W. Bru'
ton and J. c. Young, saying that the
bullet penetrated the iutestines and
other vital parts Of Bryant's body.
The shooting DC aired in the black
smith shop Of Miller and Boles here.
Allen Millen, one Of the blacksmithsr
had just stepped out Of the shop when
he heard the report OF revolver shot
He ran back ard found the constable
on the floor. He had left Bryant sit
ting on a bench in the shop. The Of
iicer had said little during his visit there
Once while he was looking down at the
floor, Miller asked him what was wrong
He replied, Nothing" but seemed
worried.
3ryant's act is said 10 have beer
brought on through mistake he made
in selling a pair OF mules to satisfy ;
judgment. 1t is claimed he seizeC
mules that belonged to the father o
the man against whom the iudgemen
had been secured by Hanley.
Hanley had an account against Johr
Parker and John Miller. He got judg
ment on it and the constable was in
structed to levy on team Of mules be
lieved to be the property OF Miller
He did and the mules were sold 70
500, the cash being paid to Hanley
Miller's father appeared in Ozark thi
morning and claimed the mules; say
ing that they were his instead Of hi
sons.
Bondsmen for Bryant, who are FL
bert Garrison, Will Keaton and Charlie
Sholenberger, were applied to and the,
paid the money necessary 10 get tn
mules back, but were relieved at ihei
request, as bondsmen for Bryant. Th
constable then went TO the county sea
during the morning and rendered bi
resignation, saying he could not Iurnis,
bond.
It is supposed he worried over tn
trouble to the extent that he decide
to end his life. He is about SIS year
old, married and the father OF thre
grown children. He has lived in o.
ark for a number Of years and is we
known here. Springfield Leader.

All we have to do, gentlemen, is to
think OF the wrecks on either bank OF
the stream Of death, Of the suicides, OF
tn. insanity, of the poverty, Of the ig-
norance, Of the destitution, OF the lit
tie children tugging at the faded and
withered breasts Of weeping and des-
pairing mothers, Of wives asking for
bread, Of men Of genius it has wrecked,
oil men struggling with imaginary
serpents.
I believe every thoughtful man is
prejodiced against the internal stuff
that is called alcohol.
"Inlemperance cuts down youth in
its vigor, manhood in its strength and
age in its weakness. It breaks the
lather's heart, bereaves the doiing
mother, extinguishes natural affections,
erases conjugal love, blots out lilial
attachments, blights parental hope
and brings down mourning age in So
row to the grave. 1t produces weak
ness, npt strength sickness, not health,
death not life. Ii makes wives widows
children, orphants, fathers fends and
all Of them paupers and beggars.
1t feeds rheumatism, nurses gout,
invites cholera, imports pestilence and
embraces consumption. 1t covers the
land with idlenesi, misery and crime,
1t fills our j,ils, almsh)uses and asy'
lums,
1T engenders controversy, fosters
quarrels and cherishes riots. 1t crowds
our penintentiaties and furnishes
victims for the scafold. Its the life
blood OF the gambler, the element OF
the burglar, the prop OF the highway
man and the support Of the midnight
incendiary.
1t countenances the liar, respects
the thief, esteems the blasphemer. 1t
violates obligations, reverences fraud
and honors iniamy. 1t defames benev-
olence, hates love, scorns virtue and
ISLANDERS innocence.
1T incitcs the father to butcher his
helpless offspring; helps the husband
to massacre his vile, and the child tc
grind the pauicidal ak.
1T burns up men, CONSUMES womeI
detests life, curses God and despises
heaven.
1t suborns witnesses nurses perjury
defles the jury box and stains the
judicial ermine.
1t degrades the citizens, debase'
the legislator, dishonors the Statesman
and disarms the patriot.
1t brings shame, not honor; terror
not safety; despair not hope; misery
: not happiness, and with the malevo
lence OF fend it calmly surveys it'
irightiul desolation and, unsatiatec
with havoc, it poisions felicity, kills
peace, ruins morals, blights confidence
Stays reputation and wipes out nationa
honor curses the world anc
laughs at is ruin.
1T does all that and more it mul
ders the soul. 1t is the sum Of al
