ty were greatly shocked last
week by the sudden death of
Mise Emma Strinnmoe, which
occurred at St. Andrews hospi-

cause of death.
Miss Strindmoe was the only
daughter of Mr.. AND Mrs. ST.

here on April 3rd, 1896, and
was thus barely twenty years
old at the time of her death.
Besides her parents she leaves
two brothers, Ben and Sigurd.

Rusted Straw For Feeding.

There has evidently not been
much investigation on the
effect of rust on straw as to it's
feeding value. Most of the
analysis made show that rust
increases the feeding value of
the straw. The Dominion ex-
pertinent Station in Canada
and the experiments in North
Dakota and Minnesota, have
found that the rusted straw has
a larger feeding value than
rust-free straw The analysis
made at the North Dakota ex-
pertinent station one year,
however, showed that the straw
had a decreased feeding value.
The reason for an increased
feeding value is explained by
the fact that the plant first pro-
duces the nourishment in the
stem and leaves and later
passes it up into the head to
ILL out the kernels. The rust
interferes with this food pass
ing up into the head. It has a
little the same effect as cutting
the grain for hay. The value
Of the rusted straw depends on
a good many factors among
which are the time at which
rust strikes the crop, how the
straw is cured and whether it
has any shrivelled grain in It.
Cases have been reported in
which animals have been
harmed by being fed rusted
straw. One way to determine
If it is harmful is to feed it to q

nishes a most rich material. At the
end of each second year, several tons
of this leaf mold are ready for use.
Mixed with garden soil it is splendid
for potting house plants, ferns and
palms and unequalled as dressing
for lawns, rose gardens and shrubbery
borders.
Leaves may be piled in shrub bord-
ers, weighted down with sticks or soil
instead of being placed in pits. In
this way they will form winter pro-
lection as a mulch and after decaying,
a natural fertilizer. Care should be
taken in placing them around young
trees. Diseased leaves should be
sprayed. Spraying the plants at the
right time will prevent disease.
Save your autumn leaves and re-
turn them to the land in the form Of
fertilizer.

16 AUTOMOBILES FREE.
St. Louis Republic Makes Astounding Of
fer to Ambitious Women.

Surprising in liberality any offer of
its kind ever given in this section,
The st. Louis Republic is offering to
young women remarkable oppor-
tunity of winning sixteen luxurious
motor cars without cent of cost.
Other handsome prizes, including
sparkling diamond rings, Victrolas,
etc., are also to be distributed free
among those who respond to the Of
fer.
The glittering array of automobiles
is attracting the eager attention of
thousands upon thousands of people,
and the good news of The Republics
great automobile and prize campaign
is sweeping in every direction.
Autom obiies are something not
everyone can buy. To obtain one
without paying money for it is some
thing that seldom occurs. Its posses
sion means pleasure unalloyed, pleas
ure that only big money can buy-ex-
cept in this campaign. The opportun-
ity is open to women, whether resid-
ing in city or country. Those resid-
ing in the outside districts do not
have to compete with candidates in
Greater st. Louis, as they have an
equal prize list of their own to share
in.
Every woman, married or single,
from sixteen years up, has an equal
chance to become the owner of an
automobile. The ambition to sue
ceed is the principal requisite. AL
lt3ady many aspirants are beginning
i, to participate in the campaign, but
: the long list OF Splendid prizes- pre-
sents an enticing opportunity to many
more.
The st. Louis Republic exercised
much thought and care in selecting
for it's prize automobiles such cars as
the ultimate winners will be proud to
own. Best of all is the ,724 West
colt Six, classy 7-passenger model
The Chandler Six, costing $3.50, is
another free prize. A $1,115 Stude,

worth 81, ,175, and Chalmers, selling
at $1,120, are among the beautiful
awards, besides ten other cars. Every
car is a 1917 model, therefore con-
tanning the improvements and equip
ment that next years automobiles
will have.
The automobiles and other price
can be won by the simple expedien
of gathering votes. Free votes are
published every day in The st. Loui
Republic, while thousands of addition
al votes can be secured by assisting
in extending the circulation of Th

cities and towns are using gas
brought by pipe lines from the larger
cities where it is manufactured. The
utilization of artificial gas for illumi-
mating, however, is decreasing, main
ly because of competition by electricity.
The quantity of artificial gas-oil

of the Interior. This was an increase
of 25 per cent in quantity and II per

next preceding year for which the sta
tistics OF this industry were collected
by the Geological Survey,
The aggregate output of coal gas in
1915 was 12s, ,1O3, $4,000 cubic feet,

gas enriched with oil, or carbureted
water gas, is more generally used ir
cities than coal gas and formed about

In California, Arizona, and Oregon
nearly all the artificial gas is made
from oil and in some other Statei

Prohibition in Seattle.

