Missouri a Great State.

~ SAAo NAA
author, w. L. Nelson, Assistant
Secretary, says:
Missouri has more farm homes
and unincumbered than
has Iowa, Illinois, or Kansas.
Missouri is a state of home
owners. She has fewer rented
farms than Illinois, Iowa, Ne
braska, Kansas or Oklahoma.
In number of hogs Missouri,
with 4,5O5,OO head, ranks sec
ond among all states. The Mis-
souri, hog is not a ''hazle split
ter" but an institution" with
hams and history.
During the last census decade
the value of Missouri lands doub-
led, and correspondingly increas-
ed more than those of any state
to her west, or any state border
ing her on the north or south.
Missouri is a great corn state.
According to the last census, the
leading states in the production
of corn were Illinois, Iowa, In
diana and Missouri. These four
states together reported more
than two-ffths of the total pro-
duction of the United States.
Missouri is truly a center
state. Here is the heart of the
great corn belt. Here is the CEN
ter of great farm values, and al
so the center of improved acer-
age. The statement is also made
that in Missouri is the cattle
center, the hog center, the horse
and mule center, and the center
of farm production for the
United States.

They could get none OF them.
This is the mournfuI tale told By
Nicholas Mcdonald. who went in with
the expedition for the Selig-Tribune
company Mcdonald says one Of the
features Of the chase. which took the
men nearly 200 miles into Mexico, was
the rounding up of 80 bandits by eight
men under Capt. J G. Rhea- It was
planned TO attack the bandits the next
morning when the order was received
for the detachment TO withdraw to the
main column.
LanghOrne Chases Bandits.
During the chase MAJ Langnorne
