MISSOURI LIVE STOCK
PRODUCTION DECLINES

An examination of assessment rec
ords in the office of State Auditor
Hackmann shows there were 1852
fewer cattle in Missouri of assessable
age in 1916 than in 1905.
The number of cattle returned in
1905 by the assessors was 2,645, 179.
This number had dwindled to 1885,
587 in 1916, although that year had
shown some increase over the year
previous.
The shortage of hogs is much more
serious. In 1905 the assessors enum-
Grated 2,485,170 head for taxation. In
1916 they found only 1,651,610, The
decrease was 833,560.
Sheep slumped heavily, too, in the
eleven-year period. In 1905 the to-
tai number of sheep of assessable age
in Missouri was 1926. This num-
Der decreased to 536,750 in 1916, or a
loss of 1871 1855.

THE UNITED STATES
TO THE RESCUE

The New York World of April 18th
contains the following article indi-
eating the important part the United
States will play in the rebuilding of
the European cities that have been
devasted by war. William A. Ken
needy, quoted in the article, who form
erly lived in Pennington, is rapidly
coming to be recognized as one Of the
worlds leading financiers:
The important part the United
States will play in rehabilitating war
devastated Europe is indicated by a
contract just closed between the
French Government, through the lead
ing banks of Paris, and Kennedy,
Mitchell & Company of New York
and London, by which the banking
house undertakes to provide for re-
constructing important buildings in
cities in the vicinity of Verdun, the
Argonne and the heights of the
Mouse.
Practically all the material used in
the work will be bought in the United
States.
William A. Kennedy, President of
Kennedy, Mitchell & Co., said yester-
day to World reporter:
"This contract is for 200,000,000
francs. 1t was signed about March
20. We have received important plans
and specifications, together with the
full plans and views Of the commits
sion in charge of this work for the
French Government. The Bank of
France is back of this movement for
building the new France.
"All purchases of supplies and ma
terials to carry out the work in North
ern France will be handled by our i'm
port and export department, under the
charge of Herman Winter. The fnan-
cial plan and details will be in charge
of our banking house. This contract
is the first that has been let for the
betterment of conditions in devas-
tated Europe and, despite its heavy
volume, is mere beginning"
Mr.. Kennedy said the master minds
of France, including engineers, bank
ers and statesmen, are at work on
many great plans of modernization,
which will be put into effect as soon
as the war comes to an end.

COLLEGE FARMERS WILL
ENLIST FOR SERVICE

Owing to the shortage of food and
the scarcity of labor in the present
national crisis students in the College
of Agriculture of the University of
Missouri will be excused to work on
farms, by the action of the faculty of
the college taken Tuesday afternoon,
April 10. The faculty considers that
actual labor in food production is as
important and as much a patriotic
duty as enlistment for military SER
vice. Only those students who have
definite employment in view will be
excused on the same basis as those
who enlist in the army The grade
for work done in the college up to the
time when the student is excused will
be the basis for awarding credit dur
ing his enlistment in food production.
Students will be placed on their
honor that they will work on farms.
In addition, they will be required to
submit statement from employers
that they are to be engaged in farm
work. They must work at least until
July l and submit report of their
employers to obtain credit for Uni
versity work. The College of Agri-
culture has recommended to the Uni
versity faculty that students in other
divisions be excused for farm work
on the same basis as those excused
for military service.
The suggestion that colleges of ag-
riculture excuse students for farm
work was made in Chicago Saturday
at a meeting of the advisory board of
National Agricultural Society, of
which Dean F. B. Mumford is a mem
Der. A committee of five, consisting
of Dean E. Davenport of Illinois,
Pres. H. j. Waters of Kansas Agri-
cultural College, Howard Davidson of
New York, president of the Interna-
tional Live Stock Exposition; E. D.
Funk, farmer of Illinois, and Dean
F. B. Mumford of Missouri, formu-
lated recommendation to be submit
ted to the National Agricultural So
ciety which met Tuesday in Wash
ington. One of the recommendations
pertained to excusing ctudents from
college to work on farms. Dean Num-
ford said last night that the Missouri
college was the first to his knowledge
in the United States to take action on
the recommendation.

