DRAINING SEEPY HILLSIDES

Seapy spots along hillsides can be
very effectively drained by the use of
small amount of tile, says F. L. Du-
ley, University of Missouri College of
Agriculture. These wet areas always
delay the blowing in the spring and
during wet or even average seasons
are troublesome throughout the great
er part of the year. The yield of cul-
tivated crops over the entire field may
be very materially decreased because
these wet areas prevent cultivation at
the proper time.
Practically all this difficulty can be
avoided by placing a four-inch tile
around the slope just above the spot
where the water comes to the surface.
The wet place is usually caused by a
heavy layer of clay existing at depth
of two to four feet below the soil on
the high land, but which comes to the
surface on the side of the hill. The
water penetrating down to this heavy
layer, not able to penetrate it and
passes sidewise in the line of least re-
sistance coming out on the hill slope.
A line of tile laid across the slope
just down to the top of this heavy lay
err will cut off the water which is
flowing sidewise at this point and pre-
vent its coming out on the hill. There
are thousands of such seepy hillsides
in Missouri, particularly in the north
western part of the State where q
string of tile would be of very great
benefit in this respect.

GOOD NEWS FOR THE
POULTRY RAISERS
OF MISSOURI


The Missouri State Poultry Asso-
citation is being recognized and pro-
poses to again take its place as the
leading State Poultry Association in
the United States, and also to be of
more assistance to the poultry rails
ers of Missouri than ever before in
the history of the organization.
The Missouri State Poultry Asso-
citation was organized in 1892 and
has had an important part in helping
to make Missouri the leading poultry
State in the Union.
The Association is going to conduct
Sales Department for the members
of the Association, which will assist
them in disposing of surplus stock and
eggs. This feature alone should be a
great inducement to every poultry
breeder of Missouri to join the assoc
citation, and this is only one Of the
many things the Association will do
to upbuild our great poultry industry.
A mark has been set for. member
ship of 5000 active members by jan
uary /, 1920. The membership fee is
only 80 cents per year and no one in
Missouri interested in poultry can af-
ford not to belong.
Send in your application and fee to-
day to FRED CROSBY, Secy- Treas,

COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES

Prin. Aubrey J. Knight of the
Mitchell school has greatly stimulated
interest in language work by letting
his pupils write letters to the County
Superintendent. This idea is COM
mendable. Letter writing is certainly
practical exercise. Again, pupils
automatically receive a stimulus to
the maximum of care and ability
when they know that their work is to
be judged by parties not directly con-
nected with the school. The letters
written by Mr.. Knights pupils are
exceptionally good. The County Su-
perintendent will welcome letters
from the language classes of all
schools.
Miss Judith McNew Of the Cedar
Falls school writes that she and her
pupils are raising money for the pur-
chase of a flag. A good start is re-
ported to have been made and no doubt
"Old Glory" will soon wave in beauty
and majesty from suitable staff in
front of the school.
The following extract from a letter
written by the County Superintend-
ent to Miss Malissie Atkins will doubt
less be of considerable interest to ru-
raj teachers: "The ruling in cases
where a school has been closed due
to the epidemic of influenza as relates
to the issuing of monthly attendance
certificates may seem peculiar to you.
1t is rather hard to make a clear
statement of said ruling. However,
attempt it in these words: l have
decided that the twenty consecutive
day ruling in such cases should hold
to this extent. Only pupils who have
actually attended for twenty consec-
utive days, or who would have attend
ed for twenty consecutive days had
school been in session, are entitled to
monthly certificates of attendance.
For example, school may have opened
and have been in session five days; at
the end of that time the doors may
have been closed for the rest of the
month, i. e., the other fifteen days. A
pupil who had attended on the five
days in which the school was in ses-
sion would be entitled to certificate
of perfect attendance"
Supt. Matilda Schafer of the Doe
Run schools writes that the Doe Run
High School has been retained by the
State Superintendent on the list of
approved High Schools of the second
class.
Miss Elva Martin of Elvins has
been elected to the vacancy at the
Mitchell school caused by the resig-
nation of Miss Rena Sutton. Miss
Martin has taught in the Flat River
schools and will doubtless prove an
able successor to Miss Sutton.
Mrs. Made Waters of Elvins has
succeeded to the vacancy at the Fair
view school occasioned by the resigna-
ton of Miss Mauda Jansen. Mrs. Wa
ters has had two years of experience
as a rural teacher and the Fairview
people are to be congratulated on Sc
curing her services.

THE
ASSOCIATED
DOCTORS
Specialists
Will Be At
St. Francois Hotel
Friday, Feb. II
FOR ONB DAY ONLY
Wonderful Results-Marvelous Dem
onstration in Chronic Disease
Cases by Their New Sys-
TEN Treatment.

