THE CHOICE OF MISSOURI
DEMOCRACY.

Developments during the clos
ing DAYS of the primary campaign
have made it very evident that the
race for the Democratic nomina
ton for Governor has resolved In
to a contest between two men, Cor
.nelius Roach and Fred D. Gardner,
and with the race clearly between
these two gentlemen. it will not be
hard for the voters of this section
of the state to make a choice OF a
candidate.
Cornelius Roach stands for rural
Missouri and in so doing he stands
for his home section, Southwest
Missouri. He stands for honesty.
efficiency and economy III the ad-
ministraticn Of the business OF the
state. His experience as school
man gives him a broad and sympa-
thetic understanding of the needs
of the schools of Missouri, and he
is an ardent enthusiast for good
roads. Behind him stands his rec
ord as citizen school man, a
state official and courteous,
broad minded gentleman. the typl-
cal. MisSourian and the Kind OF
man that every citizen of the state
knows in his heart ought to occupy
the Governor $ chair Then. too,
he can carry the full vote of his
party in the state. as was demon
strated when in 1905 he led his
ticket and in 1912 he was second
on the ticket only to its head.
He will again lead the state
ticket this year.

tested 81 to 81 pounds per bush
ell and graded number one. He
received from $1.21 to $1.23 per
busheI for it delivered at the mill.
The yield was about twenty bush
els per acre which makes him
about $25.00 per acre for his
wheat.
The wheat was raised on black
limestone land and under very
unfavorable conditions. On ac-
count of the excessive rainfall last
year it was practically impossible
to prepare a good seed bed and
the severe winter was very hard
on the wheat. y
Mr.. Doane attributes his success
in raising wheat to the way he has
bred up his seed. Last year out
Of more than~two hundred bushels
of good wheat he was only able
to get about forty bushels Of good
seed. This he did by running it
through hand cleaner and what
was left of the wheat after secur-
ing his seed he sold at the market
price. The forty bushels of uni
formly good wheat he used for his
seed with the above results. Mr..
Doane has been breeding up his
wheat for several years and by fol-
lowing the practice Of sowing
nothing but the best seed and with
a favorable season he should raise
from 80 to 40 bushels per acre
next year. A number of his
neighbors have been breeding up
their seed wheat also with very
satisfactory results. In fact they
have taken several premiums at
the county fair.
