Attention Farmers.

Attention Farmers.
We, the Bates County Club of the
University of Missouri, wish to act as
your information bureau. We re-
alize that great many inquiries and
questions on agricultural subjects
sent to the University are delayed
because they are not sent to the
proper department and when the in
formation reaches the inquirer 1t is
sometimes too late to be of any bene.
fit to him. For example questions
on horticulture should be sent to the
Horticulture Department, to insure a
prompt reply.
Now, what we propose to do is to
act as a go-between for the farmer
and the professor. We will accept
questions on any subject, refer them
to the proper department or person
and see that they are properly an
swered. Our object is to see that the
question is answered and that the
question reaches the farmer with the
least possible delay.
At this season Of the year many
questions arise such as what grain to
plant after the previous crop, how to
plant it, at what rate to plant it, how
to cultivate it, etc. Many questions
come up in the average farmers
mind and these same farmers would
be glad to write for information re-
,garding these problems if they knew
Of one certain person to whom they
could send all questions and expect
speedy answer.
We will also accept any seed to be
analysed or tested for termination and
see that it is done as quickly as pos
sible. Any soil you have on your
place that you want analysed to de-
termine just what it lacks to make it
produce a bumper crop we will glad
ly have analysed and send the analysis
to you and also directions how the
deficient element can be most eco
nomically supplied. If you have any
stock that need veterinary treatment
send us a full description of the case
and we will see that you get expert
advice. We will furnish you with
practical rations for dairy cattle or
other stock. We will furnish you
with plans and instructions for build
ing new barns or silos. In fact, we
want you to send to us any question
or problem of interest to you and if
we cannot answer it we will frankly
write you to that effect. We trust
that you will not hesitate to call upon
this organization and hope we can be
of some service to the people of Bates
county. Address all inquiries to the
President Of the Bates County Club.

Christ says about His Deity" p. m,
Epworth League. Meeting for young
people; p. m, Evening song service,

The attendance at Sunday school
last Sunday was 105. The attendance
at the morning preaching service was
good. In the evening the attendance
was a decided FROST. Our young peo-

the elder people-leaving the church
at the close of Sunday school or Ep-
worth league, or remaining away en-
tirely.
The pastor will, at an early date,
have prepared a special for the high
school, when an invitation will be
given to attend an evening service in
a body-high school and teachers.
Remember the Sunday school next
Sunday. Hear the sermon on the "Di-
vinity of Christ" next Sunday morn

Money Saving Easter Adds.

Our merchants are receiving many
new lines of spring goods, goods that
you Will. want before Easter and they
are not advertising In the Press with
out having something enticing TO Of
fer you.
The man or woman who makes n
weekly practice OF reading these adds
is the one who knows where to shop
economically; where the best values
are offered for the least expenditure Of
money.
These merchants are not spending
their money with the expectation OF
making a few sales at large profits.
They could not survive under such
conditions. They have marked their
goods down TO the lowest margin OF
profits and are depending upon their
advertising TO bring their offerings to
the attention OF the greater mass OF
people. They are depending upon the
up to date mercantile policy OF many
quick sales at small profits.
IL will pay you 20 read the adver-
tisements, every week, especially be-
fore Easter.

1.-THE CHOCOLATE SOLDIER
COMING.

The modern trend of music has beer
more than cheerfully expressed in the
Straus light opera. "The Chocolate
Soldier" which will be presented a;
the Auditorium Theatre. one night
Tuesday, March 23, by the Whitney
Opera company.
In olden times, or. to be specific
scarce fifty years ago. the composer
worked in conjunction with the au-
thor OF work. Today the musician
takes the literary work and moulds IL
to the form and fashion of the musica,
theme.
NO man has been more aggressive in
MS assertive individuality than the
KING OF composers. Oscar Straus. He
mas been the most radical reformer In
light opera musical themes, with the
possible exception of De Bussey.
When all the workers I'm arts and
letters stood aghast at Bernard Shaw's
Arms and the Man." and trembled
and thrilled at the unique comedy sa-
trical theme of the play, it took a
Straus to evolve one of the most dar-
ingly romantic plots of musical har-
mony about subtle comedy which
made two continents Tilt, sing and hum
in the streets, cafes. eating places and
homes of Europe and America.
Straus was attracted to the Shaw
work from its setting in picturesque
Bulgaria Mr. Whitney, the producer,
to be assured of absolute accuracy
went all the way to Bulgaria. There
he lived for a summer and became a
part of the homely atmosphere of these
romantic hills. He studied closely the
costumes, manners and customs of the
peasants, as well as the coloring OF
the natural scenery. The result o. his
summers work was a detailed prcsen-
tation of light opera which has gain
ed the approval of two continents with
the record run of musical production

SCHOOL BOND BEATEN.
Surprisingly Large Vote Cast, s5i for
and ase Against.

AT the special bond election Sasur-
day 'tRe proposal to issue bonds was
defeated, the vote being 254 for the
bonds and $50 against them The only
surprising thing about the election
was the size of the vote polled. Advo-
Gates of the bonds when they encoun-
tered the bitter personal opposition to
this issue at the meeting at the
school building a few days before the
election conceded that the proposition
would be voted down, partly on ac-
count of the location and partly be-
cause OF sectional sentiment that had
been developed on false premises. The
vote cast. 504, included some on both
sides whose right to vote might be
called into serious question, owing to
lack OF understanding as to what
constituted legal voter.
The result shows an increase in vot-
ing population about equal to the in
crease In school attendance. In 1910,
two years after the bonds were voted,
the number OF children enrolled was
179. Horse Island and Igo then had
no schools and all the children came
to the American Falls school. The at
tendance now, including Horse Island
and lgo, is about 450. or an increase
of 271 In four years. The school GEN.
sus OF 1914, which includes all between
six and twenty-one years uf age,
whether they attend school or not, was
AIT. as against S57 IN 1913. There are
now In attendance about 80 children
more than last years census showed.
The census for this year will proba-
bly, show close to 500 children OF
schol age. and the number will rapid
ly increase from year to year. Look

"AXNAN" CONFESSES
KILLING FAMILY OF 4
Man Under Arrest at Buffalo
Tells Of Chicago Crime.

CHICAGO, ILL. = The mystery of
the Blue Island ak murder of July,
1914, has solved itself. To escape the
tOrtures of his own conscience, Cast
mer Areiszewski, the murderer, gave
himself UP to the police of Buffalo, N.
Y, and wrote and signed a confession.
1t was for the little hoard which he
knew to be hidden in Jacob Mislich's
bed tick, said Areiszewski, that he
killed Mislich, his wife, his daughter,
and his granddaughter. But the crime
did not yield even the sordid reward
for which it was committed. Just as
Areiszewski had cleared his way to
the money a dog barked-and ever
since, he says, he has been unable to
sleep without hearing and being
awakened by dream dogs barking.
'It was as I killed the last-tke
granddaughter-tha the watch dog

Moisture Absorbed by Granite

A coat made Q granite, while per-

in thin sheets is flexible might be
thought to be storm proof; yet granite
will absorb a considerable amount of
moisture If q cubs yard of granite
that had been completely dried out
