A MissoNs~i Steer. s-

The state of Missouri last week
sold a vearling steer at the National
Stock Yards, East St. Louis, for
$3.50 per hundred, the highest
price ever paid on the market AS
the sAnimal weighed $40 pounds,
Missouri is now $258.50 richer.
The steer belonged to the white
faced Hereford variety and spent
his short life at the Missouri State
University one of a small herd kept
at that institution for demonstra-
ton purposes in the agricultural
department An accurate account
is kept of each animals feed, the
effect that certain fattenine foods
have upon them and other data
concerning their development.
General Manager Robert E. Con.
way of Armour & Co.'S. East Side
industries says that at the price
paid for this beef the retail dealer
who disposes of him must charge
$225 a pound for porterheuse
steaks. If this price seems too
high. a rib roast portion may he
had at $3.50 a pound.
More economical marketers can
Get sirloin steak for ST IS a pound
or shoulder steak for ST a pound
The next lowest price that can be
quoted by the retailer is rs cents a
pound for the portion usually made
into corn beef.

PartAof the World

Affairs in remote parts of the
world no longer are matter of in
difference TO our people. From a
shot fred in distant Sarajevo. in the
Balkans, a town few of us ever
heard of, the whole world was up
set. A company of boys had to
offer their lives from every school
district to stop the fighting.
The world is very closely drawn
together now. We are no longer
separated by the old isolations ere
ated by distance aud lack of trans
portation IL is easier to get to
Paris today than il was for our
great grandfathers to travel a few
hundreds of miles 10 our own coun-
try. The prosperity of our farms
and our factories depends on wheth
er we can develop harmonious
trade and political relations with
foreign peoples.
Previous to this war the newspa
pers printed only few brief para.
agraphs about the dOiHgs of Europe
Most people did not even read those
few paragraphs. When the wal
come on, the great majority oil
Americans had 40 conception VIVA,
it was about.
AS consequence of public igno.
rance Of world affairs, we had nc
military preparation This greatly
prolonged and increased the cost
of the war.
We are a part OF the great wide
world. The doings in Russia and
the stormy Balkans effect US and
might again drug us into war. We
must follow these affai.s of the
I
wide world more closely, and see
how intimately they affect our own
welfare The schools need to teach
the children more about the history
of the world. and particularly &c
Instruct them as to the significance
of this war.
| So when the newspaper prints {
story about the doines of people;
5000 miles away, do not cast il
away in disgust, thinking 1t does
not affect you at all Il comes {
great deal nearer TO your life thar
lyou may think

None Hit the Kaiser

1t is reported that approximately
$500 tons of shells were fired into
the German lines in a period OF
nine hours. by the American artil.
lery, when General Pershine's troops
Resumed their offensive on Novem.
Der LIST According to artillery ex.
perts the bombardment by the
American guns consumed 20 train
loads of ammunition. thirty cars to
the train. No wonder the Kaiser
managed to think Of the word
enough" That much shot and
shell would have q tendency to con-
vince any one that there was some
fighting, There never was, in the
history Of all the world, a battle
when there was so much shot and
shell thrown into the ranks of an
enemy.

Reducing Time

During the past three years the
working week has been reduced in
many industries. The eight hour
day has become the rule in many
shops. 1t is quite possible that
this is permanent change. But
some people are not wholly salts
fed yet. At conventions of GER
tain trade recently held, demands
were presented for a seven or even
a six honr day. Also the demand
for Saturday afternoon off is becom.
ing more general
The people who are getting re-
duced hours of labor need to re-
member the argument that has al
ways been advanced for this change.
1t is that man will be so much
fresher and more energetic when he
works short day. that actually he
can accomplish quite as much or
possibly more than when he was
working the longer time.
If production should fall off as
the result of the shorter day, the in.
evita6le result will be to raise the
prices OF everything without any
corresponding rise in wages Many
people think this is just what has
happened already.
A man with much experience as
an employer of labor said the other
day that he had no question that
the average manual worker could
do as much work in IS hours a
week as he could in 60. He ad-
mitted that the ten hour day is a
long one, and tends to exhaust the
mechanic so he does not toll with
any energy or enthusiasm. But he
felt that to get las much work in
the eight hour period. the workers
must set themselves TO their task
with some spirit and determination.
to turn out a reasonable product.
He feared they might not do this.
II the eight hour worker merely
proceeds along the same old dull
pace as before, and this condition
exists in all the trades. prices will
be greatly increased without any
corresponding increase of wages
There is still great deal OF hard
work to be done TO provide ourselves
with all the comforts modern life
demands.

Advertising the Town

1t is the ambition of every town
nowadays TO draw in trade from
the surrounding country. Growth
in retail trade that comes from the
home town alone, does not usually
satisfy the ambition of live bust
ness center. To attain its ambitions,
il must draw in trade from the sur.
rounding country
That trade comes easier than it
used to- 10 these days of auto.
mobiles il can he drawn a very con-
siderable distance. People will
pass by the old fashioned Cross roads
store 10 in u remote corner, to come
into a good live center And they
will pass by such a center, and 60
a considerable distance farther, if
they are convinced that they have
found a better center
Thus they 60 70 the town within
driving distance that gives the best
impression as live place. While
the general appearance of a town
goes a good way toward creating
that impression, the most expedi-
tiOus way Of producing it is by a lot
of live advertising in the home
newspaper.
You never fad a newspaper filled
with advertising in a dead town.
On the contrary, when the bulk of
the stores advertises well, the town
looks alive.
The Democrat circulates widely
among the people living in the out
skirts of Monroe City. II REACHES
many people who naturally would
trade in communities still near their
homes than we are. But the ad-
vertisements printed in our columns
lead many of them to come ia here.
If all our merchants would take
part in this advertising campaign,
they would not merely advertise
their own business. but they would
advertise their home town as a live
one Then they would get their
share of those who are drawn in by
the general appearance of enterprise
that an advertising town always
gives.
