IGNITED Home
Mr.. and Mrs. Wagner Re-

Then Fire Eytinguishes
Itself.

When Mr.. and Mrs. L. F. Wagner Of
Jackson returned to their home from
church Saturday night at about 9
o'clock, they found the smoke rolling
cut OF the windows and doors, and the
premises apparently on fire.
Igan Obermiller, a boarder, had ar
rived just ahead of them and when he
attempted to enter the hall door, he
was almost suffocated with the smoke.
He had opened the front and rear
doors, and was in the act of opening
the windows when Nj. and Mrs. Wag-
ner appeared.
After the smoke had cleared away
sufficiently for them 70 enter the
premises in safety, they discovered
that q hole three feet in diameter had
been burned in the center OF the floor
\ the sitting room. The stove which

son It had becor.e extinct. When the
top was lifted on the stove, a large
Hr2rty bottle was discovered lying on
'op Of the Goals, and had evidently
been placed there in the absence Of the
family.
Nothing was missing from the
premises except a basket fuH OF
I,ind.iHg. The basket was empty and
every stick Of kindling had been re-
and no trace of it left any
where.
Mr.. Wagner thinks some enemy en-
tered TIE house and built the fire for
he purpose Of destroying the home.
The mysterious fire has puzzled the
country side.

order that readers Of this article may

STATE WATER SUPPLY
Ing nearing Professor Believes this
knowledge Essential t. Public
II -altl in Future.

Columbia, Mo-, March S-"The time
is rapidly approaching when it viii Be
Of utmost advantage to the State of
Missouri TO be in possession of com
plate information regarding all of the
! water resources within its borders.
The interests of public health demand
that these problems be solved inteli-
gently and effectively under state adj
vice and control"
This statement was made by T. J.
RodhOuse, associate professor Of by
draulic engineering in the University
Of Missouri at Columbia. Mr.. Rod
house has just completed a bulletin
on - Preliminary Study Relating tc
lie Water Resources Of Missouri"
Pure water, and plenty of it, in ev-
cry home and factory is what we
aeed,' said Mr.. Rodhouse. "Eventual-
y he people of Missouri must find
out the sources from which vastly lar
/ ger amounts of pure water can be OBJ
tanned, and we will have to observe
better methods for the prevention of
the pollution of streams. the source
I'm which most of our water supply
must come. We are now behind many
other states in the matter of proper
regulation and control of our water
supply"
Mr.. Rodhouse believes that the
Ozark region offers many opportuni-
ties for power development. He also
says the natural springs in this region
are the best in the entire Missouri and
Mississippi Valleys.
'In the northern port of the State
there are two problems" said Mr..
Rodhouse, "the surface water supplies,
and the drainage of the lowla1ds
along the rivers and flood protection.
The rivers of North Missouri have not
sufficietn fall for the development of
water power as an economic PROPOSE
ton, the land which would be covered
with water if dams were constructed
being gilmore use for agricultural
than for power purposes"
In order to obtain sufficient infor-
nation regarding the special charac-
teristics of any stream it is necessary
to observe its daily fluctuations over
a period of some five of ten years. 1t
is for this reason that complete infor-
nation regarding the water resources
of Missouri will not be ready for some |
time. The Engineering Experiment |
Station now has gage readers employ
ed in several different parts of the !
State. The record of observations
made by these men is being kept at !
the University of Missouri.
The bulletin which has been prepar-
ed by Mr.. Rodhouse has in it a large
map Of the complete drainage areas
Of the principal rivers in the State.
The bulletin may be obtained from the
Experiment Station, Uni
versity Of Missouri, Columbia. /
