gold, silver and tungsten, and that the
state leads all other states in guam
tity and worth of its annual produc-
tion of both lead and zinc, not to men
tion such other metallic substances as
nickle and cobalt, barytes, tripoli and
that it also ranks high in its extensive
soft coal and iron deposits.
The copper ore deposits are known
to exist in Franklin, Ste. Genevieve
Madison. Jefferson, st. Francois and
one of the other counties of the
northeastern portion of the Ozark
regions.
The 1918 output of copper ore, Mis-
souri,, totaled SIS, ,2O4 pounds; that OF
1914, only $3.50 pounds; 1915, 316,-
4O6 pounds; 1916, 377.575 pounds and
1917, 407, ,141 pounds. The war brought
on an increased demand for Missouri
copper ore, and there was short ad-
vance, owing to this abnormal de-
mand, in the price per pound of the
mineral. A. T. EDMONTON,

Start the Bluegrass Pasture this Fall.

Show may a bluegra ss pasture be
started on fertile tillable land?" This
question is often asked of the Univer-
sity of Missouri College of Agriculture.
Perhaps the best reply will be found
in Extension Circular 66, by W. Q.
Etheridge.. He says:
Sow Timothy and bluegrass with
wheat in the fall, adding clover the
following spring. After two years Of
clover and timothy for hay, the land
is pastured and the bluegrass fills the
sod as the timothy disappears. The
acre rates of seeding should be
about to 10 pounds of timothy,
pounds of bluegrass, and 8 to 8 pounds
of clover, using highgrade seed. If il
should be desired to turn unusually
clean, fertile land into pasture, q soc
could be made somewhat more quick
ly by omitting the wheat and sowing
the grasses and clover without nurse
crop. In this case 10 to 10 pounds o.
bluegrass seed would be sown to the
acre.
On land too dry and poor for blue
grass, but which may produce a fail
! growth of other grasses, a mixture O
8 pounds Of redtop, 10 pounds o
orchard grass and pounds of alsik
clover is recommended. II cheaper
mixture 10 wanted the redtop seec
may be omitted.
On all types Of untillable land th'
spring seeding Of pastures almos
invariably gives better results thai
fall seeding, unless the soil Is so weed.
that fall seeding is necessary to Civ
the grass an early start in competi
tion with the spring growth of weeds

less actually, regularly, and lawfully

From Near Arcadia Heights.

Everything out here is very quiet
since the Baptist Assembly closed.
We miss the "honk" of the car and
the great number of people that went
daily to and from the Assembly
grounds, which for two weeks looked
very much like a little city in the
forest primeval." But to- day there
are only two or three families remain
ing, and consequently everything now
assumes the aspect of Goldsnith's
"Deserted Village" X
The Assembly was success from
beginning to ending, and not thing
occurred to mar the peace and happi-
ness of those who attended. We have
been reliably informed that great i'm
provements will be made in the way
of new and improved buildings be-
fore the next Assembly convenes, and
that the time of holding the meetings
has been changed back to August for
next year. That ,is as it should be-.
People generally complimented ]. D..
Vance for the manner in which he
conducted the ground management,
and for the condition of the grounds,
buildings, tents and water supply.
The Lopez. store, under the very able
management of s. P. Ringo, did very
much for the comfort and convent
ence of those who camped on the
grounds.
The prospects for farmers out here
are certainly very gloomy. The
drouth which has prevailed here since
May, with only one or two light show
ers, is yet unbroken. Corn is COM
plete failure and millet will not be
worth Icutting. This, in face of the
fact that crops were a complete fail
ure last year, Will make it very hard
on the farmers again the coming win
tor, particularly those who were SO
unfortunate as to have no hay on
their farms. But for the man who has
to pay cash rent. and will not raise
anything at all, it is very serious
proposition, indeed. Only two good
crop years in nine years is the record
in this valley. But they say where a
man loses thing is the proper place
to look for it. Truly, Gods ways are
mysterious and hard for one to un-
derstand, and often put ones faith al
most to the limit of its tension.
Harry Dinger recently purchased a
buggy and also fine COW.
Jno. 7 Patterson made trip last
Thursday to his farm, near Roselle.
Corn in that locality will be failure,
but the hay crop was never better,
and there will be considerable mast
mostly post oak and black oak.
MolIie Burdeck, of st. Louis, spent
two weeks, not long ago, visiting her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. T. Patterson.
Mrs. Teschmacher and daughter,
Miss Florence, will return to ST. Louis
this week.
John !Hendley last week sold his
farm near here. Consideration,
$1,000. We did not learn the name of
the purchaser, but his family has re-
moved thereto.
While the last General Assembly
failed to pass any law that would ma
terially benefit the teachers (from q
financial point of view we note with
pleasure that they did pass compul-
sorry school law that will produce tan
gible results. Every boy and girl be-
tween. the age OF six and fourteen
must attend school every day unit

This law will be enforced to the let
