ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT
A GREAT HOME NEWSPAPER,
FULL OF TIMELY FEATURES

Zone of Americas really great
newspapers" is the way the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat is often referred to.
Noted for its cleanness, fairness and
thorough reliability, it has for sixty
six years been the favorite daily and
Sunday "home paper" of the Missis-
sippi Valley.
Besides the complete and always de-
pendable news service of the Asso-
ciated Press, the Globe Democrat has
over a thousand special correspond
ents, and the wireless, cables and leas-
ed telegraph lines direct from the
New York Herald.
Every day the Globe-Democra en-
tertains its vast army of readers with
many high-grade features and timely
special articles, written by famous ex-
perts and of interest to every mem
Der of the family.
Women find this big st. Louis pa
per an inexhaustible source Of valu-
able information. Interesting fiction,
clever verse, illustrated fashion fore
casts, the newest housekeeping ideas,
practical helps for the woman in bus
mess life, authoritative advice from
great physicians on how to keep well
and the correct building of child char
acter-these are some of the reasons
why the Globe-Democrat is an abso-
lutte necessity in the modern home.
The latest, most complete and most
accurate financial and market news,
hot off the wire, is another Globe
Democrat speciality of the greatest
value to and widely appreciated by
bankers, merchants, farmers and all
investors.
During the baseball season the
Globe-Democrat every day prints two
pages devoted to keeping the "fans'
in complete touch with all the doings
in the big world of sports.
Elsewhere in this issue our readers
will find an announcement giving full
information as to how you can ar
range to have the st. Louis Globe
Democrat delivered by carrier or mail
to your home.

TOLD IN DOLLARS AND CENTS

"Of what good is farm bureau 2"
Every time am asked that ques-
ton, / have to give different ans
wer. My estimates grow bigger and
better all the time.
A live organization of this kind is
bound to do better and better work.
AS they see what good farm bu-
reau means to them and their COM
munities the members put more and
more into it and of course get more
and more out of it. Much depends
upon the kind of man they hire as
county agent. But whole lot of the
responsibility for increasing the prof
its of the farm and of improving coun-
try life by means of the farm bureau
belongs to the individual himself
Edward .Zahn, Marshall, Mo.
A saline county farmer invested two
hours time gong TO, at, and return
ing from, farm bureau meeting
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1919-03-21

When he closed his accounts for the
year he found that he had made $500
by listening to, and following, the
recommendation of speaker at the
conference.
One of MissOuri's most experienced
county agents who was advocating
the sowing of soy beans with corn
for silage and for hogging down was
the speaker. Before going home from
that meeting the farmer bought
enough soy bean seed to plant sixty
acres to the combination. That fall
he bought sos Wyoming lambs, av-
eraging 65 pounds, for which he paid
18c pound.
"That system of fall feeding was
the biggest find ever made in all my
farming experience" he recently de-
clared. e
eve started the lambs on sheaf
oats, cut sixty acres of our corn by
hand and let the flock have the run
for So days of that field and 20 acres
of standing corn. The lambs perhaps
ate $500 worth of corn, but the rest
of their 20 pounds of gain apiece was
made from the soy beans and a little
rape broadcasted in the. fields at the
time of the last cultivation.
1--WE made considerably over $500
out of our experiment with soy beans
and we have been growing them ever
since. We learned at that farm bu-
reau meeting two fundamentals in
soy bean culture. The first is that in
oculation is necessary, and the second
that the variety 'is' important"

line, adding to the attractiveness Of
the building.
A floor plan of this bungalow also
is shown In the illustration and study
of 1t will bring out many points of in-
terest to those who are considering
what type of home they win build.
Living Room Is Large.
The front entrance door opens into
the living room, the room that makes
a bungalow such a favorite. This
room is 10 by ID feet, an exceptionally
good, size, not being too large to de-
tract from the idea of coziness and not
SO small that there Is feeling Of be-
ing shut in. At one end is an open
fireplace, another important bungalow
feature, and on either side of it are
low bookcases, with windows above.
Opening off the living room through
a wide space between colonnades, is
the dining room, also of good size and
equally attractive in its arrangement.
The room is Ia by IL feet, with an
alcove by 51a feet, the end wall of
which is formed by windows. How at
tractive this nook may be made can be
imagined by the woman with artistic
tastes. Between the aleove and the
wall at the rear of the dining room is
a seat with windows above.
The Kitchen, the workroom of the
home, is designed with view to eff
cheney. 1t is IL by 10 feet, but large
pantry, 6 by feet adds to its con-
venience. In the latter is work ia
BILE, five shelves, and space for the ice
box, the latter having an opening to
the back porch so that it may be
iced without coming indoors. The
basement stairs open off one corner of
the kitchen.
A T-shaped hall connects the dining
room and the two bedrooms. The front
bedroom is 10Y by 10 feet and has two
windows opening to the terrace and
one at the side, allowing for excellent
ventilation. The rear bedroom has
similar windows, but is slightly larger
than the front room, being 141a by 10
feet. Between is an unusually large
bathroom for this size house.
Much Closet Space.
Closet space always is feature that
appeals to the housekeeper. In this
bungalow, it will be noticed, are three
large closets, one off the living room
and one off each Of the bedrooms. The
bathroom, too, has considerable space
that can be 50 used.
In the hands of an experienced build
er, this design may be changed to suit
the exposure Of the house, or to suit

