others. Initiative is a precious
thing, but if it can only be pre-
served by the continuation of ex-
ploitation, we might consent to
temporary restrictions and hang
a few of the initiators. However
we beg to assure our friend, the
Senator, that an ancient dread
is without foundation in fact.
Any liberties surrendered will be
speedily restored, any "land-
marks" toppled over will be re-
erected when the need has pass
ed. The people will see to that.
The farmer, who sells his wheat
at 80 cents a bushel in the fall
and sees it resold for SO before
spring has no worse enemy than
the food Spectator and is smart
enough to know it. In other
words, this is no time for quib-
bling. Criticism of friends is an
ungracious task, but life having
been conscripted without re-
gard to violation of precedent,
there must be no scruple as to
property. The coon trap ar
rangement whereby the produc-
er is robbed at one end and the
consumer at the other must be
destroyed if we are to wage a
successful war. Fix a minimum
price on grain insuring the far
mer that his labor will not go
for nothing and middlemen take
over the profit and then protect
the consumer with a maximum
price beyond which spectators
cannot go.-Paris Mercury.

MiIl Helm Find Seed Corn.

Extremely unfavorable wealth
err following the early corn plant
ing in Central and South Mis-
souri, has caused the loss of a
large part of the crop. Seed has
rotted in the ground and in many
sections the entire crop must be
replanted. Consequently there is
a great seed demand for the sec
ond planting.
But seed corn is now scarce.
In fact, the supply of high grade
seed was practically exhausted
for the first planting. Farmers
who make a second planting will
not only have to use a lower
grade of seed but they may have
difficulty in finding seed corn Of
any kind, for at this time there
are only a few places in Mis-
souri, where seed corn still can
be bought.
The department of farm crops
of the Missouri College of Ag-
riculture is in constant touch
with the sources Of seed corn in
Missouri and is ready to advise
farmers where seed may be Sc
cured. Seed corn of the following
varieties is available in Nilsson
ri; Boone County White, st.
Yellow, Iowa Silvermine,
Pride of the North, Bloody
Butcher. This seed, although
not highly graded and selected
as seed sold earlier in the sea-
son, is sound and vital and will
give fairly satisfactory results.
A letter or post card to the
Missouri College of Agriculture,
Columbia, Mo-, will receive an
immediate reply, telling where
and at what price seed corn may
be secured.

Senator Stone, who favored the
draft, asks cautiously if 1--WE"
(the Senate) can '1egitimately''
enact a law governing the price
and distribution of the food
stores now held and likely to be
held by middlemen throughout
the country. Senator Reed in
turn urges regard for "the capt.
tai invested" grows suddenly
fearful that individual "initia-
tive" may be discouraged, and
INDUCES unnecessary fears about
western farmers. We generally
forbear criticism based on news
paper reports alone, but the at
titude of both men is so entirely
different from that this paper,
along with other friends thro'-
out the state, had expected of
them that Withholding comment
is difficult. Senator Stone
should cast aside any doubts he
may have and get hold of the
fact quick that this is no time for
the fetch of legal forms, but an
extraordinary emergency de-
handing extraordinary measur-
es. The average man, and he is
in a vast majority, doesn't care
a tinker's damn whether the
measure is legitimate or illegiti-
mate, constitutional or unconsti-
t%utional, Just so it is enacted.
People facing exploitation and
possible privation are not con-
cerned about constitutional bar
rlerS. In emergencies they do
want a government quickly re-
sponsive to the public need. AS
to Senator Reed, it is the first
time we recall that property"
ever held a place in his regard
when it came into conflict with
considerations purely human in
nature. Money invested to ex-
tort excessive profits from cold
and hungry people is outlaw
money and deserves neither pro-
lection nor respect from COVER
ing authority. It's control will
hardly discourage Initiative"
unless it be the initiative that
grows out of piratical instincts
and the parasitical determine
ton to fatten on the misery of
