4 Row of Defendants.

The mans face was long and sal
low. The eyes were overcast by the
bulging forehead, and his ears stood
out thin and yellow against the dull
unkept hair. 1t was a face from
which all the warmth of manhood
and the courage of life had fed.
A woman sat next. Her coarse,
rough hands were folded in her lap.
Her scant yellow hair was drawn
tightly back from a low forehead and
twisted into hard knot. Her shoUl-
ders were round and bent Her eyes
had the moist look that one sees in
the eyes of tired dog. The girl who
sat next to her was little black ana
white thing that reminded one of a
dahlia Her black eyes followed the
judge always. Her face was too young
to be so thin and white.

HE PLAYED THE GAME.

1t was nearly four years ago that
a Tiger captain, playing in the last
few minutes of the last game of the
season, STAYED off defeat and won a
tie for Missouri in the first visit of
Kansas to Rollins Field by drop
kicking a perfect goal. He had been
practicing just that kick a good part
of the season, following his belate
election to the captaincy when the
former leader and drop-kicker had
been injured.
The occasion was tremendous; but
he rose to it and the crowd cheered
his name and his place on Missourl's
athletic history was made secure. Tha;

FARMERS ASK ABOUT RED MOLD
Trouble i'm Silage Is Referred to the
VI. L. College Of Agriculture.

VI. L. College Of Agriculture.
For the last three or four years
Missouri farmers who own silos have
noticed the growth of a peculiar mold
in the silage In some years it has
happened only in small quantities, but
in others it has appeared at a depth
of fifteen feet and has infected areas
two or three feet square, often ad-
herring to the sides of the silos. Sew
eral farmers have written to the Col
lege of Agriculture asking what the
cause of this mold is and what to do
to stop its ravages.
Experiments conducted in the lab
oratory of the department of botany
show that the growth does not occur
without the presence of free oxygen.
Its occurrence in the lower depth of
silos is probably due to the fact that
the silage when packed is not suf-
firiently tramped.
Another factor which has some in
f1uence on the presence of molds in
silage is that of moisture Very often
silage is put away too dry. Molds de-
velop in much greater abundance

F. A. Sampson. former secretary of
the State Historical Society, who re-
turned recently from a visit to San
Francisco, lis the collection of the
Missouri college ANIMALS in the Unit
ed States educational exhibit. The
Savitar is there and there are books
from fourteen other colleges"
In general, the exposition is similar
to others of its kind, but it is much
superior in three things, says Mr..
Sampson. These are the color of the
buildings, the night illumination and
the landscape effects.

Agricultural Training i'm Quebec.

In Quebec the provincial depart
ment of agriculture this year Will IN
augurate summer courses in elemeE-
tary agriculture to Macdonald College
for the training of Protestant public
school teachers, of whom there are
900 as compared with 5000 Roman
Catholic teachers whose instruction is
otherwise provided for. In thus fos-
tering agricultural instruction. Que
bee is following the example of Onta-
rio. British Columbia and other pro-
vinces, and in this connection the Mail
and Empire of Toronto points to the
fact, not generally known in the Unit
ed States, that Quebec is peculiarly
an agricultural province. Outside Of
two or three cities the population is
distinctly and permanently rural.
Quebec communities undergo less
change than those of Ontario, and.
of course, far less than those OF the
west. The tendency of the rural pop
ulation of Quebec is to remain rural.
Unlike the populations of other
provinces in Canada, and unlike those
of the state to the south, the children
of Quebec farmers stick to the soil.
and for this reason it is believed that
agricultural training in the public
schools of that section will be verv
welcome.
The province gives a bonus of sl5
to every teacher that takes the agri-
cultural summer course, and besides
provides the tuition and makes spec
ial allowance in other ways to lighter
the teachers expenses, according to
the newspaper named, the system fol-
lowed is broadly similar to that used
in organizing the teachers summer
school at the Ontario Agricultural
College. By training the teachers in
elementary agriculture the provincial
authorities make it possible to spread
knowledge of this character gradually
throughout the public schools.
It is recognized by educators in
Canada, as it is in the United States,
that elementary agriculture cannot be
taught children of the public schools
too early. The tendency now in both
countries is not only to instruct pub
lie school children in matters relat-
ing to the SOIL in sowing, planting.
cultivating and gathering, as soon as
possible, but as practically as posi-
BILE. Hence the school gardens that
flourish through the growing season
in all parts of the Dominion and of the
United States.
1t is pleasant to learn that Quebec
is contentedly agricultural, and that
the young people of its rural districts
do not constantly yearn for the imag-
mary joys that lure so many in other
parts of the world from the assurance
of the farm to the uncertainty of the
city. Anything that tends to give
them a deeper interest in the soil
must make for their own happiness
and for the good of their country

Why Not A ROusing Four Crop
Club?