ANOTHER CAVE AT PICHER

A cave broken into at the Jefferson
mine is the latest addition to the Ok
lahoma ore caves and has some fea-
lures that make it unlike those of the
Laclede and Mahutska.
Small caves had been cut into in OPP
ening up the Jefferson ground where
the pumps had worked for twelve
months to lower the water to the 230
and 240-fOot levels. The drifts from
the field shaft missed connection by
six feet with the one driven south
west from the mill shaft and contin-
ued ten feet in ground almost barren
for seventy feet.
The night shift broke through thin
dirt into the opening four feet high,
just above the water level. The min
ers' lamps lib up a chamber lined with
lead and zine, the curving roof re-
flecting in the pool of water that COW
ers the floor, clear fifteen feet without
pillar in a chamber forty feet wide,
seventy feet in length. At the farther
end was another opening leading on
into the structure
An odd feature is the slabs of lead,
jack and tiff that bridge the watery
floor. One slap is almost level. This
pixies bridge is made up of lead and
zinc ore dotted with tiff and is fifteen
feet long, five feet wide and from two
to fourteen inches thick.-Zinc and
Lead journal.
This is the mine of which G. NJ.
London, of this city, is general mana
ger. There are also a number of To-
cal stockholders in this company,
among them being W. L. Hensley, P.
A. Shaw and G. M. London. I

the ideas Of the owner. For instance,
1t will be an easy matter to transpose
the bedrooms and bath and the living
and dining ROOMS and kitchen, If the
bungalow should face SO this arrange
ment would be more desirable.
For either city, town or country, a
bungalow Of this type will be found
to make comfortable home, one that
will grow on the owner the longer he
lives in 1t. How coy will be the liv-
ing room with the open fire in the win
ter, and how much comfort can be de-
rived from the terrace In the summer
can easily be Imagined.
A bungalow home, built from this
design will meet the needs of the fam
lily that wants pretty, comfortable,
convenient house--one that will not be
very costly to build. And when It is
finished and the owner has moved In
the family will feel justifably proud of
their new bungalow home-"a home of
our own"

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT

In memory of the departed Archer,
Archie C. Kirkendall, the Committee
on Resolutions submit the following:
For the first time since our organ
ization of the Pennington Homestead
No. 1905, the Almighty has seen fit
to call from our midst the soul of our
departed Archer, Archie C. Kirken-
dali, who, having completed the de-
signs written for him on life's tressle
board, has passed through the portals
of Eternity, and entered the Grand
Homestead of the New Jerusalem, to
receive the reward, the marvellous and
amazing white stone with new name
written thereon.
And whereas, Archer Archie C. Kir-
kendall has been called from earth's
labor to that everlasting peaceful
sleep, the Homestead has lost true
and faithful Archer of our beloved
Order, the parents dutiful son, the
wife faithful companion and the lit
tie children a beloved father; there
fore be it
Resolved, that the Pennington
Homestead No. S905, of Pennington,
Missouri, in testimony of her loss,
that the charter be draped in mourn
ing for a period of thirty days and
these resolutions be spread upon the
minutes of our Homestead and that
we extend to the bereaved family our
sincere sympathy and coincidence in
their deep affection and distress, also
that a copy of these resolutions be
sent to the bereaved family and also
be published in the Pennington News
papers.

Bungalow Solves Problem.
The bungalow goes far toward solv-
ing the problem of home for the
small family of limited means. But,
what is most important, bungalow is
both comfortable and attractive
home.
The accompanying illustration shows
an exceptional bungalow, both from ex.
terror appearance and interior arrange
ment.
In building home, place where
one will live for considerable number
Of years, its exterior appearance is Inn
portant. How will 1t fit In with the
other homes on the street, or how will
1t lend itself to its surroundings? Can
1t be made an outstanding home, one
that will be source Of pride to its
ownerf
The illustration answers both Of
these questions in favor of this bun
galow. 1t is artistic without being
ginger-bready; 1t is comfortable ap-
pearing and is susceptible to having
its attractiveness enhanced by flower
beds and flower boxes.
The bungalow is 80 by 80 feet. The
terrace extends across 80 feet Of the
frontage and is z feet deep. The slight

trance door breaks the straight root
