EFFORT MADE 7 0
SWAT BOOSTERS

There have been more swat" move
| ments started in the United States re-
Gently than can be remembered at
! moments notice, but it was left tor
the SHOW Me" state to pull the orig
inal one of the bunch. The scientific
farmers throughout the state have or;
| ganized a movement to do away with
the rooster after a certain season of
each year, and in accordance with that
determination have declared June 6
the swat the rooster" day.
1t is claimed by the experts at the
state university at Columbia that
there will be many advantages in the
movement, and that the quality of the
| eggs that will be laid during the rest
of the summer months will be great
! ly increased on account of them being
infertile.
Experiments have been conducted,
and it is claimed that eggs will keep
/ much better and be more edible when
not fertile than when fertile. All of
! the state institutions and county ex-
perts have been asked to assist in
| the movement and it is estimated that
there will be thousands of the adult
ROSTERS massacred on that day, and
! that by the massacre the Missouri far
mer will save approximately 100000.
One of the leading farm and mer.
camille magazines of the country has
exploited the movement for some time
and prints an article regarding it that
will be Of interest. The following is
an extract from the story that ap-
peared in the "Banker-Farmer"
June s will be day of doom for
the Missouri rooster. Swat the
Rooster will be the slogan which will
undo him. The rooster is the direct
cause of loss to Missouri farmers
and poultry raisers of fully $4,000
900 every summer, loss that could
. be prevented by the simple expedient
of getting rid of the adult male birds
as soon as the Matching season is
! over. It is the fertile eggs that spoil
in hot weather.
! can infertile egg will keep for
weeks, even when subjected to high
temperature for weeks at time. A
general observance Of Rooster day
Throughout the state is expected to
make Missouri eggs sought after in
the fancy egg markets of the world,
and add millions to the income of
poultry raisers. Other state have
heard the battle cry and are arrang-
ing similar Rooster days.

CRISWELL is TOO
LATE FOR HIS MAN

Constable M. w. Criswell has re-
turned from Chicago, where he went
in search for Edward H. Mcclure, who
was accused of passing worthless
checks on several merchants in the
city. Mr.. Criswell located the place
where the man had been staying up
until few days ago, but he had left
without saying where his destination
would be. Mcclure was employed
here by the Law and Order league as
a detective about year ago and it is
alleged that the checks were passed
at that time.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
VOCATION AND JOB.


One Of the most vital services voca-
tional guidance can render is to anal
we our industries and train our youth
to distinguish between vocation
and a job" says the Federal Bureau
OF Education in statement on voca-
tional guidance and child labor.
The statement indicates that the
present movement for practical edu-
cation finds greater stimulus from the
industrial rather than from the edu-
cational point of view. Out of a
group of 101 boys between IA and 16
years Of age in New York City vo-
catiOnal survey including an analysis
of the work they are doing, shows, ac-
cording to the bureau; but of them
with an opportunity for advancement
or improvement The other SO are in
hopeless positions.
The bureau states that study of
the annual contribution of the city
schools to the business interests of
the community shows considerable
per centage thrown into the discord
within the first month; that another
large percentage goes drifting from
job to job, sometimes advancing,
quite as often receding, the indus
tries complaining that the children
the schools turn out are no good, and
that the children lose courage, en-
thusiasm and youthful idealism in the
various meaningless jobs which they
are assigned.

THE PLEASURE OF CAMPING.

Our people are just waking up to
the pleasures of camping out on the
banks of the classic Stoner. A num-
Der of parties have picniced this sum
mer at "Gass Springs" and The
Ford" and all have thoroughly en-
joyed their outings. An outing OF this
character is much more health
full and restful, and infinitely cheaper
than the customary visit to the sum-
mer resort, and the campers invaria-
bly, come home strengthened and
tanned, refreshed and filled with new
life, and ready for the tasks before
them. No stream contains better op'
portunities for this purpose, or has
more classic and beautiful secenery
on its banks, than Beautiful Stoner,'
and we are indeed glad to note the
growing prevalence of local picnicing
parties on it's banks.

CONDITION OF BALL PARK.
Owners Say the Field Will be Better
Later in Season.
Editor of The Reformer:

Editor OF The Reformer:-
During the flood of April 3Ist last
the Island park ball field vas covered
with water to the depth of from four
TO five feet. This food left the grass
covered with heavy deposit OF river
sand. We immediately commenced the
work Of removing this sand AMI doing
the other work made necessary by the
fool with a lot OF men and horses and
the work is still unfinished, although
many hundreds of loads OF sand have
been removed. Any one who has tried
to remove sand from grass ground AT
ter the grass has started to grow, rs II
had this year on account of the lateness
OF the flood, will appreciate the diff
Guilty of our task.
Considering this fact and also rcaliz-
ing that We have not encouraged the
playing of ball games on the park until
the field is in good condition 1t seems
to Us that it was hardly necessary ON
the part of the sporting editor Of The
/ Reformrr 10 give no less than five
/ different mentions Of the fact that
| the field WAS not in good condition i'm
/ his report of Wednesday : game. {,
/ game which aEounded in 50 many other
features fully rs worthy of mention
While we cannot guess the reason We
/ believe the writer of the article il
/ question has some object in spccializ
ing on the condition Of the bail field
and we are willing to make his tasR
easier by concedin@ that the Islam,
park field is not in as good condition
as it will be after nature does its par
and sends some rain to supplement ON
labors.