Word has just been received that
the Associated Doctors, specialists,
licensed by the State of Missouri, and
who have met with such phenomenal
success throughout the entire. South
east, will be in Pennington on Fri
day, February 81, for one day only,
to demonstrate their new system of
treatment of chronic disease cases.
This will indeed be good news to
those who find it convenient to visit
the central laboratories in Birming-
ham, located at Suite 311-12 Lyric
Theater Building, where the organiza-
ton has Southern headquarters. These
regular, reputable physicians believe
that the combined skill of several
trained specialists in chronic disease
cases can accomplish more than one
doctor alone-in other words, in unity
there is strength.
The offer to treat all who call on
on this visit absolutely free, is their
original method of getting their sys-
TEN of treatment before the public
quicker, and no one, rich or poor, white
or colored, should neglect to take ad-
vantage of their very liberal offer
ABSOLUTELY FREE (medicine ex-
cepted.) No cutting-No knife.
1t makes no difference how many
doctors you have consulted or how
many patent medicines you have talk
en-, you cannot afford to miss this OPP
portunity of ascertaining your ex-
act condition and be honestly advised.
You have only yourself to blame if
you continue to suffer from Piles,
Kidney and Bladder troubles, Dis
charges, Bed Wetting, Blood Poison,
Skin Eruptions, Rheumatism, Epilep-
sy, Uric Acid Poisoning, Paralysis,
Nervous Troubles and Debility, Neu-
ralgia, Stomach and Liver Troubles,
Catarrh, Asthma, Bronchitis, Pleurisy,
Tumors, Indigestion, Constipation,
Gall Stones, Ovarian and Female
Troubles, Enlarged glands or any re-
flex condition of the nervous system,
and those diseases about which most
people dislike to consult the general
practitioner.
Bear in mind that this will likely
be the last visit when the specialists
extend their services FREE.
Hundreds have been restored to
their perfect good health, with rosy
cheeks and sparkling eyes-so may
you. The specialists are too well
known throughout the State to re-
quire further mention.
Married women should be accom-
panied by their husbands and children
by their parents.
Remember the hotel, day and date
one day only.

100000 LIVES LOST IN THE
WAR, BAKER ESTIMATES

Boston, Mass, Feb. 8.-Nine million
lives lost, two hundred billion dollars
worth of property destroyed and an
outlay of 1897 900, 100000 were the
stupendous statistics of the war for
all nations engaged, Secretary of War
Baker stated this afternoon. The
compilation, he said, was made by the
general staff.
Secretary Baker was speaking to a
gathering of Boston business men and
their friends. He urged the forma-
ton Of a league of nations to prevent
"another holocaust like this"
The total number of lives lost in
battle was placed at 100000, he said,
but this did not take into considera-
ton the thousands who died in prison
and army camps.

FARM BUREAU SECURES CAR
LOAD OF MILL FEED

The Executive Committee of the
Farm Bureau has materially helped
out the feed situation around Farm
ington by ordering a mixed car of
bran, mixed feed and shorts. 1t was
the concensus of opinion of the Com
mittee that there has been too wide
a margin between the prevailing pric-
es on mill feeds in the local market
and the St. Louis market.
r The feed was secured from a st.
Louis commission firm and handled
through local merchant After al
lowing the merchant commission
for handling, the feed was retailed as
follows:
Bran, $3.50 per cwt.; mixed feed at
$2.65 per cwt.. and shorts at $685. per
cwt. These prices range from ten to
fifty cents lower on the hundred than
local prices at the time the Farm Blu
reau secured their car.
With butter fat and eggs on a ver-
table landslide to rock bottom and
mill feeds skyrocketing the other way,
where is the farmer to hedge to save
himself?

PREDICTS READY SALE
FOR FARM PRODUCTS

That farm products in 1919 is not
likely to exceed the worlds demands,
is forecast by the u. S. Department of
demands are to be met by the farm
ers of the United States is a question.
Over production along any line is not
desirable, nor profitable, so the de-
partment is urging program more
or less conservative. Large paintings
for big production cannot be profita-
bic now that farming is about to be
restored to a pcacc-time basis. The
farmer must return to his crop rota-
tons, and his productions of live stock
balancing all farming operations
around them, much as he did before
the war, if he is to keep his business
on firm basis.
A detailed survey of the agricul-
tural situation has been made, and
the department concludes that a wise
live stock program will involve main
tanning the number of horses and
mules without material increase, a
normal increase IN the number of da-
Try cows and dairy products, a normal
increase in the number of beef cattle;
a conservative policy with respect to
increasing number of swine until the
relative shortage and high price of
feed are overcome; an increase in the
number of sheep consistent with ia
cilities for feeding and pasturage and
farmers knowledge of sheep husband
ry and skill in handling them, and
with adequate protection from dogs
and an increase in farm fiocks of poul-
try where minimum of purchased
feed is required.
The signing Of the armistce at the
close of 1918 found the United States
with relatively large supply Of food
crops and relatively short supply of
feed crops. A live stock program in
volving any increase in the number of
animals necessarily involves an in
crease in the production of feed crops.
1t appears desirable to increase the
production of hay by about one-fourth.
An average acreage of potatoes is
needed. Farmers will be justified in
maintaining their acreages of barley
oats and corn, for an ample production
is necessary to maintain normal live
stock production. Home gardeners
should plan to meet the needs of the
family rather than to produce crops
for sal on the market.
The Extension service of the Col
lege of Agriculture is ready to help
anyone reorganize his farm business
on sound basis in keeping with the
1919 prospects.
