PRESIDENT SAYS
HE IS GRATEFUL
Reception in Columbia ALI He Gould
Wish.-Perfect Order Kept.

The State.
President Wilson, talking in his pri-
vate car to two members of The
States staff, just before his departure,
said that he had been touched and
gratifed by the spirit in which the
people of his old home had received
him. He had been pleased also, he
said, but not surprised, at the sense
the people showed concerning the
proprieties of the occasion All the
arrangements. the president said, were
considerate and judicious, and the
services were simple and informal, as
he would have them. He asked that his
thanks be borne to those OF his friends
and "old home folks whom press OF
circumstances prevented him from
personally receiving.
All Carefully Planned
Advance dispositions were made by
Joseph Hyde Pratt of Chapel Hill, N.
c., a friend of George Howe, in CO.
operation with two Columbians con-
nected with the family. These were
reviewed and approved by Henry e.
Thomas, a secret service operative,
who arrived via the Southern railway
Yesterday morning at 9 o'clock. Mr..
Thomas, in company with j. wv Nc
Cormick, the undertaken; ]. W. Rich
ardson, chief of police, and the two
local committeeman, inspected the
station, the route and the churchyard'
checked over the arrangements in de-
tail and found all satisfactory. One
of the local committeeman al Mr..
Thomas request wrote in triplicate
memorandum of these plans. Copies
weer delivered to the secret service
men aboard the presidents train the
moment they arrived.
Commanding the secret service
squad in charge of the presidential
special was Joseph Murphy, chief OF
the White House staff. His assistants
were Dick Jervais, Edward Startling,
Jack slye and Miles McHaill. They
were joined at the station by Mr..
Thomas. A telegram which caught
Mr.. Thomas at Charlotte Sunday
evening directed him to proceed to-
Columbia and look over the ground.
He came on the first train available.
]. w. Richardson, chief of police,
was complimented by the secret SER
vice operatives upon the organization
and behavior of his force. Men in uni
form were kept in the background as
much as possible, in view of the ma
ture of the occasion, but enough pa
trolmen were posted at strategic
points 10 control any probable check
of misconduct. There was no disor-
der, nobody disobeyed orders and not
one arrest was required.

Top Dressing Of Wheat Land

Every year sees greater number ol
Missouri farmers using manure as a
top dressing on wheat. There is con-
siderable evidence to show where
wheat is grown in a rotation, manure
can very often be applied 20 better ad
vantage as a top dressing on this crop
than as an application before corn.
There are two principal advantages OF
this practice. The first one is that it
greatly stimulates the growth Of the
wheat and helps to prevent winter
killing with a resulting increase in
yield. The second Cne is that since
clover and grass are usually sown with
the wheat and since manure aids very
greatly in securing stand OF these
crops when used as top dressing with
he wheat, this alone may be sufficient
reason for its application. AS a mat
ter Of fact the top dressing OF wheat
with manure almost insures a stand Of
clover or grass on land is at all suited
to these crops. The land may be too
sour or too wet to grow clover. Much
land in Missouri is too sour. II it is
only slightly sour, the manure greatly
aids in getting clover stand. II it is
very sour, lime is usually essential in
addition. IN. +. Miller, Missouri

Rotation VS. Manure For Corn

In one Of the experiments at the
Missouri Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton corn has been grown for twenty
five years on the same plot Of ground
with an application Of manure averag-
ing about seven tons annually. In
comparison with this, corn has been
grown in various rotations without ma
nure. A summary Of the yields for
the last six years on these plots shows
that the average yield Of corn on the
rotated plots shows that the average
yield Of corn which has been grown
continuously with Manure. In other
words rotation has been somewhat
better than heavy manuring in this ex
pertinent. The last six years Of the
quarter century have been chosen for
comparison since one Of the rotations
is a Six.year rotation and since this
number Of years is sufficient to largely
overcome seasonal variations.
1t should not be understood from
these results that rotation is sufficient
to maintain the yield Of corn. As a
matter Of fact there are other plots in
in this same experiment which have
been both rotated and manured. The
average yield soi these plots is very
materially above rotation alone. The
important points are, that rotation is
more important than fairly heavy ma
nuring in the long run, but that is not
all.sufIicient; that in order 10 maintain
land in prOductiveness economically,
it should be both rotated and manured,
while in many cases commercial iertil-
izing materials applied in addition TO
the manure will give still further re
turn. M. f. Miller, Missouri College

 Over 30 delegates from all over the state were present
 An appetiZing dinner was served by the ladies of the church. The church was prettily decorated with ferns and autumn leaves.
 Built in 1s43.
 This church was built in 1S43; in its early history it was known as the Burnham Baptist church of Towards s Valley. It has been known in later years as the Christian church. Its last regular pastor was Rev. R. J. Nichols, but for the last twenty years the church has been occupied irregu- larly by other denominations.
 It came into the Baptists' notice and they placed Rev. Frank Nye on the field Dec. 5. 1915. The church voted in August 1916 to join the State Bap- tist Association and turn its fund over to it for the benefit of the church.
 Praise is due Rev. Frank Nye for his earnest labors on the field and zeal in upbuilding the parish and also to Deacon William Anthony who thought his long membership has ever been faithful to it's interests.

HOW TO REDUCE
 YOUR WEIGHT

A SIMPLE. SAFE, RELIABLE WAY.
 People who are overburdened with suprerfiuous fat know only too well the discomfort and ridicule that overstout people have to bear.
 If you are carrying around five or ten pounds of unhealthy fat you are unnecessarily weakening your vital or gans and are carrying a burden which destroys the beauty of your figure.
 There IS no need of anyone suffering from superfiuous fat. If you want to reduce your weight in simple, safe and reliable way. without starvation diet or tiresome exercise, here is a test worth trying. Spend as much time as you can in the open air, breathe deeply and get from any good druggist box of oil of korein capsules; take one after each meal and one before re- tir-ing at night.
 Weigh yourself once a week, so as to know just how fast you are losing weight, and don't leave off the treat ment or even skip single dose until you are down to normal.
 Oil of korein is absolutely harmless, Is pleasant to take, and helps diges- ton. Even a few days treatment has been reported to show a noticeable re- ductfon in weight, footsteps become lighter, your work seems easier and a lighter and more buoyant feeling takes possession of your whole being.
 Every person who suffers from su- perfiuous fat should give this treat ment trial. Lee & osgood can supply you.