M. u. CURATORS MAKE
EMERGENCY WAR PLANS

War plans which provide for stu
dents who enlist in the service of the
United States, for faculty members
end for military training at the Uni
versity of Missouri have been adopt
ed by the board of curators of that
institution upon the recommendation
of the University faculty.
Any University student who en-
lists for national service in connection
with the war will be given credit for
this semester's work and grade
based on the quality of work the stu
dent has done up to the time of his
enlistment.

The demand for meat food at home
can be reduced by raising poultry and
eggs, which will permit beef, pork,
ETC., to be sent TO the army.
Women and children can handle the
poultry work and in this way be of
great help in the production of food,
and while the men are away, the
family can be supplied with food.
Now is the time to prepare for the
years work with poultry. Therefore,
we believe everyone should hatch and
raise as many chickens as possible.
If war continues, they will be needed,
aid if war does not continue, a nice
flock Of chickens is valuable asset
to any home.
Pullets Matched during April and
May will lay during the following win
ter.
Let every poultry raiser boost and
make the poultry production of Mis-
souri, reach $100,000,000 during 1917,
instead of 100000, 900 as in 1916.
Remember we have everything to
gain and nothing to lose by raising
more chickens than ever this wear.
While feed is high it should be fed
carefully for an unbalanced ration is
one way of wasting much feed.
/ A circular, Balancing the Ration
for Egg Production, and one, Feeding
Chicks of All Ages, will be sent free
upon application.
For information on any phase of
the poultry industry, write the Mis-
souri, State Poultry Experiment Sta

FOOD PRODUCED RAP
IDLY WITH POULTRY

More animal food for man can be
produced through poultry than any
other source during the same length
of time.
1t is possible for a hen to produce
eight or ten times her weight in eggs
during one year. 1t is also possible
for the hen to do all that is neces-
sary for her to do to reproduce her
self 200 times each year. This is
possible because of the artificial
means of incubating and brooding the
chicks.
As the hen is the unit of production,
every family can adjust the number of
hens to the size of their yard and the
food supply. Every farm should have
all the hens it is possible for it to
support and every lot should contain
as many hens as the table scraps will
supply with feed.

COURAGE

Courage isn't brilliant dash,
A daring deed in a moments flash;
1t isn't instantaneous thing
Born of despair with a sudden spring
1t isn't creature of fickered hope
Or the final tug at slipping rope.
But it's something deep in the soul of man
That is working always to plan.
Courage isn't the last resort
In the work of life or the game of sport;
1t isn't thing that call
At some future time when he's apt TO fall.
If he hasn't it now, he will have it not
When the strain is great and the pace is hot,
For who would strive for distant goal
Must always have courage within his soul.
Courage isn't dazzling light
That flashes and passes away from sight;
It's slow, unwavering, ingrained trait
That the patience to work and wait.
It's part of a when his skies blue
It's part of him when he has work to do.
The brave man is freed of it,
He has it when there's no need of it.
Courage designed for show
1t isn't thing that come and go,
It's written in victory and defeat
And every trial way meet.
Back of his smiles and behind his tears.
Courage is than daring deed,
It's the breath of life and a strong mans creed

National. Guard To

Whether the prohibition Of the sale
of liquor to, soldiers and sailors in uni
form shall be finally interpreted to ap
ply to the national guard or not, it win
apply here in Hawaii. The guard has
voluntarily agreed to adhere to the
same regulation as that which applies

ing is unnecessary Brigadier- General

the following statement: ~
although there may be some ques
tion as to whether strict interpretar
ton of the new law includes the ma
Uional guard, it is the intention of the
National Guard of Hawaii to live vi
20 the evident intent of the law. The
national guard under the provisions Of

orders from Guard headquarters, forbid
