whole campaign produced such
an effect in Ohio, though here it
passed almost %unnoticed.
The last Republican chance
was with the business men, but
the business men of Ohio were
lukewarm to Republican appeals.
1t was the general report from
Ohio that business men there
would not get interested in poll
tics, and all the Republican at
tempts to inflame them fell on
unresponsive ears. The Repub-
lican literature" went begging,
and the county organizations
could not be spurred into inteT-
esting themselves in mass meet
ings, even when speakers with
naional regulations" were
promised.
1t was prosperity that brought
about Ohio's astounding rever-
sal; the prosperity of the farm
ers, manufacturers and laborers,
with the Adamson bill as a
clincher for the last named. The
posperity of the farmer and the
fear of war made him vote for
Wilson, while the prosperity of
the Republican business men
disinclined him toward politics,
and especially toward "a
change" however he might me-
chanically keep up his party
regularity. Two years before
Ohio had elected Governor viii

The Overturn in Ohio.

The 0verturn in Ohio.
Ohio was the political marvel
of the presidential election. Sur
rounded by States that voted
for Hughes, she voted for Will
son. While states the Republis
cans had considered doubtful in
previous elections went for
Hughes, Ohio, which in pre-
vious elections had seldom been
considered doubtful, went Demo-
cratic. Now the plurality has
been officially announced, and
the marvel increases. For Ohio
not only went for Wilson, but
gave him a larger vote than she
had ever given any Presidential
candidate, even Theodore Roose-
welt in 1904, who got 600, O95.
Mr.. Wilson this year got GOA,
946. His plurality was 90,110.
Why should Ohio be a Democrat
island in the stretch of States
from the Atlantic to the Miss
issippi?
When the labor vote is men,
toned it is objected that there
is a labor vote in Illinois and In
diana, too. However, that is a
superficial objection. Because
of Ohio's peculiar position geo.
graphically, the railroad vote
there is relatively, if not ac-
tually. larger than in many
other States. 1t is fact that
does not admit of any doubt, be-
cause it is too well and too var
iously attested, that the Adam
son law cut a bigger figure in
Ohio than almost anywhere else
far more than in Connecticut
where it was expected to be SC
important that the Republican
leaders had goosehesh over it.

LAND BANK AMENDMENT
Vote in St. Louis Defeated 1t
Along With Prohibition,

AOIIAlb NObG VII bAC 0fANAANA
land bank constitutional fnan-
cling amendment, made by A. T.
Edmonston, Secretary Of the
State Land Bank Committee,
reveals, excluding the vote cast
in st. Louis for and against the
proposition, that it carried the
State by 3,144 votes. Sixty
four counties voted for the meas
ure and fifty against. The fig
ures include st. Louis County
which voted heavily negatively
for practically no reason save
that Republican voters prevail
there and G. O. P. candidates
fought the amendment bitterly
for fear it would bring too much
popularity and votes for it's
author, Frederick D. Gardner,
Governor-elect of Missouri.
I The total Missouri vote on the
Land Bank Constitutional
amendment, including the City
Of st. Louis, was 296 1854 for
and 346,443 against. St. Louis
City voted 47,431 for and 100,-
O54 against, the opposition there
probably chiefly being due to the
ignorance of the voters, who, in
their anxiety to defeat state
wide prohibition, voted negative
ly on the three amendments be-
fore the electors, to scratch the
one they were after.
Omitting St. Louis City, the
ia counties of the state, in
Guiding Kansas City, st. Joseph,
Springfield, Joplin and other
smaller cities, the vote was 249,-
533 for the amendment and
246,389 against. For twenty
counties which voted negative

other way would have carried
them for the proposition. Three
ffths of the counties south of
the Missouri river favored the
Gardner Land Bank Act, and in
north Missouri, where more
prosperity prevails owing to a
denser population and better
development of the agricultural
area and where a rural credit
system is not so badly needed

sidered Indifferent to the amend
ment went heavily for it. All

SELECT SEED CORN NOW

One of the most profitable things
farmers club can do at this time of
the year, according to w. H. Baker
OF the College of Agriculture of the
University of Missouri, is to provide
supply of reliable seed corn for next
years planting. Most of the supply
may usually be secured by intelligent
field selection from the best fields in
the community before the time of the
early freezes, says Mr.. Baker. As
soon as selected the corn should be
stored in racks in such way as to
secure rapid and thorough drying.
Experimental work along this line
shows that the yield of corn may be
increased 5 to 10 per cent by early
field selection and careful storage of
the seed as compared with the ordi-
nary method of crib selection in the
spring. Twenty-Five corn growers
constituting a farmers club in any
good corn section of Missouri may
easily raise fifty thousand bushel
corn crop under average conditions.
A five per cent increase of this crop
would be worth at least fifteen hun
bred dollars or sixty dollars per man.
The extra labor required for early
field selection and proper storage
would not exceed two days per man.
"Why not have seed-corn day de-
voted to the field selection, and care
full storage of next years seed corn?"
asks Mr.. Baker. Everyone who
knows how should help. The boys
could be taught the art of field selec-
ton and methods of storage and have
the Importance of good seed impress
ed upon their minds, The College of
Agriculture will send instructions for
field selection and storage of seed
corn upon request.
