HEADQUARTERS AT AURORA
j. II. Note Will Conduct Agricultural
Extension Work.

Aurora. Mo, has been selected by
the agricultural extension service as
field headquarters for ]. II. Mote, who
was appointed in July as district
agent in Southwest Missouri. From
this city Mr. Mote will carry on work
in Newton. Mcdonald. Lawrence. Bar
ry. Christian. Stone, and Taney coun-
ties. His relation to these counties
will be very similar to the relation
which a county agricultural agent
holds to the single county, which he
operates.
Mr. Mote will give his attention
mainly to the organization of farmers
and farm boys and girls into clubs. so
that he can work with groups of peo-
pie just as an instructor on the cam
pus works with a class Because of
the large area included in his terri
tory, Mr.. Mote will not be able to
give the individual service that con-
ty agent does. Mr. Notes salary is
paid entirely by the state University.
AT the Carthage Fair, August 20, 30
and 81. Mr. Mote will consult with far
mers in the rest tent furnished by the
Joplin Globe. He will also have
charge of a demonstration school at
an agricultural fair to be held at Au-
rora. October 10. II and II

4 Reply to taxpayer"

Editor the MisSourian: Is it true
that the money spent by the city. and
paid by the Taxpayer" should be for
absolute necessity. The money spent
for the fire-department and police is
an investment, the same as any other
money spent. and the return is great
er than on the ordinary investment.
We want efficient men in office and to
get this caliber of man. it is necessary
to spend money 1t is very probable
that the ciyt could have had a cheaper
fire chief. but the question is, would
the department have been the efficient
up-to-date department that we now
have?
The fire chief says he must have a
mashine with which to do his work
The machine bought by the city. and
stored near the city hall is useless TO
the chief. He is not allowed to take
it on his inspection tours, and if taken
to a fire along with the fire truck. he
would break the rules passed by the
council, and not be allowed to take his
'joy-ride" to the entertaining fire.
The chief does not object TO the use
of his "own feet and legs" and will
willingly make the tour of the city on
inspection by this method. But he is
supposed to be present at all fires.
and if he is in the north part of the
city. and fire breaks in the south
part. he would have to be a walking

would be there in time to see the

The motorcycle is practicable on
the paved streets, but there are streets
in Columbia that are not paved-and
plenty of them In the mud. this ma
chine can neither pull. nor be ridden
with any speed. and the chief would
be afoot again The chief is willing
to go on his motorcycle. if the TaX-
payer IS willing to wait for the fire

poorest soil contains the most acid
and why?
Are you keeping your soil as fer.
tile as it ever was? If you are not
do you not think that you may be
farming wrong?
Ii you have made good money on
your farm, but in so doing you have
destroyed the fertility of the land, dc
you not think that you may have
made a good deal of failure after all
at the game?
Does Your Soil Wash Badly.
If you are not keeping up your soil
fertility. can it be that you do not
know how?
Does your soil wash badly? If so,
do you know the most up to date
methods of preventing it the best?
Do you know the supplementary
crops that will add to your corn
yield, and build your soil at the same
time, at comparatively no first cost
TO you?
Most any one can make living on
a fertile farm, with plenty of money
or credit to rightly equip it, but it
takes a man with good brain and mus
Gle and energy to use both to make
good on a worn out farm. Then do
you not think that the man on a
worn out farm would use good judg-
ment in finding out all he can and
get all the information that you or
any one may have for him?
Suppose you went in debt s25 an
acre for your farm % years ago and
paid off the debt in 25 years-you did
better than the average. did you not?
That same farm now should bring at
least 800 an acre If you paid IA
down on your 100 you had to have
1000 in cash.

WHO REPRESENT Us!

Ofhand can you tell what was The
occupation of your congressman oil
state representative before he became
a member of one or other of the as.

charts the previous occupations OF
members of Congress in comparison
with the occupations of the general
voting public. The chart shows that

people to represent them. Nearly
sixty per cent of our congressman are
elected from a profession numbering
100000 Thus. about three -ffths Of
the members of Congress are chosen
from a group comprising less than
one-half of one per cent of the gain

per cent are bankers; and fifteen per
cent are of other occupations

that the Socialists would choose a
working man. but the one Socialist
in Congress is lawyer"