EDITOR REGIsTER-I saw in the
REGISTER of September IA, 1916, a
letter written by Seattle lady to the
Los Angeles Times and copied by you.
She says "We have all the troubles
that come with the dry law" naming
them as "For Rent signs" Can it be
possible that the majority of the peo-
pie there were engaged in the saloon
business and lost their jobs, and had to
vacate? She further says, "tourists
do not even stop in Seattle, but make
close connection and go by the way
of Vancouver to Alaska, and return
by the way of Canada" Too bad that
they have to hurry through Seattle to
get drink, yet she says "more booze
is sold now then when they had open
saloons" All advocates of the saloon
say the same. Then why do saloon
men fight for saloons, if they ca n sell
more booze in blind pigs without pay
ing license; than by keeping open
saloons and paying a heavy license?
She warns California about voting
dry.
Here are some figures and facts
about California towns. Sixteen years
ago Long Beach was in a quandary
about voting wet or dry. Many said
"Long Beach will die if voted dry
Did she die, not much! Her popula-
tion then was 1000, now after sixteen
wears of dry reign, her population is
$4,000. Fifty per cent are said to be
there because of prohibition. The
city has more money per capita in itt
banks, and larger population thar
five of the liquor beach cities com
bined.
Mayor Fl. Q. Gill of Seattle says
81 have yet to find the first person en-
gagged in legitimate business or owner
of premises, which had been used fol
the sale of liquor, who is not in favor
of the present law" He further adds
81 write this as one ashamed to admit
that I voted "wet" and will not re-
peat my offense."

Missourian, who wants to be showr
by both sides?

Would Keep Tobacco Ads Out Of the
Newspapers.

The claim has been often made that
prohibition eventually willmenace the
freedom of the press. Those who
now aim to prevent the making or
consuming of liquor, dancing, card
playing, smoking, Sunday baseball
and theaters, eventually, it is said,
will attempt to dictate the policy Of
newspapers. This story was printed
in the Jackson, (Miss.) News:
The following is from the current
issue OF the East Mississippi Times,
published at at Starkville:
"The biggest and most profitable
advertisers to the country newspaper
at present are the manufacturers Of
tobacco, cigars and cigarettes. They
are sending out some good cash con-
tracts and the newspapers OF the
state will reap a rich harvest unless O

Autumn Leaves Valuable for Use as
Fertilizer.

Autumn leaves are most valuable
fertilizer and many who seek to OBJ
tain high grade stable manure at top
prices would do well to preserve the
leaves which fall from trees and
shrubs in their yards, H. F. Majors,
Assistant Professor in Landscape
Gardening of the Department of
Horticulture of the University of
Missouri, says. Millions of bushels of
fertilizer which could be produced
from decaying leaves are annually
wasted in Missouri because of
thoughtlessness.
Experiments have proven that the
fertilizer produced is not only valuable
for farm fertilizer but for lawns and
gardens. At the University the leaves
are thrown into pits, soaked down
and slightly mixed with clay or rough
soil. At the end Of season, they
have become decayed forming COM
posted heap of exceptionally valuable
mold. This fertilizer is not only a rich
humus and heterogeneous substance but
is free from weed seeds found in
stable manures.

Artificial Gas in 1915.

The use OF artificial gas as donies-
tic and industrial fuel is increasing.
In households gas is replacing coal for
cooking and to some extent for heat

from by-product coke ovens, is now
used for raising steam and firing open
hearth steelfurnaces. The advantages
of gas as fuel, not the least Of which
are its cleanliness and its ease Of con-