To every young farmer in Lee
county The Journal offers con
gratulations for his splendid work
in the past and urgent wishes that
now in the very beginning Of the
planting season each young man
will start out with a determination
to do the very best work that he
has ever done.
There has been some splendid
work done in Lee county in past
years in the work of the young
members of the corn clubs. There
will be some more excellent work
done this year, Of course, as usual.
But why cannot the young farmers
of Lee county have a rousing good
Four-Crop Club contest this year as
well as the usual contest in corn
growing?
There has seldom been a year in
the history of the county when the
need Of Investigation Of crops has
been greater. A Four-Crop Club
contest this year would be the
greatest demonstration in behalf Of
sensible, rational farming that
could possibly be held. 1t would
be the greatest sermon that the
young farmers could preach to their
elders,
Then why can't we have such
contest this year, young farmers2
What is there to hinder the work?
The Central railway offers valuable
and most useful prizes to the young
farmer who wins in such contest
in each county, in addition to the
great good that is done on any
farm by such a practical object

The Journal would be greatly
pleased to see such a contest. Farm

The Rise or The POrksr.

More hogs and less cotton seems
to be the tendency that Lee county
farmers are manifesting IN their
work this year, and it is a whole
some indication. The farmer who
makes enough corn and peanutsand
other food crops to fatten his hogs
and who does not buy these provi-
sions is getting at hog-raising 10 the
only real sensible fashion. There
is no doubt that the farmers Of the
county are raising more hogs, for
there are very sure indications that
the number Of hogs offered for sale
is annually increasing.
The Chicago Journal is authority
for the statement that nearly
| / ,O00, coo more hogs have been sold
at the six chief markets Of this
country thus far this year than in
the corresponding period Of 1914.
The average weight Of the swine
thus marketed is somewhat less than
that of year ago, and in explanta-
ton Of this the Journal says one
need turn only to two sets offigures
on the market page" and con-
tinues:
Cash corn is selling at from Y
to IA cents per bushel, while hogs
are worth around 1856 per 100
pounds. II does not pay to feed
70-cent corn to anything less than
81 hogs-probably porkers would
have to sell well above 81 before the
feed lot, at such corn prices, would
show a favorable margin. But tht
American farmer is not at all dis
couraged. He sells his hogs early
and then sells his corn, too. HI
markets two crops instead Of one.
UNLESS this movement goes fai
enough to deplete the breeding herds
it will be benefit to all coz.
cerned. !"
Lee county farmers are learning
the value Of raising hogs. Farm
demonstration work has aided in
increasing interest and real know
ledge concerning better methods q
raising hogs. Here's hoping every
Lee county farmer will have plenty
of ham and bacon this winter, with

fish people. That England Is in
the final analysis forced to resort to
CONSUMPTION is merely an indication
that the self-sacrifice Of ordinary pa
triotism is not sufficient to fill the
NAV of patriotism here.
Lest we should be inclined to over
rate our own patritism here in Amer
lea, we had better revert in memory
of the days of the Civil war. The
South began what was practically 81
system of CONSUMPTION early in the
war; the North was forced to resort
to drafting the closing years and
the attempt to enforce even this par
tiai CONSUMPTION was attended by @
almost unparalleled in the history of
this nation. At one time, mobs were
almost as completely in control Of
New York city as was the bloody
Commune in Paris, and but for the
presence of Union soldiersc in the
North on furlough, there is no telling
how far the disorder might have
spread.
No this nations patriotism was
not sufficient for it to meet its SUI
premest test without resorting to con-
scripion, and then the CONSUMPTION
was fiercely combatted and resented.
In the event Of any great war, with
demands for millions Of men, 1t is
not likely that this nation can meet
the test without recourse to mea-
sures similar to those now contem-
plated by Great Britain.
