terminable delay? Even the daily
papers often appear to be rather stale

Negligence

Last Wednesday Linn Clardy was
doing some work with his fine span Of
mules on the Clardy lot next to the
Elmwood Orphan Home. He turned
the mules loose in the lot to go to
dinner, and one of them approached
near the wire fence around the lot and
happened to touch one of the wires
with it's ear. The mule received a
shock that knocked it down and it
was about five minutes before it re-
covered and got up. 1t then touched
its nose to the wire fence and re-
ceived another shock from which it
was about twenty minutes in recov-
ering.
1t seemed that wire from the
Pennington Telephone Company, one
end of which had been detached from
the pole, was thrown across the wire
of the Electric railroad and attached
to the wire fencing, charging the fence
it is estimated with about 500 volts
of electricity. How long the wire has
been in that position is not known,
but it is hard to imagine more care
less trick on the part of the linemen.
If any person or child had happened
to come in contact with the wire fence
the result would have been fatal.
The mule was badly damaged and
Mr.. Clardy intends to institute suit
for damages against both the Tele-
phone and Electric railroad com
panies.

SURE PREVENTIVE OF
HESSIAN FLY PEST
A Practical and FOrceful Demonstra-
ton Made of Value Of Cooper
ative Work in Agriculture

In view Of the almost complete fail
ure of this years wheat crop, which
is largely due to the Hessian fly
blight, the meetings that are now be-
ing held throughout St. Francois
county, among farmers and all others
interested, by Farm Adviser Bert l..
France, is most timely, and should re-
suit in great good being done in
spreading information as to the pro-
per course to pursue to eliminate this
pest in future.
Mr.. France has been exceedingly
fortunate in securing the assistance
Of Prof Thos. J, Talbert, of the State
Agricultural College, and the combined
experience and knowledge Of these two
experts on agricultural matters is re-
sulting in interesting meetings and
much valuable information being i'm
parted to all those who attend the va
rious meetings, the last of which was
held on Wednesday.
While such meetings were often held
at farm homes, this method proved
to be fully as successful as though
they were in school houses or other
public meeting places. While the
meetings were not generally very
largely attended-not nearly so large
as they should have been-the interest
exhibited by those in attendance was
always most encouraging. 1t indi-
Gates that the moro oppressive farm
ers are becoming aroused to the man
ner in which they are being held up,

heartless Hessan fly.
After hearing Prof. Talbert discuss
the manner cf handling this greedy
little outlaw, one is forced to the
conclusion that the manner Of elimi-
mating it is right in time with improv-
ed farming methods, and that while
eliminating the fly, they will, at the
same time have their ground in pro-
per condition for better and more ex-
tensive yields of grain. In other
words, the best possible farming
means the elimination of the Hessian
fly pest, with the single added observ-
ance of the fy-free date for wheat
sowing, which in this locality is Oct.

Splendid Speech
by j. A. Houchin

Hon. Jas. A. Houehin, candidate for
the Democratic gubernatorial nomi-
nation in Missouri, spoke Monday af-
ternoon from the band stand on the
court house square, to a goodly gath
ering of voters, and created most
favorable impression upon all who
heard him. 1t was the first opportuui-
ty many of our citizens had enjoyed
Of seeing or hearing Mr.. Houchin, and
the idea was quite general that while
he was business man of merit, he
was not publica speaker But mis-
talk here Monday created quite a
different impression. He had mes
sage for them, which he delivered in
an impressive and convincing manner,
as though he was thoroughly and ab-
solutely in earnest. He spoke some
what rapidly, but was never at the
slightest loss for a word.
He vehemently denounced the spirit
Of gross extravaganza that has been
constantly creeping into every de-
Dartment of state, and stated that il
he was elected Governor he would put
the paddock on all such desks, and see
that all such useless positions were
stricken from the States payrolls. In
fact, he indicated that what this State
now stood mostly in need Of was a
business man at the head Of affairs,
and that if he were elected there
would not be another of his family on
The States payroll.
He also appeared as a "good roads
crank, and his expressed thoughts in
that regard indicated that he has
splendid ideas in regard to road build
ing. while, at the same time, they are
more or less original. He portrayed
rlan whereby the State could be inter
lined with permanent good roads.
three times across every county in
this commonwealth, without the addi-
ton of cent Of taxes to the taxpayv
ers. His idea was to build good roads
from automobile taxes, which this
year will be sufficient to establish a
sinking fund and keep UP interest on
a $10,000,000 bond issue for that pur-
pose. He thought the present genera
tion were entitled to good roads. and
that their building should not be put
off until the people now living are
dead His speech was full of vim,
vitality and sound business logic, and
made very favorable impression on
his hearers. He left Immediately af-
ter speaking in an automobile for
speaking trip through the Lead Belt.

18th, or as soon thereafter as possible
but not later than Oct. goth.
The essense of Prof. Talbert's talks
to farmers is contained in the follow
ing four lines, which should be COM
mitted to memory, by every farmer,
especially by every wheat sower:
Plow early; plow deep;
Destroy all voluntary wheat;
Sow on the fiy-free date;
And don't fail to cooperate.
Prof. Talbert is not only thorough
ly acquainted with the "family tree,
life and habits of all insect pests, but
he appears to have at least passing
biblical acquaintance, as he frequently
quotes the following, for the origin of
which, we believe, Solomon is held re-
sponsible: "The wise man foreseeth
the evil and hideth himself, but the
foolish pass on and are punished"
He also stands pat on the proposition
that il the suggestions in the above
couplet are adhered to there will be
little or no trouble from the Hessian
fly next year, and that, with the run
Of the seasons, your wheat yield will
be very materially increased,
And now, before closing, just
word in regard to the exceptional
work that is being done by Farm Ad-
wiser Bert L. France, in regard to
improving the farm conditions in st.
Francois county In the first place, he
is one of the busiest men in the coun-
ty, working necessarily, for the good
Of the farmer, and he works in a sys-
tematic manner, 50 as to produce the
greatest ferufns f5s the effort put
forth. The Times deeply regrets to
say that all the farmers in the coun-
ty are evidently not cooperating with
him in his work for their own inter
ests, which is most regrettable. But
with the assistance of those who now
realize the splendid advantage to them
of the work he is doing, the opposi-
ton to his laudable efforts must rap
idly disappear. His salary comes out
of the county salary fund, and is not {
costing anyone an additional cent. AL
so, if there is an official in st. Fran
co.'s county earning his salary, Bert
France is earning his.

A Gospel Parade

A second gospel parade was held
n Pennington Sunday afternoon, as a
Iide-light to the Burke and Hobbs
meetings. About $50 men, members
If the recently organized gospel team
were followed by about as many Sun
lay school children. The parade was
headed by Covers Juvenile Band
starting from the Tabernacle and
marching along eight or ten down
town blocks, back to the Tabernacle
The parade was witnessed by hun
dreds Of people, from all parts of ST.
Francois and adjoining counties, who
were present in great numbers, the
streets being crowded with automo-
biles.
Immediately after the parade, the
afternoon meeting began. There also
was enacted novel feature. Two
prisoners from the county jail, Hull
and Ross, alleged bootleggers, were
present in company of Deputy Sheriff
Doss. Each claimed to have received
an outpouring of the Holy Ghost from
listening to the tabernacle services
from their cells. For time both were
seated on the pulpit, and each gave
testimony Of their conversion, asking
an interest in the prayers of all good
people, and made a most favorable
impression on their hearers by the an
parent straightforwardness of their
confession.
